Gordon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

Left-hander Andrew Heaney is starting for the Angels, sending Gordon to the bench. Robinson Cano will slide over to second base for the Mariners, with Ryon Healy earning the start at first base.

Adames is out of the lineup against Oakland on Saturday, Steve Carney of 620 WDAE reports.

Adames will receive a breather after going 1-for-3 with a pair of strikeouts during Friday's contest. In his place, Joey Wendle will start at shortstop while Brandon Lowe gets the nod at second base.

Ahmed went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles, a walk and a run in a 4-2 triumph over the Astros on Friday.

Ahmed has showed some solid gap power of late with five doubles over his last nine games, but he hasn't left the yard since he hit two home runs Aug. 4 against the Giants. That extended home-run drought has made it tough for fantasy owners in shallower settings to justify holding onto the shortstop, who doesn't offer standout production in any of the other four main rotisserie categories either.

Camargo (groin) is out of the lineup against Washington on Saturday.

Camargo will miss a third straight game with a groin injury as Charlie Culberson gets another start in his absence. The club was hopeful that Camargo would've returned to action for Friday's series opener, but he wound up spending the night on the bench in order to get some additional rest. Manager Brian Snitker appears to be stressing some precaution with the 23-year-old, which shouldn't come as a major surprise since the Braves are sitting pretty atop the NL East. Consider Camargo day-to-day heading into Sunday's series finale.

Reyes went 2-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Brewers.

Making his third start in the last five games, Reyes launched the first big-league homer of his career, pushing his slash line to .375/.474/.625 in seven games since his promotion. While he's not a big-name prospect for the Pirates, the 25-year-old appears to be holding down the short side of a platoon with Adam Frazier in left field, giving him some NL-only fantasy appeal for the stretch run.

Mondesi went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk, two additional runs, and a stolen base in Friday's victory over the Twins.

Hitting from the two-hole, Mondesi loaded up the stat sheet once again, as he's now collected a stolen base in three of his past four starts. He has also generated multi-hit outings in nine of his last 15 starts. Mondesi's recent hot streak has bumped his season average up to .286 to go along with eight home runs, 27 RBI and 23 steals over 221 plate appearances.

Arcia is out of the lineup against Pittsburgh on Friday.

Arcia wasn't listed in manager Craig Counsell's starting nine for the fifth time in the past seven games, as Jonathan Schoop once again gets the nod at shortstop. Dating back to Aug. 26, Arcia has gone just 7-for-33 (.212 average) with two RBI in his last 16 contests.

Camargo (groin) is not in the lineup versus the Nationals on Friday.

Camargo will remain on the bench for a second consecutive day after leaving Tuesday's contest with left groin tightness. He benefited from Thursday's scheduled off day but needs a little more time being returning to the starting nine. In his place, Charlie Culberson will handle the hot corner and bat fifth.

Bogaerts went 2-for-4 with a single, a double, one run and a stolen base in Thursday's win over the Blue Jays.

The stolen base was Bogaerts' seventh of the season, and he now has three multi-hit games in his last five appearances. The versatile shortstop owns a .291/.362/.524 slash line with 21 home runs, 93 RBI and 68 runs over 536 plate appearances this season.

Rojas went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against the Mets.

Rojas provided the only offense for the Marlins in the losing effort with a two-run shot in the third inning, his 11th home run of the season. Over 480 plate appearances in 2018, he has a .249/.295/.348 slash line with 39 runs, 50 RBI and six steals.
