Harris has a six-game hitting streak going at Double-A Frisco, but he's still sitting on a modest .258/.294/.290 line to open the campaign.

The power he showed in the minors last year has yet to make an appearance in Double-A, and Harris is also sitting on career-worst walk and strikeout rates (6.1 and 29.4 percent, respectively) early on. That said, his spectacular 2021 results -- .327/.401/.542 with 20 homers and 25 steals in 110 games across Low-A and High-A -- certainly earned him some patience. There's no need to downgrade his stock based on these early returns.

Dalbec is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Travis Shaw will get a look at first base in the series finale, breaking a streak of five consecutive starts for Dalbec. During that five-game stretch, Dalbec went 3-for-20 at the dish, dropping his season average to .167.

France went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run in a 7-2 win over the Astros on Sunday.

France singled and scored in the first inning to open the scoring and crushed a three-run long ball off Houston starter Jose Urquidy in the fourth to expand Seattle's lead to six runs. The 27-year-old enjoyed a successful weekend against the Astros, going 5-for-12 with two extra-base hits, and he is now slashing an impressive .289/.400/.500 for the season.

France went 2-for-4 in a loss to the Astros on Saturday.

France provided nearly all of the offense for a moribund Mariners lineup Saturday night with his second multi-hit effort of the season. The 27-year-old has hit safely in four of the last five games and sports a solid .265/.390/.412 slash line through his first 41 plate appearances of 2022.

Calhoun is not in the lineup Sunday against the Angels.

Calhoun will once again take a seat with the Rangers facing a left-handed pitcher in Jose Suarez. Eli White will start in center field Sunday, pushing Adolis Garcia to right.

Naylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Naylor started the past two games after being activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, but he'll take a seat against San Francisco lefty Alex Wood. Franmil Reyes will move out to right field while Jose Ramirez serves as the designated hitter Sunday.

Vaughn is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

Vaughn is 8-for-23 with two homers, a double, six RBI and three runs through seven games this season, but he won't be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against Tampa Bay. Gavin Sheets will serve as the designated hitter while Adam Engel starts in right field.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Saturday against the Rays.

Abreu took Corey Kluber yard in the fourth inning to record his first homer of the season. It was his only knock of the game, and he entered Saturday having collected zero hits in his last 12 at-bats while striking out six times in that span. Though he's hitting only .200/.273/.367 through 33 plate appearances, Abreu has scored seven runs and collected four RBI.

Rizzo is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

Rizzo started the first nine games of the season but will take a seat for Sunday's series finale. DJ LeMahieu will man first base in his place while Gleyber Torres starts at the keystone.

Lowe went 3-for-4 in Saturday's loss to the Angels.

Texas managed only six hits as a team in the contest, with Lowe registering half of that total. The multi-hit performance was Lowe's fourth of the campaign in just eight games. He is batting .375 on the season and leads the Rangers with 12 hits thus far.
