Cuddyer out Tuesday due to sore hamstring

Michael Cuddyer is sitting out Tuesday night against the Royals because of hamstring soreness.

Drew Stubbs is starting in center field and Charlie Blackmon is starting in right field versus Kansas City. Cuddyer has been a highly-productive player for the Rockies when healthy, but the veteran outfielder has appeared in just 33 of the club's 124 games in 2014.

Tommy Pham (groin) back in lineup Friday

Tommy Pham (groin) is back in the Cardinals' lineup Friday.

Pham didn't start Thursday after suffering a minor right groin injury Tuesday, but he did appear as a pinch-hitter and is back in there Friday. He's in center field and batting leadoff against Brandon Finnegan and the Reds.

Jurickson Profar (concussion) back in lineup

Jurickson Profar (concussion) is back in the Rangers' lineup Friday.

Profar missed two games after suffering a concussion on a collision at second base Monday but has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is ready to go. He's at shortstop and batting second against Felix Hernandez and the Mariners.

Max Kepler (knee) in Twins' lineup Friday

Max Kepler (knee) is in the Twins' lineup Friday.

Kepler departed Wednesday's game against the Indians with a right knee injury, but he won't have to miss any starts. He's been playing center field lately with Byron Buxton (migraines) sidelined.

Drew Pomeranz (forearm) activated for debut

Red Sox activated LHP Drew Pomeranz from the 10-day disabled list.

Pomeranz will make his season debut Friday versus the A's after he suffered a flexor strain during spring training. The left-hander wasn't overly sharp during two rehab outings (5/9 K/BB ratio over 9 2/3 innings), so fantasy owners might be wise to give him a start to knock the rust off before activating him.

Blue Jays summon Lourdes Gurriel from AA

Blue Jays recalled INF Lourdes Gurriel from Double-A New Hampshire.

Gurriel really struggled in his first taste of pro ball last season but was off to a .347/.382/.510 start with one homer and one steal at New Hampshire. The 24-year-old gives the Jays another option at both second base and shortstop. How much he'll wind up playing remains to be seen, but he's worth a shot in AL-only leagues.

Kendrys Morales (hamstring) returns from DL

Blue Jays activated DH Kendrys Morales from the 10-day disabled list.

Morales missed the minimum amount of time with a Grade 1 right hamstring strain. With the Blue Jays deciding to keep Teoscar Hernandez on the roster for now, it's possible Morales could be benched a little more often moving forward.

Zunino (oblique) activated from disabled list

Mariners activated C Mike Zunino from the 10-day disabled list.

Zunino has been out all season with a strained right oblique but is ready to go now after getting through three rehab games with no issues. While he's a big batting average risk, Zunino is a fine fantasy catcher because of his power. Mike Marjama was optioned in a corresponding move.

Sal Perez (knee) on track to return next week

Royals manager Ned Yost said Friday that the hope is Salvador Perez (knee) will be activated sometime during next week's April 24-29 homestand.

Perez has already played four rehab games and Yost said the catcher feels "great." He's slated to serve as the designated hitter for Triple-A Omaha on Friday before catching back-to-back games Saturday and Sunday. That could be the last hurdle he needs to clear before being activated as soon as Tuesday. If he does return Tuesday, Perez will have made it back in four weeks after being given a 4-6 week timetable to recover from a torn MCL.

Mike Napoli suffers torn ACL at Triple-A

Mike Napoli suffered a torn right ACL and meniscus at Triple-A Columbus that will require season-ending surgery.

Napoli is expected to need 10-14 months of rehab. Given that he will turn 37 in October, the injury has the potential to be a career-ender. Napoli was off to a 1-for-24 start at Columbus after signing a minor league contract with the Indians this spring.

Shohei Ohtani strikes out three times vs. BOS

Shohei Ohtani went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Red Sox.

Ohtani has been the toast of baseball this year, but this series against the Red Sox is a solid reminder that he's probably a mortal man. He was knocked up for three runs in just two innings in his Tuesday start -- which he was forced to leave due to a blister on his right hand -- and fared no better with the bat on Thursday. That said, in 34 at-bats this season, Ohtani is still slashing .324/.378/.676 with three home runs (five total extra-base hits) and 11 RBI. He also owns a 3.60 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 19/4 K/BB ratio in three outings on the mound. He's expected to be able to make his next scheduled start despite the blister concern.

Cain homers, scores four runs in lopsided win

Lorenzo Cain went 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles, a homer, two RBI and four runs scored as the Brewers thumped the Marlins 12-3 on Thursday.

Cain ripped a Dillon Peters pitch over the left field wall in the fifth inning, his second homer of the year. He added an RBI double in the sixth, and also had another double and a walk in the game. The good performance raised his average back up to over .300, leaving his line at .303/.390/.485 through 18 games. He's also stolen four bases, ranking among the league leaders in the category. The reunion has gone well thus far.
