McMahon went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to Washington.

McMahon's homer went an estimated 441 feet off MacKenzie Gore in the second inning. The second baseman has gone deep twice in the first eight games this season and is slugging .500, but he's also hitting just .200 over his first 30 at-bats.

Paredes went 3-for-5 with a grand slam during Friday's win over Oakland.

The 24-year-old slugger ripped a grand slam against Ken Waldichuk in the second inning. Paredes had just four hits through 17 at-bats before Friday's breakout performance. He now has two homers with six RBI and a 1:5 BB:K.

Ramos (groin) could return to the lineup for Double-A Birmingham next week, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Ramos is out of the lineup currently to start the year while dealing with groin soreness. The 21-year-old is rated as one of the top infield prospects in the system, and he has an outside chance of playing for the White Sox before the end of the 2023 campaign.

Moncada (foot) is starting at third base and batting cleanup for the White Sox in Friday's game versus the Pirates.

Moncada sat out Thursday after fouling a ball off his foot Wednesday, although it had been viewed more as a simple day of rest. He's off to a blazing start this season with a 1.302 OPS and two home runs in his first six contests.

Donaldson (hamstring) is likely to require an injured list stint, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

The hamstring injury which forced Donaldson from Wednesday's game against the Phillies was downplayed at the time, but he apparently hasn't made as much progress as anticipated. The team will make an official call on a potential IL move later Friday. DJ LeMahieu should be the Yanks' primary third baseman while Donaldson is out, but Oswaldo Cabrera and Isiah Kiner-Falefa are also options.

Donaldson (hamstring) is not in the Yankees' lineup for Friday's game in Baltimore.

The hamstring injury which forced Donaldson from Wednesday's game versus the Phillies was not deemed serious, but he'll be held out even after Thursday's off day. DJ LeMahieu will be at third base.

Urias is starting at third base and batting sixth for the Orioles on Friday against the Yankees.

Urias has now made more starts at third base (four) than Gunnar Henderson (three) this season and has an additional start under his belt at second base, although Henderson holds the edge in overall starts with six to Urias' five. It's a bit of a surprise, but the O's clearly value Urias' defense following a Gold Glove-winning campaign in 2022.

Devers went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, two RBI and a second run scored in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Tigers.

Devers had gone 13 plate appearances without recording a hit before his fourth-inning solo shot snapped the string of futility. The homer was his second of the season. Despite that hit drought Devers has been productive at the dish, going 10-for-31 with three doubles, two homers and four RBI while scoring seven runs in seven contests.

Nevin was activated from the 10-day injured list Friday and optioned to Triple-A Toledo, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Nevin went 11-for-18 on his rehab assignment, showing no ill effects of the oblique injury which landed him on the injured list to begin the season. He should get a shot with the big club eventually, but for now he'll get playing time with Toledo.

Davis went 3-for-6 with a home run, five RBI and two runs scored Thursday against the White Sox.

Davis' line isn't as impressive as it looks at first glance, as he hit a grand slam off Hanser Alberto in the top of the ninth inning in a blowout win. However, he managed an RBI knock one frame earlier with Gregory Santos on the mound. David Villar has gotten regular run ahead of Davis to begin the season, but so long as Brandon Crawford (forearm) is sidelined there should be room for both Villar and Davis in the lineup.
