Arenado went 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Rockies.

Arenado finished the Diamondbacks' scoring with a solo homer in the seventh inning. It was the second home run in as many games and 28th of the season for the third basemen, who also extended a hit streak to eight contests. He's helped carry Arizona during its playoff chase in September, going 21-for-51 (.412) with three doubles, seven home runs, 14 RBI and 10 runs scored over his last 14 contests.

Guzman went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 9-7 loss to the Athletics.

Guzman has gone 14-for-55 (.255) over 16 games in September, picking up just three extra-base hits along the way. The infielder provided a big play Tuesday, though the Angels' bullpen gave up the lead later on. Guzman is now batting .226 with a .622 OPS, eight homers, 33 RBI, 31 runs scored, nine doubles and two stolen bases over 285 plate appearances this season.

Gelof went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 9-7 win over the Angels.

Gelof gave the Athletics their margin of victory with his eighth-inning blast. The infielder has gone 7-for-20 (.350) with two homers and six RBI over his last five games. For the season, he's reached the 20-homer mark for the first time while batting .253 with a .781 OPS, 52 RBI, 71 runs scored, 15 doubles, two triples and 14 stolen bases over 106 games.

Paredes went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 7-0 win over the Mariners.

Loftin went 1-for-4 with a homer and two RBI during Tuesday's 14-11 loss to the White Sox.

Loftin extended his modest hitting streak to four games and blasted his first long ball since Sept. 1 on Tuesday. The 27-year-old launched a solo shot off Anthony Kay in the third inning to cut the lead. This year, Loftin is batting .240/.323/.387 with eight homers and 45 RBI over 422 plate appearances.

Hayes is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

Hayes started the previous two games and will hit the bench for Tuesday's contest while in the midst of a 1-for-18 slump. Eugenio Suarez will step in at third base while Dane Myers starts in the outfield, pushing Hector Rodriguez to the DH spot.

The Athletics reinstated Kuroda-Grauer (groin) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Kuroda-Grauer had been out since suffering a testicular contusion July 20 against the Diamondbacks. He got surgery to address the testicle that was ruptured and was able to start rehab in the middle of August. As the young prospect returns to action Tuesday, the Athletics placed Max Muncy (knee) on the 10-day injured list and transferred J.T. Ginn (elbow) to the 60-injured list in corresponding moves.

Manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that the Cubs will not place Bregman (face) on the injured list, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

Bregman suffered multiple facial fractures after getting struck by a foul ball while in the on-deck circle Sunday. Though it remains unknown how far away he is from returning, the Cubs say that they are taking a day-by-day approach with the veteran third baseman and haven't ruled him out of returning before the end of the regular season. In the meantime, Pedro Ramirez is expected to receive the bulk of starts at third base.

The Athletics placed Muncy on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to left knee chondromalacia.

Muncy's 2026 season has come to a close with him landing on the 10-day injured list. He finished the year with a .230/.296/.387 slash line and nine home runs across 284 plate appearances in 82 games. In corresponding moves Tuesday, the Athletics reinstated Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (groin) from the 60-day injured list and transferred J.T. Ginn (elbow) to the 60-day injured list.

Karros (back) is starting at third base and batting sixth Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

The 24-year-old was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners due to back spasms, but he's good to go after Monday's team off day. Karros returned from a concussion in early September and has a .214/.298/.429 slash line with two homers and four RBI in 11 games since coming off the IL.
