Guerrero went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Cubs.

The slugging first baseman won the game for the Blue Jays when he drove a Matthew Boyd curveball over the fence in left-center field in the seventh inning. Guerrero is up to 20 homers on the season, and seven of them have come in his last 18 games -- a stretch in which he's slashing a massive .347/.420/.722 with 13 runs and 14 RBI.

The Rays are expected to select Seymour's contract from Triple-A Durham ahead of Friday's game against the Giants, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The 26-year-old Seymour will be making his MLB debut after being selected in the 13th round of the 2021 draft. Seymour has shown big power throughout his minor-league career and has slashed .263/.327/.553 with 30 home runs, 87 RBI, 70 runs scored, one stolen base and a 38:114 BB:K across 443 plate appearances at Triple-A this season. With Jonathan Aranda (wrist) still on the 10-day IL, Seymour could see regular playing time at first base or designated hitter.

Rumfield is slashing .370/.450/.575 with five home runs, an 11.4 percent walk rate and a 12.8 percent strikeout rate in his last 32 games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

A 25-year-old lefty-hitting first baseman, Rumfield doesn't have a clear path to playing time in the majors, but he's doing everything he can to make noise in his second season at Triple-A. Rumfield has the hit tool to profile at the bottom of the defensive spectrum, but he may not have the power, as he has a career .443 slugging percentage and has a .189 ISO this season while being an old-for-the-level first baseman.

France will start at first base and bat fifth in Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Before being excluded from the lineup for Wednesday's 4-1 loss, France had started in each of the Blue Jays' previous six contests and went 10-for-22 with five doubles, one walk, five runs and two RBI. Though he's gotten off to a nice start to his tenure with the Blue Jays after being acquired from the Twins on July 31, France could fade into more of a part-time role once the Blue Jays get George Springer (concussion) back from the 7-day injured list.

Manager Aaron Boone said after Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Minnesota that Goldschmidt was unavailable off the bench due to a right knee injury, Max Goodman of NJ.com reports.

The Yankees are still in the process of evaluating Goldschmidt's injury, but the Yankees believe that the veteran first baseman is dealing with a low-grade sprain, per Brendan Kuty of The Athletic. Boone suggested that a stint on the injured list could be in the offing for Goldschmidt, which would likely result in Ben Rice settling in as New York's everyday first baseman and Austin Wells regaining the primary catcher role.

Mountcastle went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Mountcastle tied the game with a 394-foot leadoff blast in the seventh inning and recorded his first multi-hit effort since returning from the injured list Friday. Since being reinstated, he's gone 4-for-17 with two homers and a 2:5 BB:K while starting in five consecutive games. On the season, the 28-year-old is slashing .245/.283/.368 with four homers, 17 RBI, 21 runs scored, and one stolen base across 219 plate appearances.

Pasquantino went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Nationals.

The first baseman did his best to get the Royals back into the game after they fell behind 5-0 in the top of the first inning, driving in Kansas City's first run with a groundout in the bottom of the first and then adding a three-run shot off Jake Irvin in the fourth. Pasquantino has three homers and 11 RBI in the last four games, and over 19 contests since his last day off July 22, he's batting .240 (18-for-75) with seven of his 22 long balls on the season, plus 23 of his 80 RBI.

Kurtz is not in the Athletics' starting lineup against the Rays on Wednesday.

Kurtz will begin Wednesday's game on the bench after starting in the Athletics' last 14 games, with Tyler Soderstrom shifting over to first base and batting in the cleanup spot. Over that 14-game span, Kurtz has gone 13-for-50 (.260) with 10 runs, two doubles and three RBI.

Toro is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Houston.

After starting at first base in each of the first two games of the series, Toro will begin Wednesday's festivities on the bench. Romy Gonzalez is handling first base and batting sixth for the Red Sox.

Goldschmidt is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Twins.

Goldschmidt had started both of the first two games of the series, but his playing time versus right-handers has been trending down in the second half. The Yankees will turn to Ben Rice at first base and Austin Wells at catcher in the series finale against Minnesota.
