Meneses went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk Wednesday against Atlanta.

Meneses took Jesse Chavez deep in the seventh inning to record his 10th home run of the season. After a slow stretch, Meneses now has three long balls across his last 10 starts, while also racking up seven RBI and six runs scored in that span. Meneses has had an impressive MLB debut, maintaining a .328/.364/.563 line across 187 plate appearances.

Solak (foot) was placed on the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

The 27-year-old will miss the rest of the season after he suffered a fractured right foot last week, and the Rangers have moved him to the 60-day IL to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Kevin Plawecki, who signed with Texas on Wednesday. Solak played in 35 big-league games this year and finished with a .207/.309/.329 slash line, three home runs and three stolen bases.

Torrens' contract was selected from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

Torrens was cast off the Mariners' 40-man roster in mid-August and slashed .279/.324/.508 with three home runs, five doubles, 15 RBI and seven runs over 16 games in the minors following his demotion. He'll provide additional catching depth for the Mariners since Cal Raleigh (thumb) is day-to-day.

Carpenter (foot) recently underwent an X-ray that revealed progress in his recovery, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Carpenter has been dealing with a fractured left foot since early August and has progressed well over the last few weeks. He's been cleared to take part in weight-bearing activities and is no longer in a walking boot. The 36-year-old will stand in on a bullpen session Wednesday, and he'll have a chance to rejoin at the Yankees at some point during the postseason if the team makes a run.

Martinez went 2-for-5 with a home run, a triple and two RBI in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Reds.

Martinez's slugging percentage (.423) for the season is still nearly 100 points lower than his 2021 mark (.518), but the 35-year-old is at least showing more pop as the campaign winds down. He's now recorded four extra-base hits in his last two starts, as he previously turned in a pair of doubles in Sunday's 13-3 win over the Royals. He'll be back in the lineup for the Red Sox's series finale in Cincinnati on Wednesday, serving as Boston's designated hitter and No. 5 batter, according to Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican.

McCutchen isn't in the lineup Wednesday against the Mets.

McCutchen started the last two games and went 3-for-6 with a double, a run, an RBI, two walks and two strikeouts. He'll get a breather while Christian Yelich serves as the designated hitter and leads off.

Canha is not in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Brewers.

Canha will get a breather after he went 1-for-6 with a run scored and three strikeouts while starting the first two games of the series. Jeff McNeil will slide out to left field while Luis Guillorme enters the lineup at second base and bats eighth in the series finale.

Jimenez went 1-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Guardians.

Jimenez delivered a run-scoring single in the sixth inning to knot the game at 1-1 and to tally his 50th RBI of the season. Though he's been limited to only 287 plate appearances, Jimenez has been extremely productive when in the lineup as illustrated by a .384 wOBA and 154 wRC+. He's been particularly productive across his last 12 starts, racking up five home runs, 17 RBI and 12 runs scored.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Tuesday's 9-8 victory over the Pirates.

Stanton capped off a thrilling ninth-inning comeback with a walkoff grand slam. Aaron Judge led off the inning with a solo shot to push the game to 8-5, and the next three batters loaded the bases for Stanton, who crushed a home run 410 feet to left field to win the game. The home run, Stanton's 27th on the season, came after he was hitless in his previous 16 at-bats with nine strikeouts.

Ford went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Ford has endured a difficult September, hitting just .208 (40-for-48) even after Tuesday's three-hit game. This was his third multi-hit effort of the month. The 30-year-old first baseman is up to a .214/.318/.321 slash line with three home runs, 10 RBI, eight runs scored and three doubles through 45 contests, 23 of which have come with the Angels. Despite the poor hitting of late, he's still receiving more playing time than Matt Thaiss at first base.
