Meneses went 1-for-1 with a three-run homer in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.

Pinch-hitting for Blake Rutherford in the seventh inning, Meneses launched a clutch three-run homer off Bryan Shaw, putting the Nationals ahead 4-2 en route to a 4-3 victory. The homer was Menses' first in 37 games, with his last coming Aug. 8. While he's hit only 12 homers this year, the 31-year-old Menses is still slashing a solid .279/.326/.406 with a team-high 84 RBI to go with 67 runs scored through 610 plate appearances.

Martinez went 2-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Tigers.

Martinez has enjoyed hitting against his former team, going 5-for-6 with three homers and six RBI over the first two games of this series. The designated hitter is at 29 long balls this season, putting him within striking distance of his first 30-homer campaign since 2019. He's added a .270/.324/.566 slash line with 92 RBI, 56 runs scored, a stolen base, 24 doubles and two triples through 102 contests in his first season with the Dodgers.

Pederson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Pederson is hitting .261 (12-for-46) with five extra-base hits and six RBI over 14 contests in September. His homer in the first inning put the Giants ahead 2-0, but the lead was gone by the end of the second. The veteran slugger is up to 14 homers, 50 RBI, 56 runs scored and a .248/.357/.432 slash line through 111 contests in his customary strong-side platoon role.

Blackmon is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Padres.

Blackmon has put together four straight multi-hit games, but it'll be Kris Bryant manning the DH role for the Rockies on Tuesday as they take on tough left-hander Blake Snell at Petco Park in San Diego. Nolan Jones, Brenton Doyle and Hunter Goodman are starting across the outfield.

Meneses is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the White Sox.

Dominic Smith will start at first base for the Nationals as Keibert Ruiz takes a turn in the DH role and Drew Millas does the catching. Meneses went 0-for-4 in Monday's series opener against Chicago and is slashing just .222/.271/.259 in 59 plate appearances since the calendar flipped to September.

Canario will serve as the designated hitter and bat ninth Tuesday versus the Pirates.

Canario has spent most of September on the Cubs' active major-league roster, but this will be his first appearance in the starting lineup. The 23-year-old put up an .866 OPS with eight homers, 35 RBI, two steals and 23 runs scored in 36 games for Triple-A Iowa prior to arriving in Chicago.

McCutchen (Achilles) was transferred Tuesday from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

This is a procedural move to clear out a 40-man roster spot for the arrival of Kyle Nicolas. McCutchen suffered a partial tear of left his Achilles tendon earlier this month and had already been ruled out for the remainder of the 2023 campaign.

Blackmon went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Monday against the Padres.

Blackmon reached base three times in total, as he was also hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. He's tallied two hits in each of his last four games, a tally that includes three doubles, a triple, two RBI and four runs scored. The majority of that production came at Coors Field -- the team began a six-game road trip Monday -- and Blackmon has maintained just a .696 OPS away from home this season.

Martinez went 3-for-4 with two home runs and five RBI in Monday's 8-3 win over the Tigers.

Martinez opened the scoring with a second-inning solo shot, popped a three-run blast an inning later and tacked on the Dodgers' last run with an RBI single in the seventh. He's gone 13-for-36 (.361) over nine contests since he returned from a groin/hamstring issue that sent him to the injured list in August. The designated hitter is slashing .266/.318/.556 with 28 homers, 91 RBI, 55 runs scored and a stolen base through 101 contests overall.

Soler (oblique) went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, two runs scored and a walk in Sunday's 16-2 win over Atlanta.

Soler was activated from the injured list Sunday and was in the lineup for the first time since Sept. 5. He wasted little time making an impact, drilling a two-run shot in the sixth inning. The 31-year-old slugger is up to 36 home runs this season, including 11 in 26 games since the start of August. Soler's season slash line is up to .243/.332/.520 with 73 RBI through 536 plate appearances.
