Steer is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Red Sox.

Steer is hitting .218/.317/.327 with one home run, 14 strikeouts and eight walks in 16 games since making his MLB debut earlier this month. Donovan Solano will start at first base while batting fifth.

Flores went 3-for-5 with two RBI in Monday's 10-7 extra-inning win over the Rockies.

Flores is starting to find some traction at the plate again, going 6-for-14 with four RBI over his last three games after slumping for much of the first half of September. The infielder is back up to a .235/.316/.412 slash line with 19 home runs, 69 RBI, 67 runs scored and 27 doubles through 139 games in what's been a career year for him in terms of counting stats.

Tellez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 7-2 loss to the Mets.

His seventh-inning blast off Tylor Megill provided Milwaukee with all its offense on a night in which the team managed only four hits. Tellez has homered in back-to-back games and gone yard four times in the last seven, and while his .225/.310/.470 slash line on the season remains less than stellar, it comes with a career-high 32 home runs and 85 RBI through 139 contests.

Alonso went 1-for-4 with a walk, a three-run home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Monday's 7-2 win over the Brewers.

His fourth-inning blast off Corbin Burnes opened the scoring on the night and proved to be the game-winning hit -- one that clinched the Mets' first playoff berth since 2016. Alonso extended his RBI streak to seven games with the performance, and over his last 13 contests he's slashing .300/.390/.580 with four of his 36 homers and 12 of his 118 RBI on the season, leaving him only two RBI shy of tying the career high he established as a rookie in 2019.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Nationals.

Olson's stat line wasn't eye-popping from a fantasy standpoint by any means, but it was likely a welcome sight for his managers nonetheless amid a prolonged skid at the plate. Since mashing a three-run home run in a win over the Athletics on Sept. 6, Olson slashed .053/.122/.053 with a 34.1 percent strikeout rate over his subsequent 10 games. Even after the two-hit game, Olson is batting just .235, the lowest average of his career aside from the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign.

Toglia went 3-for-4 with two triples, a run, two RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the Giants on Monday.

Toglia isn't known for his speed, but he showed that he can get around the bases Monday. The rookie picked up his first two triples as well as his first stolen base as a big-leaguer in the loss. This was the first three-hit game of Toglia's major-league career and put an end to a cold snap during which he went 0-for-18 with 10 strikeouts over his previous five contests.

Naylor went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run, a double and a walk in Monday's 11-4 win over the Twins.

Naylor led off the scoring in the first inning with his 18th homer of the season. This was his first multi-hit effort in 10 games -- he went 4-for-34 over the previous nine, though three of those hits were doubles. The 25-year-old improved his slash line to .256/.316/.447 with 69 RBI, 40 runs scored and five stolen bases through 111 contests. He's likely to remain on the strong side of a platoon at first base, though he also plays against some lefties.

Torkelson went 3-for-4 with a walk, two doubles and three runs scored in Monday's 11-0 win over the Orioles.

Torkelson played a big role in an easy Detroit win, and it was the rookie's second three-hit effort this month. It's been a tough debut season overall, though the 23-year-old is batting a solid .280 in September. Torkelson certainly has the pedigree, and he could be in line for a nice 2023 campaign if he carries over any momentum into the offseason.

France went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 9-1 win over the Angels.

France ripped an RBI double in the first inning and capped off his day with a three-run blast in the seventh. With that, the 28-year-old infielder has reached the 20-homer mark for the first time in his MLB career. He improved his slash line to .272/.336/.442 with 44 extra-base hits and 77 RBI through 126 games. However, France is hitting just .203 (13-for-64) since the start of September.

Santana went 2-for-5 with two home runs and five RBI in Monday's 9-1 win over the Angels.

Santana hammered a grand slam in the fifth inning before tacking on a solo shot in the ninth. It's the second time he's hit a pair of homers in his last four games and he's gone deep seven times over the last nine games. He's now slashing .200/.317/.392 with 35 extra-base hits and 57 RBI through 116 games with the Mariners and Royals this season.
