Raleigh went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a walk, three RBI, four runs scored and a stolen base in Fridays 9-4 win over the Cubs.

Raleigh went deep in the first and seventh innings, recording his sixth multi-homer game of the season. Through 16 June contests, he's tallied 11 extra-base hits, 19 RBI, 13 runs scored and three steals. The 28-year-old leads the majors in home runs (29), is tied for first in RBI (63) and ranks second in OPS (1.025) across 319 plate appearances in what continues to be an MVP-caliber first half.

Garver went 2-for-4 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Friday's 9-4 win over the Cubs.

Garver entered Friday with just one home run on the year but went deep in both the sixth and ninth innings. The 34-year-old is now 6-for-23 with six RBI through six June contests and carries a modest five-game hitting streak. On the season, he's slashing .216/.321/.319 with three homers, 16 RBI, 12 runs scored and three steals across 134 plate appearances while serving in a part-time role at catcher and designated hitter.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Milwaukee.

Jeffers was struck in the hand by a foul tip Tuesday and missed Wednesday's contest because of it. Despite returning Thursday, Jeffers will get the night off Friday. Christian Vazquez will fill in behind the dish and bat ninth.

Caratini went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Thursday's 6-4 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

Caratini delivered a game-tying blast off Mason Miller in the eighth inning. This was Caratini's second straight contest with a homer, and he's hit safely in his last three games. The catcher is at a .261/.327/.405 slash line with five long balls, 17 RBI, 17 runs scored and seven doubles over 171 plate appearances. In addition to his catching duties, he's picked up starts at first base and designated hitter as manager Joe Espada continues to find room for him in the lineup. That playing time should remain steady as long as Houston's outfield is thinned out by injuries, limiting the options for players available to take turns at DH.

MacIver went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double and a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 extra-inning win over the Astros.

MacIver opened the scoring with his first big-league homer, a second-inning solo shot. This was his second multi-hit effort, and he's now batting .237 with three RBI, three runs scored, two steals and three doubles over 13 contests. MacIver and Austin Wynns will continue to share catching duties while Shea Langeliers (oblique) is out.

Jeffers went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a two-RBI double during Thursday's 12-5 win over the Reds.

Jeffers missed Wednesday's contest with a bruised hand but re-entered the lineup Thursday and had a monster game, setting a season high in RBI. He launched a two-run homer in the eighth inning off Taylor Rogers, marking the catcher's fifth long ball of the season. Since the start of June, Jeffers has gone 11-for-43 (.256) with two home runs, seven RBI and five runs scored.

Kirk went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs and an RBI single in Thursday's 9-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Kirk entered the game having gone 0-for-16 over his last four starts. He busted out and made a major impact Thursday, belting solo home runs in the second and seventh innings before driving in another run in the eighth. Kirk is up to seven home runs on the year, which surpasses his total from 2024 (five), and his .313 batting average is second best in the majors among qualified catchers behind Will Smith (.333).

Wynns isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Astros.

Wynns will take a seat for Thursday's series finale after going 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored Wednesday. While he rests, Willie MacIver will take over at catcher and bat eighth.

Dingler isn't in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against Pittsburgh, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Dingler will grab a seat on the bench for the final half of Thursday's festivities after going 1-for-3 with two runs scored in a win during Game 1. Jake Rogers will take over behind the plate and bat eighth.

Quero is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals.

After starting at either catcher or designated hitter in each of Chicago's last three contests, Quero will get a breather for the first game of the day. Expect Quero to replace Kyle Teel behind the dish for the second contest of the doubleheader, though Teel could still stick in the starting nine as the White Sox's DH.
