The Cardinals activated Donovan (groin) from the 10-day injured list Friday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Donovan missed just under a month of action with a left groin strain, but he's ready to go after playing two rehab games with Double-A Springfield. The 28-year-old will regain his role as the Cardinals' everyday second baseman, which will likely push Thomas Saggese back to the bench most days.

Vargas is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Minnesota.

Vargas will yield to Tim Tawa at first base on Friday for a second straight game. Vargas has six hits in his last 17 at-bats, a stretch that spans six games.

Marte (foot) is batting second and playing second base Friday against Minnesota.

Marte has been dealing with a bruised right foot he picked up Wednesday, and after testing out the injury pregame, he's part of the starting lineup. Marte is 6-for-35 (.171) with two home runs and a 4:6 BB:K in September.

India is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies.

India made three straight starts after being activated from the injured list Tuesday, and he'll get a breather Friday. The second baseman went 3-for-10 with six strikeouts during those three starts. Michael Massey will play the keystone and bat seventh.

Gimenez will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Friday's game versus the Orioles.

Gimenez has played six innings at shortstop this season, but this will be his first start at the position since 2022. It's possible he could play the position more regularly down the stretch while Bo Bichette (knee) is sidelined. With Gimenez at shortstop, Isiah Kiner-Falefa will be at second base for the Blue Jays on Friday.

Marte (foot) is expected to be in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Friday's game against Minnesota, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

Marte departed Wednesday's game against the Giants with a bruised right foot. After X-rays came back negative, manager Torey Lovullo said he believed Marte would be available Friday. Marte remains on track to start that contest, but a determination won't be made until he tests his foot injury before the game.

Bazzana was removed from Thursday's game at Triple-A Columbus due to left oblique soreness, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

It's not being called a strain at this juncture, but even if the injury is deemed minor, there's a good chance it will end the top prospect's season. Bazzana had been heating up lately with Columbus, posting a 1.163 OPS with four home runs over nine September contests. The 23-year-old missed a chunk of time earlier this season with a right oblique strain.

Lowe is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Cubs.

It's the first day off since Aug. 4 for Lowe, who went 1-for-12 with six strikeouts during this week's series versus the White Sox. Richie Palacios will play second base and bat seventh for the Rays.

Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a stolen base, a run scored and a two-run single during the Yankees' 9-3 win over the Tigers on Thursday.

Chisholm entered Thursday's game having gone 1-for-7 with four strikeouts over the first two games of the series but was far more productive in the finale. He collected his 28th steal of the season in the second inning and gave the Yankees a 9-3 lead in the fourth with a two-run single. In nine games since Sept. 2, Chisholm has gone 8-for-31 (.258) with three steals, two homers and five RBI.

Rengifo will start at second base and bat sixth against the Mariners on Thursday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Rengifo was originally slated to have a day off Thursday withChris Taylor manning the keystone. However, Taylor will now be sent to right field to cover for a scratched Jo Adell (illness), and Rengifo will start at second base. The 28-year-old owns a .577 OPS since the start of September and has logged just two hits in his last five games.
