Gonzalez will be on the bench Saturday against Miami.

Gonzalez had been settling in as the White Sox's primary second baseman, starting 14 of 16 games at the keystone even with Elvis Andrus back from his oblique injury for the last six games of that stretch. Gonzalez has hit just .198/.213/.384 through 39 games this season, however, so it's perhaps no surprise that he's been back on the bench for the last two games. That said, Andrus is hitting just .200/.278/.248 himself, so he hasn't deserved everyday at-bats either.

Julien was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul ahead of Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.

He will take the place of Jorge Polanco, who was placed on the injured list with a hamstring strain. Julien has been back and forth between the majors and Triple-A this season, but when he's been up, he has typically played pretty regularly against righties. He hit second or first in his last five games before his most recent demotion.

Polanco was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left hamstring strain.

He was pulled from Thursday's game after suffering the hamstring injury and an MRI revealed a strain. Edouard Julien was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul to take Polanco's spot on the active roster and should fill in for him at second base, at least against righties.

Castro is not in Saturday's lineup against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Castro is hitting .238 with three runs and one RBI in 21 at-bats this month. Alan Trejo gets the start at the keystone while batting eighth.

Dubon went 2-for-7 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored Friday against the Guardians.

Dubon has three consecutive multi-hit games, during which he's homered, hit three doubles, driven in three and scored twice. He isn't likely to have a consistent defensive home, but he has drawn starts at shortstop and left field in his last two contests. With Yordan Alvarez (oblique) sidelined, Dubon could be forcing his way into an outfield rotation with Chas McCormick, Corey Julks and Jake Meyers.

Rojas will be on the bench Saturday against Detroit.

Rojas finds himself on the bench for the second time in three games. Both days off have come against lefties, including Saturday's starter, Matthew Boyd. Emmanuel Rivera will get the nod at third base.

Bae went 1-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base Friday against the Mets.

Bae made an impact with his speed early in the game, reaching base on a bunt hit and forcing an errant throw by Eduardo Escobar to get a pair of runs home. He's now reached base in four consecutive games, tallying five hits in 13 at-bats while also drawing three free passes. In that span, he's also scored four runs, driven in four and swiped four bags. Bae continues to serve in a strong-side platoon role, with his playing time split between center field and second base.

Hoerner went 2-for-2 with two RBI in Friday's 3-2 win over the Giants.

Hoerner appeared as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning and promptly delivered a two-RBI single, which put the Cubs ahead 2-1. He singled again in the ninth. The infielder is now batting .284 after hitting .281 last season. Hoerner has also chipped in 14 stolen bases this year, which has boosted his fantasy value.

Altuve went 2-for-7 with a double, three runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 10-9 extra-innings loss to the Guardians.

Due to injuries, it took the second baseman nearly two and a half months to record his first steal of 2023, but Altuve appeared to be healthy Friday as he scampered around the bases. The 33-year-old is slashing a paltry .246/.328/.421 through 64 plate appearances, but if he can stay in the lineup, Altuve is capable of improving those numbers in a hurry.

McNeil went 1-for-4 with one double and one run scored in Friday's loss to the Pirates.

McNeil doubled in his first at-bat of the game, and with it recorded just his second extra-base hit since April 27. McNeil had been dealing with a groin injury for the past two weeks, but he seems to be fully healthy once again. The reigning National League batting champion has fallen off a bit from last season, sporting a .278 batting average go to with a .354 on-base percentage.
