Quero isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Kansas City.

Quero will receive a day off Saturday after going 2-for-7 across the first two games of the series. Reese McGuire will handle catching duties instead and bat ninth.

Jensen went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-0 win over the White Sox.

Jensen struck out and fouled out in his first two plate appearances but got to see Davis Martin for a third time in the seventh and took him deep on a first-pitch cutter. Jensen has struggled with strikeouts this season, but he's slugged four home runs with seven RBI, six runs scored and three walks across 39 plate appearances.

Valenzuela went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during the Blue Jays' 10-4 win over the Twins on Friday.

The Blue Jays rallied from a 4-0 run deficit to take the lead in the fourth inning, highlighted by Valenzuela's first big-league homer. The 25-year-old made his major-league debut this past Sunday against the White Sox and has shared time behind the plate with Tyler Heineman. That trend should continue for as long as Alejandro Kirk (thumb) is on the injured list, but Valenzuela could earn more starts for himself with strong play over the coming weeks.

Jeffers went 3-for-3 with a three-run home run during the Twins' 10-4 loss to the Blue Jays on Friday.

Jeffers gave the Twins an early lead with a three-run homer off Patrick Corbin in the first inning. It was Jeffers' first long shot of the season, and all six of his RBI in 2026 have come over his last three games. The 28-year-old backstop is looking to return to the form he showed during the 2024 regular season, when he recorded career highs in home runs (21) and RBI (64) in 465 plate appearances.

Diaz isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against Seattle.

Diaz will miss a second consecutive start Friday after starting each of Houston's previous five games, going 6-for-21 with four RBI and two runs scored in that span. Christian Vazquez will catch for Tatsuya Imai instead and bat ninth.

The Red Sox activated Seigler (knee) from the 10-day injured list Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Worcester.

Seigler began a rehab assignment with Worcester on Thursday after recovering from left knee patellar tendinopathy, and the Red Sox will keep him with their top minor-league affiliate rather than add him to the active big-league roster. The 26-year-old utility player was acquired via trade from the Brewers over the offseason.

Jensen is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox.

Jensen had started the last two contests at catcher and the last three games overall, but he'll get some rest in Thursday's series opener. Jac Caglianone is serving as the Royals' designated hitter, and Lane Thomas will get the start in right field.

Dingler is absent from the lineup for Thursday's tilt in Minnesota.

It's a day game Thursday as the Twins and Tigers finish off a four-game series, so Dingler will get some rest. Jake Rogers is doing the catching and batting ninth as Detroit attempts to avoid the sweep.

Langeliers is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.

Langeliers started each of the Athletics' first 11 games of the season, so he's earned a breather for Thursday's matinee in the Bronx. The A's will turn to Austin Wynns at catcher in the rubber match.

Jeffers is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Tigers.

Jeffers was behind the dish for the past two games, so he'll get a breather in Thursday's matinee. Victor Caratini is catching and batting fifth as the Twins attempt a four-game sweep.
