Machado went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, three RBI, three runs scored and a walk in Monday's win over St. Louis.

Machado got started early with a two-run shot in the first frame. He walked and scored a run in the third inning before capping off his day with an RBI double and another run scored in the fifth. Machado has collected multiple hits in three of his last four games and 13 of his last 30 contests overall, stretch, producing a .968 OPS with 25 RBI over the latter stretch. Machado is now slashing .272/.325/.456 with 46 extra-base hits through 520 plate appearances on the season.

McMahon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 3-2 win against Miami.

McMahon had the only extra-base hit by either team in the contest, and it was a big one, as his sixth-inning, 438-foot solo shot broke a 2-2 tie and ended up providing the decisive margin of victory. The long ball snapped a 20-game homerless streak for the infielder, and he had batted a meager .155 with a 31.3 percent strikeout rate during the power drought. McMahon now has 17 home runs overall this season, putting him on pace to reach the 20-homer mark for the fourth consecutive campaign.

Paredes went 2-for-5 with a walk, a home run, two additional runs scored and two total RBI in Monday's 18-8 win over the Pirates.

Paredes helped pile on to the rout, launching his 19th home run of the season in the eighth inning. The 25-year-old has recorded three of those long balls in 24 games for the Cubs since coming over in a late July trade, and he's batting .161 for his new team. That's not exactly what fantasy managers had in mind, but Paredes should continue to see regular playing time, and he has the talent to turn things around in a hurry.

Urshela will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Twins.

Since finalizing a one-year contract with Atlanta last Tuesday, Urshela has quickly settled into an everyday role at third base. He'll draw a seventh consecutive start Monday after going 6-for-22 with two doubles, a walk, two RBI and one run in first six games with Atlanta.

General manager Ben Cherington said Sunday that he is optimistic Hayes (back) will return at some point during the 2024 season, MLB.com reports.

Hayes has been sidelined since Aug. 19 with back inflammation and has not resumed much activity. Despite the lack of progress, he should be back to man the hot corner at some point in the coming weeks.

McMahon went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a walk Sunday against the Yankees.

McMahon delivered an RBI double in the fifth inning, snapping a nine-game stretch during which he didn't tally an extra-base hit. While his overall stat line is comparable to past seasons, McMahon has had a disastrous August by hitting .147 with a 31.6 percent strikeout rate across 19 games.

Hernandez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Rays.

Hernandez scored the game's first run with a solo blast to center off Jacob Lopez in the fifth. He's now homered in back-to-back starts after having just one homer since July 21 and has seven RBI in his last eight starts. For the year, the 33-year-old is slashing .215/.276/.350 with nine homers, 33 RBI, 33 runs and a 26:67 BB:K in 326 plate appearances.

Vientos went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Padres.

Vientos took Jason Adam deep to center in the seventh inning for one of two extra-base hits the Mets had all afternoon. It's the third time in his last five games with multiple hits and he's now tied for fourth among all third basemen with 21 homers despite having just 332 plate appearances. Vientos has seen himself batting from the two-hole the last 10 games, and while he owns a .977 OPS over that span, he's also striking out 44.9 percent of the time compared to 24.7 percent before the lineup change. The 24-year-old is enjoying a breakout campaign, slashing .277/.334/.551 with 41 extra-base hits, 55 RBI, 44 runs and a 25:92 BB:K.

Norby went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and three total runs scored in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Cubs.

Norby has hit the ground running with the Marlins, going 9-for-24 (.375) over his first six games with the team. He's homered in back-to-back contests, giving him four long balls on the year. The infielder has added six RBI, 10 runs scored, one stolen base and a .268 batting average through 15 games between Miami and Baltimore this year. Norby is seeing steady playing time at third base, though he's likely to drop back into the bottom half of the order once Xavier Edwards (back) returns -- Norby has hit leadoff in both games Edwards has sat out.

Baty was diagnosed with a fractured left index finger Sunday and is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks.

Baty had .997 OPS in his last 12 games with Triple-A Syracuse and had a chance of rejoining the Mets down the stretch, but the injury will instead put him on the injured list for the foreseeable future. The 25-year-old hasn't been ruled out for the season, but any complications in his recovery would make a return this year difficult.
