Neto went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and one RBI in Friday's 5-4 win over the Mariners.

Neto got on base on an error in the first inning but was caught stealing. He then delivered an RBI single in the third and swiped second, logging his first successful steal since May 21. The shortstop has hit safely in nine of his last 10 games, going 10-for-44 (.227) in that span. He's providing well-rounded production overall, batting .270 with an .818 OPS, 10 home runs, nine steals on 12 attempts, 24 RBI and 34 runs scored over 44 contests.

Betts went 3-for-4 with a double in Friday's 5-0 loss to the Cardinals.

Betts recorded three hits for the fourth time this season, but he wasn't able to cross home plate as the Dodgers were blanked for the fourth time this season. Betts was diagnosed with a fractured toe Monday, but he has gone 7-for-14 with three runs scored and one RBI since.

Bichette went 1-for-4 with a two-run single in Friday's 6-4 win over the Twins.

Bichette struck out in his first two plate appearances, but he got the better of Bailey Ober in the fifth, when his single to center field brought Ernie Clement and Andres Gimenez home. That single extended Bichette's hitting streak to 10 games, and over that span he has gone 13-for-40 (.325) with four home runs and 12 RBI.

X-rays and a CT scan on Volpe's left elbow came back negative after he was pulled from Friday's game against Boston, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Volpe took a pitch off his elbow during the second inning, though it doesn't seem like he suffered any structural damage as a result. The Yankees may elect to give him a day or two off to recover, but a trip to the IL likely won't be necessary.

Volpe was removed from Friday's game against the Red Sox with a left elbow contusion.

Volpe took an 89-mph changeup off his elbow in the second inning of Friday's contest. He remained in the game initially but was eventually replaced in the fourth. The Yankees are still awaiting the results of imaging on Volpe's elbow.

Henderson isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Henderson will get a breather during Friday's series opener after going 3-for-13 with a homer and five strikeouts during Baltimore's last series against the Mariners. Jorge Mateo will fill the vacancy at shortstop and bat ninth.

Rainer will undergo season-ending surgery after dislocating his right shoulder during Single-A Lakehead's win over Daytona on Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

The 19-year-old shortstop suffered the injury while diving back to first base on a pick-off attempt. After receiving multiple opinions, the injury was determined to be severe enough to necessitate surgery, but Rainer is expected to be fully healthy for the start of spring training. He'll end the season with a .294/.383/.452 slash line with nine steals, five home runs and 22 RBI across 149 plate appearances in Single-A.

Lindor (toe) isn't part of the starting nine for Friday's game against the Rockies.

Lindor is dealing with a broken right pinkie toe and isn't expected to require a stint on the injured list. However, he's not feeling well enough to start Friday, so Ronny Mauricio will fill in at shortstop. It's unknown when Lindor will be back in action, as it's entirely up to his pain tolerance. Per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, manager Carlos Mendoza said Friday that he wouldn't be surprised if Lindor returned sometime this weekend.

Bogaerts (shoulder) is starting at shortstop and batting sixth against the Brewers on Friday.

Bogaerts was out of the lineup against the Giants on Thursday while nursing a sore left shoulder. However, the issue doesn't appear to be a serious one as he's back in the lineup for Friday's series opener. The veteran shortstop has slashed .233/.311/.311 with seven steals, two home runs and 13 RBI across 119 plate appearances since the beginning of May.

Correa (back) is not in the Twins' starting lineup against the Blue Jays on Friday.

Correa will miss a third consecutive game due to back tightness, but he could be available as a pinch hitter in Friday's series opener. Brooks Lee will start at shortstop and bat fifth.
