Devers (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Blue Jays, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Devers exited Wednesday's game with right hamstring tightness but will require at least one more day of rest following Thursday's scheduled off day. The 22-year-old has indicated the present injury isn't nearly as severe as the left hamstring issues he faced last season, but he'll nonetheless miss at least one game. Eduardo Nunez will start at the hot corner and bat eighth in the series opener.

Donaldson won his appeal and will not be suspended for his part in a benches-clearing brawl against the Pirates back on June 10, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Donaldson had been suspended for one game for his part in the altercation but will now not miss any time. He also saw his fine reduced to $1,000.

Chapman went 2-for-4 with a game-winning three-run home run and a walk in a victory over the Rays on Thursday.

Chapman played the hero Thursday, squaring up on a Diego Castillo offering and launching it 423 feet to left center with Jurickson Profar and Marcus Semien aboard and the Athletics down to their last out. The hard-hitting third baseman's clutch homer was yet another success story in his current heater at the plate, one that's now seen him hit safely in seven consecutive games and raise his season average 15 points to .264 in the process. Moreover, the round tripper was also Chapman's first since June 2, a span of 15 games.

Muncy was diagnosed with a bruised ankle after X-rays came back negative Thursday, Pedro Moura of The Athletic reports.

Muncy fouled a ball off his ankle during the sixth inning Thursday and exited the game a couple frames later. The 28-year-old appears to have avoided a serious injury and should be considered day-to-day.

Bregman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two walks in Thursday's loss to the Yankees.

Bregman was the Astros' leadoff hitter for the seventh consecutive game. He's gone 5-for-24 with three homers, seven RBI and five runs scored while filling in for George Springer (hamstring) in that role.

Senzel went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a walk during Thursday's 7-1 win over the Brewers.

Senzel picked up an RBI on a bases-loaded walk in the first inning and later added a two-run home run in the seventh. He has been quite productive of late, totaling nine RBI, three home runs and five runs scored over his last eight games. Senzel seems to be reacting positively to his move to fifth in the order.

Anderson went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, two RBI and a walk in Thursday's win over the Cardinals.

Anderson drove home a run in the sixth inning on a double to left field, and he extended Miami's lead to two in the top of the eighth with a solo blast. The 26-year-old now sits with nine home runs, 32 RBI and four stolen bases through 72 games this season.

Segura went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday against the Nationals.

Segura took Matt Grace deep in the fifth inning to record his seventh homer of the season. He was dropped to fifth in the order for Thursday's contest -- the lowest in the lineup he's appeared all season -- and responded with his second home run of June. He's now hitting .269/.320/.435 across 282 plate appearances for the season.

Rendon went 2-for-3 with a walk, double, solo home run and two runs scored Thursday against the Phillies.

Rendon continued his impressive power surge, recording his 20th double in the first inning and ultimately coming around to score. He wasn't done, however, as he took Nick Pivetta deep in the sixth frame to record his 17th homer of the season. He has now homered six times in his last 10 games and is hitting .314/.407/.655 across 258 plate appearances.

Arenado left Thursday's game against Arizona due to a left big toe bruise.

This is positive news for Arenado, who looks to have a chance to get back into the starting lineup for Friday's series opener with the Dodgers. He'll likely be re-evaluated when he shows up to the ballpark Friday morning.
