Martinez isn't in the Mets' lineup for Saturday's game versus the Phillies.

Martinez will get a chance to collect himself Saturday after going 0-for-29 over his last eight games. Starling Marte will replace him as New York's DH, allowing Tyrone Taylor to start in right field while batting sixth.

McCutchen is absent from the starting nine Saturday at Cincinnati.

The 37-year-old will give way to Oneil Cruz at DH on Saturday while Billy Cook slides to center field. McCutchen is 9-for-32 (.281) with a pair of home runs over his last nine games.

Ohtani went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Friday's 6-4 win over the Rockies.

Though he didn't quite match the 6-for-6, three-homer, 10-RBI, two-steal masterpiece that helped him establish the 50-50 club Thursday, Ohtani's performance Friday was another excellent one. Ohtani is not showing any sign of fatigue in the final month of the season -- he now has eight home runs, nine steals and 24 RBI while batting .324 over 18 contests in September. With 52 home runs and 52 steals on his ledger, Ohtani still has time to push for a 55-55 campaign with eight games remaining on the Dodgers' schedule. He's likely to play regularly as long as home-field advantage through the National League playoffs is up for grabs.

O'Hearn isn't in Baltimore's lineup Friday against the Tigers.

With southpaw Tyler Holton set to open Friday's contest for Detroit, the lefty-hitting O'Hearn will take a seat on the bench. While he rests, Coby Mayo will pick up a start at first base and bat seventh.

Yoshida is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Twins.

The Twins are starting a right-hander in David Festa, but the left-handed-hitting Yoshida will nonetheless begin this one on the bench. After an excellent July and August, Yoshida is slashing just .231/.286/.365 so far in September. Tyler O'Neill will be Boston's designated hitter Friday.

Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes said Friday on MLB Network that it's "very unlikely" Ohtani (elbow) will pitch during the postseason.

Ohtani has been throwing off a mound and is expected to face hitters soon as he continues his rehab from Tommy John surgery. Manager Dave Roberts said earlier this month that the chances of Ohtani pitching out of the bullpen some during the playoffs are "not zero," but it was always an extreme long shot and Gomes added that it's "not in the plans as of now." On Thursday, Ohtani become the first player in major-league history to reach 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases in a season. He'll return to being a two-way player in 2025.

Manzardo went 3-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 3-2 win over Minnesota.

Manzardo opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning with a solo shot off Simeon Woods Richardson. The 24-year-old Manzardo has swung the bat well since he was recalled on Sep. 1, going 15-for-42 (.357) with four homers in 16 games after batting just .207 with a .571 OPS across 30 contests in his first stint with the Guardians earlier this year.

Ohtani went 6-for-6 with three home runs, four runs scored, 10 RBI and two stolen bases Thursday in a 20-4 win against the Marlins.

Ohtani entered the game two home runs and one stolen base short of recording the first 50-50 season in MLB history. He quickly reached 50 steals for the season in the first inning, when he swiped third base after reaching base on a leadoff double. Ohtani then went yard in back-to-back frames later in the contest to clinch the impressive milestone. After slugging a three-run home run off position player Vidal Brujan in his final at-bat in the eighth inning, Ohtani became the first player in MLB history to record three home runs and two stolen bases in the same game.

McCutchen is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest in St. Louis.

McCutchen had a couple hits and scored a run in Wednesday's loss to the Cardinals, but he will begin Thursday's series finale on the bench. The Pirates are going with Bryan Reynolds at designated hitter and Nick Yorke in left field.

Rooker went 2-for-3 with an RBI infield single, a stolen base and a walk in a win over the Cubs on Wednesday. He was also caught stealing on another attempt.

Rooker continued his torrid September run Wednesday with his eighth multi-hit effort in 17 games. The slugger got it done with some small ball in the matinee victory after having belted his 36th and 37th home runs of the season on back-to-back days to begin the week. Rooker's on-base streak now sits at 28 games as well, a stretch that dates back to Aug. 20 and has seen him generate a .357/.421/.634 slash line with 13 extra-base hits and 27 RBI across 126 plate appearances.
