Haggerty was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

With J.P. Crawford heading to the 7-day injured list, Haggerty will take his roster spot. The 29-year-old will make his first appearance in the majors since being optioned June 6. Prior to that, the utility player had been with the Mariners the whole season, but was hitting below the Mendoza Line. Triple-A has been a different story, where he has slashed .325/.411/.590 with eight home runs in 42 games.

India (foot) will receive a second opinion on his left foot and has been shut down from running for at least two weeks, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

India has reportedly been feeling pain while running, so the Reds will pause his rehab until late August, meaning his return to the lineup will have to wait until September. The 26-year-old second baseman was slashing .251/.336/.409 across 453 plate appearances prior to getting injured in late July.

Urias is out of the lineup Friday versus the Tigers.

Pablo Reyes will start at second base and bat seventh. Urias recorded at least one hit in each of his first three games with the Red Sox but has since gone 0-for-8 with one walk and four strikeouts.

Kemp was placed on the paternity leave list Friday.

Kemp figures to be away all weekend before rejoining the Athletics early next week in St. Louis. Lawrence Butler is taking Kemp's spot on the active roster.

Gimenez went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Blue Jays.

Gimenez is hitting .250 with a home run and two steals over nine games in August. The second baseman is up to 19 thefts this season, one shy of matching his career high from last year, but he's also slashing a middling .235/.310/.381 with 10 homers, 42 RBI, 50 runs scored, 20 doubles and four triples over 111 contests. On the bright side, he's regularly hit second since Amed Rosario was dealt to the Dodgers.

Peguero went 2-for-4 with two RBI and one steal in Thursday's victory over Atlanta.

Peguero drove in the game-tying run in the bottom of the sixth with a single before stealing second base. The shortstop then tacked on an extra insurance run to put the Pirates up 7-4 in the seventh, giving him his second two-hit performance in his last three games. He's also hit safely in three straight, driving in three runs over that stretch.

Altuve went 4-for-5 with two doubles, a solo home run and two runs scored in Thursday's loss to the Orioles.

Altuve recorded hits in two of his first three at-bats but was left stranded on each occasion. He then added a solo homer in the top of the seventh and a double in the ninth, helping to bring the Astros back within one run of Baltimore on each occasion. With the four-hit performance the second baseman is now batting .400 (14-for-35) in August with two homers, five RBI, 10 runs scored and four stolen bases. He's also tallied at least three hits in back-to-back games.

Rodgers (hamstring) isn't in the Rockies' lineup Thursday against the Dodgers, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Rodgers has been dealing with discomfort in his right hamstring lately, and it will cause him to miss his third consecutive start Thursday. Alan Trejo will fill in at the keystone and bat sixth.

Lowe is not in the lineup Thursday against the Cardinals.

Lowe has posted an .863 OPS with six homers and 16 RBI in 27 games since returning July 4 from a month-long absence to heal a herniated disc, but he'll hit the bench Thursday with left-hander Matthew Liberatore set to toe the slab for St. Louis. Isaac Paredes is playing second base and batting fifth as Curtis Mead covers third base and bats seventh.

Frazier (thumb) went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-2 loss to the Astros.

Frazier was on the bench Tuesday with a jammed thumb, but it was clearly a minor issue. The second baseman has hit safely in eight of his last 12 games, batting .333 (10-for-30) with five RBI over that span. For the season, he's slashing just .243/.305/.422 with 13 home runs, eight steals, 50 RBI, 46 runs scored and 15 doubles through 102 contests as the Orioles' primary option at the keystone. He continues to play mostly against right-handed pitchers.
