Peters is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.

Peters will sit for a second straight game, with the White Sox starting Sam Antonacci, Luisangel Acuna and Everson Pereira in the outfield from left to right. Over his last 10 games since April 4, Peters has gone 2-for-22 (.091 average) with one walk and six strikeouts.

Oliva underwent left hamate bone surgery Thursday in Los Angeles, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

The common recovery timeline for this type of procedure is 4-to-6 weeks, so Oliva will be out until mid-May even in a best-case scenario. He is 1-for-7 at the plate this season in his limited opportunities for the Giants.

Chourio (hand) took some swings Friday for the first time since undergoing left hamate bone surgery, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Chourio's recovery from the operation has come along more slowly than anticipated, but he took a big step Friday. The talented young outfielder will continue to ramp up his rehab, with the goal of being ready for his season debut sometime in early May.

Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said that Stowers (hamstring) will play another rehab game with Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday before being evaluated for a potential return, Craig Mish of FanDuel Sports Network Florida reports.

Stowers has gone just 2-for-15 with a 0:6 BB:K in his first four rehab contests, but it sounds like his season debut is imminent as long as he checks out physically. The 2025 All-Star has been out all season with a right hamstring strain. All three of Stowers' starts in the field on his rehab assignment have been in left field, and that will be his primary position once he's activated. However, the plan is to get him some occasional reps at first base, as well.

Manager Craig Albernaz said Friday that O'Neill (concussion) needs more time to recover and still has yet to clear protocol, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

O'Neill is eligible to come off the 7-day concussion injured list Saturday, but that's not going to happen. With O'Neill sidelined, Dylan Beavers and Leody Taveras will continue to see regular at-bats in the Baltimore outfield mix.

Hinds is out of the lineup for Friday's contest in Minnesota.

Hinds started each of the last three games after he was promoted from Triple-A Louisville, but he'll grab a seat in this one. Will Benson will patrol right field and bat eighth for the Reds.

Collins (knee) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.

Collins will miss his third straight start after he was injured Tuesday against the Tigers. With Collins sitting Friday, Lane Thomas is manning left field and batting sixth against right-hander Cam Schlittler.

Young is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Giants.

Young was hit on the right hand by a pitch in Thursday's win over the Pirates, but he remained in that contest and it's not the reason he's out of Friday's lineup, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports. Joey Wiemer is starting in center field Friday, but Young should be available off the bench.

Goodman is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest against the Dodgers.

Goodman started each of the final five games during the Rockies' road trip, so he will receive some well-earned rest as the team returns to Coors Field to begin a homestand. Brett Sullivan will do the catching and bat sixth for Colorado.

Castro (hand) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game versus the Dodgers.

Castro had to be pulled from Wednesday's game in Houston after being hit on the right hand by a pitch and did not play in Thursday's contest. X-rays came back clean and he's day-to-day, though it's unclear whether Castro will be available off the bench Friday. Edouard Julien will handle second base again for the Rockies.
