Bour went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in a 5-3 win over the Rays on Saturday.

Bour homered for the second straight day since his recall from the minors, and he provided the Angels with a 4-0 lead with his opposite-field shot off Charlie Morton. He now has six homers on the season, and the Angels are hoping he can improve upon his .170/.267/.368 slash line.

Guerrero (hand) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against Houston, Alyson Footer of MLB.com reports.

Guerrero left Friday's contest after getting struck in the hand by a pitch. His X-rays came back negative, but he'll spend at least one day out of the lineup. He could be able to hit if his hand improves over the course of the day, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports, suggesting that he's not expected to miss too much more time. Brandon Drury will start at third base in his place.

Diaz went 3-for-4 with an RBI single, a double, a walk and two runs in a win over the Angels on Friday.

Diaz's hot streak at the plate continued Friday, with his multi-hit effort serving as his fourth in the last eight games. The slugging infielder now has 23 extra-base hits (12 doubles, one triple, 10 home runs) and 27 RBI on the campaign despite a recent 11-game stint on the injured list, and he's boosted his season average an impressive 37 points to .282 since June 4.

Dixon went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 13-4 loss to Cleveland.

Miguel Cabrera and Dixon went back-to-back in the second inning to make it 2-2, but Detroit's offense couldn't keep up from there. Dixon has been a pleasant surprise for the Tigers so far this season, as he's slashing .288/.305/.512 with seven home runs in 40 games. He slashed .178/.218/.356 with five home runs in 74 games with the Reds last year.

Voit went 2-for-2 with two walks and a solo home run in Friday's 10-1 loss to the White Sox.

He was one of the few Yankees to have any kind of success against Lucas Giolito on the night. Voit isn't hitting for the same kind of batting average he did in 2018, but his 17 homers and 45 RBI have helped keep the offense going while Giancarlo Stanton (shoulder) and Aaron Judge (oblique) have been on the shelf.

Guerrero left Friday's game against the Astros due to a left hand bruise.

Guerrero's X-rays came back negative, so the Blue Jays can breathe a sigh of relief. He'll be considered day-to-day moving forward.

Guerrero exited Friday's game against Houston after getting hit by a pitch on the hand, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Guerrero was able to jog to first base after getting drilled by a fastball and stayed in the game to run the bases, but he was removed in the bottom of the second frame. He's likely headed for X-rays to determine the extent of the injury. Eric Sogard entered the contest to take over at second base in Guerrero's place.

O'Hearn was optioned to Triple-A Omaha on Friday, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.

O'Hearn was 4-for-26 with 11 strikeouts since the start of June, dropping his season slash line down to .188/.286/.333. Lucas Duda and Cheslor Cuthbert should see time at first base for the Royals, at least until Hunter Dozier (side) returns from the injured list.

Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Thursday's win over the Orioles.

The Jays piled up 17 hits and 12 runs on the night, and Guerrero got his share. The rookie has now produced back-to-back three-hit games, pushing his slash line up to .268/.329/.463 with seven homers and 19 RBI through his first 39 big-league contests.

Abreu went 2-for-4 with a double in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Yankees.

Abreu, who leads the White Sox with 52 RBI, has gone six straight games without driving in a run, his longest such stretch of the season. His OPS (.796) is well off his career mark (.862), but Abreu's bat remains relevant due to his success with runners in scoring position (.902 OPS).
