Rodgers is not in Saturday's lineup against the Reds.

Rodgers will be out of the lineup for the third time in Houston's last five games after starting the team's four previous contests. The Astros shifted their defensive alignment Saturday, with Jose Altuve manning second base to accommodate Yainer Diaz at designated hitter.

McNeil isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

McNeil will get a breather Saturday after making four consecutive starts, during which he went 2-for-12 with a homer and two RBI. Luisangel Acuna will get the nod at second base and bat sixth.

Cronenworth went 1-for-3 with two walks, two runs and an RBI against Colorado in a 13-9 victory Friday.

Cronenworth was activated from the injured list Friday and immediately returned to the lineup at second base. He made an impact in his first game back, getting on base three times, with his lone hit -- a single -- plating a run in the the eighth inning. Per Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union Tribune, the fractured rib that landed Cronenworth on the IL hasn't yet completely healed, and he's wearing an undershirt with padding to protect the area, but he should be able to play on a near-everyday basis moving forward.

Baty went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's win over the Cubs.

Getting his second straight start at third base, his first action since rejoining the big-league roster at the beginning of the week, Baty took Jameson Taillon deep in the second inning, one of four homers the Mets hit off the right-hander. With Mark Vientos struggling, the door could be opening for Baty to push for the starting job at the hot corner. The 25-year-old will need to show more consistency himself, however -- through 65 MLB plate appearances this year he's slashing just .210/.246/.387 with two homers and a 30.8 percent strikeout rate.

Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.

He drove a Jose Quintana sinker deep to right field in the fourth inning -- Lowe's first homer, and only his third hit, off a southpaw this season. It's an encouraging sign for the second baseman, who has had trouble getting much loft on the ball in the early going and sports a career-low 33.7 percent flyball rate so far in 2025. He also carries a career-worst 6.4 percent walk rate, leading to a rough .200/.250/.323 slash line with five homers, one steal, 13 runs and 18 RBI through 34 games.

Marte went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs, two walks and three total runs scored in Friday's 14-11 loss to the Dodgers.

Marte went yard in the first and eighth innings. All three of his homers this season have come over the last two games, and it looks like he's starting to settle back in after missing a month to a hamstring injury. The second baseman is batting .292 with four RBI, 11 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 59 plate appearances. It wouldn't be surprising to see him run less given the hamstring concern, but he should continue to offer solid production in the other counting stats while occupying a near-everyday role.

Keith went 2-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI single in Friday's 2-1 win over the Rangers.

Keith came around to score in the second inning and added to the Tigers' lead in the fourth with an RBI single that brought Riley Greene home. Keith had a poor start to the season, but he has been hot at the plate in May. He has recorded two hits in each of his last four starts, going 8-for-14 with five runs scored, two home runs and six RBI over that span.

Edman (ankle) has experienced discomfort when running in a straight line, but he is scheduled to participate in live at-bats next week, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Edman is working through a right ankle injury that landed him on the 10-day injured list April 30. He isn't recovering as quickly as once hoped, and it appears he'll remain on the IL beyond this weekend's road series against Arizona. Hyeseong Kim and Miguel Rojas should continue to see additional work at the keystone for as long as Edman is sidelined.

The Blue Jays placed Gimenez on the 10-day injured list Friday with a right quadricep strain.

After exiting Wednesday's game against the Angels early, Gimenez underwent imaging Thursday that revealed a strain in his quad which will keep him out until at least May 18. Michael Stefanic will come up from Triple-A Buffalo to give the Jays some short-term infield depth, though Ernie Clement will likely see time at second base going forward with Addison Barger at third and Nathan Lukes picking up starts in the outfield.

The Blue Jays selected Stefanic's contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday.

The move corresponds with the Blue Jays placing Andres Gimenez (quadriceps) on the 10-day injured list. Stefanic signed a minor-league contract with the Blue Jays in November after appearing in 40 games for the Angels in 2024 when he posted a .556 OPS with eight RBI over 124 plate appearances. He's been more productive in the minors this season, slashing .319/.454/.372 with four stolen bases, seven runs scored and 13 RBI in 119 plate appearances. With Gimenez on the shelf, Stefanic should see some playing time at second base on days when Ernie Clement shifts to third.
