Updating a previous report, Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez (ankle) was forced to exit early during Friday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Patrick Bailey Resting On Friday

San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Colorado Rockies.
