Wisdom went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Friday's loss to the Cardinals.

Wisdom was a bright spot in a 14-5 loss, launching a three-run home run in the first inning, then driving home another run on a single in the seventh. The third baseman is up to 12 home runs and 31 RBI through 49 games. He has a decent chance of surpassing his career highs of 28 homers and 61 RBI, both of which he recorded during his breakout 2021 campaign.

Vosler went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 15-6 win over the Marlins.

Vosler went yard in the sixth inning for his second extra-base hit in three games since he was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on June 1. The utility man has been solid when called upon this year, slashing .295/.373/.545 with three homers, seven RBI, seven runs scored and a pair of doubles in 51 plate appearances. He's also been caught stealing in his lone attempt.

Machado went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run, two runs scored and a walk in Friday's 7-0 win over the Brewers.

Machado has just two homers in his last 24 games, but he's batting (.311) in that span, which is actually a decrease from his hot start to 2022. The third baseman went deep off Brewers ace Corbin Burnes in the fourth inning to extend the Padres' lead to 5-0. Machado is up to a .344/.421/.566 slash line with nine homers, 32 RBI, 38 runs scored, seven stolen bases, 13 doubles and a triple through 50 contests.

Vosler was added to the lineup for Friday's game against the Marlins.

The 28-year-old was initially slated to get a day off Friday, but he'll start at the hot corner and bat ninth after Tommy La Stella (undisclosed) was a late scratch. Vosler went 1-for-4 with a double, a run, a walk and two strikeouts over the last two games.

Longoria (shoulder) is starting at third base and hitting sixth Friday against the Marlins.

He appeared off the bench as a pinch hitter in back-to-back games after suffering a shoulder injury Tuesday. Longoria is hitting .310 with five home runs in his last 10 games.

Farmer is not in the starting lineup for Friday's matchup with the Nationals.

Farmer will get a breather Friday after starting seven straight contests, going 11-for-24 with four homers, 11 RBI, seven runs and a stolen base in those games. Matt Reynolds will get the start at shortstop and bat ninth as the Reds face Josiah Gray on the mound.

Peterson went 2-for-3 with one triple, three RBI, one run scored and one steal in Thursday's victory over San Diego.

Peterson walked in his first at-bat and proceed to swipe second, registering his seventh steal of the season. He reached base again in his second plate appearance with a single, but his game-tying, three RBI triple in the bottom of the ninth was the biggest swing of the night for either team. Peterson eventually scored the game-winning run on an Andrew McCutchen single. Over his last six games, Peterson has eight hits in 16 plate appearances, including two doubles, two triples and eight RBI.

Madrigal is not starting in Friday's game versus the Cardinals.

Madrigal will get a day off after starting three straight games following his return from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, going 3-for-9 with two runs over those contests. Christopher Morel will get the start at second base while Rafael Ortega enters the lineup in center field and bats second Friday.

Farmer went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a stolen base in an 8-1 win Thursday over Washington.

After being retired in his first two plate appearances, Farmer hit safely in his final two at-bats. He capped off the scoring of a five-run seventh inning with a three-run homer off Josh Rogers. The 31-year-old has been on a tear lately, hitting .452/.489/.810 over his last 12 contests.

Longoria went 0-for-1 in a 3-0 loss Thursday in Miami.

Longoria pinch hit for designated hitter Tommy La Stella in the eighth inning, facing lefty Steven Okert. After being removed from Tuesday's game and sitting out Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, the veteran flew out in his lone plate appearance Thursday. It's unclear when he will return to the field, but it's possible he will be able to contribute with the bat as the designated or pinch hitter in the near term.
