Hoeing (hamstring) is scheduled to throw three innings with Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Hoeing has made a pair of appearances at Triple-A after resuming his rehab assignment following a brief shutdown in late May. However, he's allowed four runs (three earned) with one strikeout across 2.2 innings with Jacksonville and will require at least one more outing before being activated.

Cabrera (shoulder) allowed two runs (one earned) on one hit and one walk with four strikeouts across three innings for Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday. He's scheduled to pitch again Tuesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Although Cabrera took the loss Wednesday, he turned in a quality showing in his first rehab appearance. The 26-year-old is expected to throw four innings or roughly 60 pitches Tuesday as Cabrera gets stretched out and ready to rejoin the big-league rotation. It's unclear if he'll require another appearance with Jacksonville before being activated.

Bart (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Bart will see game action for the first time since being placed on the 10-day IL on May 28, a significant step forward in his recovery from a Grade 1 thumb sprain on his glove hand. Once he's cleared to rejoin the Pirates, Bart should push Jason Delay out of the catching mix.

Blackmon (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals.

It's the third straight contest he's missed as he deals with right hamstring tightness. The Rockies have been bullish on Blackmon's chances of avoid the injured list, but he'll have to be ready soon for that to happen. Hunter Goodman is at designated hitter and Sean Bouchard is in right field Friday.

Amador (oblique) is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Nationals.

Amador had to be pulled from Thursday's game against the Dodgers with a mild oblique issue. It seems at this point to be more of a day-to-day situation, but between the injury, his slow start and Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) being due back soon, Amador looks like an easy drop in most redraft leagues.

The Marlins selected Sanchez's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday

Miami acquired Sanchez from the Cubs on Wednesday and will quickly bring him up to the active roster as the team looks for another option behind the plate. Christian Bethancourt was designated for assignment in a corresponding move, leaving Nick Fortes -- who's slashing .159/.194/.225 this season -- as Sanchez's only competition at catcher.

Jones (illness) will start in left field and bat sixth in Friday's game against the Nationals.

Jones missed two contests because he was under the weather, but he'll give it a go Friday. The 26-year-old is 5-for-14 with a 2:8 K:BB over six games since returning from the injured list.

Wall isn't part of the starting lineup Friday against the Yankees.

Wall will give way to Adam Duvall in left field for a second straight game. Jarred Kelenic and Ramon Laureano fill in the rest of the outfield.

Stephenson is out of the lineup Friday against Boston.

Stephenson will give way to Luke Maile behind the dish Friday for the fourth time in five games. Stephenson owns a .723 OPS across 213 plate appearances this season.

Martini (hand) isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox.

Martini was held out of Wednesday's game due to a hand injury and isn't in the starting nine Friday despite a team day off in between. While the injury doesn't seem to be severe, Martini will yield DH duties to Jeimer Candelario for Friday's series opener.
