  • Brandon Lowe 2B | TB

    Rays' Brandon Lowe: Reaches 30-homer mark

    Lowe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Red Sox.

    Lowe achieved his second 30-homer season when he went deep in the sixth inning. Just two of those long balls have come in September, as his power has declined following a nine-homer performance over 25 games in August. The infielder is now at a .258/.309/.478 slash line with 81 RBI, 78 runs scored, 18 doubles and three stolen bases across 130 contests this season.

  • Jose Altuve 2B | HOU

    Astros' Jose Altuve: Records 10th steal

    Altuve went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, one RBI and one stolen base in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners.

    This was Altuve's second multi-hit effort in a row but just his fourth such game in all of September. The 35-year-old is batting just .203 (13-for-64) over 18 games this month, adding three home runs and 10 RBI in that span. For the season, he's posted a .265/.327/.444 slash line with 26 homers, 75 RBI, 78 runs scored and 10 steals across 150 contests.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Reaches three times in loss

    Torres went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 6-2 loss to Atlanta.

    Torres extended his hitting streak to four games, with the last three contests being multi-hit efforts. The Detroit infielder is now slashing .261/.366/.398 across 140 games this year, and he's been a key offensive performer in his first season with his new team. Torres should continue to slot in as the No. 2 hitter for the Tigers as they look to wrap up a playoff spot.

  • Leonardo Rivas SS | SEA

    Mariners' Leo Rivas: Fading into reserve role

    Rivas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

    Rivas will be left out of the lineup for the third game in a row while the Mariners make an effort to get their best bats in the lineup. To that end, Jorge Polanco will once again cover second base, allowing Dominic Canzone to serve as the Mariners' designated hitter while Victor Robles occupies right field.

  • Guardians' Daniel Schneemann: Taking seat Sunday

    Schneemann is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Schneemann started both ends of Saturday's doubleheader when the Guardians went up against right-handed pitchers, going 1-for-9 with a solo home run and an additional run between the two contests. He'll sit against righty Simeon Woods Richardson on Sunday, opening up room in the lineup for George Valera.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Taking seat Sunday

    Massey isn't in the Royals' starting lineup Sunday versus the Blue Jays.

    Massey will begin the series finale on the bench after starting each of Kansas City's past three contests at second base. Adam Frazier will cover the keystone Sunday.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Collects three hits Saturday

    Torres went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Saturday's 6-5 loss to Atlanta.

    All three hits were singles for Torres, who continues to do a good job of getting on base for Detroit. The infielder has six hits over his last three games, and he's slashing .259/.364/.395 for the season. The .364 on-base percentage would be a new career high for Torres after he recorded a .330 figure last year with the Yankees.

  • Guardians' Daniel Schneemann: Pops homer Saturday

    Schneemann went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader sweep of Minnesota. He went 0-for-5 with a run scored in the nightcap.

    Schneemann clubbed his 12th home run of the season in the fifth inning of the matinee, his first since Aug. 31. He continues to slot in wherever the Guardians need him and has appeared in 16 of Cleveland's 20 games in September, but he hasn't done much at the plate. Schneemann is slashing .149/.200/.255 with one homer, five RBI and six runs scored this month.

  • Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Pops 21st homer

    Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Padres.

    Sosa waited until the ninth inning to pop his 21st home run of the season. He's had a mixed performance across the final month of the campaign, as he's collected 10 RBI and nine runs scored across 15 games. However, he's also hit only .200 while striking out at a 34.9 percent clip.

  • Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Ruled out for season

    Manager Joe Espada said Saturday that Rodgers (back/concussion) won't play again this season, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Rodgers initially landed on the injured list in June due to an oblique strain, but his time on the shelf has since been extended by a concussion, a nasal fracture and, most recently, back inflammation. With slightly more than a week left in the regular season, the 29-year-old will now shift his focus to getting ready for the start of the 2026 campaign. He's also due to become a free agent this winter.
