Lewis went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and two runs scored in Friday's 12-8 win over Cleveland.

Lewis' first MLB homer was a 395-foot grand slam off of Bryan Shaw that capped off an eight-run fifth inning for Minnesota. The rookie infielder is hitting .320 through 25 career at-bats. If he continues to prove that he's capable at the plate, Lewis could stay on the big league roster once Carlos Correa (finger) returns.

Segura is not in the lineup Friday against the Dodgers, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Segura is riding a 10-game hitting streak, homering three times and stealing a pair of bases while slashing .457/.525/.743 over that stretch. He'll get a breather Friday as Johan Camargo takes over at second base.

Longoria isn't starting Friday against the Cardinals, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Longoria returned to action Wednesday against the Rockies and went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts. He'll get a breather in Friday's series opener while Wilmer Flores starts at the hot corner and bats third.

LeMahieu went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two runs, an RBI and a walk in a 15-7 win over the White Sox on Thursday.

LeMahieu began the game with a double and came around to score on a Giancarlo Stanton homer. That set the tone for the Yankees, who finished with a season-high 15 runs. LeMahieu notched his second three-hit game of the campaign and has gone 6-for-13 with six runs, four doubles and two walks over his past three contests.

Urias (abdomen) isn't starting Friday against the Tigers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Urias will be out of the lineup for a third consecutive matchup as he continues to deal with abdominal discomfort. Rylan Bannon will start at the hot corner and bat seventh.

Walls was added to the Friday's lineup against the Blue Jays and will start at third base and bat ninth, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The 25-year-old was originally absent from Friday's starting nine, but Yandy Diaz was a late scratch due to an illness. Walls is 1-for-22 two walks, two runs, a stolen base and nine strikeouts in his past seven contests.

Toro isn't starting Friday against the Mets.

Toro is in the midst of a slump in which he's gone 0-for-10 with two strikeouts, and he'll be out of the lineup for a second straight game. Eugenio Suarez will start at third base while Mike Ford serves as the designated hitter.

Anderson (illness) was activated from the COVID-19 injured list and will start at third base Friday against the Brewers, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

The 28-year-old has been on the COVID-19 IL for the past week but has rejoined the Marlins after a one-game rehab assignment with Single-A Jupiter. Anderson has seen most of his action at third base but has also started eight games in the outfield, and he should see most of his action at the hot corner for the foreseeable future with Joey Wendle (hamstring) moving to the 10-day IL.

Walls isn't starting Friday against the Blue Jays.

Walls will be out of the lineup for the third time in the last six matchups after hitting just .045 with two runs, a stolen base, two walks and nine strikeouts over his last seven games. Yandy Diaz will shift to the hot corner while Ji-Man Choi starts at first base.

Reynolds is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

Reynolds will take a seat for the second time in the past three games after starting the previous four contests. Albert Almora enters the lineup in center field in his absence with Mike Moustakas shifting to the hot corner and Tyler Naquin handling DH.
