Mountcastle isn't part of the Orioles' lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Mountcastle will get a much-deserved rest day Saturday, taking a seat for the first time in 18 games. Ryan O'Hearn will fill in at first base, while Adley Rutschman slides to DH and Maverick Handley slots in behind the plate. Mountcastle's 11-game hit streak will be preserved unless he enters off the bench.

O'Neill (shoulder) isn't part of Baltimore's lineup for Saturday's game against Washington, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

O'Neil was scratched from Friday's lineup with discomfort in his left shoulder that stemmed from a session in the batting cage earlier this week, and he'll be idle once again Saturday. Ramon Laureano, Cedric Mullins and Heston Kjerstad will fill the outfield from left to right.

Caminero isn't part of the Rays' starting nine for Saturday's game against the Marlins, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Caminero will get the day off Saturday, yielding his spot at third base to Jose Caballero against Miami starter Sandy Alcantara. In his last 10 appearances, Caminero is 9-for-37 (.243) with a pair of home runs.

Sweeney isn't part of the lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto.

Sweeney had been in the lineup for each of Detroit's last five matchups against left-handed starters, but he'll yield to Zach McKinstry at shortstop against southpaw Eric Lauer. The left-handed-hitting Sweeney is slashing .259/.323/.378 on the season.

Santander isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers due to left hip soreness, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Santander's hip reportedly began bothering him after a swing Thursday, and it helps explain why he sat out Friday's contest as well. His absence will move Vladimir Guerrero into the DH spot Saturday, putting Ernie Clement at first base and opening up second for Michael Stefanic.

Dingler isn't part of the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto.

Dingler started each of Detroit's last five games, and he'll get a rest day Saturday against Eric Lauer and the Blue Jays. In Dingler's place, Tomas Nido will catch and bat ninth. In 127 plate appearances, Dingler is slashing .270/.299/.434.

Kirk isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Detroit.

Kirk will get a day to reset after going 0-for-8 with a strikeout over his last two games. Tyler Heineman will catch for Eric Lauer instead and bat eighth.

Lukes (migraine) will start in left field and bat seventh Saturday against the Tigers.

A migraine caused Lukes to make an early exit from Friday's contest, but he seems to be feeling better Saturday. The 30-year-old outfielder has been on a roll since the start of May, slashing .313/.405/.531 with two homers and eight RBI in 12 games.

Baldwin isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

Baldwin will step out of the starting nine Saturday after going 1-for-4 in Friday's contest. Michael Taylor will pick up a start in left field and bat ninth.

Rojas isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

Rojas will get a chance to catch his breath Saturday after going 2-for-4 during Friday's 13-3 loss. Lenyn Sosa will start at the keystone while Rojas sits.
