Reds' Luke Maile: Hits IL
Mailey was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a herniated disc in his back.
Maile was removed from Thursday's contest with what was initially deemed a hip injury, but further evaluation revealed he's dealing with a herniated disc. The injury and subsequent IL stint means that Maile won't be eligible to return until after the All-Star break. Austin Wynns was brought up from Triple-A and should operate as Tyler Stephenson's primary backup.

White Sox's Korey Lee: Sitting out Friday
Lee is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Miami.
Lee and Martin Maldonado have now alternated starts at catcher over the last five games. It will be Maldonado behind the plate for Drew Thorpe on Friday.

Sean Murphy C | ATL
Braves' Sean Murphy: Not in Atlanta lineup
Murphy is not in the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Phillies.
Travis d'Arnaud will do the catching for Max Fried in the series opener. Murphy has a 1.050 OPS over his last 12 games and would seem to be a good bet to be in the lineup Saturday and Sunday.

Reds' Luke Maile: Out of lineup Friday
Maile (hip) is absent from the starting nine Friday against Detroit.
Maile was removed from Thursday's game in the seventh inning due to a hip injury and won't start Friday's contest. Early indications are that Maile's injury is minor, and it's unclear if he would have been in the lineup Friday even if healthy.

Ryan Jeffers C | MIN
Twins' Ryan Jeffers: On bench Friday
Jeffers is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Astros.
Jeffers will get a breather Friday after notching three hits, including a two-run homer and an RBI double, during Thursday's win over Detroit. Christian Vazquez will catch and bat ninth against Houston.

Edgar Quero C | CHW
White Sox's Edgar Quero: Jumps to Triple-A Charlotte
Quero was promoted to Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, MLB.com reports.
Quero maintained an .823 OPS with 12 home runs and 53 RBI across 292 plate appearances with Double-A Birmingham. It would be a surprise to see him reach the majors in 2024, though a debut early in 2025 is certainly realistic.

Gabriel Moreno C | ARI
Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Stays hot in win
Moreno went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's win over the Dodgers.
Moreno singled in his third trip to the plate before then swiping his first bag of the season. He added another single and a two-run double in his next two at-bats, giving the catcher his third multi-hit performance over his last four games. Moreno has also driven in two runs in three of his last four contests (dating back to June 21) and is riding a three-game hitting streak since returning from the injured list.

Reds' Luke Maile: Removed with side injury
Maile was removed from Thursday's game in the seventh inning after sustaining a side injury near his right hip, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
Maile said he was uncomfortable all day and felt pain on the follow-through of his swing that produced an inning-ending groundout in the bottom of the sixth frame. He remained in the game but was eventually removed the next inning. Maile described it as a nerve hurting on the lower right side of his hip. He received treatment following the game and reports feeling better already.
