Wisdom went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Dodgers.

Wisdom has six stolen bases this year, and four of them have come in his last 10 games. The 30-year-old isn't much of a speedster -- the most steals he's had in a year was 13 between Triple-A Memphis and the Cardinals in 2018. Still, it's an added bonus for his fantasy managers. Wisdom's added 17 home runs, 45 RBI, 46 runs scored and 17 doubles despite a .231 batting average through 81 contests as a near-everyday presence in the Cubs' lineup this year.

Ramirez went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, two runs and three RBI in a 13-1 win against the Royals on Saturday.

Ramirez was the driving force behind Cleveland's resounding victory with an RBI single in the first inning, two-run homer in the second and double in the fourth. The 29-year-old had been struggling through his first seven games of July with a .160/.222/.280 line and the long ball was his first since June 10. Through 79 games, Ramirez is slashing .291/.372/.585 with 17 homers, 12 stolen bases, 50 runs and 66 RBI.

Devers (back) isn't expected to hit the injured list but won't play until at least Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Devers left Friday's game against the Yankees and won't take part in the final two games of the series. Bobby Dalbec will be the third baseman Saturday and could be called on again Sunday, but Devers should have the chance to return for another key divisional matchup Monday against the Rays.

LeMahieu isn't starting Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

LeMahieu led off in the last four games and went 6-for-19 with four runs, two RBI and a stolen base during that time. He'll get a breather while Anthony Rizzo (back) returns to the lineup at first base with Matt Carpenter starting in left field.

McMahon isn't in the lineup Saturday against Arizona, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

McMahon is getting a breather after he went 4-for-16 with two RBI, a run, two stolen bases and six strikeouts over the last four games. Elehuris Montero is starting at the hot corner and batting eighth.

Donaldson went 1-for-4 with a walk, a three-run home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 12-5 win over the Red Sox.

His first-inning blast off Connor Seabold got the ball rolling on another huge night for the Yankees offense. Donaldson has gone deep in three straight games, amassing nine RBI during his power surge, but on the season he still carries a sluggish .231/.318/.412 slash line with nine homers, two steals, 28 runs and 32 RBI through 65 contests.

Bregman went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in an 8-3 victory over the Athletics on Friday.

Bregman helped power his team to victory by plating Yordan Alvarez on his 11th home run of the season. The two-run blast gives Bregman 44 RBI and 46 runs on the season to go along with a .242/.362/.423 slash line. He's posted multiple hits in two of his last four games. Bregman should continue to post quality counting stat numbers as the veteran cleanup hitter knows how to handle the bat and is nestled in-between Alvarez and Kyle Tucker in the productive Astros lineup.

Suarez went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 5-2 extra-innings win over the Blue Jays.

Suarez delivered the biggest hit of the contest, a walkoff blast in the 11th inning for his 15th homer of the year. He's seeing the ball well in July -- he's gone 9-for-27 (.333) with two homers and a double in his last seven contests. The third baseman's recent surge has him up to a .243/.334/.447 slash line with 44 RBI, 41 runs scored and 17 doubles through 84 contests.

Machado went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and two walks in Friday's 6-3 win over the Giants.

Machado got the scoring started with his first-inning blast off Sam Long, which was the third baseman's second long ball in as many games. He's shown power but not consistency early in July, going 4-for-22 (.181) with two homers and a double across seven games. It's likely just a bump in the road, as the 30-year-old owns a .315/.390/.541 slash line with 14 homers, 50 RBI, 51 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 74 contests this year.

Candelario went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 7-5 win over the White Sox.

Candelario belted a two-run homer off Lucas Giolito in the sixth inning before hitting an RBI single and scoring in the seventh. It was his sixth home run of the year and first since May 29. The 28-year-old registered a brutal .483 OPS during his 20-game homerless drought and he's now slashing .191/.257/.320 through 65 games this season.
