Mateo went 1-for-1 with two walks, a two-run home run and two stolen bases in Saturday's 4-2 win over the White Sox.

Getting the start in center field and batting ninth, Mateo looked like he might be the latest Baltimore outfielder to land on the injured list when he appeared to hurt his arm in a collision with Heston Kjerstad in the eighth inning. Mateo stayed in the game, however, and proved he was OK by swiping his second bag of the game in the bottom of the frame. That capped a huge performance from the utility player that included his first long ball of the campaign, a fifth-inning shot off Davis Martin, and his first game with multiple walks in over a year. Mateo has started five of the Orioles' last nine games -- three in center field, one in left and one at shortstop -- and he's gone 5-for-17 (.294) over that stretch with seven of his 14 stolen bases on the season.

Arias went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a two-run double in Friday's 7-5 win over the Angels.

With the game tied 5-5, Arias gave the Guardians their first and only lead in the seventh inning, when his double to center field brought Bo Naylor and Daniel Schneemann home. Saturday was Arias' 11th multi-hit performance and ninth game with multiple RBIs this season. The 25-year-old shortstop is slashing .242/.303/.368 with two steals, four home runs and 24 RBI in 202 plate appearances this season.

The Mariners selected Young's contract from Triple-A Tacoma, and he will start at second base and bat eighth against the Twins on Saturday.

Young is set to make his major-league debut after a strong start to the season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .278/.391/.463 with four steals, five home runs and 26 RBI in 245 plate appearances. With J.P. Crawford cemented as the Mariners' starting shortstop, Young will compete with Dylan Moore and Miles Mastrobuoni for regular playing time at the keystone.

Walls is not in the Rays' starting lineup against the Astros on Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Walls will begin Saturday's contest on the bench while Jose Caballero starts at shortstop and bats in the leadoff spot. Walls has slashed .228/.313/.263 with three steals and four RBI in 67 plate appearances since the beginning of May.

The Rockies designated Schunk for assignment Saturday.

The move corresponds with the Rockies selecting Keston Hiura's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque while optioning Michael Toglia to Triple-A. Schunk saw regular work with the Rockies in late April before landing on the 10-day injured list due to a groin injury. He made 11 major-league appearances for Colorado and went 6-for-28 with one double and a 27.6 percent strikeout rate over that span.

The Marlins reinstated Edwards (back) from the injured list Saturday.

Edwards won't be in the lineup for Saturday's game against San Francisco, but he is now fully healthy after sitting out since May 14 with a strained back. After a successful 2024 campaign, the 25-year-old has regressed a bit this year, slashing .263/.337/.292 through 194 plate appearances.

Allen (hand) is not in Atlanta's starting lineup against Boston on Saturday.

Allen will be out of the lineup for a second straight game after he was struck in the hand by a pitch in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against the Phillies. Luke Williams will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

Meidroth is not in the White Sox's starting lineup against the Orioles on Saturday.

Meidroth will get a breather after starting in each of the White Sox's last 13 games, slashing .315/.373/.407 with five steals, one home run and two RBI in 59 plate appearances during that span. Vinny Capra will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

Story went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-1 win over Atlanta.

Friday's homer snapped a 15-game drought and was just his second long ball over the last 34 games. He was productive through the first three weeks of the season, but the expected impact of a healthy Story's bat hasn't played out overall. He's batting .219 with a .593 OPS and 23 RBI over 55 games this season.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 2-0 win over the Marlins.

Adames singled in the fourth inning before recording his first stolen base since April 30. The 29-year-old shortstop has struggled of late, slashing .139/.205/.194 with three RBI, two runs scored, a triple and a 30.8 percent strikeout rate across 39 plate appearances in his last 10 games. Overall, he owns a .209/.287/.332 slash line with 30 runs scored, 25 RBI, 16 extra-base hits -- including five homers -- three stolen bases and a 26.3 percent strikeout rate across 247 plate appearances this season.
