Bailey went 2-for-4 with a double in Friday's 2-0 win over the Marlins.

Bailey hit his first double since May 4 in the second inning and added a single in the eighth. With that, he recorded his first multi-hit effort since May 6, marking his fifth of the season. The 26-year-old catcher owns a lackluster .183/.242/.268 slash line with 15 runs scored, 15 RBI, nine extra-base hits -- including one home run -- and a 32.9 percent strikeout rate across 158 plate appearances this season.

Stephenson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-2 win over the Cubs.

Stephenson's two-run blast in the fourth inning turned out to be the game-winning hit. He's gone deep in three of the last four games, going 8-for-16 during that stretch, and has reached base safely in seven consecutive contests.

Ruiz isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Diamondbacks, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

Ruiz will get a chance to clear his head Friday after going 1-for-13 during Washington's most recent series against the Mariners. Riley Adams will catch for starter Jake Irvin and bat seventh.

The Marlins selected Hernandez's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.

Hernandez has a .220/.319/.454 slash line with nine home runs and six steals through 41 games with Jacksonville this season, and he'll now receive his first taste of the big leagues. The 25-year-old was once viewed as a top prospect, but his contact skills haven't held up in the upper minors, as evidenced by the low batting average and 35 percent strikeout rate at Triple-A this year.

Hernandez will be promoted from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Jeremiah Geiger of Locked on Marlins reports.

Hernandez was once a notable prospect in the Rays system, but he has become a bat-first right-handed hitter who made it to minor-league free agency in 2024. The 25-year-old left fielder/designated hitter has slashed .220/.319/.454 with nine home runs, six steals and a 35 percent strikeout rate in 41 games at Triple-A this season.

Murphy went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and two walks in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Phillies.

Murphy got Atlanta on the board in the sixth inning with an RBI single before cutting the deficit to 4-3 with a 412-foot solo blast off Matt Strahm in the eighth, his ninth homer this season. It was a much-needed effort from the 30-year-old catcher, who'd gone just 1-for-13 over his previous five games while splitting catching duties with Drake Baldwin. Overall, Murphy's slashing .228/.333/.500 with 20 RBI and 14 runs scored across 132 plate appearances this season.

Marchan went 1-for-2 with a homer, three RBI and an additional run scored in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader with Atlanta.

Marchan opened the scoring Thursday with his first home run of the season, a two-run shot off AJ Smith-Shawver (elbow) in the third inning. Marchan would later drive in what would prove to be the game-winning run in the eighth, when he was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. The 26-year-old backstop has seen limited playing time behind J.T. Realmuto this season, slashing just .152/.317/.242 with four runs scored and five RBI across 41 plate appearances.

Baldwin is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Phillies.

With a .337 batting average and .912 OPS in 105 plate appearances on the season, Baldwin has emerged as Atlanta's preferred option behind the plate, despite the fact that Sean Murphy is in the third year of a six-year, $73 million extension and has performed well in his own right (.783 OPS) through the first two months of the campaign. Atlanta manager Brian Snitker seems to have settled on a platoon between the two backstops, so the left-handed-hitting Baldwin will give way to the right-handed-hitting Murphy behind the plate while southpaw Cristopher Sanchez takes the hill for the Phillies in Game 1. Baldwin will re-enter the lineup for the nightcap to face off against right-hander Zack Wheeler.

Realmuto is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus Atlanta.

Rafael Marchan will handle catching duties for the first game of the day, but Realmuto should be back behind the dish for the nightcap, when he'll form a battery with right-hander Zack Wheeler. Realmuto had started in each of the Phillies' previous four games and went 2-for-17 at the plate, bringing his batting average down to a career-low .228 for the season.

Stephenson went 3-for-4 in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to Kansas City.

Stephenson recorded his second three-hit effort in the last three games and has hit safely in four of the last five. He's 9-for-22 (.409) with four extra-base hits during that span, which increased his average 70 points from a season-low .173 to .243.
