Chourio is not in the lineup for the second game of Friday's doubleheader in Cincinnati after rolling his right ankle in the first game, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Chourio created quite a scare when he injured the ankle as he attempted to beat out an infield single in the fifth inning. He had to be helped off the field, but the rookie outfielder stayed in and finished the contest. Chourio will receive treatment and have some tests just to be safe, but it sounds like he should be fine. Sal Frelick, Blake Perkins and Garrett Mitchell will form the Brewers' outfield trio in the nightcap as they try to sweep the doubleheader.

Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays. After going 3-for-15 at the dish while starting in each of the Mariners' last four contests, Turner will head to the bench for the series finale. Three of Turner's previous four starts came against left-handed pitchers, and the Mariners are seemingly viewing him as more of a short-side platoon player at this stage of his career.
