Jorge Soler

ATL Right Fielder #2

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Jorge Soler (hamstring) returned to the Braves’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Nationals.

The 32-year-old slugger missed each of the team’s previous seven ballgames due to a left hamstring strain. With Michael Harris II back in the fold now, Soler has slid down to the second spot in the Braves’ lineup for his matchup against Nationals’ southpaw MacKenzie Gore on Friday evening in Atlanta.

Jackson Chourio

MIL Left Fielder #11

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Jackson Chourio is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s contest against the Astros in Houston.

It looks to be nothing more than a routine day off for the dynamic 22-year-old outfielder. William Contreras is also getting a breather for the Brewers in this one. Sal Frelick will start in right field and bat seventh while Gary Sanchez does the catching and hits sixth for the Brewers against Astros’ right-hander Tatsuya Imai on Sunday.

Dillon Dingler

DET Catcher #13

Dillon Dingler is not in the Tigers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the White Sox in Chicago.

Dingler has been a nearly everyday player for the Tigers in the past month, often serving as the designated hitter when he’s not behind the dish. He’ll get a full day off in this one though. He also may see less time as the designated hitter going forward with Kerry Carpenter returning from the injured list on Sunday.

Gage Workman

DET 3rd Baseman #41

Tigers optioned INF Gage Workman to Triple-A Toledo.

With Kerry Carpenter returning from the injured list on Sunday, there was no longer room for Workman’s left-handed bat on the Tigers’ bench. The 26-year-old struggled to make consistent contact during his time with the big league club, slashing a woeful .158/.158/.395 with a pair of homers, five RBI and a cringe-inducing 16/0 K/BB ratio in 38 plate appearances.

Kerry Carpenter

DET Right Fielder #30

Tigers activated OF Kerry Carpenter from the 10-day injured list.

The 28-year-old slugger returns to a struggling Tigers’ lineup after just two minor league rehab games at Triple-A Toledo. He’ll serve as the team’s designated hitter and bat cleanup against Sean Burke for Sunday’s series finale against the White Sox in Chicago. Before landing on the injured list, Carpenter was hitting .216/.299/.451 with six homers and 17 RBI in his first 117 plate appearances.

Dietrich Enns

BAL Relief Pitcher #71

Orioles sent LHP Dietrich Enns outright to Triple-A Norfolk.

The 35-year-old southpaw was designated for assignment earlier in the week, but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the O’s at the Triple-A level. Enns posted a 3.94 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 13/11 K/BB ratio over 16 innings in 13 appearances with the Orioles.

Angel Zerpa

MIL Relief Pitcher #61

Brewers transferred LHP Angel Zerpa to the 60-day injured list.

This was nothing more than a procedural move to free up a spot on the team’s 40-man roster for the return of Rob Zastryzny on Sunday. Zerpa underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery in early May and will be shelved until the middle of the 2027 season.

Rob Zastryzny

MIL Relief Pitcher #58

Brewers activated LHP Rob Zastryzny from the 60-day injured list.

The 34-year-old left-hander had been shelved since suffering a left shoulder strain during the World Baseball Classic. Zastryzny posted a 2.45 ERA and a 20/10 K/BB ratio over 22 innings with the Brewers during the 2025 campaign. His return should provide a major boost to the Brewers’ bullpen.

Carlos Rodriguez

MIL Relief Pitcher #27

Brewers optioned RHP Carlos Rodriguez to Triple-A Nashville.

With Rob Zastryzny returning from the injured list on Sunday, someone in the Brewers’ bullpen needed to get the boot to make room and unfortunately Rodriguez was the odd man out this time around. The 24-year-old hurler holds a 3.86 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and an 8/4 K/BB ratio across 9 1/3 innings in four appearances with the Brewers this season.

Ceddanne Rafaela

BOS Center Fielder #3

Ceddanne Rafaela was scratched from the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Sunday’s battle against the Guardians.

No word yet on the reason for the late scratch, but Connor Wong will enter the lineup as the designated hitter to replace Rafaela. Expect the Red Sox to provide an update on his status shortly.

Eric Cerantola

KC Relief Pitcher #61

Royals optioned RHP Eric Cerantola to Triple-A Omaha.

Cerantola’s stay with the Royals lasted just two games this time around, giving up a solo homer and striking out a pair of batters in his lone inning of work against the Rangers on Friday. He’ll continue to function as extra bullpen depth at the Triple-A level for the Royals.
