Martinez is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Martinez is in the midst of a career-worst stretch at the plate, having gone 0-for-his-last-31, which is also the longest slump by a Mets hitter this season. He'll be on the bench for a second straight game, and Saturday's absence came against an opposing lefty starter. The 37-year-old may have played his way out of the regular lineup.

Alvarez left Sunday's game against the Angels with an apparent right leg injury, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Alvarez doubled in the bottom of the third inning, but he came up favoring his right leg after sliding into the second-base bag. He left the game after a visit from the trainer, and with Houston thinking big picture, the team could opt to rest the slugger for a game or two even if this turns out to be minor.

Manzardo is not in Sunday's lineup against the Cardinals.

The lefty-hitting designated hitter will head to the bench, even with righty Andre Pallante on the hill for St. Louis. Manzardo went 0-for-5 with a walk and two strikeouts in the first two games of the series. Jose Ramirez is starting at DH while Angel Martinez gets the nod at third base.

Ohtani went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run and a stolen base Saturday in a loss to Colorado.

Ohtani became the majors' first 50-50 player Thursday, and he seems intent not to stop there. He has stolen at least one base in each of his past four contests and is up to 53 steals on the campaign, second-most in the majors behind Elly De La Cruz. Ohtani has racked up 30 stolen bases since he was last caught stealing July 22 against San Francisco (54 games ago), and he's added 22 homers along with 52 RBI and 48 runs during that span.

Stanton went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, an additional run and a walk in Saturday's 10-0 win against Oakland.

Stanton came into Saturday having gone 12 games without a long ball and batting .122 with a 36.2 percent strikeout rate over that stretch. The veteran slugger shook the slump with a 441-foot, three-run blast in the third inning and reached two other times in the rout, notching his first multi-hit game since Sept. 1. Stanton is up to 26 home runs and 67 RBI on the season with a .234/.297/.476 slash line over 435 plate appearances.

Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Mets.

He kicked off the afternoon by taking Sean Manaea deep, giving Schwarber his 36th homer of the season and his 15th leadoff homer -- extending the major-league record he set Sept. 10. The veteran slugger is one RBI shy of his second straight 100-RBI campaign, and with seven games left on the Phillies' schedule, he still has an outside shot at his third straight 40-homer season.

Alvarez went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double and two total runs in Saturday's 10-4 win against the Angels.

Alvarez's most productive hit was a solo shot to center field in the seventh inning. That was his 35th long ball of the season, 10th most in the majors. The four-hit performance snapped an uncharacteristic cold streak for Alvarez, who came into Saturday having gone 2-for-22 over his previous six games.

Pederson went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 5-0 win against Milwaukee.

Pederson got the scoring started for Arizona in the first inning, blasting a two-run shot to center field. The long ball and RBI were his first since he hit a solo home run against Texas on Sept. 10. Pederson is up to 23 homers and 63 RBI on the season, with all but 40 of his 427 plate appearances coming against right-handed pitching.

Burleson isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Saturday's game against the Guardians.

Burleson and his .509 OPS against left-handed pitchers will remain in the dugout to begin Saturday's contest while Cleveland sends Matthew Boyd to the hill. Luken Baker will serve as the Cards' designated hitter and bat second.

Chaparro is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

Chaparro is 3-for-32 (.094) in his last nine games and will get the day off Saturday to clear his head. Luis Garcia will fill in at DH while Jose Tena plays the keystone.
