Baez (thumb) will not be in Friday's lineup against the Royals, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Baez was originally in the lineup Thursday, though he experienced discomfort in his thumb and was subsequently scratched. He'll focus on treatment Friday, with the potential for a Saturday return. Harold Castro started at shortstop and hit eighth in Baez's absence, and he is likely to occupy the same position Friday.
