Schneider isn't starting Friday against the Rays.

Schneider is 0-for-26 with 11 strikeouts across his last seven games, so he'll get a day off to regroup Friday. Santiago Espinal will start at second base in Schneider's place and bat ninth.

Lowe (knee) will undergo further testing on his right knee Friday, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

Lowe was reportedly walking around with a noticeable limp after injuring his knee during Thursday's win over the Angels. Isaac Paredes will start at second base Friday with Curtis Mead at third base.

Frazier isn't in the Orioles' lineup Friday against the Guardians, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Frazier will sit down Friday after going just 4-for-24 with three RBI and three runs scored across his last eight games. Jordan Westburg will cover second base while Frazier sits, and Ramon Urias will start at third.

Lowe (knee) is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

Lowe was lifted from Thursday's game against the Angels after fouling a ball off his right knee. While he is undoubtedly still sore, there's been no indication that he's dealing with anything more than a day-to-day issue. Isaac Paredes will slide over to second base Friday, with Curtis Mead getting the call at the hot corner.

The Red Sox recalled Valdez from Triple-A Worcester on Friday.

With Luis Urias (calf) on the injured list, Valdez will come up to give the Red Sox additional depth in the infield. Valdez has slashed .246/.294/.415 across 126 plate appearances in the majors this season.

The Red Sox placed Urias on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left calf strain, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Urias' placement on the injured list is backdated to Thursday, so he'll be eligible to return for the final game of the season Oct. 1. Pablo Reyes and Ceddanne Rafaela figure to see an increase in playing time at second base, and Enmanuel Valdez will come up from Triple-A Worcester to fill Urias' roster spot.

Urias (calf) is absent from the lineup for Friday's tilt against the White Sox.

Urias tweaked his left calf during Wednesday's game versus the Rangers and isn't ready to play even after Thursday's off day. Ceddanne Rafaela is covering second base for the Red Sox.

Arraez (ankle) is starting at second base and batting leadoff Friday versus the Brewers in his return to the lineup.

He missed the last two games with a sprained left ankle but is feeling well enough to give it a go following the Marlins' off day Thursday. Arraez and his teammates will be tasked with solving Corbin Burnes on Friday.

McNeil went 3-for-4 with a double, a triple, an RBI, two runs scored and a steal in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Phillies.

McNeil wound up a homer shy of a cycle Thursday, as he tallied multiple hits for the third time in his last four games. He's also gone seven straight games without striking out, going 10-for-28 (.357) in that span. McNeil's slash line is now up to .271/.334/.381 through 631 plate appearances this season with 10 homers, 75 runs scored, 54 RBI and a career-high 10 steals.

Albies went 4-for-6 with a double, home run, four RBI, two runs scored and one steal in Thursday's win over the Nationals.

Albies opened the scoring Thursday night for Atlanta with a first-inning RBI double and closed it out with a two-run homer in the ninth. This was the 26-year-old's third four-hit game of the year (first since June 4). Albies has produced a splendid year while bouncing back from last year's injury-riddled 64-game season. He has slashed .274/.328/.509 with 32 homers, 13 steals, 103 RBI and 89 runs over 139 contests.
