    • Day-to-day with undisclosed injury
      Reds manager David Bell said Friday that Stephenson is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury, Chris Renkel of Local 12 in Cincinnati reports.

      Advice: Stephenson caught on Monday and served as the team's designated hitter Tuesday but has now missed two straight starts sandwiched around Thursday's team off day. It's not clear exactly what Stephenson is dealing with, but the Reds brought up Austin Wynns as protection at catcher. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
       
    • Absent from lineup
      Horwitz is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in Cleveland.

      Advice: After starting each of the first five games upon his promotion, Horwitz has now been on the bench three times across the last seven contests, including twice against right-handers. Orelvis Martinez is getting the call at second base Friday. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
       
    • Making first start Friday
      Martinez will start at second base and bat eighth in Friday's game versus the Guardians.

      Advice: It will be the first major-league start for Martinez, who was on the bench for each of the first two contests following his promotion. The 22-year-old is one of the better power-hitting prospects in baseball, but he does struggle to make contact and isn't regarded as a great defender. Getting him playing time does not appear to be a priority for the Blue Jays during this stint, but he will have a chance to show what he can do Friday. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago

    • MRI comes back clean
      Torres (groin) was deemed day-to-day after an MRI came back clean Friday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: Torres was lifted from Thursday's game precautionarily due to right groin discomfort and an MRI confirmed that the injury isn't any thing serious. Still, Torres may need a day or two for recovery, which could open up more work for Oswaldo Cabrera and Jahmai Jones. Rotowire.com 42 minutes ago

    • Riding pine against LHP
      Canzone is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Miami.

      Advice: Canzone will yield to Mitch Haniger in right field on Friday, avoiding a lefty-on-lefty matchup with Marlins' starter Trevor Rogers. Canzone owns a .709 OPS with six home runs this season. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago
       
    • Not facing lefty
      Rojas is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: For the second straight night, the Mariners will face a left-handed starting pitcher and keep Rojas out of the starting lineup. Dylan Moore will bat second and play third base. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago

    • Spencer Horwitz not in Blue Jays lineup on Friday
      Spencer Horwitz is not in the Blue Jays’ starting lineup for Friday night’s contest against the Guardians in Cleveland.

      Advice: The versatile 26-year-old has found his way into the lineup against most opposing right-handed pitchers, but that’s not the case against Carlos Carrasco on Friday night. Horwitz has hit well in his limited time with the Jays — slashing .353/.450/.412 with three RBI and a 5/6 K/BB ratio over his first 40 plate appearances. Orelvis Martinez will start in his place at second base and bat eighth for the Jays. Rotoworld 48 minutes ago
       
    • Orelvis Martinez set for big league debut Friday
      Orelvis Martinez will make his major league debut on Friday night against the Guardians.

      Advice: The 22-year-old top prospect was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, but didn’t see any game action during his first two days with the Jays. He’ll start at second base on Friday night and will bat eighth against Guardians’ right-hander Carlos Carrasco. Martinez had been hitting .260/.343/.523 with 16 homers and 46 RBI over 63 games at Triple-A Buffalo prior to his promotion. Rotoworld 49 minutes ago
