Siri went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-0 win over the Rays.

Siri didn't get the start Saturday, but he made an impact off the bench. The outfielder has gone 9-for-27 (.333) with two homers and 10 RBI over nine contests in June, though he has been limited to a part-time role. For the season, he's batting .333 with a .988 OPS, three homers, 12 RBI, 12 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 51 plate appearances. Siri should be in the lineup versus most left-handed pitchers, and he serves as a fourth outfielder versus right-handers, though he could carve out a larger role if he maintains the hot bat.

White went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles and two total RBI in a 3-1 win against the Mets on Saturday.

White produced all three of Atlanta's extra-base hits in the victory and was responsible for all but one of the team's runs. He began the scoring with an RBI double in the second inning and added a solo blast to left field in the fourth. Saturday marked White's second start in four games since Ronald Acuna (hamstring) landed on the IL. Both of those starts have come against left-handed hurlers, while Mike Yastrzemski has started the two games in which Atlanta has faced a righty.

Beavers (oblique) is expected to progress to live batting practice as early as Monday, MLB.com reports.

If all goes well against live pitching, Beavers could then start a minor-league rehab assignment shortly thereafter. The 24-year-old outfielder has been on the injured list since May 13 due to a right oblique strain, but he's tracking toward rejoining the Orioles perhaps in late June or early July.

Suzuki exited Saturday's game against the Giants due to right knee discomfort, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

Suzuki was removed from the game in the bottom of the fourth inning after he attempted to make a running catch in right field. The right knee is the same one he sustained a strained PCL during the World Baseball Classic, causing him to miss the first 12 games of the season. However, it's not clear if the current knee injury is related to the prior one. Matt Shaw replaced Suzuki in the outfield following his departure.

Suzuki was removed from Saturday's game against the Giants in the bottom of the fourth inning with an apparent injury, Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Suzuki tried to make a running grab on a Matt Chapman single and came off the field with the training staff. Prior to leaving, Suzuki went 1-for-2 with an RBI single and a walk. Matt Shaw has replaced Suzuki in right field.

Peters went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.

Los Angeles ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto entered the bottom of the ninth inning working on a no-hitter, but Peters ended the hurler's chance at history by clubbing a leadoff homer to right field. That was Peters' first long ball in 22 contests, though he's batting a robust .369 with 11 doubles during that span. The hot spell has brought Peters' season slash line up to a very strong .299/.358/.460 and has helped cement his role as Chicago's near-everyday center fielder.

Grisham (hamstring) participated in "light on-field agility exercises" Saturday and is expected to undergo imaging in New York on Monday, per MLB.com.

Grisham was placed on the 10-day IL on Saturday after straining his right hamstring while running the bases Friday. He felt better Saturday morning, but it's to be determined how much time he'll have to miss, per Greg Joyce of the New York Post. The results of Grisham's imaging Monday should provide a clearer picture of his return timeline.

The Rangers announced that Helman has multiple fractures in his right hand after leaving Saturday's game against the Red Sox, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Helman will miss some time for Texas after being hit by a pitch, which caused multiple fractures in his right hand. After being called up on May 18, the 30-year-old has only recorded 31 plate appearances, slashing .179/.233/.321, though he was likely ticketed for increased playing time after Evan Carter (oblique) landed on the IL earlier Saturday.

Soderstrom is not starting versus Colorado on Saturday.

The lefty-hitting Soderstrom is getting a breather with the Rockies sending southpaw Kyle Freeland to the mound. It's the fourth time in five games that the A's are going up against a lefty starter, but Soderstrom started each of those first three contests, so he's not in a platoon situation. However, Colby Thomas is spelling Soderstrom in left field Saturday.

McCarthy (illness) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

Saturday will mark the fourth consecutive game that McCarthy has missed while recovering from an illness. The Rockies haven't yet suggested that he will have to spend time on the injured list, though that could become an option if he isn't able to return soon. Sterlin Thompson, Cole Carrigg and Troy Johnston will form Colorado's outfield trio Saturday.
