Torres went 3-for-10 with a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's doubleheader sweep of the Rockies.

Torres had his second multi-hit effort of May in the matinee game before contributing a three-run double in the third inning of the nightcap. The second baseman is 13-for-39 (.333) with six extra-base hits and 12 RBI over his last 10 contests. Overall, he's batting .290 with an .808 OPS, four home runs, 20 RBI, 15 runs scored, four stolen bases and five doubles through 112 plate appearances this season as the Tigers' primary option at the keystone.

Gimenez (quad) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.

Gimenez made an early exit from Wednesday's contest due to right quad tightness, and he'll take a day off Thursday while he continues to recover. His absence will put Ernie Clement at second base and open a spot in the lineup for Nathan Lukes to start in left field while batting ninth. It was also announced that Gimenez underwent an MRI on Thursday, but the results are still unknown, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic.

Amador isn't in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against Detroit.

Amador went 0-for-3 during a blowout loss in Game 1, dropping his batting average down to just .152 on the year. He'll grab a seat on the bench for the final half of Thursday's activities, opening up second base for Owen Miller.

Triple-A Memphis activated Helman (undisclosed) from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

Helman missed nearly three weeks of action with an undisclosed injury. He's slashed only .204/.283/.278 with Memphis this season, and the Cardinals seem likely to turn to Thomas Saggese or Jose Fermin before Helman if they need a utility player.

Lowe is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Phillies, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Lowe plays against most lefties -- including each of the previous two times the Rays have faced a southpaw -- but he will take a seat in this one against left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Curtis Mead will occupy second base and bat sixth.

Freeman (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque this weekend, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Out since mid-April with a left oblique strain, Freeman has been cleared for game action and shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before rejoining the Rockies' active roster. The versatile 25-year-old has various paths to playing time if he can perform well, although the career .221/.304/.324 hitter is no safe bet in that regard.

Holliday will start at second base and bat second in Thursday's game versus the Twins.

The hot-hitting Holliday had been elevated to the No. 6 spot in the lineup for each of his last five starts, and now he'll now bat second - which is the highest he's batted this season - for the series finale against the Twins. Holliday is slashing .313/.421/.500 with three home runs and one stolen base across his last 17 contests.

Paris went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk Wednesday in a 5-4 win against the Blue Jays.

Paris went deep five times in his first 10 games this season, but he entered Wednesday without a long ball across his subsequent 21 contests. That drought ended in the seventh inning, when Paris launched a 410-foot solo shot to center field. For good measure, the infielder/outfielder drew a four-pitch walk to lead off the ninth, setting the stage for what ended up as a walk-off win for his team. Paris slumped badly in middle and late April, leading to his current poor .228 batting average on the season, but he's showing positive signs in May, slashing .313/.389/.563 with three RBI through five games, albeit with a 38.9 percent strikeout rate.

Gimenez was removed from Wednesday's game against the Angels due to right quad tightness.

The Blue Jays are labeling Gimenez's removal as precautionary, which is an encouraging sign that the infielder isn't dealing with anything too serious. If his quad continues to bother him Thursday, the Jays may give him a day off, but a trip to the injured list doesn't seem imminent.

Espinal will start at third base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

Espinal will pick up his eighth straight start Wednesday and his third in a row at third base, which could be his primary home for the foreseeable future after Noelvi Marte was placed on the 10-day injured list with a Grade 2 oblique strain. The 30-year-old Espinal has recorded at least one hit in each of his previous seven starts to lift his average up to .333 over 87 at-bats. Espinal could continue to occupy a spot in the heart of the lineup while he's swinging a hot bat and while the Reds are without multiple key hitters due to injuries.
