Rogers (wrist) will start at catcher and bat eighth Saturday in Game 5 of the ALDS versus Cleveland.

Manzardo isn't in the starting lineup Saturday for Game 5 of the ALDS against the Tigers, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

With left-hander Tarik Skubal set to start the game for Detroit, the left-handed bat of Manzardo will step out of the starting nine Saturday. His absence will put David Fry in the DH spot, batting second.

Brennan isn't in the Guardians' starting lineup Saturday for Game 5 of the ALDS against the Tigers, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

President of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said Friday that Vesia left Game 5 of the NLDS versus San Diego due to a back injury, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Vesia recorded the final out of the seventh inning Friday but was taken out by a trainer after his back flared up on him while warming up for the eighth frame. The southpaw is slated to undergo further evaluation over the weekend, which will provide the team with a better idea of his availability for the NLCS against the Mets.

Vesia was removed from Game 5 of the NLDS against the Padres on Friday due to an apparent injury, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Musgrove underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow Friday, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.

Following an early exit from his appearance in Game 2 of the NL Wild Card Series on Oct. 2 due to an elbow injury, an MRI revealed that Musgrove would need to undergo Tommy John surgery before returning to the mound. The timing of his procedure gives him an outside chance to pitch toward the very end of next season, but the 31-year-old righty will most likely be sidelined until 2026.

Kim underwent labrum repair surgery on his right shoulder Thursday, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.

A return for the start of the 2025 campaign remains on the table, though no recovery timeline has been disclosed yet.

Hernandez will start in center field and bat seventh Friday in Game 5 of the NLDS against the Padres, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

Miguel Rojas (thigh) is absent from the lineup, as expected, and the Dodgers will shift Tommy Edman to shortstop while Hernandez occupies center field. Hernandez started at third base in Game 4 and went 2-for-4 with a run scored.

Freeman (ankle) is expected to start at first base and bat third Friday in Game 5 of the NLDS versus the Padres, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

Freeman had to be scratched from the Game 4 lineup due to lingering discomfort in his right ankle. He still needs to go through a pregame workout before the Dodgers lock him into Friday's lineup, but for now it looks like he'll gut it out in the winner-take-all contest. The veteran first baseman is 3-for-11 with three singles so far in the series.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Friday that Boyd will start Saturday in Game 5 of the ALDS against the Tigers, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
