    Robles (undisclosed) was scratched from the Mariners' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.

    The reason for Robles' removal from the lineup has yet to be announced, but Dominic Canzone will start in right field and bat seventh.

  • Jesus Sanchez DH | ARI

    Astros' Jesus Sanchez: Idle Friday

    Sanchez isn't in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Angels, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Sanchez will take a day to reset Friday after going just 1-for-18 across his last seven contests. Mauricio Dubon will fill in as the Astros' left fielder and bat ninth.

  • Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Idle Friday

    Canzone is not in the Mariners' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.

    Even with right-hander Emmet Sheehan on the mound for the Dodgers in Friday's series opener, Canzone will be on the bench for the start of the game while Josh Naylor serves as the designated hitter and Luke Raley gets the nod at first base. Canzone has logged at least one hit in five of his last six games and has a 1.151 OPS with four home runs, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored in 51 plate appearances since Sept. 1.

  • Orioles' Jeremiah Jackson: On bench Friday

    Jackson is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Jackson will take a seat for Friday's series opener. Tyler O'Neill will patrol right field while Jordan Westburg slots in at third base. Jackson is 8-for-29 (.276) in his last nine games.

  • Roman Anthony LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Power walking on treadmill

    Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Friday that Anthony (oblique) has progressed to power walking on the treadmill, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    While it's a modest step forward from his normal walking on a treadmill, it's unclear when Anthony might be ready for baseball activities. A return in time for the American League Wild Card Series -- should the Red Sox qualify -- seems unlikely for Anthony. The rookie outfielder has been shelved for three-plus weeks with a left oblique strain.

    Guardians' Angel Martinez: Exiting starting nine

    Martinez is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Rangers.

  • Trent Grisham CF | NYY

    Yankees' Trent Grisham: Out of Friday's lineup

    Grisham is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest against the Orioles.

  • Michael Taylor CF | CHW

    White Sox's Michael Taylor: Sitting Friday

    Taylor is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Washington.

    Taylor will take a seat for Friday's series opener, giving way to Brooks Baldwin in center field. Taylor has one hit in his last 14 at-bats, with the lone hit being a two-run home run.
