  • Luis Guillorme 3B | HOU

    Mets' Luis Guillorme: Makes return from IL

    Guillorme (calf) was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Guillorme has been on the shelf since late July because of a right calf strain, but he's been cleared to return to action following a six-game rehab assignment. Infielder Jonathan Arauz was sent down to Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Idle again Monday

    Edwards is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Edwards went 4-for-16 with a walk, an RBI and two runs while making five consecutive starts at second base last week, but he appears to have since settled back into a utility role in the wake of Jorge Soler's recent return from the IL. With Soler having been reinstalled as the Marlins' designated hitter, Luis Arraez is expected to see most of his starts at the keystone moving forward rather than at first base. Edwards will hit the bench for a third straight contest as a result.

  • Thairo Estrada 2B | BAL

    Giants' Thairo Estrada: Stays warm Sunday

    Estrada went 2-for-5 with one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Sunday's 11-10 win over the Rockies.

    Estrada has five multi-hit efforts over his last 11 games, going 15-for-46 (.326) in that span. He's also logged three steals, two home runs and six RBI over those games. The second baseman continues to be one of the Giants' best hitters with a .277/.319/.423 slash line, 12 homers, 47 RBI, 61 runs scored and a career-high 22 steals over 108 contests.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Homers again Sunday

    Garcia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Sunday's extra-innings win over the Brewers.

    He drove a Brandon Woodruff fastball out of the park to center field in the second inning, the only run the Nationals managed until they scored the game-winner in the top of the 11th. Garcia has gone yard in back-to-back games, but since rejoining the big-league roster Sept. 8 he's batting just .207 (6-for-29), and the 23-year-old's future as a starting-caliber player in the majors remains in doubt.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Clubs 23rd homer

    Marte went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double, a walk and an additional run scored in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Cubs.

    Marte has had a strong September, hitting safely in 12 of his 15 games. He's gone 17-for-58 (.293) this month while producing nine RBI and nine extra-base hits. The second baseman is up to a .274/.355/.483 slash line with 23 homers, 77 RBI, 89 runs scored and six stolen bases over 141 contests overall. He continues to regularly hit leadoff versus southpaws and second versus right-handed pitchers.

  • Amed Rosario SS | NYY

    Dodgers' Amed Rosario: Racks up three hits, steal

    Rosario went 3-for-4 with a triple, a double, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Mariners.

    The light-hitting Rosario had a chance at a cycle but grounded out in the eighth inning. Prior to Sunday, he'd gone 7-for-26 (.269) over 12 games in September, playing in a part-time role. He's hit .255 with the Dodgers, and he's at a .263/.305/.383 slash line with six home runs, 56 RBI, 67 runs scored, 14 steals, 25 doubles and eight triples over 134 contests this season when accounting for his time with the Guardians. If the Dodgers opt to rest Mookie Betts or Miguel Rojas more often down the stretch, Rosario could see an uptick in playing time.

  • Ha-seong Kim 2B | ATL

    Padres' Ha-Seong Kim: Battling abdominal issue

    Kim was scratched from Sunday's lineup versus Oakland due to abdominal discomfort, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    The specifics of the injury remain unclear, and Kim is undergoing testing to determine whether the issue is internal or muscular. The second baseman should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

  • Ha-seong Kim 2B | ATL

    Padres' Ha-Seong Kim: Scratched Sunday

    Kim was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Athletics for unspecified reasons.

    Kim was penciled in to start at second base and bat leadoff Sunday, per usual, but the Padres released an updated lineup that excludes him. Assuming the 27-year-old is dealing with an injury, the team should provide more information in the near future. Matthew Batten will shift to the keystone while Eguy Rosario starts at third base. Jurickson Profar is now batting atop the order.

  • Reds' Jonathan India: Steps out of lineup

    India is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

    India started all six games since he returned from the injured list last weekend, and he'll take a seat Sunday after he went 4-for-24 with two homers and five RBI. Spencer Steer will start at second base and bat leadoff for Cincinnati.

  • Ji-Hwan Bae 2B | NYM

    Pirates' Ji Hwan Bae: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Bae is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Bae started the previous 12 games and will receive Sunday off after he posted a .217/.265/.326 slash line during that span. Liover Peguero will shift to the keystone while Alika Williams starts at shortstop against New York lefty Carlos Rodon.
