Donaldson went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles and a walk Monday in the Twins' 3-2 win over the Orioles in 10 innings.

Donaldson hasn't left the yard since May 17, but he's at least tapping into some more gap power of late. He now has accrued three doubles over his last two games, bringing his season-long total up to 10 through 168 plate appearances.

Madrigal went 2-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 3-1 win over Baltimore.

Madrigal reversed an 0-for-9 run with a fifth-inning single, then was a key figure in a two-run seventh inning that provided the margin of victory. He tripled home Tim Anderson and scored the insurance run on Yoan Moncada's single. Sunday's multi-hit effort was his fourth in the last six games, during which he's 10-for-22 (.455) with two extra-base hits, two RBI and three runs scored.

Moncada went 2-for-3 with a run scored in the 3-1 win over the Orioles in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader.

Moncada was the only batter in Game 2 of the doubleheader to have multiple hits. He scored on Jose Abreu's home run in the fifth inning. Moncada totaled three hits, a home run, two RBI, three runs and two walks in the two games Saturday. The 26-year-old is slashing .284/.419/.420 in 169 plate appearances. The home run in Game 1 was Moncada's first since April 29.

Devers went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Marlins.

With his little brother, Jose, getting the start at shortstop for Miami, Devers showed him how it was done, collecting his fifth multi-hit effort in the last 12 games. The 24-year-old is hitting .326 (15-for-46) over that stretch with five homers, 11 runs and 13 RBI.

Moncada went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, two walks and an additional run scored in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Orioles.

Moncada reached base in three of his four plate appearances and made the most of his lone knock, as he blasted his fourth long ball of the campaign during the sixth inning off reliever Shawn Armstrong. Moncada ended a poor stretch in the opening game of the twin bill, as he had gone 2-for-14 in his previous four contests.

Urshela will sit Saturday against the Tigers.

Urshela is technically sitting for the second time in three days, though he did start the nightcap of Thursday's doubleheader against the Blue Jays after sitting for the afternoon game. DJ LeMahieu will shift over to third base in his absence, with Mike Ford starting at first.

Walls isn't starting Saturday's game against the Phillies, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Walls will be out of the lineup for the second time in the last three games after he went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a walk Thursday. Joey Wendle will shift to shortstop while Yandy Diaz starts at third base.

Nevin was recalled by the Orioles on Friday and will make his big-league debut against the White Sox, batting eighth and playing first base.

Nevin joined the Orioles last season in the Mychal Givens trade. He had some decent numbers in the Rockies' system prior to the move but isn't a highly rated prospect and hit just .212/.260/.470 in his first taste of Triple-A action in 17 games for Norfolk this year.

Moncada is not in the lineup Friday against Baltimore.

Moncada is 2-for-14 with four walks and five strikeouts over the past five games, and he'll head to the bench for the third time this season. Danny Mendick will start at the hot corner Friday for the White Sox.

Toro (oblique) was activated from the 7-day injured list and will be in the lineup Friday for Triple-A Sugar Land, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

The 24-year-old landed on the minor-league injured list in early May with a strained right oblique, but he'll make his season debut for Sugar Land on Friday. Toro appeared in six games for the Astros in April and went 1-for-12 with one walk.
