Contreras went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-5 win over the Brewers.

Contreras padded the Cardinals' lead to 8-4 with a 397-foot home run in the ninth inning. The 33-year-old has been scorching in June, hitting safely in 11 of 13 games while tallying eight extra-base hits, 14 RBI and nine runs scored. For the year, he's slashing .255/.340/.422 with nine homers, 44 RBI, 34 runs scored and two steals across 286 plate appearances.

The White Sox optioned Elko to Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Elko had been working as Chicago's primary first baseman prior to the demotion and slugged four homers with eight RBI and a stolen base over 18 games, though he posted a mediocre .601 OPS and 38.1 percent strikeout rate. His spot on the 26-man roster has been taken by Ryan Noda, who was called up from Charlotte in a corresponding move and could take over as Chicago's top option at first base.

The White Sox recalled Noda from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Noda was DFA'd by Boston on June 9 and was subsequently claimed off waivers by the White Sox. Chicago initially optioned the first baseman to Triple-A but has now brought him to the major-league roster. In a corresponding roster move, fellow infielder Tim Elko as optioned to the minors. Noda is starting at first base and batting seventh in his White Sox debut Saturday.

Arcia isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Arcia went 1-for-5 in Friday's 12-4 loss to extend his hitting streak to four games. After starting at shortstop Friday, Arcia will give way to Ryan Ritter on Saturday. Ritter projects to serve as the Rockies' primary option at the position while Ezequiel Tovar (oblique) is on the shelf, but Arcia could continue to see steady at-bats while also making starts at first base, third base and designated hitter.

Hiura isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Hiura will get a day off Saturday after getting hit by a pitch twice in Friday's contest. Kyle Farmer will fill in as Colorado's first baseman and bat eighth.

Olson went 3-for-4 with a double, three runs scored and three RBI in Friday's win over the Rockies.

The first baseman was at the heart of a 12-run eruption by the Atlanta offense. Olson has hit safely in 13 of his last 15 games, slashing .291/.403/.527 over that stretch with two homers, 11 runs and 13 RBI as he puts a sluggish start to the season firmly behind him.

Encarnacion-Strand isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers.

In seven games since returning from the injured list, Encarnacion-Strand has gone 9-for-19 (.310) with three home runs, seven RBI and five runs scored. The Reds will give him a chance to rest Saturday while Spencer Steer starts at first base and Gavin Lux mans third.

Torkelson isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

Torkelson will rest his legs Saturday after going 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers, five RBI and four runs scored across his last seven games. His absence will put Colt Keith at first base and open a spot in the lineup for Wenceel Perez to bat seventh while covering left field.

France went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 10-3 loss to the Astros.

The first baseman got hold of a Steven Okert slider in the ninth inning, on a night when all of Minnesota's offense came on solo homers. It was France's fifth long ball of the year and his first since May 23, ending an 18-game drought, but he stayed productive despite the lack of power by batting .338 (23-for-68) with nine runs and 10 RBI during that stretch.

Tellez went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Friday's 7-2 win over the Guardians.

Tellez is batting .258 (8-for-31) over 10 games in June, with three of his hits in that span going over the fence. The first baseman is up to 11 homers, 27 RBI, 18 runs scored and a .214/.257/.453 slash line through 58 contests. His power has often come in bunches this season, but he's just two long balls shy of matching his total from each of the last two years, so he's doing just fine in a strong-side platoon role.
