Bauers isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

The lefty-hitting Bauers will grab a seat on the bench Friday with the lefty-throwing Sean Manaea set to throw the first pitches for New York. Gary Sanchez will serve as Milwaukee's designated hitter instead while batting eighth.

Gallo is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

It's southpaw Ranger Suarez on the bump for the Phillies, so the lefty-hitting Gallo will begin the festivities on the bench. Juan Yepez is playing first base for the Nationals while Stone Garrett gets a start at designated hitter.

Singleton is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Cleveland.

The lefty-hitting Singleton will take a seat Friday against southpaw Joey Cantillo and the Guardians. In his place, Victor Caratini will play first base and bat fifth.

Rizzo is absent from the lineup for Friday's game versus the Pirates.

Rizzo had been in the lineup for each of the previous four tilts, reaching base eight times, but he'll get a day off Friday. Oswaldo Cabrera is at first base and hitting ninth for the Yankees.

The Astros recalled Dezenzo from Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

He's taking the roster spot vacated by fellow rookie Shay Whitcomb, who was sent down. Dezenzo has slashed only .212/.255/.308 with one home run in 17 games with the Astros this season. It's possible he'll get a little playing time versus lefties over the final weekend.

Busch (triceps) will start at designated hitter and bat fifth in Friday's contest against the Reds.

Busch missed one game with a sore triceps as a result of a hit-by-pitch, but he's feeling well enough to play after Thursday's team off day. Cody Bellinger is at first base in this one while Kevin Alcantara handles right field.

Toglia went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, and two RBI on Thursday against the Cardinals.

Toglia snapped out of a very short slump, as he entered Thursday's contest with only one hit across 14 at-bats in his last four games. He's enjoyed a breakout season and has picked things up in the second half, maintaining a .340 wOBA and .782 OPS with 35 runs scored and 21 RBI across 62 games.

Freeman (ankle) was seen on crutches and in a walking boot following Thursday's game against the Padres and will not return during the regular season, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Freeman rolled his ankle attempting to avoid a tag at first base on an off-target throw, but the Dodgers said he avoided structural damage. He is expected to be ready for the postseason.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 10-8 loss to the Rockies.

Goldschmidt went back-to-back with Lars Nootbaar in the first inning. This long ball ended a 19-game homer drought for Goldschmidt, who hit just .197 (13-for-66) in that span. The first baseman is up to 22 homers on the year, but his .241/.299/.403 slash line represents career-low numbers across the board. He's added 62 RBI, 69 runs scored and 11 stolen bases across 152 games.

Freeman exited Thursday's game against the Padres with an apparent ankle injury, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

Freeman was attempting to avoid a tag at first base and rolled his ankle in the process. He walked off the field under his own power but immediately went to the clubhouse. The severity of the issue is unclear, though it wouldn't be a surprise for the Dodgers to rest him in hopes of a postseason return -- particularly if they can clinch the NL West on Thursday.
