Jeffers went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, an RBI double, an RBI single and an additional run scored during Thursday's 12-3 win over the Tigers.

Although Thursday's contest was called after seven innings due to rain, Jeffers and the Twins' offense had no trouble putting up runs. The 27-year-old drove in four of those runs, highlighted by a two-run home run off Kenta Maeda in the fourth inning. Jeffers' round tripper was his 15th of the year, which is a career-high tally. The outing was also Jeffers' first multi-hit performance in 11 games and marked his second four-RBI game of 2024.

Rutschman isn't in the Orioles' lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.

Langeliers isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Thursday's game against the Angels.

Langeliers will get a breather after he went 1-for-4 and stole a base during Wednesday's win. Kyle McCann will start behind the plate instead and bat fifth.

Fry is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

Heim is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Padres.

It's an afternoon game Thursday after Heim had caught each of the first two games of the series, so he will begin this one on the bench. Andrew Knizner will be behind the dish for the Rangers.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Orioles on Wednesday.

The Mariners' offense remained mired in a funk Wednesday, but Raleigh prevented a shutout defeat with a sixth-inning, 423-foot shot to center for the final run of the night for either team. The slugging backstop has now left the yard in three of his last eight games, putting him halfway to the career-best total of 30 homers he established last season.

Langeliers went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run in a win over the Angels on Wednesday.

The power-hitting backstop showed off the wheels following his sixth-inning single, working his way into scoring position with a steal of second and subsequently racing home on Brett Harris' knock for the Athletics' fifth and final run of the night. Langeliers, who now has a career-high four stolen bases, has hit safely in three of his last four games, and while he maintains a forgettable .204 average and .256 OBP, he's sporting a solid .427 slugging percentage thanks to having laced 25 of his 52 hits for extra bases.

Vazquez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 9-2 loss to the Tigers.

The veteran catcher got the Twins on the board in the third with a long blast to left-center field off Keider Montero for this third home run of the season. Wednesday was Vazquez's first game with an RBI since June 12 and his third game with multiple hits since that date. He's struggled mightily as a whole on the year, slashing .189/.214/.277 with 12 RBI, 11 runs and a 5:37 BB:K in 171 plate appearances.

Jansen missed the first three games of the series while tending to more important matters. He's back in the lineup for Thursday's finale, batting second and occupying the designated hitter spot.
