Cabrera went 2-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 7-2 loss to the Athletics.

Cabrera had half of his team's hits as the Tigers once again looked anemic offensively. The 36-year-old has mostly done his part with a .290 batting average through 42 games, though his lack of power has been troublesome. Cabrera has just one home run so far, and his .361 slugging percentage would be the lowest of his 15-year MLB career.

Jimenez (ankle) went 2-for-5 with a solo home run for Triple-A Charlotte on Friday.

Jimenez has a hit in all four games while on a rehab assignment, going 6-for-16 with two extra-base hits and three runs scored. After starting the rehab stint with a game as the designated hitter, Jimenez played left field the next three games, including a full nine innings Thursday and Friday. If he's not back up with the White Sox this weekend, he should be up by Monday.

Reyes went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Pirates.

Reyes opened the scoring with the long ball in the first inning. Reyes has now hit a homer in four of his last five games, accounting for all but one of his hits in that span. He has 14 homers and six doubles this season, hitting .266 through 45 games. He doesn't draw many walks -- earning only eight free passes compared to 40 strikeouts.

McCutchen went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, two walks and two runs scored Friday against Colorado.

McCutchen launched a two-run homer in the third inning to tie the ballgame, registering his sixth home run of the season. The veteran outfielder has reached base safely in eight of his last 11 contests, and he'll aim to keep it rolling at the dish in the final two games of the series.

Harper went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Friday's win over the Rockies.

Harper extended his team's lead to three in the fourth inning with a two-run double to right center. The 26-year-old has struggled to a .222 average through 44 games so far in 2019, though he's registered a base knock in each of his past three contests, perhaps indicating that he's getting ready to turn the corner.

Canha went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-2 win over the Tigers.

Getting the start in center field and hitting eighth, Canha took Daniel Norris deep in the fifth inning for his fifth homer of the year -- and third in four games since recovering from a wrist sprain. The veteran outfielder is now slashing .212/.354/.519 on the year through 22 games.

X-rays on Turner's left shin returned negative, but he'll be held out of the starting lineup Saturday against Cincinnati, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Turner is nursing a bruised left shin, so he'll get Saturday off to recover. Max Muncy could see time at the hot corner until Turner is cleared to return.

Turner left Friday's game against Cincinnati with a left shin contusion, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Turner fouled a ball off his left shin during an at-bat in the third inning. He'll be considered day-to-day until further notice.

Turner left Friday night's game against the Reds after fouling a ball off his left leg, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

The exact location of Turner's injury is not yet known, though it looked like he hurt his left shin, per Castillo. David Freese replaced Turner at the hot corner.

Belt (knee) is starting at first base and batting fourth Friday against the Diamondbacks, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Belt was held out of Wednesday's lineup due to discomfort in his knee, but he's ready to roll after a few days off. He's slashing .192/.364/.423 with a homer and four RBI over his last 10 games.
