Abreu isn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.

Abreu went 6-for-19 with two doubles, six RBI and three runs across the last five games, and he'll get a rare day off Monday. Gavin Sheets will shift to first base while Leury Garcia starts in right field.

France went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Royals.

France was struggling a bit to begin the month after hitting just .220 over his first 13 games but has picked up seven hits over his last three games. The 26-year-old continues to be a bargain for the Mariners after they acquired him at last year's trade deadline. He's now slashing .294/.368/.446 with 46 extra-base hits, 63 RBI, 74 runs scored and 40:101 BB:K over 592 plate appearances.

Abreu went 2-for-4 with two RBI and one run scored in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Rangers.

Abreu singled in the fourth inning, driving in Cesar Hernandez and Tim Anderson. In addition, he singled and scored in the seventh inning. He has a pair of RBI in three of his last four games. The 34-year-old is slashing .261/.346/.488 with 29 homers, 113 RBI and 83 runs scored in 614 plate appearances.

Mountcastle went 2-for-3 with a pair of walks and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-6 loss to Boston.

The 24-year-old has produced four multi-hit efforts in 16 games in September, including twice in his last two contests. Mountcastle has enjoyed a solid rookie year, slashing .263/.316/.499 with 30 home runs, four stolen bases, 83 RBI and 72 runs scored through 535 plate appearances.

Guerrero went 3-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 5-3 win over Minnesota.

The first baseman knocked in Marcus Semien with an RBI single before scoring on Bo Bichette's home run in the first inning. Guerrero has hit safely in 16 of 18 games in September, going 27-for-71 (.380) with seven homers, nine RBI and 21 runs scored this month. He's lifted his impressive slash line to .321/.411/.617 with a major-league-leading 46 homers, 105 RBI and 119 runs scored across 642 plate appearances overall.

Gurriel is not in the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Gurriel will take a day off after starting the past eight games and delivering a .722 OPS during that span. Aledmys Diaz will start at first base Sunday for Houston.

O'Hearn is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mariners, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.

O'Hearn is on the bench for the third consecutive game as Salvador Perez receives a day off from behind the plate to serve as the designated hitter. O'Hearn is 3-for-23 through 12 games in September and may receive inconsistent opportunities down the stretch.

Olson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a strikeout in Saturday's 3-1 triumph over the Angels.

Olson took Los Angeles starter Jose Suarez deep as part of a three-run first during which Oakland scored all of its runs. The blast gives the first baseman 36 on the year, which ties his career high for homers set in 2019. Olson has now compiled a modest five-game hitting streak during which he's gone 7-for-18 with a double and three long balls.

Mountcastle went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a walk Saturday against the Red Sox.

Mountcastle reached the 30-home run mark when he took Nick Pivetta deep in the first inning. He also singled later in the game. The 24-year-old is hitting .260/.311/.498 with 83 RBI in 530 plate appearances this season.

Voit went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer and a walk in Saturday's 11-3 loss to Cleveland.

Voit swatted his 11th homer of the season in the eighth inning, connecting off Justin Garza to round out the scoring. Playing time has been sporadic for Voit since the Yankees acquired veteran first baseman Anthony Rizzo from the Cubs, but Voit has shown some signs of life at the plate over his last three games, reaching base five times with a pair of homers and three walks.
