Moreno isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Moreno will get a chance to rest his legs after going 2-for-13 with three walks and two runs scored while playing in all four games of Arizona's last series against the Dodgers. Aramis Garcia will handle catching duties Friday while batting eighth.

Andujar isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

Andujar will grab a seat to begin the series after going 3-for-12 during San Diego's three-game set against the Phillies. Gavin Sheets will move into the DH role while Andujar sits, giving Ty France a start at first base.

Fermin isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

Fermin is still searching for his first hit since May 14, so the Padres will sit him down Friday in favor of Rodolfo Duran while they try to find offensive production from the catcher spot.

The Brewers recalled Fitzpatrick from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Fitzpatrick has turned in a 1.13 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through 16 innings at Nashville, and he's also performed well when called upon by the Brewers, allowing just one earned run in 5.2 frames. He'll now rejoin the big-league bullpen alongside Craig Yoho to replace DL Hall (pectoral) and Jake Woodford.

The Brewers recalled Yoho from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

With DL Hall (pectoral) landing on the injured list and Jake Woodford departing the 40-man roster Friday, Yoho will return to the majors to help plug the holes in Milwaukee's bullpen. The 26-year-old has dominated Triple-A hitters since first reaching Nashville in 2024, posting a 1.14 ERA and 0.96 WHIP and a 100:33 K:BB across 79 combined innings. However, he gave up seven earned runs over 8.2 frames with the big club last season.

The Brewers designated Woodford for assignment Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Woodford helped save the bullpen by logging three innings in Thursday's loss to the Giants, but he gave up four runs in the outing and holds a 6.94 ERA on the season. The righty is likely to clear waivers, and he would have the ability to decline an outright assignment.

The Brewers placed Hall on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left pec strain, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Hall had to leave an appearance Thursday against the Giants due to the injury, and an MRI revealed a strain. The 27-year-old lefty is expected to miss roughly 4-to-6 weeks, per Hogg, which lines him up to return right around the All-Star break.

O'Hearn is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest in Atlanta.

The left-handed-swinging O'Hearn has homered twice and reached base six times in four games since coming off the injured list, but he will get a breather Friday versus Atlanta southpaw Martin Perez. Marcell Ozuna will be the Pirates' designated hitter, Jhostynxon Garcia will patrol right field and Spencer Horwitz will handle first base.

McLain is not in the lineup for Friday's game in St. Louis.

McLain is just 3-for-34 at the dish over his last 11 contests to drop his season batting line to .198/.296/.322. He'll get a day to regroup while Edwin Arroyo handles shortstop for the Reds in Friday's series opener.

The Diamondbacks designated Rashi for assignment Friday.

The club needed to clear space on its 40-man roster for the addition of LuJames Groover. Rashi gave up three runs over 3.2 innings earlier this season with the Diamondbacks but has spent most of the year at Triple-A Reno, turning in a 1.03 ERA and 26:12 K:BB across 26.1 frames. He could draw some interest via waivers.
