  • Ryan O'Hearn 1B | PIT

    Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn: Gets breather against lefty

    O'Hearn isn't in the Orioles' lineup Saturday against the Reds, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    O'Hearn will stay put in the Orioles' dugout as the Reds send out lefty Andrew Abbott to start on the mound. Adley Rutschman will serve as Baltimore's DH while O'Hearn rests, allowing James McCann to start behind the plate.

  • Colton Cowser CF | BAL

    Orioles' Colton Cowser: Sitting against lefty

    Cowser isn't in the Orioles' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    With lefty Andrew Abbott set to take the mound for Cincinnati, the lefty-hitting Cowser will begin Saturday's contest on the bench. His absence will open a spot for Ryan McKenna to start in left field while batting ninth.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Sitting out third straight

    Urias isn't in the Orioles' lineup Saturday against the Reds, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Urias saw an initial uptick in playing time after Jackson Holliday was optioned back to Triple-A Norfolk, but Saturday will mark his third consecutive game taking a backseat to Jordan Westburg. Urias is slashing just .167/.184/.250 across 49 plate appearances this season, and his lack of offensive production has likely caused him to slide down on the Orioles' depth chart.

  • Josh Naylor 1B | SEA

    Guardians' Josh Naylor: Idle against lefty

    Naylor isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday against the Angels.

    The left-handed Naylor will take a seat as fellow left-hander Reid Detmers starts on the hill for Los Angeles. David Fry will take over at first base and bat fourth.

  • Guardians' Estevan Florial: Sits down against lefty

    Florial isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday against the Angels.

    The left-handed bat of Florial will step out of the lineup Saturday as southpaw Reid Detmers prepares to start for the Halos. His absence will move Bo Naylor into the DH role while Austin Hedges draws a start at catcher.

  • Will Brennan RF | SF

    Guardians' Will Brennan: Resting versus lefty

    Brennan isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday versus the Angels.

    Left-hander Reid Detmers will toe the slab for Los Angeles on Saturday, meaning the lefty-hitting Brennan will begin the game in the dugout. Ramon Laureano will fill the void in right field and bat fifth.

  • Luis Rengifo LF | SD

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Battling illness

    Rengifo is out of Saturday's lineup versus Cleveland due to an illness, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Rengifo was reportedly feeling under the weather Friday as well, but he won't be able to play through his illness Saturday. Ehire Adrianza is filling in as the Angels' third baseman and could continue to do so if Rengifo is forced to miss any additional games.

  • Alec Marsh RP | KC

    Royals' Alec Marsh: Making rehab start Sunday

    Marsh (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Omaha on Sunday.

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro hinted Friday at sending Marsh out on a rehab assignment, and the 25-year-old righty will now officially build back up with Omaha. Starting Sunday would put Marsh in line to return to Kansas City's rotation Friday against the Angels, though it's unclear if the Royals will want to keep him in the minors for multiple starts.

  • Dylan Moore 1B | PHI

    Mariners' Dylan Moore: Lifts second homer Friday

    Moore went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Astros on Friday.

    The fifth-inning blast with Luke Raley aboard extended Moore's hitting streak to three games while also serving as Moore's first homer since Opening Day. The utility man also coaxed his average back over the Mendoza Line for the first time since April 25, but his .682 OPS still has plenty of room for improvement.

  • Mauricio Dubon LF | ATL

    Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Sits Saturday

    Dubon isn't in the Astros' lineup Saturday against the Mariners, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Dubon went 0-for-3 with a sac fly during Friday's series opener, and he'll now get a day off for Saturday's contest. His absence will move Joey Loperfido into center field while Jon Singleton starts at first base.
