  • 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.

  • Royals' Jonathan India: Losing work to Massey

    India isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Saturday marks the fourth consecutive game that will begin with Michael Massey at the keystone and India on the bench. India has still appeared in two of the Royals' last three contests, though it seems his time as the regular second baseman in Kansas City has come to an end.

  • Zack Gelof 2B | ATH

    Athletics' Zack Gelof: Officially placed on IL

    Gelof was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a dislocated left shoulder.

    It was already reported that Gelof was done for the season after suffering the injury in Friday's game against the Pirates. Max Muncy (hand) was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move and should play regularly in place of Gelof down the stretch.

  • Angels' Christian Moore: Goes deep Friday

    Moore went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Colorado.

    Moore put the Angels on the board with a two-run homer that tied the score 2-2 in the second inning. The rookie second baseman has been flashing his power of late, belting three homers in six games since being called back up to the big leagues Sept. 13. His other two hits during that span have been doubles, though he's also struck out nine times in 20 plate appearances.

  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Reaches 30-30 mark

    Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Baltimore.

    Chisholm accounted for the Yankees' only runs in the game with his homer to right-center field in the seventh inning. The long ball was his 30th of the campaign (a career high) and, paired with his 30 thefts, put him in rarified air as just the third Yankees player with a 30-30 season (Bobby Bonds and Alfonso Soriano are the others). Juan Soto of the Mets is the only other MLB player to reach the 30-30 mark so far this season.

  • Marcus Semien 2B | NYM

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: More baseball activity

    Semien (foot) took live batting practice and did some running Friday, MLB.com reports.

    Semien ramped up his activity this week and is hoping to get on the field with the limited time left in the regular season. The Rangers have lost five consecutive games and sit five games back of the final wild-card spot with eight left to play. Ultimately, whether Semien returns to the active roster may depend on the team's slim playoff hopes.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Fuels offense in rout

    Massey went 4-for-5 with a homer, a double, a walk, three RBI and an additional run scored in Friday's 20-1 victory over the Blue Jays.

    Massey set a new career best by tallying four hits in this contest while driving home four for the fourth time. His performance was highlighted by a 393-foot, two-run blast off Toronto starter Max Scherzer in the opening frame. Massey, who is currently fills a bench role in Kansas City, is now slashing .231/.257/.300 with three homers, 19 RBI and 16 runs scored across 262 total plate appearances.

  • Zack Gelof 2B | ATH

    Athletics' Zack Gelof: Out for season

    Gelof dislocated his left shoulder during Friday's game against Pittsburgh, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Gelof suffered the injury while diving for a grounder in the fifth inning of Friday's contest, and he will ultimately have to miss the rest of the season. He'll close the book on 2025 with a forgettable .174/.230/.272 slash line to go with two homers, seven RBI, 12 runs scored and a steal through 101 plate appearances in the majors.
