Gelof went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 9-6 win over the Reds.

The 24-year-old had a tough start to the season, but he's found a groove in August. Over his last 20 games, Gelof is slashing .279/.346/.456 with three homers, six steals, seven RBI and 12 runs. That surge has boosted his OPS on the year to only .640 -- a major disappointment after he posted an .841 OPS as a rookie in 2023 -- but Gelof is closing in on a 20-20 campaign with 16 home runs and 19 stolen bases in 109 contests.

Altuve went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base Wednesday against the Phillies.

Altuve contributed to a 10-run offensive outburst by the Astros and continued a well-rounded run of production. He tallied a stolen base for the second straight game, bringing his total on the season to 20 -- his highest mark since 2018. Altuve has also picked up his power pace of late, recording three homers and two doubles across his last 12 starts.

Massey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-5 loss to the Guardians.

Massey gave the Royals a hot start, taking Tanner Bibee's fourth pitch of the game over the fence in right field. The long ball snapped a 14-game homerless drought for Massey, who still hit a strong .327 (16-for-49) with three doubles and five RBI in that span. He hasn't been an everyday player lately, but his playing time has ticked up with Adam Frazier shifting to right field to cover for the injured Hunter Renfroe (hamstring). Massey still has to contend with Maikel Garcia at second base, though Garcia can also play third and Massey occasionally serves as the designated hitter. For the season, Massey is slashing .270/.297/.472 with 11 homers, 37 RBI, 38 runs scored and no stolen bases over 72 games.

Baldwin isn't in the White Sox's lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against Texas.

Baldwin will take a seat to conclude Wednesday's activities after going 1-for-3 during a loss in Game 1. Lenyn Sosa will shift to second base while Baldwin sits, allowing Miguel Vargas to start at the hot corner and bat eighth.

The Orioles announced that Mateo underwent season-ending UCL reconstruction surgery on his left elbow Wednesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Mateo hadn't played since July 23 with a left elbow subluxation before eventually requiring the procedure. He'll finish the 2024 campaign with a .229/.267/.401 slash line to go with five home runs and 13 stolen bases across 68 games. The 29-year-old will enter his final year of arbitration eligibility this offseason and will likely fill a utility role if the Orioles opt to keep him on the roster in 2025.

Julien is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

The lefty-hitting Julien will bow out of the starting nine while Atlanta sends a tough southpaw (Chris Sale) to the hill. Platoon mate Kyle Farmer will fill in for Julien at the keystone.

Gelof went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.

Gelof left the yard in the eighth inning via a 424-foot shot to left center that extended the Athletics' lead to 5-1, a run that turned out to be critical after the Reds rallied for three runs over the final two frames. Gelof's round tripper snapped a 12-game power drought for the infielder, whose average (.199) has dipped back under the Mendoza Line despite Tuesday's success. The lack of consistent contact continues to be a major drag on Gelof's overall numbers in his first full major-league season, as he's striking out at a 34.7 percent clip.

Wagner went 3-for-4 with two doubles and a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Red Sox.

The 26-year-old rookie banged out doubles in the second and fourth innings, one off the Green Monster and one into the left-field corner, before smashing his first career homer in the majors into the right-field bullpen off Brennan Bernardino in the sixth. Per Craig Forde of MLB.com, Wagner is the first player in Blue Jays history to collect two doubles and a home run in the same game within his first 13 big-league contests. He's had an impressive start to his Toronto tenure since being acquired from Houston in the Yusei Kikuchi deal, slashing .326/.356/.512 over 45 plate appearances with six extra-base hits, five runs and six RBI.

Lowe isn't in the Rays' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Lowe will give way to Jose Caballero at second base Tuesday after going 4-for-21 with nine strikeouts over his last five contests.

Amaya was added to the 26-man roster by the White Sox ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Rangers, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

Amaya was just claimed off waivers from the Astros on Monday and will report directly to the major-league club. The 25-year-old has hit just .223/.313/.336 across 291 plate appearances at the Triple-A level this season. Amaya is capable of handling shortstop, second base and third base and should see a decent amount of playing time down the stretch for the rebuilding White Sox.
