Semien went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored during Friday's loss to Atlanta.

Semien's fourth homer of the year put Texas in front immediately, and his sixth-inning single sparked a rally to tie the game at 3-3, but the Rangers' offense ultimately wasn't able to keep up with Atlanta's. Semien has logged a hit in seven of his last eight games while slugging three homers in that span.

Marte went 4-for-6 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's win over the Giants.

Marte led the Diamondbacks offense to a monster night as the team scored 17 runs. This is the second baseman's first four-hit effort since Sept. 19, 2023, which also came against San Francisco. Marte has been scorching hot to start the season, slashing .345/.392/.598 with five home runs, 12 RBI and 21 runs scored over 97 plate appearances.

Lux isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

The Dodgers will face left-hander Sean Manaea on Friday, meaning the left-handed bat of Lux will begin the game in the dugout. Enrique Hernandez will fill in at second base and bat sixth.

Stott is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.

Sott has a .618 OPS through 19 games this season and will take a seat Friday as lefty Garrett Crochet starts for Chicago. Edmundo Sosa will handle the keystone and bat eighth.

Lopez went 1-for-2 in a 2-1 win over Kansas City on Wednesday.

It's been a difficult start to the season for the 29-year-old, as Lopez's slash line sits at .167/.255/.167 through 49 plate appearances. The infielder has yet to tally an extra-base hit and he's been a liability on the rare occasions that he's gotten on base, having been thrown out four times this season without a successful steal. He signed a one-year, $4.3 million contract with the White Sox this offseason largely for his defense, but Lopez will need to add something on the offensive side of the ball if he wants to keep seeing regular playing time.

Massey (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting at second base Friday versus the Orioles,

The 26-year-old opened the season on the injured list due to a back strain but is back with the Royals after he posted a 1.123 OPS over an eight-game rehab assignment. Massey could split playing time at the keystone with veteran Adam Frazier, but both hit left-handed so a traditional platoon isn't an option. Manager Matt Quatraro is more likely to ride the hot hand between them.

Guillorme is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Texas.

The 29-year-old started the past two games at second base after Ozzie Albies (toe) was placed on the injured list, but the lefty-hitting Guillorme will sit Friday as southpaw Andrew Heaney pitches for the Rangers. David Fletcher will take over at the keystone and bat ninth.

Drury (hamstring) will be the designated hitter and bat fifth for Friday's game in Cincinnati.

Drury missed three games with tightness in his left hamstring, but he's ready to at least hit Friday against one of his former teams. The 31-year-old has gotten off to a slow start at the plate for the Angels this season, putting up a .570 OPS with one home run in 16 contests.

Reyes started at third base and went 0-for-4 in Thursday's 5-4 loss to Cleveland.

Reyes filled in for the injured Rafael Devers (knee) and committed a costly error that allowed one of three unearned runs to score. Reyes also couldn't get a ball out of his glove quick enough to start a 5-4-3 double, which allowed another run to score. Per Ian Browne of MLB.com, the Red Sox are hoping to avoid having to put Devers on the injured list, which suggests a fill-in will be needed for more than just Thursday's contest. Reyes and Bobby Dalbec are the primary candidates to play third base should Devers need an stint on the IL.

Semien went 3-for-6 with a solo homer, a double and an additional run scored in Thursday's 9-7 victory over Detroit.

Semien led off the afternoon with a homer off Kenta Maeda, his third longball of the year, before adding two more hits later in the contest as he wound up a triple shy of a cycle. The 33-year-old Semien has gotten off to another strong start this season while serving as Texas' primary leadoff man, slashing .286/.355/.464 with 17 RBI and 16 runs scored through his first 93 plate appearances.
