Fermin is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Boston.

It will be Luis Campusano doing the catching. Fermin has made four starts to Campusano's three behind the plate thus far, and a similar playing time breakdown seems likely to continue.

Gorman is not in the lineup for Friday's tilt against the Tigers.

The Cardinals have faced two left-handers this season and Gorman has been on the bench both times, so he looks to be in a clear platoon. Ramon Urias will grab the start at third base and bat cleanup for St. Louis.

Pages is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in Detroit.

Ivan Herrera is getting the start at catcher, so Pages will take a seat. Pages is 3-for-15 with one home run and a 0:4 BB:K in his first five games this season.

Wetherholt is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Detroit.

Left-hander Framber Valdez is taking the mound for the Tigers, so it's a sensible spot to give the lefty-swinging Wetherholt his first day off. Thomas Saggese will cover second base for the Cardinals.

Winn (undisclosed) will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Friday's game versus the Tigers.

Winn was involved in a car accident Wednesday prior to the Cardinals' off day Thursday, but he emerged uninjured and won't have to miss any games. The shortstop is just 4-for-25 with one stolen base and a 2:5 BB:K in his first 27 plate appearances this season.

Wiemer is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Dodgers.

The scorching-hot Wiemer will get a day off after starting each of the previous four contests. Daylen Lile, Jacob Young and James Wood will form the Nationals' outfield trio in the team's home opener.

Tawa entered Thursday's game in the eighth inning to play left field after Jordan Lawlar (wrist) was removed from a 17-2 loss to Atlanta.

Lawlar was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the seventh inning but stayed in the game to run the bases. Tawa entered in the top of the eighth and was hitless in his lone plate appearance. X-rays on Lawlar's wrist came back negative, but he'll undergo a precautionary CT scan Friday. Lawlar's availability for Friday's game is unclear. Should he miss any time, Tawa or Jorge Barrosa will likely replace him in the outfield.

Devers went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in a 7-2 win over the Mets on Thursday.

Devers accounted for the final run of the contest with a solo shot to center field in the sixth inning -- his first homer and first RBI of the season. The slugger now has three multi-hit games across seven contests, though he's also gone hitless three times. Overall, Devers is slashing .259/.333/.407 through 30 plate appearances.

Susac went 3-for-3 with a walk Thursday in a 7-2 win against the Mets.

Susac won the Giants' backup catcher role in spring training, but this was the first time he had an opportunity to start (he did enter as a defensive replacement Wednesday). Susac singled in his first MLB plate appearance in the second inning and went on to reach three more times on two additional singles and a walk. Patrick Bailey is entrenched as San Francisco's starting catcher, so Susac probably isn't going to see extensive playing time.

Peterson (0-1) took the loss against San Francisco on Thursday, allowing six runs (five earned) on nine hits and two walks while striking out five batters over 4.1 innings.

The Mets gave Peterson a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but he quickly gave that back plus more, as the Giants responded with three runs in the bottom half of the frame. Things didn't get any better for Peterson from there -- he yielded two more runs in the third and was charged with one more following his departure in the fifth. Peterson did manage to fan five batters, but his overall line was pretty destructive for fantasy managers who deployed him. This was certainly a letdown for Peterson after he shut out Pittsburgh across 5.1 innings during his season debut March 28.
