Adames went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Guardians.

After tallying three hits in his return from a four-game absence Wednesday, Adames hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning of Thursday's matchup. The veteran shortstop has recorded at least one hit in each of his last four appearances and is batting .261 with five RBI, four runs scored, two home runs and a stolen base in 53 plate appearances this month. On the year, he's slashing .229/.288/.421 with 60 runs scored, 50 RBI, 20 long balls and five stolen bases across 493 PAs.

Jarvis is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Milwaukee.

Jarvis' playing time has been uneven lately, as this will be his third time on the bench in the last four contests, and two of them have come versus righties. The rookie infielder is just 3-for-35 at the plate in August, and Mauricio Dubon might be the preferred option at shortstop moving forward if Jarvis is unable to right the ship.

Triple-A Memphis placed Henderson on the 60-day injured list Wednesday due to a left elbow strain, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

The left-hander was reinstated from the 60-day IL on Aug. 9 after missing the first three months of the season due to a flexor strain, but he's down with another arm injury after making just one start for Memphis. Henderson posted a 2.59 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 134:51 K:BB across 132 innings at Double-A Springfield last year, but he's had a lost 2026 season. The severity of his current injury is unclear as he continues to be evaluated.

Okamoto went 2-for-5 with a double and a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Rays.

Getting another start at first base and batting fifth with Vladimir Guerrero (concussion) on the shelf, Okamoto got the Blue Jays on the board by ripping an Ian Seymour slider into the left-field seats to lead off the second inning. Okamoto has hit safely in six straight games, collecting two doubles and two homers during that stretch, and in his first MLB campaign he's delivered a .230/.302/.440 slash line with 26 home runs and 74 RBI in 124 contests.

Lukes went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Rays.

The 32-year-old outfielder led off the fifth inning by lofting an Ian Seymour changeup into the right-field seats, putting the Blue Jays in the lead for good. Lukes has been struggling overall in August, slashing .185/.206/.277 across 19 games with two of his seven homers on the season and six of his 24 RBI.

Cameron went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Thursday's win over the Rays.

Getting the start in left field and batting second, Cameron crushed a fifth-inning changeup that Ian Seymour left up in the zone, sending it an estimated 442 feet onto a catwalk in left field. It was the 29-year-old's first homer in three games since being added to the Blue Jays' roster. In 163 MLB games over parts of six seasons with four different clubs, the second-generation player has managed a .204/.261/.336 slash line with 12 home runs and 15 stolen bases.

Stone (shoulder) struck out five and allowed no hits and no walks over three shutout innings Thursday in a rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

The 27-year-old righty faced just one batter over the minimum, with a first-inning error by first baseman Ryan Ward denying him a perfect outing. Stone hasn't made an appearance for the Dodgers since 2024, undergoing shoulder surgery in October of that year and then experiencing a setback this spring, but he's putting himself in position to help the big club in some capacity down the stretch. He's started all three of his rehab appearances and has posted a magnificent 2.35 ERA, 0.52 WHIP and 13:1 K:BB over 7.2 innings. While the Dodgers may not have a spot available for him in the rotation, Stone could offer value in a multi-inning relief role.

Lopez (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Lopez is working his way back from left knee inflammation, which has kept him out for all of August. The veteran right-hander's last six appearances for Atlanta were as a starting pitcher, but he could be used as a reliever upon his return. If that happens, it might shorten his rehab assignment.

Gastelum is unscored upon in his last five appearances, logging a 12:1 K:BB over 6.1 innings during that span.

Gastelum was rocked for 15 runs (12 earned) with a 10:5 K:BB over 13.1 innings in his first 12 appearances in the majors. The rookie reliever has adjusted nicely, though, settling in as a valuable middle relief arm in St. Louis. Gastelum could move up the leverage ladder if he keeps up his recent form -- he has zero saves and just one hold so far. which came back on July 22.

Dubon went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

Getting the start at shortstop and batting seventh, Dubon kept the line moving on a night when the bottom of the order did most of the work for the Atlanta offense. It was the veteran utility player's first multi-hit performance since a four-hit effort Aug. 6, and over 54 plate appearances on the month he's produced a .294/.315/.333 slash line with two doubles, three steals, five runs and six RBI.
