Sheets went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk Friday against Colorado.

Sheets continued to help pour it on for the Padres in the seventh inning, blasting a 371-foot homer to right field to make it an 8-0 game. The lefty-hitting corner outfielder regularly starts on the bench and yields to Yuli Gurriel when San Diego is up against a southpaw, which limits his overall fantasy appeal, but Sheets is batting a strong .333 with two long balls, two doubles and eight RBI over 36 at-bats to open the campaign.

Bell went 1-for-4 with a walk and a two-run homer in Friday's 7-4 win over the Marlins.

Bell smacked his first home run since March 30 in the sixth inning, when he took the first pitch from Edward Cabrera deep to right field for a 395-foot, two-run home run. Bell has reached base safely in eight straight games, and over that span he has gone 6-for-24 with seven walks, five runs scored, one home run and three RBI.

Ozuna went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Rays.

Ozuna reduced the deficit to three runs in the eighth inning when he drove a 92-mph fastball from Edwin Uceta deep for a 425-foot solo homer to left-center field. Ozuna has logged home runs in back-to-back games and has three homers in his last six games. Over that six-game span, he's gone 10-for-25 with two walks, seven runs and six RBI.

Smith isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against Milwaukee.

Smith has been white-hot to start the season, slashing .400/.486/.667 through his first 35 plate appearances, but the D-backs won't risk him cooling down against the left-handed Jose Quintana on Friday. Randal Grichuk will serve as the team's DH instead and bat third.

Winker is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.

Winker and his career .667 OPS against left-handed pitchers will stay put in the dugout Friday while JP Sears toes the slab for the A's. Starling Marte will fill in as the Mets' designated hitter and bat fourth.

McCutchen is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Reds.

Bryan Reynolds (triceps) being unable to play the field continues to eat into McCutchen's playing time, as the Pirates don't appear willing to let him play the outfield every day. Adam Frazier is in right field and hitting eighth Friday.

Steer (shoulder) will begin working on throws from first base over the next few days, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

Steer has been limited to designated hitter duty in the early going this season, as he's still working his way back from a right shoulder injury that first cropped up last season. There's no timeline for when Steer will be able to handle defensive duties, but he's making progress.

Ozuna went 3-for-5 with a double and a two-run home run in Thursday's 4-2 extra-inning victory over the Phillies.

Ozuna doubled to left field for Atlanta's first hit of the game in the first inning, and he later crushed a two-run homer off Phillies right-hander Joe Ross to walk it off in the 11th frame following a lengthy rain delay. After beginning the season just 2-for-12, Ozuna is on a tear in April thus far, hitting .385 with two big flies, two doubles, five RBI and seven walks across 26 at-bats.

Schwarber went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 4-2 extra-inning loss to Atlanta.

Schwarber delivered a 449-foot moonshot in the third inning, tagging right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach for the righty's first run allowed on the season. The veteran slugger is tearing the cover off the ball to begin the season, batting .283 with six long balls and 12 RBI to go with 12 runs scored and eight walks over 56 plate appearances.

Bryant is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers.

Colorado will be holding out a few of their lineup regulars for a day game after a night game, as catcher Hunter Goodman and shortstop Ezequiel Tovar will join Bryant on the bench for the series finale. Nick Martini will serve as Colorado's designated hitter in place of Bryant.
