Gimenez went 3-for-5 with a double and one RBI in Thursday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Twins.

Gimenez logged his first multi-hit effort in over a week, and it was his third hit that sealed the win for the Guardians. He's batting .263 (20-for-76) with five extra-base hits and eight RBI over 18 games in September, and he's added five stolen bases in that span. The second baseman is up to a .253/.301/.337 slash line with 30 steals, eight home runs, 61 RBI and 63 runs scored over 146 games this season.

Garcia (wrist) isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Garcia will be missing his second straight start Thursday as a result of wrist discomfort that flared up during Tuesday's contest. As he continues to recover, Darren Baker will pick up a start at the keystone and bat eighth.

Altuve is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Angels, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Altuve started the previous six contests after missing one game with soreness in his right side, but he'll be given rest Thursday in what looks to be a routine day off. Mauricio Dubon is at second base for the Astros and Alex Bregman has moved up to the leadoff spot.

Morel is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Red Sox.

Morel had started the last two games after missing the two contests prior to that with a sore Achilles. His absence from the lineup Thursday appears to be a routine day off. Most of Morel's playing time lately has come in left field, but Dylan Carlson will handle that spot for the Rays on Thursday.

Albies (wrist) will be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's game in Miami, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Things were pointing in that direction, but Atlanta presumably wanted to wait to see how he bounced back from a couple rehab games with Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday and Wednesday before officially clearing him to return to the active roster. The switch-hitting Albies will bat exclusively from the right side upon his return, at least initially, due to continued discomfort in his fractured left hand when swinging from the left side.

The Marlins designated Devers for assignment Thursday, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Devers was recalled at the start of September but has played sparingly this month while dealing with a hand injury. The 24-year-old slashed just .228/.293/.360 across 209 plate appearances this season with Triple-A Jacksonville.

The Marlins activated Brujan (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Thursday, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Brujan has been out all month due to a right shoulder AC joint sprain but is ready to return after playing a couple rehab games with Triple-A Jacksonville. He should see a good amount of playing time down the stretch in a super-utility role.

Walton will start at second base and bat ninth in Thursday's game against the Orioles, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Walton will pick up his fourth consecutive start at the keystone, including his third in a row against a right-handed starting pitcher. Since being called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Walton has gone 2-for-13 with a home run and two walks, but that modest level of production looks like it'll be enough for him to be the favored option at second base over Brett Wisely, who is batting .123 since the beginning of August.

Wisely is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Orioles, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

The lefty-hitting Wisely will hit the bench for a second straight game, with the Giants having faced right-handed starters in both contests. The consecutive days off could hint that Wisely has lost hold of a regular role in the middle infield after slashing an abysmal .123/.177/.158 since the beginning of August. Donovan Walton is included in the lineup for a fourth consecutive contest and may be viewed as the Giants' top option at the keystone for now.

Yorke went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's loss to the Cardinals.

Yorke reached on an infield single in his second trip to the plate before stealing second, though he was left stranded. He then recorded a clutch knock with two outs in the sixth and eventually came home on a three-run shot from Billy Cook as Pittsburgh took a 5-4 lead. The second baseman has now recorded multiple hits in back-to-back contests after going 0-for-3 in his Pirates debut Monday. His RBI and run scored on Wednesday also marked the firsts of his MLB career.
