  • Edgar Quero C | CHW

    White Sox's Edgar Quero: Tallies first career four-hit game

    Quero went 4-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 12-5 win over the Cubs.

    It was Quero's first career four-hit game, and it was the sixth time he's recorded at least three knocks this season. Although the 22-year-old switch-hitting backstop's fantasy upside remains limited by Chicago's lackluster lineup, he's becoming one of the lone bright spots for the White Sox. Since the start of June, Quero is slashing .301/.362/.430 with two home runs, six doubles and 13 RBI.

  • Rangers' Kyle Higashioka: Not playing Friday

    Higashioka (hamstring) is not in the Rangers' starting lineup against Atlanta on Friday.

    Higashioka will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a mild hamstring strain that he suffered during the Rangers' win over the Athletics on Tuesday. Jonah Heim will serve behind home plate and bat seventh.

  • Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Could be reinstated soon

    Manager Tony Mansolino said Friday that Rutschman (oblique) will catch the next two games at Triple-A Norfolk and could be reinstated soon after, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    An earlier report stated there was a possibility that Rutschman would return Friday, but he'll need at least a few more days before rejoining the Orioles. Rutschman hasn't appeared in an MLB game in over a month due to a strained left oblique. He's played in two rehab games so far, going 1-for-6 with a double, two walks and a strikeout.

  • Orioles' Jacob Stallings: Sitting again Friday

    Stallings is not in the Orioles' starting lineup against the Rockies on Friday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Stallings will sit for a second consecutive game while Alex Jackson serves behind home plate and bats ninth. Stallings has struggled at the plate this season and has gone 3-for-30 (.100) since the beginning of July.

  • Jair Camargo C | ATL

    Jair Camargo: Let go by Minnesota

    The Twins released Camargo on Thursday.

    The 26-year-old was designated for assignment by Minnesota earlier in the week, and he won't stick around the organization. Camargo struggled to a .212/.258/.319 slash line in 31 games with Triple-A St. Paul this season.

  • Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Sitting down Thursday

    O'Hoppe isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners, Jack Janes of TheSportingTribune.com reports.

  • Yainer Diaz C | HOU

    Astros' Yainer Diaz: Out of Houston lineup

    Diaz is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

    It looks to be a routine day off after Diaz started at catcher in each of the Astros' previous two contests. Victor Caratini will be behind the dish and bat second in Thursday's series opener.

  • Blue Jays' Alejandro Kirk: Taking seat Thursday

    Kirk isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Detroit.

    After going 6-for-19 with an RBI and two runs scored during Toronto's six-game homestand, Kirk will get a breather to begin the team's eight-game road trip. Tyler Heineman will fill in behind the plate and bat eighth for the Blue Jays.

  • Orioles' Jacob Stallings: Resting for day game

    Stallings is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.

    After starting behind the plate in both of the past two games, Stallings will get a breather as the Orioles wrap up their series in Cleveland with a matinee. Alex Jackson will handle catching duties for Baltimore on Thursday.

  • Bo Naylor C | CLE

    Guardians' Bo Naylor: Idle Thursday

    Naylor is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Orioles.

    Naylor will get a breather during Thursday's matinee after he started behind the dish in each of the first three games of the series versus Baltimore. Austin Hedges will handle catching duties for the Guardians while Naylor rests.
