Keith went 3-for-3 with an RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Batting leadoff, Keith did an excellent job setting the table before getting lifted for a pinch hitter in the sixth inning. Prior to then, the young infielder delivered his third three-hit effort of the season, all of which have come this month. The Tigers are rumored to be exploring third basemen leading up to Thursday's trade deadline, which would impact Keith's role, but for now he's the team's top option at the hot corner, at least against righties.

Astros general manager Dana Brown said Wednesday that Alvarez (hand) could be activated from the 60-day injured list in mid-August, Michael Schwab of The Ice Box Insider reports.

Alvarez is working his way through a hitting progression and could be ready to face live pitching soon. He is sure to require a rehab assignment, and any timeline for Alvarez's return has to be considered approximate, given how his recovery has gone. The slugger has been sidelined since early May with a right hand fracture.

Springer (head) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

After Springer was struck on the left ear flap of his helmet by a sinker in Monday's 11-4 loss to Baltimore, he ended up sitting out both ends of a doubleheader Tuesday. He'll remain out of the lineup for a third straight game Wednesday, but Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca relays that Springer's condition is improving, and the 35-year-old was spotted doing some running on the field prior to the contest. Springer isn't likely to be available off the bench Wednesday, but with a team off day on tap Thursday, he could be ready to rejoin the starting nine for Friday's series opener versus the Royals.

Manzardo went 3-for-4 with two homers, a walk and three RBI in Tuesday's win over the Rockies.

Manzardo posted the second multi-homer game of his career with a two-run blast in the third followed by a solo shot in the sixth. He's now hit safely in 11 of his last 12 games, slashing .357/.429/.762 with five homers and 13 RBI over that span and is now up to 18 home runs and 46 RBI for the season.

Rooker went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Mariners.

Rooker's third-inning blast off Logan Evans was more than enough offense for the Athletics in this contest. Rooker had gone 10 games without a homer, hitting just .179 with two RBI and a 4:14 BB:K in that span. The slugger is up to 22 long balls this season while maintaining a .272/.347/.496 slash line across 110 contests. He's added 61 RBI, 67 runs scored, 24 doubles, three triples and three stolen bases while serving as the primary designated hitter.

Springer (head) remains out of the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader in Baltimore.

Springer was forced out of Monday's 11-4 loss to the Orioles after being hit on the head by a pitch and will end up sitting out both legs of Tuesday's doubleheader. He reported improvement prior to the first game Tuesday and should be considered day-to-day for the time being. Bo Bichette will get a start at designated hitter for the Blue Jays in Tuesday's nightcap.

Springer (head) is not in the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader in Baltimore.

Springer exited Monday's 11-4 after he was hit by a pitch in the head, so it's not a surprise he's sitting out the first game of Tuesday's twin bill. He is feeling better, per Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca, but it's not clear if Springer is in consideration to join the lineup for the second game of the day. Davis Schneider will serve as Toronto's designated hitter in the first game of the twin bill.

Springer exited Monday's 11-4 loss to the Orioles in the top of the ninth inning after he was hit by a pitch in the head, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Springer took a 96-mile-per-hour sinker from Kade Strowd off the side of the helmet. Manager John Schneider and the Toronto training staff immediately ran onto the field, and Springer was able to get up under his own power before walking off with the trainer. Leo Jimenez pinch ran for Springer, who went 0-for-3 with one walk and one run scored prior to his exit.

Keith is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Keith will join fellow left-handed hitters Zach McKinstry and Kerry Carpenter on the bench while southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez takes the hill for Arizona. With Keith sitting out, Jahmai Jones will serve as Detroit's designated hitter.

Alvarez (hand) took approximately 50 swings off a tee and faced soft-toss pitching in the batting cage during his most recent workout Friday, MLB.com reports.

The Astros have remained mum on a potential timeline for Alvarez's return from the 60-day injured list, but general manager Dana Brown confirmed Sunday that the slugger is "ramping up his workload" and should soon be ready to face live pitching, per Sean O'Leary of SI.com. Alvarez has been on the IL since May 5 due to a right hand fracture, though inflammation and soreness appears to be the greater concern for the 28-year-old at this point rather than the broken bone.
