Hayes went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 9-2 win over Miami.

In his second game back from a wrist injury, Hayes wasted little time in making an impact. He slugged a two-run homer in the first inning and added an RBI single during Pittsburgh's five-run rally in the sixth. The third baseman is 4-for-8 with a homer, a triple, three RBI and three runs scored in the last two games. He should be good to go for an everyday role, and the early returns are promising.

Segura went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 2-1 loss to Washington.

The 31-year-old led off the fourth inning with a single, stole second and scored on J.T. Realmuto's RBI single. Segura has found a groove lately -- he's on a five-game hitting streak, going 7-for-20 (.350) with four stolen bases and five runs scored in that span. For the season, the infielder is slashing .320/.364/.451 with three home runs, 12 RBI, 21 runs scored and six steals.

Muncy (ankle) is considered day-to-day following his early exit from Friday's win over Atlanta, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Manager Dave Roberts said after Friday's contest that Muncy "felt something not right" with his right ankle, and the infielder will be reevaluated Saturday to determine the extent of the issue. If the 30-year-old misses additional time, Albert Pujols could step in at first base.

Muncy exited Friday's game against Atlanta with right ankle pain, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

The 29-year-old sustained the injury in the top of the fourth inning while he was trying to beat out a double play, and he was replaced by Matt Beaty at first base. It's not yet clear whether Muncy's injury will force him to miss additional time.

Muncy left Friday's game against Atlanta in the top of the fourth inning with an apparent injury, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Muncy suffered his injury after he tried to beat out a double play in the fourth inning, and he was lifted from the contest immediately afterward. The nature and severity of the issue aren't yet known.

Longoria (side) is starting Friday's game against the Cubs, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Longoria left Monday's game due to right side soreness and was held out of the lineup each of the last two games. However, he'll play third base and bat fifth Friday.

McMahon (groin) will sit for the second straight game Friday against the Athletics, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

The Rockies described McMahon's left groin strain as "very minor" when he was held out of the lineup Thursday, but it's evidently significant enough that he'll sit for a second straight game. Garrett Hampson will again handle second base in his absence.

Urias was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Friday.

The 27-year-old was demoted to Triple-A in mid-May after posting a .626 OPS through six weeks with the Orioles, and he'll return to the major-league roster Friday. Urias also struggled in the minors with a .191/.269/.277 slash line, and he may be sent back down once Pat Valaika (personal) returns from the bereavement list.

Bregman will get a rare day off Friday against the Blue Jays, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Bregman hits the bench after starting 40 of the Astros' last 41 games. He's been in a bit of a slump over his last eight games, grabbing just four hits. Aledmys Diaz will be the third baseman in his absence.

Moncada went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday against the Tigers.

Moncada took Casey Mize deep in the opening frame to record his fifth home run of the season. It was only his second long ball since April 30, though he's in the midst of a seven-game hit streak, during which time he's driven in four and scored five runs. Overall, Moncada is hitting .299/.426/.444 across 230 plate appearances this season.
