Sheets isn't in the Padres' lineup for Saturday's matchup versus Pittsburgh.

The lefty-hitting Sheets will begin Saturday's game on the bench with Pittsburgh sending southpaw Bailey Falter to the mound. Sheets has just 10 at-bats against left-handed pitchers this season, going 2-for-10 with a double, an RBI, a walk and four strikeouts. With Sheets out of the lineup, Luis Campusano -- who was called up from Triple-A earlier in the day -- is getting a turn at DH.

Sheets went 3-for-5 with a home run and an additional RBI in Friday's 9-4 victory versus Pittsburgh.

Sheets put the Padres on the board in the fourth inning with a solo shot to right-center field and added a run-scoring single in the fifth. The three-hit effort came on the heels of a seven-game slump during which the veteran infielder/outfielder went 1-for-23 with three strikeouts. Sheets has collected hits in bunches this season -- he has more multi-hit performances (nine) than contests with one hit (five). Overall, he's slashing .281/.343/.461 with four home runs, 14 RBI, 11 runs and one stolen base over 99 plate appearances this season.

Stephenson started at designated hitter and went 2-for-3 with a walk, two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 6-1 win over the Nationals.

Stephenson was activated off the 10-day injured list and made his season debut after rehabbing an oblique injury. He caught several innings while on a rehab assignment, and having him DH was likely a way to slowly integrate Stephenson back into action. He was often used as a DH in past seasons to get his bat in the lineup as much as possible.

Smith is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Philadelphia.

It's southpaw Jesus Luzardo on the hill for the Phillies, so the left-handed-hitting Smith will begin the festivities on the bench. Randal Grichuk is in the designated hitter spot and batting third in the series opener.

The Reds activated Stephenson (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

Stephenson is set to make his season debut after missing the first month-plus of the campaign with a left oblique strain. The Reds will carry three catcher for now, as Jose Trevino and Austin Wynns have both played well. Stephenson will be at the top of the catcher depth chart for the Reds but should be eased back into primary catcher duties.

Flores went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a run scored during Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Rockies.

The 33-year-old lined his first double of the season into right field in the sixth inning, driving in Willy Adames before coming around to score himself. Flores recorded his 29th RBI on Thursday, which ranks third in the majors. The designated hitter also logged his first multi-hit performance since April 23, snapping an 0-for-15 skid over his previous four games. He's now slashing .239/.289/.434 with 14 runs scored, seven home runs and a 7:28 BB:K across 121 plate appearances.

Ohtani (elbow) will continue throwing off a mound twice per week going forward, per MLB.com.

Ohtani took a brief pause in his throwing program upon going on the paternity list April 18, but he returned to bullpen work April 26 and is expected to resume his previous throwing schedule, which included twice-per-week bullpens, moving forward. The two-way star continues to feature as the Dodgers' leadoff hitter and primary DH, but it remains uncertain when he'll make his debut as a pitcher for Los Angeles.

Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and three RBI in Thursday's 8-3 win at Pittsburgh.

Suzuki broke a 2-2 with a solo blast during the fifth inning and added some insurance with a two-run shot in the fifth. It's the second two-homer performance of the season for the 30-year-old, who has hit three long balls over the past three games. Suzuki has been one of the better hitters in baseball early in 2025 with nine home runs, 28 RBI and a .295/.365/.625 slash line through 28 games.

Pozo said X-rays on his left wrist were negative Thursday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

There was fear for the health of Pozo's wrist after he collided with Cincinnati's TJ Friedl at home plate during Thursday's game in Cincinnati, but the catcher appears to have avoided a serious injury. Pozo completed the game, going 1-for-3, and he finished 3-for-9 during the four-game series in Cincinnati.

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

Yelich will get the afternoon off after starting every game since April 15. William Contreras will occupy the designated-hitter spot Thursday, while Eric Haase will do the catching and bat ninth.
