Tellez isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

Lefty starter Jordan Montgomery will toe the slab for the D-backs on Saturday, so the left-handed-hitting Tellez will retreat to the bench to begin the game. Connor Joe will fill in at first base while batting third.

Smith is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Texas, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

The lefty-hitting Smith will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-5 with an RBI double in Friday's 11-6 win over the Rangers. Connor Wong will start at first base and bat fifth against Texas southpaw Cody Bradford.

France started at first base and went 0-for-3 in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Giants.

France made his first start for the Reds since being acquired earlier in the week. With Christian Encarnacion-Strand (wrist) done for the season, first base has become a rotation involving Jeimer Candelario, Spencer Steer and France.

Busch went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Cardinals.

Busch and Christian Bethancourt led the way for the Cubs with two home runs and four total RBI. For Busch, he's now up to 14 long balls this season to go along with a .257 batting average and .795 OPS. He's been a bit cold lately with a .143 average over his last five games, though he's gone deep twice in that span to boost his OPS to .821. Busch should remain locked in at first base for Chicago moving forward.

Bell started at first base, batted fourth and went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Friday's 9-8 win over Pittsburgh.

Bell, who was making his debut for the Diamondbacks, homered in his first plate appearance as part of a five-run first inning. He later tied the game at 7-7 with a solo shot in the seventh. Bell was acquired Tuesday immediately after the Diamondbacks learned starting first baseman Christian Walker (oblique) would miss an estimated three weeks, but Bell's role after Walker returns is uncertain with Joc Pederson boasting a .921 OPS this season as the primary DH against right-handed pitching.

Naylor went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's win over Baltimore.

Naylor singled and scored in the second inning before drilling a two-run double in the fifth. After an extended lull for most of July, he's gone 9-for-18 (.500) over his last five games. While he's already gone deep a career-high 23 times, he has just one home run over his last 15 games. Naylor is slashing .250/.330/.484 with 77 RBI through 101 games this season.

Pasquantino went 1-for-5 with two RBI, one run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 9-2 win over the Tigers.

The steal was Pasquantino's first since his rookie year in 2022 -- he was on the back end of a double steal that saw Bobby Witt swipe third base. While there's virtually no speed in Pasquantino's game, he has swung a hot bat lately, going 21-for-55 (.381) over his last 13 games. For the season, he's at a .263/.319/.441 slash line with 14 home runs, 78 RBI, 49 runs scored, 24 doubles and two triples across 107 contests.

Turner went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies.

Turner put an exclamation mark on the Mariners' seven-run second inning, hitting his first homer with the team since he was traded from the Blue Jays. The 39-year-old has gone 5-for-14 with six RBI across his first three games with Seattle, and that's been enough for him to take over a starting role at first base, though he served as the designated hitter Friday. Turner is slashing .261/.351/.382 with seven homers, 37 RBI, 38 runs scored and no stolen bases across 93 contests this season.

Alonso went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer, a walk and three strikeouts in Friday's 5-1 win over the Angels.

Alonso took Tyler Anderson deep in the third inning in what ended up being the deciding runs in Friday's win. Alonso has been hot with three home runs over his last five games and four long balls already since the All-Star break. The 29-year-old is hitting with .242/.324/.469 with 23 homers with 62 runs and 59 RBI in 109 games this season.

Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that he doesn't anticipate Freeman (personal) playing during the three-game weekend series against the Athletics, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Freeman is set to come off the family emergency list Saturday, but it's unlikely that he will return to action as he spends time with his family. Cavan Biggio will continue to start at first base for the Dodgers in Freeman's absence.
