Muncy (side) is starting at third base and batting fifth Tuesday against the Padres, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

The third baseman was scratched from the lineup Sunday against the Rockies due to side soreness, but he's ready to play following Monday's team off day. Muncy started off September by going 0-for-11, but he has a .286/.446/.643 slash line with three doubles, four homers, 11 RBI and 12 runs in his past 14 games.

Rojas isn't in the Mariners' lineup for Tuesday's game against Houston.

The left-handed-hitting Rojas will step out of the lineup Tuesday while southpaw Framber Valdez starts on the mound for the Astros. Dylan Moore will man the hot corner instead and bat ninth.

Hernaiz was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

Hernaiz was optioned at the end of August after playing in 20 games in his return from the 60-day injured list. He now rejoins the big-league club after posting an .836 OPS in Triple-A since then. In a corresponding move, Ryan Noda was optioned to Double-A Midland.

Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Tuesday that Riley (hand) won't return this season, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports.

The 27-year-old underwent a CT scan Monday which showed that his hand fracture is healing slower than expected, which will prevent Riley from having a chance to take the field again this season. Atlanta is currently 1.5 games back of the final wild-card spot in the National League, but Riley won't be an option to play even if the team makes a playoff run. The third baseman closes out 2024 with 19 homers, 56 RBI, 63 runs and a .256/.322/.461 slash line in 110 games.

Sosa is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Angels.

Sosa had started each of the previous 10 games at second base but will begin this one on the bench. Nicky Lopez will handle the keystone and bat leadoff for the White Sox.

Jung is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Jung has now been absent from the Tigers' lineup for seven of the last 10 games. The rookie has just a .675 OPS and 31.5 percent strikeout rate in his first 31 big-league contests. Zach McKinstry is handling third base Tuesday as manager A.J. Hinch continues to mix and match at the hot corner.

Chapman went 2-for-4 with an inside-the-park home run, a triple, a walk and three RBI in Monday's 6-3 win over the Diamondbacks.

Chapman has gone 4-for-11 since his stint on the paternity list, with three of the hits since his return being homers. The third baseman is up to 27 long balls this year, a total he's reached in three of the last four seasons. He has a .249/.332/.466 slash line, 78 RBI, 96 runs scored, 15 stolen bases, 36 doubles and two triples over 149 contests.

Paredes went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Phillies.

Paredes snapped an 0-for-13 slump that stretched across his last five games with the two hits Monday. The 25-year-old has shown flashes of promise since joining the Cubs via trade in late July, but his performance overall has been disappointing. In 47 games with Chicago, Paredes is batting just .216 with a .634 OPS. He had a .792 OPS in 101 games with Tampa Bay before the trade.

The Rangers are expected to place Jung (wrist) on the 10-day injured list, ending his season, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Jung hasn't played since last Wednesday due to recurring discomfort in his surgically repaired right wrist. He is scheduled to be seen by a hand specialist Thursday in hopes of getting more information on the injury. Ezequiel Duran has started three of the last four games at third base and should continue to be the primary option at the position in the final week of the season. The Rangers are expected to promote either Dustin Harris or Sam Huff from the minors to take Jung's spot on the 28-man active roster.

Clement went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Sunday's loss to the Rays.

Batting second Sunday and getting another start at shortstop in the absence of Bo Bichette (finger), Clement continued a strong September that has seen him slash .292/.301/.389 in 18 games with a homer, two steals, four RBI and 10 runs. The 28-year-old infielder should retain a regular spot in the lineup over the final week of the season, and he's positioned himself for a prime role in the Blue Jays' 2025 plans.
