Tristan Gray SS | BOS
Rays' Tristan Gray: Tallies three hits
Gray went 3-for-4 with an RBI on Tuesday against the Blue Jays.
Gray has gotten sporadic playing time around the infield, with Tuesday marking his second straight start -- one at shortstop and one at third base. He delivered an RBI single in the eighth inning, and he's now gone 8-for-25 with five RBI and five runs scored across his last 10 games.

Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT
Rays' Brandon Lowe: Homers, drives in four
Lowe went 2-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Tuesday's loss to Toronto.
Lowe put the Rays on the board with a somewhat controversial three-run shot in the third inning -- it held up on replay even though a fan was ruled to have reached over the outfield wall and interfered with the play -- and later added an RBI single in the ninth. He snapped a 13-game homerless drought, during which he posted a .503 OPS with 23 punchouts. Lowe now owns a .258/.309/.476 slash line with 29 home runs and 79 RBI through 127 games.

Twins' Luke Keaschall: Stepping out of lineup
Keaschall is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees.
Keaschall will hit the bench after a run of 12 straight starts, during which he batted .320 (16-for-50) with three walks, two doubles, five steals, eight RBI and seven runs. Austin Martin will shift to second base while James Outman receives a start in left field.

Leonardo Rivas SS | SEA
Mariners' Leo Rivas: Not in Seattle lineup
Rivas is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Kansas City.

Max Anderson 2B | DET
Tigers' Max Anderson: Putting together impressive season
Anderson is performing well in the minors this season and will play in the Arizona Fall League, where he'll focus on defense and finding a good positional fit, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Anderson has a .296 batting average, 29 doubles, 18 home runs, 82 RBI and an .830 OPS in 115 games between Double-A Erie and Triple-A Toledo this season. The 23-year-old, who primarily plays second and third base, has put himself into a position to potentially make his MLB debut at some point in 2026. Anderson will use the AFL assignment to focus on further developing his defensive versatility and finding the right fit, and if he continues to rake as well, his prospect stock should rise heading into next season.

Dylan Moore 2B | TEX
Rangers' Dylan Moore: Nabs steal in loss
Moore went 1-for-2 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Astros.
Moore is now 6-for-19 with two home runs and two steals over 12 games with the Rangers. He continues to occupy a part-time role as a utility player in a reserve role. For the season, he's logged 14 steals, 11 homers, 25 RBI, 34 runs scored and a .204/.266/.384 slash line across 100 games between Texas and Seattle.

Marcus Semien 2B | NYM
Rangers' Marcus Semien: Takes batting practice Monday
Semien (foot) was spotted taking batting practice on the field Monday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
The team has yet to offer up a timeline for Semien's return after he went down with a broken left foot in late August, but it's a positive sign that he's progressed to taking on-field BP. Texas is a few games back from a wild-card spot, so the club would certainly welcome Semien back into the fold down the stretch if he's cleared for game action.

Mauricio Dubon 2B | ATL
Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Back on bench Monday
Dubon is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.
Dubon had started in three of the last four games and five of the past seven contests, but he'll likely be in line for a reduction in playing time over the final two weeks of the regular season now that Houston has most of its key position players available. He filled in for a banged-up Jose Altuve (foot) at the keystone in Sunday's 8-3 loss to Atlanta, but Altuve will be back in the lineup Monday.
