Arroyo went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI and a run scored in a 6-5 loss to the Yankees on Friday.

Arroyo got the scoring going in the fourth inning with a moonshot three-run homer over the Green Monster to give the Red Sox a 3-0 lead. The 25-year-old provided another clutch hit when he singled up the middle, bringing around Michael Chavis to score to even the game up at 5-5 in the 11th. Since being called up Sept. 8, Arroyo is hitting .303/.343/.606 with three home runs, eight RBI and five runs scored in 35 plate appearances.

Lux went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 15-6 win over the Rockies.

Lux gave the Dodgers a 4-0 lead in the second inning with his two-run blast off Rockies starter Ryan Castellani. In the seventh, Lux got aboard on a fielder's choice and came around to score on a Mookie Betts triple. The homer was Lux's third of the year to go with eight RBI, eight runs scored and a stolen base in 14 contests. He was able to snap a 0-for-14 dry spell he had over his previous four games.

Garcia isn't in the lineup for Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader against the Marlins.

Garcia was dominant in Friday's matinee as he went 2-for-3 with a double and two runs in the win. He'll take a breather for the second game as Josh Harrison takes over at second base.

Frazier isn't in the lineup for the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

Frazier went 0-for-1 with three walks and two runs during the first game of the doubleheader, but he'll take a seat for the nightcap. Bryan Reynolds will shift to left field with Jason Martin starting in center.

Marte (wriste) will take batting practice Saturday and has a shot to return during the final week of the season, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.

Marte's required 10 days on the injured list with left wrist inflammation elapsed Friday, though it looks like he still needs a few more days to heal. When exactly the Diamondbacks expect to activate him remains unclear.

Guillorme was optioned to the Mets' alternate training site Friday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Guillorme hasn't done anything wrong in his limited opportunities this season, hitting .347/.431/.429 in 58 plate appearances, though his .459 BABIP suggests he benefitted from quite a bit of good fortune. While his performances don't merit a demotion, the Mets simply didn't need an extra infielder at the moment, so he's the roster casualty as Franklyn Kilome (finger) returns from the injured list.

Gimenez will sit Friday against the Braves.

Gimenez has emerged to occupy the large half of a platoon at shortstop this season. With lefty Max Fried starting Friday, Amed Rosario gets the nod in his place.

Torres went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Blue Jays.

In his first game back in the starting lineup after nursing a minor quad injury, Torres launched one of a club-record five homers in the fourth inning. The 23-year-old is slashing .259/.365/.407 through 34 games with a disappointing three homers and 14 RBI.

Castro (hamstring) will be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's game against the Indians, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Castro has been on the shelf since Aug. 18 due to a hamstring injury, and after suffering a minor setback earlier this month, he's been cleared to return. He was slashing .276/.364/.379 with three doubles and an RBI over 15 contests prior to suffering the injury.

Lowe went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in an extra-inning loss to the Nationals on Wednesday.

On a mostly forgettable night for the Rays' offense, Lowe was essentially the only true bright spot. His ninth-inning homer off Daniel Hudson was Lowe's third round-tripper in the last five games, and his three-hit night extended his hitting streak to seven games after he opened September in an 0-for-12 slump.
