Adames went 2-for-3 with a double in a loss to the Astros on Thursday.

Adames may be starting to get a beat on big-league pitching, as factoring in Thursday's tally, he now has three multi-hit efforts over the last five games. The 22-year-old prospect has hit a solid .260 overall in June, contributing a trio of extra-base hits (two doubles, one home run) along the way. Already in possession of the everyday shortstop job, Adames should get plenty of reps throughout the rest of the season with which to continue honing his diverse offensive skill set.

Anderson went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases in a 2-1 loss to Minnesota on Thursday.

Anderson was also caught stealing once Thursday, making him 17-for-22 in steal attempts on the season. The 25-year-old is slashing .251/.315/.437 with 43 runs scored and 24 extra-base hits. He surpassed last season's total of 15 stolen bases and should have no problem beating his 17 homers as well.

Correa (back) will be placed on the 10-day disabled list prior to Friday's game, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

This move will be backdated to Tuesday so Correa will be eligible to return from the shelf against the White Sox on July 6. The shortstop was held out of Tuesday's game after going 1-for-3 on Monday, and hasn't been able to take the field since. It doesn't appear as though he will require anything longer than the minimum stay on the DL, so expect to see him back in action next weekend. Look for Marwin Gonzalez to serve as the shortstop in his absence while Tony Kemp and Jake Marisnick earn a little more playing time in the outfield.

Correa (back) is out of the lineup Thursday against the Rays, Marc Topkin of The Tampa Bay Times reports.

Correa will sit for a third consecutive contest as he continues to deal with a stiff back. Marwin Gonzalez will start in his absence yet again. Continue to consider him day-to-day for the time being.

Correa (back) is not in the lineup against Toronto on Wednesday.

Correa will remain on the bench for a second straight day due to back stiffness. Marwin Gonzalez will man the shortstop position in his place while Tony Kemp Kemp gets a start in left field. Consider Correa day-to-day ahead of Thursday's series opener in Tampa Bay.

Adrianza went 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's loss to the White Sox.

Adrianza smacked a solo home run -- his fourth of the season -- in the third inning before plating another in the fifth with a single. The 28-year-old hasn't typically been much of a standout at the plate, but he's enjoying a solid June; in 63 at-bats in the month, he's slashing .270/.324/.524 with three homers and nine RBI.

Correa is being held out Tuesday with what manager A.J. Hinch is terming "back stiffness," Hunter Atkins of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Correa does not appear to be dealing with any sort of serious setback, but the sore back does leave his status day-to-day moving forward, and it could cost him further action with the Astros playing an early afternoon game Wednesday. Those hoping to include Correa in Wednesday's lineups will want to check for an update on his status when the Astros release their lineup for Wednesday's contest several hours prior to first pitch.

Correa is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Blue Jays.

Correa's numbers are slightly down from last season, but he's still hitting a very solid .268/.352/.480 with 13 homers in 73 games. Marwin Gonzalez will start at shortstop in his place.

Gordon went 2-for-5 with a two-run single and a stolen base in a win over the Orioles on Monday.

The productive leadoff man saw his 10-game hitting streak snapped on Sunday, but he was right back to filling out the box score Monday. Gordon has demonstrated a penchant for timely hitting recently as well, parlaying eight hits into seven RBI over his last six games.

Bichette went 3-for-4 with a home run, a pair of doubles and a stolen base Monday for Double-A New Hampshire in its 8-6 loss to Portland.

Bichette is now up to 85 hits on the season, besting injured teammate Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (kneecap) for the Eastern League lead. The three extra-base knocks also boosted Bichette's slugging percentage to .458, roughly on par with the mark he posted at High-A Dunedin in the second half of 2017. Bichette's lackluster May seems to be a distant memory at this point, as the shortstop's renewed power in combination with his impressive baserunning (24-for-30 success rate on stolen-base attempts) could soon put him in line for a promotion to Triple-A Buffalo.
