Devers went 1-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 extra-innings win over the Diamondbacks.

Devers singled in the 11th inning, driving in the Giants' final run. The 28-year-old has reached base safely in back-to-back outings after having been held hitless in his previous three. Over 15 games this month, he's slashing .190/.299/.362 with 12 runs scored, 10 RBI, three home runs and a 28.4 percent strikeout rate across 67 plate appearances.

Ballesteros went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Pirates.

Ballesteros has settled in as Chicago's primary designated hitter recently, having started the last six games, and he's responding well at the plate. The 21-year-old rookie has gone 8-for-21 across those six contests with a triple, two home runs, three RBI and five runs scored. With Kyle Tucker (calf) on the injured list, the Cubs have used more of Willi Castro and Seiya Suzuki in right field, which has opened the door at DH for Ballesteros. He should maintain elevated fantasy value this season for however long Tucker remains out, and the youngster's long-term outlook remains promising.

McCutchen went 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Cubs.

McCutchen was involved in a pair of Pirates rallies, scoring on a Joey Bart home run after singling in the first frame and then walking in a run one inning later. He's had mixed results in September, hitting only .175 across 40 at-bats, though he's also delivered six RBI and six runs scored across 11 games.

Lux batted leadoff and went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Cardinals.

Lux stepped in atop the order for TJ Friedl, who was given the day off. The multi-hit effort was Lux's first since Aug. 18 and his third consecutive game with a base hit. He's doing his best to break out of a September funk; prior to his three-game hit streak, Lux was hitless over 21 at-bats.

Ohtani went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 5-0 victory over the Phillies on Wednesday.

Ohtani provided an insurance run for Los Angeles with his solo blast to center field in the eighth inning. The long ball was the two-way star's second in as many days and 51st overall this season. That's third most in the majors behind Cal Raleigh (56) and Kyle Schwarber (53). Ohtani has now reached base safely in 22 straight contests and is slashing .289/.422/.602 with seven home runs, 12 RBI, 17 runs, 19 walks and two stolen bases during that span.

Ozuna went 3-for-5 with a double and three RBI in Wednesday's 9-4 win over the Nationals.

The veteran DH has fallen to eighth in the order in most of Atlanta's recent lineups, but he was able to make an impact from that spot Wednesday with a two-run single in the sixth inning and an RBI double in the eighth. The RBI were his first since Aug. 26, and Ozuna has gone 28 games without a home run, leaving him stalled at 20 on the season. His bat has been showing signs of life of late, however -- he's batting .360 (9-for-25) over his last seven contests with four doubles.

Ohtani has had discussions with the Dodgers about playing the outfield so that he could be used as a reliever, Michael J. Duarte of NBC LA reports.

If Ohtani were to start at designated hitter and then pitch in relief, once he was taken out of the game as a reliever, he would also have to be removed as a DH. Having Ohtani play some in the outfield would be a way for the Dodgers to get around that. It's not clear what the likelihood of Ohtani playing the outfield is, nor is it known whether the team would consider doing it down the stretch of the regular season or only for the playoffs. Ohtani has never started a game in the outfield in the majors, though he did appear in seven contests in the outfield with the Angels in 2021.

Del Castillo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

Del Castillo has now been out of the lineup three times across the last four contests and has not made consecutive starts since mid-August. For the second time in their last three games, the Diamondbacks are going with Gabriel Moreno at designated hitter and James McCann at catcher.

Suzuki (illness) will start in right field and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

After being held out of action for each of the last five games due to a bout with bronchitis, Suzuki has finally made enough improvement in his recovery to re-enter the Chicago lineup for the series finale. With Kyle Tucker (calf) still on the injured list, Suzuki will pick up a start in the corner outfield, which will keep the designated-hitter spot open up for the hot-hitting Moises Ballesteros.

Yelich went 3-for-5 with an RBI double and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 9-2 victory over the Angels.

Yelich opened the scoring with an RBI double to right field in the first inning, and then added his 29th homer of the season with a two-run shot to straightaway center in the fourth inning. The 33-year-old has been locked in since the start of August, batting .303/.384/.538 with seven doubles, nine homers and 30 RBI over his last 38 games.
