Pasquantino went 1-for-3 with an RBI single in Saturday's 1-0 win over Detroit.

Pasquantino was responsible for the game's lone run in the eighth inning, when he smacked a single to left field that brought Nick Loftin home. Pasquantino will end the month of May with a .330/.375/.464 slash line with three doubles, four home runs and 13 RBI in 120 plate appearances.

France is not in Minnesota's starting lineup against Seattle on Saturday.

France is in the midst of an eight-game hitting streak, going 9-for-32 (.281) with one home run and seven RBI over that span. He'll begin Saturday's game in the dugout while Kody Clemens starts at first base and bats seventh.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that Harper (elbow) will try to swing a bat during batting practice before Saturday's game against the Brewers, Charlotte Varnes of The Athletic reports.

Thomson relayed that Harper's right elbow is more bruised, though the swelling has drastically improved since he was hit by a pitch against Atlanta on Tuesday. Harper is out of the Phillies' lineup for a fourth consecutive game, but the expectation is that the All-Star first baseman will avoid a stint on the injured list. Alec Bohm will start at first base and bat in the cleanup spot against Milwaukee on Saturday.

Aranda is not in the Rays' starting lineup against the Astros on Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

The lefty-hitting Aranda was in the Rays' lineup against Houston southpaw Framber Valdez on Friday, going 1-for-3 with a strikeout. Aranda will begin Saturday's contest on the bench while Yandy Diaz starts at first base and Danny Jansen starts behind home plate against left-hander Colton Gordon. Aranda is in the midst of a six-game hitting streak and has gone 10-for-21 with one home run and seven RBI over that span.

The Rockies selected Hiura's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday.

Hiura wasn't able to crack the Rockies' Opening Day roster and started the season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .243/.360/.467 with nine home runs and 31 RBI in 200 plate appearances. With Michael Toglia being optioned to Triple-A, Kyle Farmer will likely take over as the Rockies' everyday first baseman while Hiura provides depth at the position.

The Rockies optioned Toglia to Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday.

Toglia entered the season tasked with helping anchor the Rockies' lineup. However, the 26-year-old first baseman has slashed .194/.266/.349 with two steals, six home runs, 20 RBI and a league-leading 81 strikeouts in 186 plate appearances. Toglia will go to the minors to regain his form at the plate, with Keston Hiura being promoted to the majors in a corresponding move.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-5 with a solo home run Friday in a loss to the Dodgers.

Goldschmidt clubbed the final of four early home runs for New York, swatting a solo shot in the third inning. The long ball snapped a 12-game stretch without a homer for the veteran slugger, though he hit well during that span, batting .350 with a 6:5 BB:K. Goldschmidt has a modest six home runs on the season, putting him on pace to finish below 20 for the first time since the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign, but he's otherwise been plenty productive with a .343 batting average (fourth best in the majors) and .901 OPS.

The Orioles placed Mountcastle on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right hamstring strain.

Mountcastle had to make an early exit from Friday's contest due to a hamstring issue, and imaging later revealed a strain. While the 28-year-old is out, Coby Mayo will come up from the minors to fill the open spot on the active roster.

Lowe went 2-for-3 with two walks, two runs scored and two RBI in Friday's win over Arizona.

The first baseman produced his second straight multi-hit game while drawing multiple free passes for the first time since May 7. Lowe has endured a tough May overall, slashing .212/.278/.298 through 115 plate appearances even with the recent mini-surge, but he's still come through with 13 RBI and 14 runs in 26 contests, and he appears to be building some momentum heading into June.

Toro started at first base and went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 5-1 win over Atlanta.

First base has been chaotic since Triston Casas (knee) suffered a season-ending injury, but Toro has made a case for himself. He's gone 14-for-42 (.333) with three home runs, four doubles, five RBI and seven runs scored over the last 12 games. However, the Red Sox intend to experiment with Kristian Campbell at first base for at least one game during this weekend's series in Atlanta.
