Casas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-6 win over the Angels.

Casas launched his first homer of the season, and the second of back-to-back blasts in the second inning, contributing to Boston's early 4-0 lead. After a cool 1-for-15 start, Casas has hit safely in four straight, going 6-for-15 with two extra-base hits, three walks, two RBI and three runs scored.

Torkelson went 2-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 5-4 win over the A's.

Torkelson has been struggling a bit, as he came into Friday's game batting just .185, but he managed to push that up to .226 with the two hits. The first baseman batted .203 and .233 in his first two MLB seasons, so his average may not climb much higher, but fantasy managers are expecting him to get going in the power department after he launched 31 home runs in 2023.

Diaz went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and two runs scored Friday against the Rockies.

Diaz has hit atop the Rays' lineup in every game this season, and he made an immediate impact by drawing a walk to begin the game while also coming around to score. Eight frames later, he led off with a double, which began a five-run rally for the Rays. Diaz now has a three-game hitting streak and three multi-hit performances for the season.

Steer went 1-for-3 with a solo homer and two walks during Friday's 3-2 loss against the Mets.

Steer put the Reds ahead early with a long ballt off Jose Quintana in the first inning, but Cincinnati's offense wasn't able to manufacture much else Friday. The 26-year-old utility man has homered twice with nine RBI through his first seven games.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and two runs scored in Friday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Olson slammed a monstrous 424-foot home run off Arizona left-hander Tommy Henry for his second of the season. The Atlanta first baseman later added a double off Kevin Ginkel and scored the game-tying run in the ninth inning. Olson appears to be headed for another solid season hitting in the heart of an uber-potent Atlanta lineup, as he's opened with a .269/.321/.654 slash line in his first 27 plate appearances.

O'Hearn went 2-for-4 with a triple and a solo home run in Friday's 5-2 win over the Pirates.

Getting the start at DH against right-hander Jared Jones and batting fifth, O'Hearn took the rookie hurler deep in the second inning for his first homer of the year. The 30-year-old slugger came out of nowhere to post an .802 OPS over 368 plate appearances last season in a strong-side platoon role, and he's doing more of the same to begin 2024, going 5-for-16 with three of his hits going for extra bases, including a double against the Angels on Opening Day.

Lowe (oblique) took part in batting practice Friday, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports.

Lowe started the season on the 10-day injured list after being diagnosed with a right oblique strain in spring training. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy noted that Lowe will likely face live pitching in the next few days, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News, so a minor-league rehab assignment doesn't appear far off.

France was placed on the paternity list Friday, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

France will likely miss the entirety of the Mariners' weekend series in Milwaukee before rejoining the club next week in Toronto. Luke Raley and Dylan Moore will likely handle first base while France is away.

Noda is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in Detroit.

The left-handed hitting Noda will take a seat as the Tigers send ace southpaw Tarik Skubal to the mound. J.D. Davis will be at first base and Darell Hernaiz is at the hot corner.

Alonso went 3-for-9 with a solo home run, three total runs and a walk in Thursday's doubleheader split with Detroit.

Alonso struck out five times across 10 plate appearances in the doubleheader, but that didn't prevent him from making an offensive impact. In Game 1, he reached base three times and scored two of New York's three runs, and in the nightcap he slugged a solo homer in the ninth inning to tie the score in what became the Mets' first win of the campaign. Alonso is slashing .292/.346/.542 through 26 plate appearances and has two homers, both of which have been solo shots to account for his two RBI on the season.
