Clarke (hip) was pulled from his baserunning session Friday after experiencing a setback, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Clarke was only able to make it down to first base twice before the A's put an end to his scheduled activities. He's slated to undergo further evaluation to determine his new timeline for return, though a setback at this stage in the year could spell an early end to the 25-year-old's season.

Baldwin was taken out of Friday's game against the Guardians due to left hip soreness.

Baldwin had gone 0-for-2 with a strikeout before the hip issue caused his early removal in the sixth inning. If he ends up needing to miss any time beyond Friday, Michael Taylor would be the favorite to pick up starts in center field.

Rogers was removed from Friday's game against the Blue Jays with left toe discomfort, Brendan Mortensen of MASNSports.com reports.

Rogers made it through five innings Friday, allowing one unearned run on three hits and four walks while striking out six batters, before his toe issue cut his start short. It's currently unknown whether the 27-year-old southpaw will be able to make his next start, but the Orioles may offer an update on his status in the near future.

Skubal was removed from his start Friday against the Marlins with left side tightness, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Skubal had given up three earned runs on four hits and logged two strikeouts in 3.1 innings before calling a trainer out to the mound in the fourth. He's due to undergo imaging Saturday to determine the severity of his injury, per Jeff Passan of ESPN.com, at which point the team will have a better idea of his availability for his next start -- tentatively scheduled to come against Cleveland on Thursday.

Adell (illness) isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Adell will miss out on the starting nine for the fourth time in the Angels' last five games while he continues to battle through a case of vertigo. Chris Taylor will fill the void in right field and bat second.

Neto (hand) isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Neto seemed to have trouble with his hand after taking a swing Thursday, so the Angels will sit him down Friday as a precaution. Oswald Peraza will pick up a start at shortstop as a result, opening up first base for Logan Davidson.

Baez was removed from Friday's game against the Marlins after fouling a ball off his head, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

An awkward swing from Baez in the second inning resulted in the ball deflecting off his forehead, immediately prompting his removal from the game. The Tigers will almost certainly evaluate the 32-year-old for a concussion; meanwhile, Trey Sweeney will take over as Detroit's shortstop.

Soderstrom was scratched from the lineup for Friday's game versus the Reds due to groin tightness, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Soderstrom's groin first began bothering him during his pinch-hit appearance Wednesday, and it appears to still be an issue after a day off Thursday. He'll now receive another day to recover while Carlos Cortes steps in to cover left field during Friday's series opener.

The Mariners designated Castillo for assignment Friday.

Castillo's run with the Mariners will end after just nine days, during which he gave up one unearned run in three innings across three appearances. Casey Legumina will come up from Triple-A Tacoma to fill the vacancy in Seattle's bullpen.

The Mariners recalled Legumina from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

Legumina has fired 5.2 shutout innings while striking out eight batters since being sent down to Triple-A in mid-August. He'll now return to Seattle to take on a middle-relief role and replace Jose Castillo, who was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
