  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Sitting out finale

    Chisholm is not in Sunday's lineup against the Pirates.

    The Yankees are resting Juan Soto and Aaron Judge as well. Chisholm is 5-for-12 with one home run, two doubles and two steals over his last three games, giving him plenty of momentum heading into the playoffs.

  • Orioles' Emmanuel Rivera: Career game in Minnesota

    Rivera went 4-for-4 with two home runs, a double, a walk, four RBI and three runs scored in Saturday's 9-2 win over the Twins.

    Rivera has had to battle for playing time ever since he got to Baltimore, but he's produced with a .323/.380/.597 slash line over 26 games with the team. He doubled his homer total with the Orioles in a big game Saturday. Overall in 2024, he's slashing .240/.314/.346 with five homers, 29 RBI, 24 runs scored and two stolen bases across 300 plate appearances between the Orioles and the Marlins. With Baltimore having gotten healthier late in the regular season, Rivera may be limited to a bench role if he's included on the postseason roster.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Smacks 39th home run

    Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's 4-3 loss against the Astros.

    Ramirez took Justin Verlander deep in the first inning, and he's now one homer away from a 40-40 season. If he plays in Sunday's season finale, Ramirez has a chance to become the first primary third baseman ever to post a 40-40 season.

  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Launches 24th homer

    Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Pirates.

    He got the Yankees on the board with a fifth-inning solo shot off Mike Burrows, but the Bucs already had a 4-0 lead at that point. Chisholm reached 40 steals on the season Friday, and he now sits one homer short of 25 with one game left to play on the regular-season schedule. The 26-year-old has been outstanding for New York since being acquired at the trade deadline -- 11 of his long balls, and 18 of his stolen bases, have come in only 46 games as a Yankee.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Homers, drives in three

    Caminero went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

    Caminero gave the Rays the lead with a two-run homer in the third inning off Kutter Crawford, his sixth home run of the season. The 21-year-old now has three home runs over his last 10 games. Caminero has been playing regularly since getting his call-up in August, and he's now slashing .255/.306/.435 with 18 RBI in 42 games.

  • Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Not starting Saturday

    Westburg isn't in the Orioles' lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    After going 0-for-5 with an RBI in Friday's contest, Westburg will step aside Saturday while Ramon Urias starts at second base, opening up third for Emmanuel Rivera.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | CHC

    Astros' Alex Bregman: Idle Saturday

    Bregman isn't in the Astros' lineup for Saturday's game against the Guardians.

    Bregman will get a day off Saturday following his three-hit performance during Friday's win. Grae Kessinger will get the nod at the hot corner in Bregman's stead.

  • Jose Miranda 3B | MIN

    Twins' Jose Miranda: Lands on IL

    The Twins placed Miranda on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a lower-back strain.

    With only two games left in the regular season and the Twins out of the running for a playoff spot, Miranda's move to the IL will rule him out for the rest of 2024. The 26-year-old will finish the season with a .284/.322/.441 slash line alongside nine home runs and 49 RBI across 429 plate appearances. Michael Helman was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding move.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Notches 41st steal

    Ramirez went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Astros.

    Ramirez was held hitless for just the fifth time in September over 24 games. He's batting .295 (28-for-95) this month while adding seven steals on 10 attempts. Ramirez has a career-high 41 steals this season, but his pursuit of a 40-40 campaign is running out of time -- he's at 38 homers with two games left on the schedule. The third baseman has added a .277/.334/.530 slash line, 115 RBI, 113 runs scored, 38 doubles and two triples over 157 games, matching his career high in games played for the third time, having previously reached the mark in 2018 and 2022.

  • Ezequiel Duran SS | TEX

    Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Reinstated from paternity list

    The Rangers reinstated Duran from the paternity list Friday.

    Duran missed the Rangers' last three games while on paternity leave, but the 25-year-old will be available for the upcoming weekend series against the Angels. For the month of September, Duran has slashed .288/.327/.442 with five doubles, one home run and six RBI across 55 plate appearances.
