Stanton isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.

Stanton will get a chance to catch his breath Saturday after going 2-for-4 with a home run in Friday's series opener. While he rests, Aaron Judge will serve as the Yankees' designated hitter, with Jasson Dominguez, Trent Grisham and Cody Bellinger in the outfield.

Ohtani didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Orioles, allowing three hits and a walk over 3.2 scoreless innings. He struck out five.

He lasted five innings for the first time in 2025 over a season-high 87 pitches in his last trip to the mound, but Ohtani had his workload scaled back a little in this one, getting the hook after 70 pitches (44 strikes) despite striking out the final two batters he faced. Through 12 starts since being cleared to return to the mound, Ohtani has a 3.75 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 49:8 K:BB through 36 innings as the Dodgers stick to a plan that should have him free of any restrictions by the postseason. He's remained an MVP-caliber hitter through it all, and over 632 plate appearances this year he's delivered a .989 OPS, tops in the National League.

Devers went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and a walk Friday in an 8-2 win over the Cardinals.

Devers clubbed his 31st homer of the season and his 16th as a member of the Giants. The star infielder now has six long balls in his last nine games as well. Devers is looking to wrap up the year on a high note -- he's slashing a robust .298/.397/.628 with 12 big flies, four doubles and 26 RBI over his last 141 trips to the plate since the beginning of August.

The Diamondbacks transferred Smith (quadriceps) to the 60-day injured list Friday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Smith's season is over after suffering a strained quad earlier this week. The lefty-hitting outfielder and first baseman appeared in just 87 games this season, slashing .258/.362/.434 with eight home runs, 28 RBI, 17 runs scored, two stolen bases and a 41:92 BB:K across 288 trips to the plate.

Ohtani will serve as the Dodgers' starting pitcher for Friday's game in Baltimore.

Ohtani was scratched from his previously scheduled start Wednesday against the Pirates due to an illness, and manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that the 31-year-old would rejoin the rotation Monday versus the Rockies. However, Ohtani has been moved up to Friday instead, and he'll also continue to serve as the Dodgers' designated hitter and leadoff batter. Tyler Glasnow had been slated to start Friday's series opener, but he'll presumably now take the ball Saturday instead after being scratched.

Yelich (back) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

Yelich's back flared up before Wednesday's game against Philadelphia, and he'll be out of the lineup Friday for a third straight game due to the issue. Expect Milwaukee to take it day-by-day with the 33-year-old outfielder, but considering Yelich's history of back injuries, the Brewers likely won't rush him back. Jake Bauers will fill the DH spot Friday while Isaac Collins, Jackson Chourio and Sal Frelick fill the outfield from left to right.

Manzardo went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 loss to Tampa Bay. He was also hit by a pitch.

Jose Ramirez and Manzardo belted back-to-back home runs to lead off the ninth inning, but that's where the Guardians' comeback stalled. The homer was Manzardo's 25th of the season and fourth in the last seven games. Earlier in the year, the lefty-hitting Manzardo started against right-handers only, but now manager Stephen Vogt is using him against lefties, too. Manzardo started the last three times the Guardians faced a southpaw starter as the club still has postseason hopes.

Larnach went 3-for-5 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's 11-8 loss to the White Sox.

Larnach's steal was his first since May 28 versus the Rays, and it was his first attempt since he was caught in a July 4. While he won't light things up on the basepaths, the 28-year-old has swung a hot bat lately. He is 13-for-24 (.542) over his last six games, logging five multi-hit efforts in that span. Overall, Larnach is up to a .258/.330/.415 slash line with 16 home runs, 56 RBI, 56 runs scored, three steals, 20 doubles and one triple over a career-high 125 games this season.

Alvarez went 4-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, a second RBI and two total runs scored in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Yankees.

Alvarez has pummeled Yankees pitching over the last two games, going 8-for-10 with three extra-base hits and three RBI in that span. The slugger struggled to find his timing right after being activated from the injured list after a lengthy absence due to a hand injury, but he's bounced back quickly with four multi-hit efforts over his last five games. He's now batting .273 with an .811 OPS, five homers, 25 RBI, 14 runs scored and one stolen base across 158 plate appearances this season.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that Ohtani's (illness) next start as a pitcher will come Monday at home against the Rockies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Ohtani was scratched from a scheduled outing Wednesday in Pittsburgh because he was under the weather, and he won't return to the bump until Monday. The 31-year-old will continue to hit until then, as he is in his usual designated hitter and leadoff spots for Thursday's contest against the Pirates.
