Manager Brian Snitker said Saturday that Quantrill will work as a long reliever going forward, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Chris Sale's return from the injured list left Quantrill as the odd man out of Atlanta's rotation, but the 30-year-old righty will remain with the big club as a multi-inning relief option. He's given up 12 earned runs in only eight innings since joining Atlanta, however, so he'll most likely be reserved for low-leverage situations.

Myers was pulled from Saturday's game against the Mets with right side discomfort, Stephen Strom of Marlins Radio Network reports.

After striking out during his at-bat in the first inning, Myers was replaced in the field by Jakob Marsee. The severity of Myers' injury has yet to be determined, but the Marlins' training staff will take a closer look at him and should provide more information soon.

The Orioles reinstated Poteet (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Saturday and sent him outright to Triple-A Norfolk, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Poteet surrendered five earned runs in 2.2 innings during his lone appearance of the season for the Orioles on April 20, and he landed on the injured list shortly afterward with right shoulder inflammation. Now fully healthy, he'll stay put in the minor leagues while also giving up his spot on the Orioles' 40-man roster. If he bounces back well at Norfolk, the 31-year-old righty may receive another look with Baltimore at some point in September.

Stanton isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

Stanton will receive a day off Saturday after going 0-for-7 with a run scored and three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. It will instead be Jasson Dominguez, Trent Grisham and Cody Bellinger in the outfield for New York, with Aaron Judge working as the DH.

Fermin isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins.

Fermin will get a day to regroup Saturday after going just 1-for-17 with two walks over his last seven games. Elias Diaz will take over at catcher and bat ninth.

Moore isn't in the starting nine against Houston on Saturday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Moore has recently seen his playing time surge back up, as he came into Saturday having started four of the Angels' previous five games, going 4-for-15 with a home run during that span. However, he'll begin on the bench Saturday while Luis Rengifo starts at second base.

Bailey isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Baltimore, Andres Soto of MLB.com reports.

Bailey has notched hits in back-to-back contests, but he'll step out of the starting nine Saturday while Andrew Knizner catches for right-hander Carson Seymour and bats ninth.

The Pirates placed Simon on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a dislocated left shoulder.

Simon suffered the injury on a slide into home plate during his return to the majors Friday, and he'll now need to wait at least 10 more days before getting another chance to suit up for the Pirates. Cam Devanney was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move to replenish Pittsburgh's infield depth.

Arias (wrist) isn't starting against Seattle on Saturday.

Arias was hit on the right wrist by a pitch during Friday's contest and had to leave the game. He took X-rays that came back negative, but the versatile IF/OF will nonetheless begin on the bench Saturday. Brayan Rocchio is starting at shortstop in his stead.

India is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus Detroit.

India had started in each of the Royals' past 12 games, batting a paltry .179 (7-for-39) with one home run and three RBI during that stretch. He'll get at least a partial day to reset Saturday while Michael Massey plays second base and Adam Frazier serves as the DH.
