Heim isn't in the Rangers' lineup for Saturday's game versus the Mariners.

After collecting four hits across his last four games, Heim will take a seat on the bench Saturday while Carson Kelly catches for right-hander Dane Dunning.

Singleton is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

Singleton will dodge a same-side matchup with lefty Reid Detmers, yielding to Victor Caratini at first base. Singleton is slashing .238/.319/.392 on the year, and he's 8-for-22 (.364) in his last eight games.

Heyward is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

The lefty-hitting Heyward will take a seat Saturday against southpaw Reid Detmers and the Halos. In his last seven games, Heyward is 7-for-20 (.350) with two home runs. Mauricio Dubon will bat ninth and play left field.

The Red Sox recalled Gasper from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Gasper will serve as the roster replacement for Rafael Devers (shoulder), who landed on the 10-day injured list. The former has spent the majority of the season in the minors, slashing an impressive .328/.439/.531 with 12 homers and 58 RBI across 380 plate appearances between Double-A and Triple-A, though he doesn't project to see much playing time while in Boston.

Dunning is listed as the probable pitcher for Saturday's game against the Mariners.

Dunning replaces Max Scherzer (undisclosed) as the Rangers' starter. Dunning will be making his first MLB appearance since Aug. 30, but the 29-year-old is relatively stretched out, having thrown between 56 and 72 pitches in his last three appearances with Triple-A Round Rock. He has a 5.03 ERA and 74:31 K:BB across 68 innings in 14 starts with the Rangers this season.

The Red Sox placed Devers on the 10-day injured list Saturday with left shoulder inflammation, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Devers received an MRI on both of his shoulders Saturday and will officially land on the IL with a left shoulder issue, even though manager Alex Cora said Friday that the third baseman's right shoulder was the main concern. Either way, his move to the injured list will officially put an early end to his season. Romy Gonzalez and Nick Sogard will split reps at third base the rest of the way, and Mickey Gasper will come up from Triple-A Worcester to fill the open spot on the active roster.

Scherzer will not start as scheduled Saturday versus the Mariners due to a possible injury, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Scherzer recently missed more than a month due to shoulder problems, though the team's reason for pulling him off his start Saturday remains unknown. Dane Dunning will start against Seattle in Scherzer's place.

Drury is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Astros.

Drury is absent from the starting nine for a second straight game, yielding to Jack Lopez at second base. Drury had started two consecutive games after missing five straight contests with a hamstring injury. It's unclear if his back-to-back absences are related to the hamstring injury.

Adams (knee) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Astros.

Adams was scratched from Friday's lineup due to right knee soreness and is out of the starting nine once again Saturday. The severity of the injury is unclear, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Adams get Sunday off as well considering the Angels have a team off day Monday. Gustavo Campero will bat eighth and play right field Saturday.

Moniak (hand) is batting sixth and playing center field Saturday against the Astros.

Moniak hasn't logged an at-bat since being hit in the hand by a pitch Sept. 15, but his inclusion in the lineup Saturday indicates he's over the injury. The center fielder is slashing .222/.226/.386 in 402 plate appearances this season.
