Casas went 3-for-4 with three home runs and seven RBI in a win over Minnesota in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader.

Entering Sunday's contest with just one home run in September, Casas exploded for his first multi-home run game of the season and the second of his career. Casas opened the barrage with a pair of three-run home runs off Pablo Lopez in the first and third innings before belting a 423-foot solo shot off Brent Headrick in the fifth, giving him a career-best seven RBI. With Sunday's explosive performance, the 24-year-old Casas is now up to 12 home runs, 29 RBI and 26 runs scored with a .241/.332/.466 slash line in 57 games.

The Athletics optioned Noda to Double-A Midland on Sunday.

With the Triple-A season ending Sunday, Noda will go to the Athletics' affiliate in Midland, which is in the Double-A playoffs. Noda appeared in five games for the Athletics since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Sept. 10, going 1-for-8 with one run scored and two walks over that span.

Soderstrom went 2-for-2 with a double, two RBI, two walks and one run scored in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Yankees.

Soderstrom logged multiple hits for the third time in his last four games, and he also drew a walk for the first time since he returned from a wrist injury. He's held down more than a strong-side platoon at first base since his return, though he's not in the lineup versus every southpaw. Soderstrom is slashing .229/.314/.416 with eight home runs, 24 RBI, 16 runs scored and two doubles over 142 plate appearances as a rookie this season.

Turner (knee) will start at first base and bat fifth Sunday against the Rangers.

Turner fouled a ball off his knee Saturday and was forced to leave the game, but apparently it's not bad enough to cost him a start. As he approaches his 40th birthday in November, Turner's MLB future is uncertain, but he's shown signs of life with a .303/.398/.494 batting line and four homers in his last 26 games for Seattle.

Kavadas is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Astros, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

The Astros are sending righty Spencer Arrighetti to the bump, but the left-handed-hitting Kavadas will nonetheless begin the contest on the bench. It's the first time since Sept. 1 that Kavadas will be absent from the lineup against a right-hander. Logan O'Hoppe is getting a start at designated hitter for the Angels while Matt Thaiss does the catching.

Schanuel is not in the lineup for Sunday's contest in Houston, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

It looks to be a routine day of rest for Schanuel, who had started each of the previous 12 games. Brandon Drury will occupy first base for the Angels in the series finale.

Singleton is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

The Astros will go with Yainer Diaz at first base and Victor Caratini at catcher as they try to close out a four-game sweep of the Angels. Singleton has been out of the lineup for three straight contests, although Sunday marks the first of those three games in which Houston has faced a right-handed starting pitcher.

Diaz is absent from the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Blue Jays.

Brandon Lowe is getting a start in the designated-hitter spot in this one, while Jonathan Aranda will cover first base. Diaz's playing time has slipped a bit this month, as this is the sixth time he's been out of the Rays' lineup.

Turner left Saturday's game against the Rangers in the sixth inning due to a knee injury, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.

Turner fouled a ball off his knee during his at-bat in the top of the sixth inning, and he'll finish the game having gone 2-for-4. Dylan Moore has shifted over to first base while Leo Rivas comes in at second.

Aranda went 2-for-3 with two-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Aranda homered for the second straight contest, crushing a 414-foot blast off Yariel Rodriguez in the third inning. The 26-year-old has hit safely in eight of his past 10 games while going deep four times. On the season, he is hitting .248 with five long balls, 11 RBI and 19 runs scored across 117 plate appearances.
