Twins' Royce Lewis: Begins running
Lewis (hamstring) began running Friday but hasn't started running the bases, MLB.com reports.
He'll continue running the next few days before eventually progressing to running the bases. It's not clear at this time how long he'll be out, but at least he's making progress. Lewis suffered the injury June 13 after missing five weeks to begin the season with the same injury on his left leg.

Marte (oblique) started at third base and went 2-for-3 with two RBI Friday in a rehab game in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Eugenio Suarez 3B | CIN
Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez: Continues homer binge
Suarez went 4-for-6 with two home runs, three RBI and an additional run scored in Friday's 14-8 win over Colorado.
The Diamondbacks and Rockies were engaged in the kind of hitting battle that made Coors Field famous. Suarez eventually put some separation between the two clubs with home runs in consecutive at-bats in the fifth and sixth innings. He's been on a homer binge of late, going deep in consecutive games and eight times over the last 12 contests, raising his season total to 24 (fourth in MLB). This was the third time this season he's recorded multiple homers in a game, and Friday's second blast was the 300th of his career -- making him the third Venezuelan-born player to reach that milestone, after Miguel Cabrera and Andres Galarraga.

Eguy Rosario 3B | SD
Padres' Eguy Rosario: Out with sports hernia
Rosario was placed on the 60-day IL on Friday after having surgery for a sports hernia, per MadFriars.
It's been a rough season for Rosario, who fell short in a bid to make the Opening Day roster with the big club and was subsequently DFA'd. The versatile slugger ended up returning to the organization but posted a meager .509 OPS in 29 games with Triple-A El Paso and was then sent to San Diego's ACL team for a reset. Rosario didn't fare much better there, registering a .553 OPS across 12 contests, and he's now slated for a long absence due to the sports hernia surgery. If he returns to action this season, it won't be until at least mid-August.

Amed Rosario SS | NYY
Nationals' Amed Rosario: Opens scoring with homer
Rosario went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Rosario continues to play in a short-side platoon role in the Nationals' infield. His homer Friday was his second in June, but he's gone just 5-for-29 (.172) over 10 games this month. That won't help him push for more playing time in the long run, though he still gets looks against lefties to allow Luis Garcia or Brady House to get rest. Rosario is at a .271/.320/.432 slash line with four homers, 15 RBI, 16 runs scored, one stolen base and seven doubles over 126 plate appearances this season.

Dodgers' Max Muncy: Sitting Friday
Muncy is not in the Dodgers' starting lineup against the Nationals on Friday.
With the Nationals sending southpaw MacKenzie Gore to the mound, the lefty-hitting Muncy will begin Friday's game on the bench while Miguel Rojas starts at third base and bats ninth. Muncy has slashed .314/.463/.549 with two steals, three home runs and seven RBI in 67 plate appearances since the beginning of June.

Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI
Cardinals' Nolan Arenado: Taking seat Friday
Arenado isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against Cincinnati, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Arenado will get a chance to catch his breath after playing both games of Thursday's doubleheader, during which he went 3-for-9 while hitting his 350th career home run. Nolan Gorman will fill in at the hot corner and bat fourth for the Cardinals.
-
Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN
Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Taking seat Friday
Hayes is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Rangers.
Hayes was also on the bench for Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader and has a .558 OPS in June with only one extra-base hit in his past 23 contests. Jared Triolo will receive another start at the hot corner Friday for Pittsburgh.

Luke Adams 3B | MIL
Brewers' Luke Adams: Lands on 7-day IL
Adams was placed on Double-A Biloxi's 7-day injured list Friday due to a left shoulder contusion, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Adams suffered the injury in Thursday's game against Knoxville on a collision at home plate. He has spent the entire 2025 season in Double-A and is slashing .236/.419/.472 with 10 steals, 13 doubles, 11 home runs and 38 RBI over 258 plate appearances.

Mark Vientos DH | NYM
Mets' Mark Vientos: Nearing return
Vientos (hamstring) will continue his rehab assignment this weekend and could return as soon as Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Vientos started a rehab assignment Tuesday but has appeared in just one game, going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts. If all goes well this weekend, Vientos could be back for the start of a three-game set Monday against Atlanta.
