Keith went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Giants.

Keith has gone 7-for-33 (.212) over his first eight games in August. His steal Friday was his sixth of the campaign and his first since July 7. The infielder has added a decent .251/.307/.388 slash line with 11 home runs, 42 RBI, 41 runs scored, 11 doubles and three triples across 397 plate appearances. Keith continues to see a majority of the playing time at second base despite his fairly average performance, and he also regularly bats in the top third of the order.

Sogard went 2-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 8-4 loss to the Astros.

Sogard was active on the basepaths all night and was especially a pest in the fourth inning, as he stole his first career base and then scored on an errant pickoff attempt. The 26-year-old has reached base in each of his first seven major-league games with two multi-hit efforts and seven runs scored.

Altuve went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 8-4 win over the Red Sox.

Altuve walked and scored a run in the first inning and then tied the game with a two-run homer in the seventh. The long ball was his first extra-base hit in 10 games, but he has hit safely in seven of those contests with four RBI and four runs scored. On the season, the second baseman is hitting .302 with 15 home runs, 50 RBI, 64 runs scored and 15 steals across 498 plate appearances.

Horwitz went 3-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 3-1 win over the Athletics.

Horwitz doubled in the fourth inning, singled in the sixth and went yard in the eighth. While the long ball was his first since July 11, the 26-year-old has three multi-hit efforts in seven August contests. On the year, he is hitting .282 with five homers, 20 RBI and 24 runs scored across 206 plate appearances.

Holliday will start at second base and bat sixth in Friday's game at Tampa Bay, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

It's the highest he's batted in his brief major-league career. Holliday has earned a move up in the Orioles' batting order by going 9-for-28 with one double, four home runs and 11 RBI in eight games since being recalled in late July.

Keaschall will undergo Tommy John surgery on his right elbow, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Keaschall has battled elbow problems for much of the season, although it hasn't affected his production as the 21-year-old is slashing .303/.420/.483 with 15 homers and 23 stolen bases between High-A Cedar Rapids and Double-A Wichita. Because he's a position player, having the surgery now will give Keaschall a shot to be recovered in time for spring training. Assuming he's healthy, Keaschall could debut for the Twins in 2025.

The Twins activated Farmer (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Friday, Declan Goff of SKOR North reports.

He's been sidelined for nearly a month with a right shoulder strain but is ready to go after playing three rehab games with Triple-A St. Paul. Farmer is starting at second base and batting ninth in the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

The Red Sox reinstated Grissom (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Thursday and optioned him to Triple-A Worcester, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

Grissom has taken a massive step back at the plate in the big leagues this year, slashing just .148/.207/.160 with three RBI in 87 plate appearances. He's begun to rediscover his swing while on a rehab assignment with Worcester, tallying a hit in nine of his last 10 games, but the Red Sox will keep him stashed away in the minors now that he's fully recovered from his right hamstring strain.

Holliday went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Blue Jays.

The precocious 20-year-old took Ryan Burr deep in the seventh inning, making Holliday the youngest player in American League history to go yard in three straight games. He's also the 12th player in big-league history to accomplish that feat before his 21st birthday, a list that includes the likes of Fernando Tatis and Juan Soto as well as Hall of Famers Willie Mays and Mel Ott. Per Jake Rill of MLB.com, only two players have had longer streaks before they turned 21 -- Miguel Cabrera had homers in four straight games in 2004, and Ronald Acuna went yard in five straight in 2018. Holliday is making it clear he has no intention of going back to the minors, and in seven games since his promotion he's batting .375 (9-for-24) with a double, four homers, seven runs and 10 RBI.

Stefanic went 3-for-4 with a double and a run Wednesday in Game 2 of a doubleheader split with the Yankees.

Stefanic didn't get into Game 1, but he started the second contest at second base and logged his first three-hit game of the campaign. The infielder has three multi-hit performances over his past four games and has gone 7-for-13 (.538 average) during that span, though only one of those seven knocks went for extra bases. Despite his recent solid hitting and .304 average on the season, Stefanic may see less playing time with Anthony Rendon getting activated from the injured list Tuesday.
