Berti (calf) ran and performed other baseball activities Friday, but he's not yet back up to full speed, per MLB.com.

Berti has been on the shelf with a left calf strain since late May. He resumed running at approximately 95 percent prior to the All-Star break, then had a setback and was given a PRP injection. Though he's back to being able to run, Berti isn't likely to begin a minor-league rehab assignment until he's up to full speed. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said July 22 that it's "going to be a little bit of time" before Berti is ready to return, though a clear timeline hasn't been shared.

Bohm was removed from Saturday's game against the Guardians in the seventh inning due to a left ankle contusion, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

It's unclear how Bohm suffered the injury but it was bothering him enough to prompt the Phillies to put Edmundo Sosa at third base to start the seventh frame. The 27-year-old went 1-for-2 with a walk before exiting. He should be considered day-to-day.

The Red Sox traded Coffey, infielder Eddinson Paulino and right-hander Gilberto Batista to the Blue Jays on Saturday in exchange for catcher Danny Jansen, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Coffey was selected with the 41st overall pick in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft and has put together a .234/.321/.460 slash line with 14 home runs, 39 runs and 45 RBI in 271 plate appearances at High-A this season. Additionally, he's swiped eight bags in 10 attempts.

Rendon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

Rendon will get the night off Saturday after starting back-to-back games. The 34-year-old will hand over DH duties to Willie Calhoun, who'll hit cleanup. Rendon owns a .562 OPS through 142 plate appearances this season.

LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

LeMahieu will sit for a second straight game. He pinch hit for Ben Rice in Friday's 9-7 loss to Boston, striking out in his lone plate appearance in the ninth inning. Oswaldo Cabrera will start at third base Saturday and bat ninth against Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello.

McMahon is out of the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Giants.

With southpaw Blake Snell on the mound for the Giants in Game 1, the lefty-hitting McMahon will head to the bench. Aaron Schunk will bat ninth and play third base during the matinee, though McMahon should be back in the lineup for the nightcap against right-hander Hayden Birdsong.

Arenado went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Friday's 10-8 extra-inning loss to the Nationals.

Arenado has gone just 5-for-25 (.200) since the All-Star break, but three of those hits have been homers. He's also added four walks in that seven-game span. The third baseman is up to 11 homers, 45 RBI, 41 runs scored, one stolen base, 14 doubles and a .266/.322/.393 slash line through 97 contests, and it looks like his power is trending in the right direction.

Westburg is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres.

Westburg will get a breather Saturday after going 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Friday's 6-4 loss to San Diego. Connor Norby will get the start at second base Saturday and bat eighth against Padres right-hander Michael King.

Vientos went 2-for-3 with a walk, a home run and three RBI in Friday's win over Atlanta.

The third baseman slugged a two-run homer off Charlie Morton in the third inning, one of three Mets long balls in the frame. Vientos has put together an impressive July, slashing .293/.341/.520 over 20 games with five doubles, four homers and 13 RBI as he solidifies his hold on the starting job at the hot corner.

Burger went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's win over the Brewers.

The slugger took Freddy Peralta deep in the first inning, helping the Marlins jump out to a 3-0 lead they never relinquished. Burger entered July with a disappointing ,601 OPS, but his bat has heated up with the weather -- in 19 games this month he's slashing .278/.333/.569 with six of his 13 homers on the season.
