    Dodgers' Miguel Rojas: Day-to-day with tight hamstring

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Rojas is day-to-day after exiting Monday's NLDS Game 2 win over the Phillies with hamstring tightness, Cody Snavely of DodgersBeat.com reports.

    Roberts noted that Rojas' hamstring has been bothering him "for the past few weeks," and he aggravated the injury in the bottom of the sixth inning when he dove into third base to get an inning-ending forceout. Rojas is not expected to be in the lineup for Game 3 on Wednesday even if he were 100 percent, but it's unclear at this point whether he will be available off the bench.

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: Expected to have normal offseason

    Rangers general manager Ross Fenstermaker said Friday that Semien (foot) is expected to have a normal offseason, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Semien last played in late August due to a fractured third metatarsal and a Lisfranc sprain in his left foot, but he has not encountered any setbacks in his recovery and will not have his offseason training interrupted. The veteran second baseman slashed .230/.305/.364 with 15 home runs and 11 stolen bases over 127 contests in 2025.

  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Getting Game 3 start versus lefty

    Chisholm will start at second base and bat seventh Thursday in Game 3 of the American League Wild Card Series against the Red Sox.

    The left-handed-hitting Chisholm was absent from the lineup in Game 1 versus southpaw ace Garrett Crochet, but he will be in the lineup Thursday against rookie lefty Connelly Early. Chisholm went 0-for-3 but drew a walk and scored the go-ahead run in the Yankees' Game 2 victory.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Beginning Game 2 on bench

    Edman isn't in the lineup for Game 2 of the NL Wild Card Series against the Reds on Wednesday.

    After belting a solo homer during Los Angeles' 10-5 victory in Game 1, Edman will stay in the dugout to begin the second game of the series. His absence will allow Miguel Rojas to start at the keystone and bat eighth.

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Out of lineup against Crochet

    Chisholm is absent from the lineup Tuesday for Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series versus the Red Sox.

    The left-handed-hitting Chisholm was an everyday player for the Yankees this season, but with tough southpaw Garrett Crochet on the bump for the Red Sox, Chisholm will yield to Amed Rosario at second base. For what it's worth, Chisholm is 0-for-4 with a 1:3 BB:K in his career versus Crochet.

  • Darren Baker 2B | WAS

    Darren Baker: Released by Nationals

    The Nationals released Baker on Monday.

    Baker was outrighted off the 40-man roster earlier this month and is now out of the organization altogether. Per Bob Nightengale of USA Today, Baker asked to be released in order to pursue an opportunity elsewhere, and that request was granted. Baker slashed .256/.343/.318 with one homer and 26 steals in 107 games with Triple-A Rochester in 2025.

  • Padres' Jose Iglesias: Absent from Game 1 lineup

    Iglesias is not in the lineup Tuesday for Game 1 of the Wild Card Series versus the Cubs.

    Iglesias started the last two games of the regular season, but he'll retreat to the bench for the first game of the postseason. Jake Cronenworth will occupy second base against lefty Matthew Boyd and the Cubs.

  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Cleared for wild-card series

    Manager Aaron Boone said that Chisholm (forearm) will be available Tuesday for Game 1 of the Yankees' wild-card series with the Red Sox, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Though he didn't start in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Orioles after being plunked in the left forearm by a pitch a day earlier, Chisholm was deployed off the bench in the regular-season finale, going 0-for-1 with a strikeout while also playing the final two innings at second base. Chisholm has apparently checked out fine following that contest and will be good to go as the Yankees begin their playoff run. With a tough lefty (Garrett Crochet) on the mound for Boston on Tuesday, however, it wouldn't be surprising if the left-handed-hitting Chisholm was held out of the lineup in favor of Amed Rosario, who has gone 6-for-9 against Crochet in his career.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Tallies four hits

    Massey went 4-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 9-2 victory over the Athletics.

    Massey capped the regular season swinging well, tying his season high with four hits -- his second four-hit effort in the past five games. Even with that strong finish, it's been a rough year for the utility man, who battled multiple injuries and struggled when on the field, slashing .244/.268/.313 with nine doubles, three homers and 20 RBI across 77 games.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Swipes 27th bag in win

    Edwards went 2-for-5 with an RBI single and a steal during the Marlins' 4-0 win over the Mets on Sunday.

    Edwards capped off the Marlins' four-run fourth inning with an RBI single to center before recording his 27th steal of the season in the seventh, which was just his third steal in September. Edwards will end the 2025 regular season with a .283/.343/.353 slash line with 75 runs, 20 doubles, five triples, three home runs and 43 RBI in 619 plate appearances.
