  • Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN

    Reds' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Not starting Saturday

    Hayes isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Mets.

    Hayes has gone 10-for-24 with a homer, six RBI and four runs scored across his last six contests. He'll catch his breath Saturday while Sal Stewart starts at the hot corner, batting seventh.

  • Ernie Clement SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Not starting Saturday

    Clement isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

    Clement went 1-for-4 with an RBI during a win in Friday's series opener and will now retreat to the bench while Isiah Kiner-Falefa picks up a start at the hot corner, batting seventh.

  • Nathan Eaton LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Starts in right field

    Eaton started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Friday's 10-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Right field has become a problem for the Red Sox, who are dealing with injuries to Wilyer Abreu (calf) and Roman Anthony (oblique). In the two games since Anthony joined Abreu on the IL -- both against left-handers -- Rob Refsnyder and Eaton have filled the void. Saturday's game will provide a look as to how manager Alex Cora plans to fill the void against a right-hander (Brandon Pfaadt).

  • Alex Bregman 3B | BOS

    Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Logs multiple hits in loss

    Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's 10-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Bregman's two-run double was part of a four-run eighth inning that pulled the Red Sox within a run before Arizona ran away in the bottom of the frame. He's slumped since his last multi-hit game on Aug. 22; Bregman entered the night batting .104 (5-for-48) with two RBI over the previous 12 games.

  • Jordan Lawlar SS | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Returns to starting nine

    Lawlar started at third base and went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 10-5 win over Boston.

    Lawlar, who was given a day off after snapping an 0-for-36 run in the majors Tuesday, was back in the starting lineup. He's collected three hits, including a pair of doubles, an RBI and scored three runs since ending the hitless streak. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo talked about Lawlar attacking earlier in counts as a factor in breaking the slump, and the infielder continued that Friday. Lawlar saw a total of 11 pitches in his four plate appearances, one of which was a six-pitch at-bat and two where he swung at the first pitch.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Another long ball Friday

    Caminero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-1 loss to the Guardians.

    Caminero launched a 421-foot solo shot off Gavin Williams in the sixth inning for his 41st homer of the year. The 22-year-old has been on a scorching hot pace since the start of August, blasting 14 home runs in that span, the most in MLB, while batting .298 (37-for-124) with 32 RBI and 25 runs scored. Caminero is up to a .263/.304/.541 slash line with 103 RBI, 85 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 573 plate appearances and is inching closer toward the Rays' single-season home run record of 46, set by Carlos Pena in 2007.

  • Royals' Maikel Garcia: Breakout campaign continues

    Garcia went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday in a 2-1 win against the Twins.

    Garcia smacked homer No. 16 on the year, and he registered his first hits of the month of September. While the speedy infielder had been more of a steals specialist for fantasy managers in past seasons, he's bloomed into a five-category contributor in 2025. Through 577 plate appearances, Garcia is slashing .294/.357/.472 with 55 extra-base hits, 66 RBI, 66 runs scored and 22 stolen bases.

  • Mark Vientos DH | NYM

    Mets' Mark Vientos: Goes deep in win

    Vientos went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 5-4 win over the Reds.

    Vientos made an early impact, driving in a run and scoring in the first inning before crushing a 427-foot homer in the third. The 25-year-old has been on a tear since the All-Star break, batting .285 with 19 extra-base hits and 32 RBI over 35 games. For the season, he owns a .245/.298/.441 slash line with 16 home runs, 56 RBI and 41 runs scored across 396 plate appearances.

  • Nolan Arenado 3B | STL

    Cardinals' Nolan Arenado: Aiming for Sept. 15 return

    Arenado (shoulder) expects to begin a rehab assignment next week and return from the 10-day injured list Sept. 15 for the start of the Cardinals' homestand, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Arenado has been rehabbing a right shoulder strain at the team's spring training complex and is nearly ready to play in rehab games, likely at Double-A Springfield. Barring any setbacks, Arenado is expected back for the beginning of the Cardinals' final homestand of the season.

  • Connor Norby 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Connor Norby: Placed on IL with quad strain

    The Marlins placed Norby on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a strained left quadriceps.

    Maximo Acosta was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville and is starting at second base Friday against the Phillies, while Javier Sanoja will fill Norby's void at third base and bat ninth. Norby had been batting .303 with a .909 OPS over the previous 30 days.
