Arias underwent surgery Thursday on his fractured right and is expected to be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, Chris Assenheimer of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Arias previously made his MLB debut with the Guardians on April 20, going 1-for-8 with an RBI and two runs scored between a pair of doubleheader games against the White Sox before being sent down to Triple-A Columbus a day later. He'll likely remain on Columbus' 7-day injured list through late June while he recovers from surgery, making it unlikely he returns to the big leagues until the second half of the season.

Vaughn was placed on the injured list with a bruised right hand Thursday.

Vaughn hasn't played since last Friday after getting hit in the hand by a pitch, but his injured list assignment can only be backdated by three days. He'll now miss at least one more week. AJ Pollock should continue to start in left field in his absence, with Gavin Sheets and Adam Engel splitting time in right field. Danny Mendick was activated to take his place on the roster.

Manzardo is on the 7-day injured list at High-A Bowling Green with an undisclosed injury.

Through five games, it seemed like Manzardo was primed to be a big breakout prospect, as he had six hits (including three doubles), eight walks and three strikeouts. He last played April 15, and it's unclear how much longer he will be sidelined.

Dalbec went 0-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored in Wednesday's 10-5 extra-inning loss to the Angels.

With lefty Reid Detmers on the bump for the Angels, Dalbec returned to the starting lineup but watched his batting average dip to a season-low .141. The 26-year-old corner infielder will continue to platoon with Franchy Cordero at first base, but prospect Triston Casas is nipping at his heels at Triple-A Worcester.

Abreu went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run in a 4-3 victory versus the Cubs on Wednesday.

Abreu kicked off the scoring in the game with a solo shot to left field in the first inning, and he scored the final run of the contest on an AJ Pollock single in the sixth. The veteran first baseman had gone nine straight games without a long ball or an extra-base hit of any sort. Wednesday also marked Abreu's first multi-hit performance since April 10.

Manager Tony La Russa said that Vaughn (hand), who is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Cubs, will "most probably" be placed on the injured list ahead of Friday's series opener against the Red Sox, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

The 24-year-old has been sidelined since being hit by a pitch on the right hand last Friday, and he hasn't recovered as hoped over the past few days. It's unclear exactly how long Vaughn is expected to be sidelined, though the fact he's been considered day-to-day to this point could mean he won't require a lengthy absence. Adam Engel should see more opportunities in the outfield while Vaughn is out.

Vaughn (hand) isn't starting Wednesday against the Cubs, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Vaughn was hit by a pitch on his right hand in Friday's loss to the Angels and will be out of the lineup for a fifth straight game. Whether the 24-year-old will be available off the bench remains to be seen, but AJ Pollock will shift to left field while Adam Engel starts in right.

Naylor isn't starting the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Padres.

Naylor drew the start in Wednesday's matinee and went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI. Franmil Reyes will serve as the designated hitter while Ernie Clement enters the lineup at the hot corner in the second game.

Santana was placed on the 10-day injured list with right ankle bursitis Wednesday, retroactive to May 3.

Santana was slated to miss a second consecutive game Wednesday after being scratched from Tuesday's lineup, and he'll get additional time to recover since he's dealing with some inflammation. Hunter Dozier and Ryan O'Hearn should see increased playing time at first base, while Emmanuel Rivera was recalled from Triple-A Omaha on Wednesday.

Santana (ankle) isn't starting Wednesday against the Cardinals, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

The 36-year-old was scratched from Tuesday's lineup due to right ankle soreness, and he'll be excluded from the starting nine for a second straight game. It's not yet clear whether Santana will be available off the bench, but Ryan O'Hearn will start at first base and bat fourth.
