Smith went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Friday's 6-4 win over the Padres.

Both long balls came off Kyle Hart, as Smith crushed a three-run blast in the second inning that left his bat at 107.8 mph before dropping a solo shot into the Crawford Boxes in the fourth. The 22-year-old rookie appears to be finding his footing in the majors, and since getting a couple days off to reset earlier in April, he's batting .290 (9-for-31) over the last nine games with all three of his big-league homers and 10 RBI.

Candelario went 1-for-5 with a solo homer in Friday's 8-3 win over Baltimore.

Candelario gave the Reds a three-run lead in the fourth inning when he took a 91-mph fastball from Cade Povich deep to center field for a solo shot. Candelario has a .447 OPS across 74 plate appearances this season, but Friday's homer may be a sign of things to come for the 31-year-old.

Wagaman went 1-for-3 with one walk and a two-run home run in Friday's 7-2 loss to Philadelphia.

Wagaman struck out in each of his first two at-bats, but he registered his second home run of the season when he took Zack Wheeler deep to left-center field for a 427-foot, two-run moonshot. Wagaman is in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 8-for-18 with two walks, five runs scored, one home run and four RBI.

The Angels designated Lopez for assignment Friday, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Lopez signed a major-league contract with the Angels in late March, but he's appeared in just six games for the Halos while going 0-for-6 at the plate. If he goes unclaimed off waivers or isn't traded, Lopez will have the option of remaining in the organization in Triple-A or exploring other opportunities by entering free agency. Zach Neto (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.

LeMahieu (calf) will begin a rehab assignment Tuesday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

LeMahieu has been playing in extended spring training contests and is ready to test things out in a formal game setting. He will require a lengthy rehab assignment, perhaps needing the full 20-day allotment. Oswaldo Cabrera has been serving as the Yankees' primary third baseman with LeMahieu out and there's no guarantee that LeMahieu will be handed regular playing time upon his return.

Smith (thumb) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Dodgers.

It's the fourth straight absence from the lineup for Smith as he continues to manage a bruised thumb. There's been no indication that the 27-year-old will require a trip to the injured list, but it may be considered given how much time he's already missed. Dustin Harris is receiving another start in left field for the Rangers.

Moore is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Toronto.

Moore is coming off a monster series against the Reds, having gone 7-for-12 with two home runs and two stolen bases. Despite that, he will begin the series opener versus the Blue Jays on the bench. Miles Mastrobuoni will start at second base and hit seventh for the Mariners.

Hayes is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Guardians.

Hayes enters action Friday in a 3-for-29 slide at the dish, so it seems like a good time to give him a breather. Jared Triolo is occupying third base and batting seventh for the Pirates.

The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Pauley was just sent down Thursday but returns to take the roster spot of the injured Derek Hill (wrist). With Connor Norby back in action at third base, Pauley's playing time with the Marlins will likely be limited.

The Red Sox optioned Sogard to Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Sogard was with the Red Sox for just one game while Alex Bregman was on paternity leave and did not get off the bench. He'll return to a utility role at Worcester.
