Bethancourt went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored and an RBI on Friday against the Dodgers.

Bethancourt turned in his second consecutive multi-hit game and third in his last four starts. After slugging five homers in April, Bethancourt has only two long balls -- and six extra-base hits overall -- across 18 games in May. Nevertheless, he's maintained a .275 batting average with five RBI and seven runs scored in that same span.

Rutschman went 3-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in Friday's loss to Texas.

Rutschman homered in the first inning and was one of just two Orioles with multiple hits in the blowout loss. Since his last multi-hit game May 13, he was hitting just .171 (7-for-41) over an 11-game stretch. Despite a streaky month, Rutschman is still sporting a strong .274/.402/.441 slash line with a 41:31 BB:K and 15 extra-base hits this season.

Langeliers is absent from the lineup Friday against the Astros.

Carlos Perez will start at catcher and Brent Rooker will serve as Oakland's designated hitter. Langeliers has slashed just .169/.250/.254 with one home run over his last 80 plate appearances dating back to April 30.

Thaiss is out of the lineup Friday versus the Marlins.

Chad Wallach will catch and bat eighth with left-hander Jesus Luzardo set to take the mound for Miami. Thaiss is enjoying a strong season but probably will continue to sit against most southpaws.

The Blue Jays placed Jansen on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left groin strain.

Jansen suffered a groin injury while running to first base Wednesday against Tampa Bay, and he will now officially be forced to sit out until early June. Alejandro Kirk will likely fill in as Toronto's primary catcher while Jansen is on the IL, and Tyler Heineman -- who was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday -- figures to be Kirk's backup.

Heineman was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo by the Blue Jays on Friday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

He's replacing the injured Danny Jansen (groin) on the roster. Heineman could get the occasional start while Jansen is on the mend, but Alejandro Kirk will be Toronto's primary catcher.

Heim is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Baltimore.

It looks to be a routine day off for Heim after he started each of the previous four contests. Sandy Leon has seemed to become Jon Gray's personal catcher of late and will be behind the plate again for him Friday.

Kirk went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's loss against the Rays.

Kirk was the lone Blue Jay to record more than one hit in the contest. After a slow start to the season, the 24-year-old backstop has started to heat up, going 9-for-25 in his last seven games. Kirk's now slashing .248/.360/.333 with two home runs, 11 runs scored and 12 RBI through 139 plate appearances. Kirk is certainly capable of providing offense from the catcher position, and he could see an expanded role depending on the severity of Danny Jansen's groin injury.

Raleigh went 2-for-3 with a bases-loaded walk and a run in a win over the Athletics on Wednesday.

The slugging backstop got it done via the small-ball route Wednesday, and his fourth-inning walk with the bases jammed extended the Mariners' lead to 5-0. Raleigh's multi-hit effort was also his first since May 15, but he's enjoying a productive second half of May that includes a .333 average, a double, two home runs and six RBI across his last eight games.

Bethancourt is not in the lineup Thursday against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

Bethancourt went 2-for-4 and caught the full game in Tampa Bay's win over the Jays on Wednesday night. Francisco Mejia will start behind the plate and bat ninth in Thursday's afternoon tilt.
