Marte went 1-for-3 with a walk in a loss to the Phillies on Monday.

Marte made a somewhat abrupt return after a dramatic couple weeks during which he initially no-showed a game against Boston before landing on the restricted list and then on the IL due to a knee injury. The infielder was greeted by a chorus of boos by his home crowd upon his first at-bat, which ended with a groundout. However, Marte ultimately got aboard twice with a sixth-inning walk and an eighth-inning single. The Diamondbacks are currently half a game behind San Diego for the NL's final wild-card spot, so Marte figures to be a consistent presence in Arizona's lineup moving forward despite his recent antics.

Grissom went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two runs and four RBI in a 10-1 win over the Yankees on Monday.

Grissom put the Angels on the board with a run-scoring single in the third inning. He added an RBI on a fielder's choice in the sixth and finished his night with a two-run double in the eighth. It was Grissom's sixth performance this season of three or more hits, and it was his first multi-hit effort since he slugged two homers Aug. 25 versus Cleveland. The 25-year-old ended August on a high note, but he didn't have a great month overall, batting just .212 with two homers, six doubles, 12 RBI, one stolen base and a 3:24 BB:K over 26 contests.

Foscue went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-1 victory over the Athletics.

Foscue demolished a center-cut fastball from Gage Jump into the left-field seats for a solo homer in the fourth inning. The infielder has been hot at the dish of late, slashing .282/.349/.590 with three homers over his past 15 contests. With most of his starts coming against left-handed pitching, Foscue is hitting .261/.327/.494 with 10 homers, 26 RBI and 21 runs across 199 plate appearances this season.

Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 17-3 win over the Brewers.

Hoerner contributed early in the blowout win, launching a solo homer to left field in the first inning. It marked the 29-year-old's first long ball since Aug. 4, as he slashed .287/.309/.333 with eight RBI, seven runs and five stolen bases during the 22-game homer drought. On the year, Hoerner is hitting .263/.319/.362 with eight homers, 62 RBI, 55 runs and 22 stolen bases across 135 contests.

The Rockies are expected to recall Amador from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday when rosters expand, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.

Amador will provide Colorado with more infield depth once the move becomes official ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Baltimore. He spent five games with the Rockies earlier in the year, going 3-for-10 with one home run, six RBI and five runs.

Lee went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 11-1 loss to the Twins.

Lee provided all of Detroit's offense in the lopsided loss with a sixth inning solo shot, his eighth home run of the season. The rookie, who started at third base Monday before shifting over to second, has settled into a regular infield role recently for the Tigers. Detroit is now sitting at 63-74 and falling out of the playoff race, which means Lee is likely to hold onto the increased playing time, with veteran Gleyber Torres in line to see his opportunities decrease. Lee has played well so far at the MLB level and is only boosting his fantasy stock heading into 2027, when he could be a full-time starter to begin the year.

Altuve is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

Altuve will hit the bench for the first time since Aug. 12, ending a streak of 15 consecutive starts. He'll be spelled at second base by Nick Allen, who will bat eighth.

Walton is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

After making starts in the middle infield for the final two games of the Athletics' weekend series versus the Orioles, Walton will hit the bench for the first of three contests in Arlington. Jeff McNeil will cover the keystone and Darell Hernaiz will draw the start at shortstop Monday.

Ramirez isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers due to back spasms, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Ramirez is hitting .333 with two runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored over his last seven games, but he'll be held out Monday with the back issue. It remains to be seen whether he'll be back in the starting nine for Tuesday's matchup.

The Marlins recalled Serna from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

The 24-year-old Serna will hit the big leagues for the first time and will provide the Marlins with some added depth in the middle infield after second baseman Xavier Edwards (thumb) was placed on the injured list. Over 337 plate appearances with Jacksonville on the season, Serna slashed .218/.300/.364 with 11 home runs and 14 stolen bases.
