Alvarez went 3-for-5 with three doubles and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-0 win over the Phillies.

Alvarez had a productive game Tuesday, his second with multiple extra-base hits in his last five contests. While he's gone 13 games without a home run, he's racked up seven doubles, seven RBI and six runs scored in that span. The 25-year-old slugger is up to a .304/.405/.612 slash line with 37 homers, 96 RBI, 95 runs scored, 29 doubles and a stolen base through 134 contests. His 1.017 OPS ranks second in baseball behind only Aaron Judge.

Interim manager Miguel Cairo said Jimenez won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's season finale against Minnesota, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

The 25-year-old went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run during Wednesday's 8-3 victory, which will end up being his final start of the season. Barring an appearance off the bench, Jimenez will finish 2022 with a .295/.358/.500 slash line, 16 home runs, 54 RBI and 40 runs in 84 games.

Cabrera is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Mariners.

Cabrera started Game 1 and went 1-for-3 with a walk. The veteran has confirmed he will return for the 2023 season, though his fantasy appeal has mostly vanished. The former MVP has a .622 OPS this year with just five home runs and 43 RBI.

Winker (neck) is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Tigers, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

Winker was scratched from Monday's lineup with the neck issue and won't start either game of Tuesday's twin bill. Jarred Kelenic will start in left field and bat second in the nightcap.

Winker (neck) is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Tueday's doubleheader against the Tigers.

Winker is day-to-day with a neck issue. Adam Frazier is starting in left field and batting eighth.

Ramirez will sit Tuesday against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Ramirez has been in a small slump recently, going hitless in five of his last six games. Isaac Paredes will get the nod at first base in his absence.

Stanton will sit for the first half of Tuesday's doubleheader against Texas.

The Yankees are resting several veterans during the afternoon game, as there's no sense in overworking anybody late in the season with the team locked into the second seed in the American League. Aaron Judge will rest his legs in Stanton's usual designated hitter spot.

Mariners manager Scott Servais said Winker was scratched from the lineup ahead of Monday's 4-3 loss to the Tigers due to a neck issue, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

The injury looks to be a day-to-day concern, but it could be enough to keep Winker on the bench for both ends of Tuesday's doubleheader with Detroit. Sam Haggerty also departed Monday's game with a groin injury and is also iffy for the twin bill, potentially leaving the Mariners shorthanded in the outfield.

Stanton went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in Monday's win over the Rangers.

Stanton launched a solo homer off Jonathan Hernandez in the eighth frame, expanding the Yankees' lead to 3-0. The long ball was his 30th of the campaign and sixth since Sept. 10. Over his last 17 games, Stanton has produced a .197 average with six homers, 13 RBI and 12 runs.

Winker has been scratched from Monday's starting lineup against the Tigers.

It's unclear if Winker was removed from the starting nine due to an injury, or whether skipper Scott Servais simply had a change of heart. Sam Haggerty will start the contest in left field and bat eighth.
