      The Giants recalled Schmitt from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.

      Advice: The move corresponds with Marco Luciano being placed on the injured list due to a right hamstring strain. Since being optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on May 17, Schmitt has gone 14-for-44 with 12 runs, four home runs and 12 RBI. With both Luciano and Nick Ahmed (wrist) on the IL, Schmitt will likely form a platoon at shortstop with the lefty-hitting Brett Wisely. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:41 pm

    • Giants recall Casey Schmitt from Triple-A
      Giants recalled INF Casey Schmitt from Triple-A Sacramento.

      Advice: The 25-year-old infielder will get another opportunity with the big league club with Marco Luciano (hamstring) heading to the injured list on Friday. Schmitt has struggled in his limited action this season, hitting just .136 (3-for-22) with one RBI and a 5/0 K/BB ratio. Look for Brett Wisely to see the bulk of the action at shortstop with Luciano shelved. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:37 pm

    • Visits specialist
      Massey (back) visited a specialist Friday and received multiple injections, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Manager Matt Quatraro said the Royals will wait to see how Massey's back responds to the treatment before determining when he will head to the minors for a rehab assignment. For now, the 26-year-old infielder remains without a clear return timetable, and he isn't eligible for activation until Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:22 pm
    • Late addition to Friday's lineup
      Ibanez will start at second base and bat seventh against the Red Sox on Friday.

      Advice: Ibanez was initially slated to sit Friday, but he was inserted into the lineup after Mark Canha was scratched due to left hip soreness. Ibanez will go up against Boston right-hander Tanner Houck. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:22 pm
    • Day off Friday
      Paris isn't in the Angels' lineup Friday against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Paris went 0-for-3 during Thursday's loss to the Yankees, making him 0-for-8 across his last four games. Luis Rengifo will take Paris' place at the keystone Friday, allowing Luis Guillorme to start at third base while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:59 pm

      Brendan Donovan was scratched from the Cardinals’ starting lineup on Friday due to neck stiffness.

      Advice: The 27-year-old infielder is considered day-to-day for the time being. Dylan Carlson will take his place in the Cardinals’ lineup and will bat eighth against Aaron Nola and the Phillies while Matt Carpenter slides up to the leadoff spot in the team’s batting order.

    • Santiago Espinal delivers pinch-hit homer in win
      Santiago Espinal hit a two-run homer as a pinch-hitter to help propel the Reds past the Cubs 5-4 on Friday.

      Advice: Espinal hit for Will Benson against lefty Drew Smyly in the seventh and drove the first pitch he saw 385 feet to left-center. It would have been a homer in nine out of the 30 ballparks, says Statcast, Espinal is now batting .202/.261/.303 in 137 plate appearances for the Reds. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:40 pm
    • Tommy Edman (wrist) takes BP left-handed Friday
      Tommy Edman (wrist) was able to take batting practice from the left side of the plate for the first time on Friday.

      Advice: Edman is already eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list, but he’s still not close to being ready. The fact that he’s now able to face live pitching from both sides of the plate though is an encouraging sign and perhaps a minor league rehab assignment could be in the cards soon. He’s going to need plenty of at-bats there before he’s ready to join the Cardinals though and there’s no guarantee that he’ll even be ready before the end of June. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:44 pm
