Miller went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and four RBI in Friday's 6-3 win over the Orioles.

Miller put Cleveland on the board with a two-run double in the first inning before knocking a two-run single in the third. Friday's performance was his fourth three-hit effort of the year and his first since April 13. The 25-year-old infielder is slashing .284/.337/.459 with 24 RBI and 18 extra-base hits this season.

Urias left Friday's game against the Padres with right thumb discomfort, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Discomfort is a symptom, not a diagnosis, so it's hard to say what exactly Urias' availability will be in the short term. The Brewers are running out of healthy players capable of playing shortstop, as Willy Adames and Mike Brosseau are already on the injured list. Pablo Reyes replaced Urias in this one.

Guillorme is not in Friday's lineup against the Dodgers.

He had started six straight games, hitting .455 with five walks and two strikeouts, prior to this one. Jeff McNeil is starting at second base while J.D. Davis starts at designated hitter.

Estrada was added to the lineup for Friday's game against Miami.

For a second consecutive game, Estrada will join the starting nine after he was initially slated to come off the bench. Donovan Walton (undisclosed) was a late scratch, so Estrada will start at the keystone and bat seventh.

Jones (elbow) was placed on unconditional release waivers by the Orioles on Friday.

Jones was designated for assignment by the Orioles last weekend, and the team had to either trade him or release him since he's currently injured. If the 24-year-old goes unclaimed on release waivers, he'll have the option of re-signing with the Orioles.

Gimenez isn't starting Friday against the Orioles.

Gimenez drew starts in the last five games and went 7-for-18 with a home run, a double, five RBI, three runs and a stolen base. Amed Rosario will shift to shortstop while Ernie Clement enters the lineup in left field.

Albies isn't starting Friday's game against the Rockies, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Albies has hit .333 with four doubles, five runs, a walk and two strikeouts over the last five games, but he'll get a breather Friday. Orlando Arcia will start at the keystone and bat seventh.

Lux wen 2-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Mets.

Lux knocked two singles in the contest, and he stole his fourth bag of the campaign in the third inning. The 24-year-old has collected multiple hits in two straight contests and in five of his past 10 games. Over that stretch, he is slashing .364/.447/.424 with seven runs, five walks and two thefts.

Donovan went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Cubs.

Donovan's batting has cooled a bit lately -- he's hitting .231 over his last eight games. In that span, he's also walked five times while striking out just twice. The 25-year-old has a .303/.442/.421 slash line with one home run, nine RBI, 14 runs scored, a stolen base and six doubles through 95 plate appearances. Impressively, his plate discipline has been solid after he didn't post a walk in his first 11 contests. He's walking at a 18.3 percent clip while striking out at just 13.7 percent.

Gorman (back) is starting Friday's game against the Cubs, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Gorman didn't appear in any of the last three games due to lower-back tightness, but he participated in batting practice and will serve as the designated hitter while batting second Friday. Over his last three games, he's gone 7-for-10 with two homers, a double, six RBI and five runs.
