Haggerty is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

The 26-year-old finds himself on the bench for the second straight game with Dylan Moore starting in left field Tuesday. Haggerty's role will take a hit later this week with top prospect Jarred Kelenic expected to be promoted Thursday.

Barretto will miss 10-to-12 months following Tommy John surgery, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Barreto was in the mix for a bench role this spring but was shut down with elbow inflammation. He'll now miss the entirety of this season and potentially the start of next year as well. This timeline means he's unlikely to be ready at the start of camp and may not be ready for the start of the regular season.

Arroyo (hand) isn't expected to spend more than the minimum 10 days on the injured list, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

Arroyo left Wednesday's game against the Tigers with a bruised left hand and was placed on the injured list Sunday. He'll be eligible to return at the beginning of next week.

Hernandez (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list when first eligible, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

Hernandez left Thursday's game against the Tigers with right hamstring tightness and landed on the injured list the next day. He'll be able to return next Tuesday.

Arraez was activated off the seven-day concussion injured list Tuesday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.

Arraez will wind up missing the minimum seven days -- an unsurprising result, as his symptoms were reportedly gone by Friday. He's hit for his usual high average this season and has added a 14.0 percent walk rate, giving him a .291/.398/.372 line through 25 games. Nick Gordon was optioned in a corresponding move.

Lowe will sit against lefty Jordan Montgomery and the Yankees on Tuesday, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports.

Lowe isn't being strictly platooned but there are signs that his playing time against lefties may be slipping. He's now been on the bench against three of the last four southpaws the Rays have faced after sitting against just three of the first 10. Mike Brosseau will handle second base Tuesday.

Kemp is hitting .250 (4-for-16) with a double, an RBI, two walks and four runs over seven May games.

Kemp has reached safely in four of the five starts he's drawn during that span, and he's sporting an impressive .368 on-base percentage for the season thanks in large part to a 17.2 percent walk rate. However, Kemp's season-plus long-ball drought continues, contributing to an abysmal .261 slugging percentage. The 29-year-old has exclusively operated out of the bottom third of the order, making nearly as many appearances in left field (10) as at second base (11).

Andrus went 1-for-4 with a triple in a loss to the Rays on Sunday.

Andrus' first three-bagger since 2019 served to extend his modest hitting streak to three games and qualified as his second extra-base hit in as many contests. Despite the occasional flashes at the plate, the veteran's season-plus slump continues in full force, as he's still slashing just .158/.203/.211 and sports a career-high 18.7 percent strikeout rate over 123 plate appearances.

Herrera signed a minor-league contract with the Blue Jays on April 28, MiLB.com reports.

Toronto assigned Herrera to Triple-A Buffalo prior to the start of the minor-league season last week, and he's proceeded to go 2-for-12 with five total bases over his first three games with the affiliate. The 27-year-old Herrera has previously seen action in the big leagues over parts of four seasons with the Mets, Reds and Orioles, producing a .199/.290/.386 career slash line.

Altuve went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jays.

Altuve smashed his third home run of the season in the fourth inning, the second blast in the last four games for the second baseman. He's hit safely in five consecutive games, going 9-for-22 during that run and reversing a 2-for-29 slide that left him batting .247.
