Duffy went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Duffy got the Angels on the board when he took a Cole Ragans offering down the left-field line in the second inning. Duffy was part of a rally in the sixth after getting aboard with a single, and he scored the last run of the game. The 31-year-old has posted consecutive multi-hit efforts for the first time since late May. He's up to a .260/.311/.328 slash line with two homers, 14 RBI, 11 runs scored and seven doubles through 206 plate appearances. Duffy appears to have near-everyday playing time at third base.

Henderson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Detroit.

Henderson made the most of his first career start batting leadoff in the big leagues. He recorded his fifth multi-hit effort in his last seven games, including a two-run home run. The homer, Henderson's third on the campaign, was a 409-foot blast to right field in the seventh inning which pulled the game to within one. It's uncertain if he will stick in the leadoff spot, but Henderson looks like he should be a quality source of counting stats down the stretch regardless of where he bats in the order.

Candelario went 4-for-4 with two doubles and one run scored in Tuesday's victory over Baltimore.

Candelario was perfect at the dish Tuesday as he recorded a hit in all four at-bats, two of which went for extra bases. The multi-hit effort was his fifth in his last 15 games, but those games have come sporadically as he has maintained a part-time role since the beginning of September. He's slashing .209/.266/.359 on the season.

Senzel sustained a fractured toe Tuesday against the Red Sox and will miss the rest of the season, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

The 27-year-old suffered the injury Tuesday when he collided with the outfield wall as he attempted to make a running catch, and it will end his 2022 campaign a few weeks early. The oft-injured Senzel played in a career-high 110 games this season and posted a .231/.296/.306 slash line with five home runs, 25 RBI, 45 runs and eight stolen bases.

Senzel left Tuesday's game against Boston early after a hard crash into the outfield wall, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Senzel ran into the center field wall trying to catch a fly ball and immediately fell to the ground after doing so. He attempted to run after being examined by a trainer but couldn't do it and was forced to leave the game. More updates will come as we learn more about his status.

Perez was promoted to Triple-A Sugar Land by the Astros on Tuesday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

With the Double-A regular season coming to an end, Perez will continue playing ball in Triple-A and finish his season there. The 22-year-old infield prospect recorded a .265/.335/.397 slash line this season with Double-A Corpus Christi.

Kreidler is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

Kreidler snapped out of a slump by reaching base three times and driving in three runs Monday, but that did not prevent him from being held out one day later.

Peterson isn't in the lineup Tuesday against the Mets.

Peterson will step out of the lineup after going 2-for-12 with two RBI over his last five games. Luis Urias will take his spot at third base and bat fourth.

Manager Dusty Baker is planning to give Bregman a day off Wednesday, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Bregman will start one day after the Astros clinched the AL West, but it appears he will get a mid-week breather in order to get some rest prior to the postseason.

LeMahieu (toe) could be activated during this week's homestand, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

He took on-field batting practice Tuesday for the first time since landing on the injured list earlier this month. It doesn't sound like LeMahieu will be activated until this weekend, at the earliest.
