The Twins recalled Roden from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

With Trevor Larnach (wrist) placed on the injured list, Roden figures to close out the 2026 season with the big club. He's appeared in 28 games with the Twins this season and has slashed .254/.333/.313 with four doubles, 10 RBI, six runs scored and a 9:11 BB:K across 79 plate appearances. Roden has posted an .853 OPS with St. Paul.

The Twins placed Larnach on the 10-day injured list Friday with left wrist soreness, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

Larnach's season is expected to be over, and Alan Roden has been recalled from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding move. Larnach hasn't played since last Sunday, and he'll likely close the book on his 2026 season with a .269/.352/.436 slash line with 13 home runs, 48 RBI, 57 runs scored, two stolen bases and a 45:79 BB:K across 433 trips to the plate.

Mitchell (neck) will start in center field and bat seventh in Friday's game against the Orioles.

Mitchell didn't start the last two days due to a neck issue. However, he appeared in Thursday's game versus the Pirates off the bench and is back in the lineup for Friday's series opener in Baltimore.

The Cardinals placed Baez on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left oblique strain.

Baez was injured during Wednesday's game against the Giants, and subsequent testing revealed the strain. He will be eligible to return for the final game of the regular season, but the injury will almost surely end his campaign. It's an unfortunate conclusion to Baez's rookie season after he flashed both the good (seven home runs, .510 slugging percentage) and bad (30.6 percent strikeout rate) of his profile during his time in the majors.

Caglianone is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

Since returning to the lineup last weekend after missing six games with a left elbow flexor strain, Caglianone is 0-for-10 at the plate. It's possible he's not 100 percent. Nick Loftin is making a rare start in right field for Kansas City.

Duran is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rays.

Sitting against left-handed starters has become Duran's new normal, and with lefty Ian Seymour on the mound for Tampa Bay on Friday, Boston will go with Roman Anthony, Nate Eaton and Wilyer Abreu from left to right in the outfield. Duran is batting just .159 with a .463 OPS across 47 trips to the plate this month.

Mangum is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals.

He's now been out of the lineup for two straight contests after starting each of the six games prior to that. Ronny Simon will play right field for the Pirates in the series opener.

Martinez (side) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Martinez was injured in Tuesday's game against the White Sox and missed Wednesday's series finale. He'll sit out at least another contest despite Thursday's off day. Steven Kwan is in left field, with Petey Halpin patrolling center.

DeLauter (wrist) is starting in right field and batting third Friday against the Athletics, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

DeLauter's sprained right wrist flared back up this week, and he was held out of action Tuesday and Wednesday against the White Sox ahead of Thursday's off day. The 24-year-old is back in action against lefty Mason Barnett for Friday's series opener. DeLauter has just three home runs since the All-Star break but does have 12 doubles, two triples and 23 walks in that span, boosting his OPS to .815 for the season.

Pereira (hand) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Thursday, going 1-for-3 with an RBI single along with two walks.

It was the first game action in nearly a month for Pereira, who is working his way back from a left hand contusion. It's unclear whether the 25-year-old outfielder will need any more rehab contests, but he's poised to rejoin the Cardinals' active roster before the regular season concludes. Once he does return, Pereira could see playing time versus lefties.
