Goldschmidt went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a 9-6 win against Boston on Friday.

Goldschmidt's long ball was a 346-foot shot to right field in the sixth inning. It was his first home run (and just his second hit) so far this month; the veteran slugger has gone 2-for-18 with seven strikeouts and a stolen base through five June games. Goldschmidt is still slashing a productive .320/.376/.478 on the campaign, and he's added seven homers, 29 RBI, 40 runs and five thefts across 62 contests.

Buxton is not in the Twins' starting lineup against the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Buxton will take a seat after going 0-for-9 with three walks and two strikeouts over his last three games. Willi Castro, Harrison Bader and Trevor Larnach will man the outfield for Minnesota.

Correa (back) is starting at shortstop and batting third against the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Correa will return to Minnesota's lineup following a three-game absence due to back tightness. The 31-year-old shortstop has slashed .275/.318/.463 with four home runs and 11 RBI in 85 plate appearances since the beginning of May.

Dingler is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Cubs on Saturday.

Dingler will get a breather for the second time in three games while Jake Rogers starts behind home plate and bats eighth. Dingler has slashed .346/.382/.519 with two home runs and 11 RBI in 55 plate appearances over his last 15 games.

Keith is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Cubs on Saturday.

Keith will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-3 in Friday's 3-1 win. Kerry Carpenter will serve as the designated hitter and bat third while Riley Greene, Parker Meadows and Wenceel Perez man the outfield for the Tigers.

Jones blasted a pinch-hit solo home run in Friday's 3-1 win over the Cubs.

Appearing off the bench in the eighth inning in place of Kerry Carpenter to face a lefty reliever, Jones delivered his first home run of the season in his first 2025 MLB at-bat. The outfielder, who was playing well for Triple-A Toledo, had his contract selected earlier Friday to provide some depth in the majors. Jones offers some degree of upside based on his minor-league performance, though he likely won't see enough regular playing time to make a huge impact.

Devers went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 9-6 loss to the Yankees.

Devers brought the Red Sox a bit closer with a two-run shot in the seventh inning, but that's where an attempted comeback from an early 7-0 deficit ended. For Devers, the homer was his first in 13 games and extended a hit streak to five games. He was one of the hottest hitters in MLB for much of May, but the designated hitter entered Friday's contest with a .195 average (8-for-41) over the previous 11 games. Devers has 13 home runs and 56 RBI through 65 games this season.

Mayer went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's 9-6 loss to the Yankees.

The Red Sox were out of this game early, falling behind 7-0, but Mayer's fifth-inning homer -- a no-doubter -- sparked a rally that turned a blowout into a close game. It was Mayer's first MLB homer, which came one game after he logged is first RBI as a major leaguer.

Corbin (3-5) took the loss Friday, giving up two runs on five hits over eight innings as the Rangers fell 2-0 to the Nationals. He struck out two without walking a batter.

The veteran lefty was locked in against the team with which he won a World Series ring back in 2019, but Corbin got no run support. He tossed a complete game on 89 pitches (60 strikes). After posting an ERA north of 5.00 in four straight campaigns before leaving Washington, Corbin's having an impressive comeback in Texas, delivering a 3.52 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 43:18 K:BB over 61.1 innings. He'll look for his first win since May 14 in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next week in Minnesota.

Garcia went 1-for-3 in Friday's 2-0 loss to the Nationals.

It was a rough night for the Rangers' offense, which managed just two hits and had one runner reach scoring position. The one positive takeaway was Garcia, who hit safely for a fourth consecutive game after taking a multi-game "mental break" amid a season-opening slump.
