Volpe went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Friday's 4-2 extra-inning win over the Athletics.

Volpe had gone just 5-for-44 (.114) while striking out 15 times over a 13-game span between multi-hit efforts. Two of his singles Friday plated a run, including an insurance run in the 10th inning. His September slump has taken a toll on his overall numbers, which are now at a .248/.295/.369 slash line with 11 home runs, 57 RBI, 88 runs scored and 26 stolen bases through 152 contests. Still, he's not at risk of losing his near-everyday role at shortstop.

Rocchio is not in the lineup for Friday's game in St. Louis.

Rocchio had started each of the last eight contests, but he'll get a day off for the series opener. Daniel Schneemann will hold down shortstop for the Guardians.

Moore went 1-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in a win over the Yankees on Thursday.

Moore had his most active game offensively since Sept. 4 by getting on base three times, and he added his 30th steal of the campaign. Despite Thursday's busy night, Moore has had an unremarkable month thus far, hitting .250 with two extra-base hits, four RBI, four walks, two stolen bases and two runs across 29 plate appearances over 13 games in September.

Henderson went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Giants.

Henderson's steal was his fifth of September, giving him the first 20-steal season of his three-year career. The 23-year-old is hitting .338 (22-for-65) over 16 contests this month, with nine of his knocks going for extra bases. His rebound at the plate has coincided with him once again being atop the Orioles' lineup. Henderson is at a .282/.365/.537 slash line with 37 home runs, 87 RBI, 114 runs scored, 28 doubles and seven triples over a career-high 151 contests.

Caballero went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a 2-0 win against Boston on Thursday.

Caballero made the start at third base and recorded a single and a steal in the fourth inning. The theft was his third in his past two games and his 44th of the season. Among MLB players, only Elly De La Cruz, Shohei Ohtani and Brice Turang have more steals.

Rafaela is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest in Tampa Bay, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Rafaela is getting a breather after going 1-for-16 with seven strikeouts across his last five games. Nick Sogard will cover second base and bat ninth for the Red Sox.

Jimenez will start at second base and bat seventh in Thursday's game against the Rangers.

Jimenez will pick up his fourth consecutive start at the keystone, despite going 1-for-9 with three strikeouts over the previous three contests. Even though Jimenez has produced a weak .224/.332/.365 slash line over 184 plate appearances with the big club this season, the Blue Jays could nonetheless stick with him as their primary second baseman the rest of the way with Will Wagner (knee) done for the season and with Davis Schneider having taken on more playing time in left field of late.

Neto went 0-for-1 with a walk, a run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the White Sox.

Neto didn't start the contest but entered as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and drew a walk. He proceeded to steal second base, then scored the game-tying run on a Taylor Ward single. The theft was Neto's 30th of the campaign, making him one of seven major-leaguers so far this season to log 20 home runs and 30 stolen bases.

The Blue Jays placed Bichette on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a fractured right middle finger, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Bichette was scratched from the lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Rangers due to what the team initially referred to as a finger contusion. However, subsequent testing has revealed a fracture, which will end the shortstop's season. Injuries have limited Bichette to just 81 games in 2024, and he slashed a disappointing .225/.277/.322 with four home runs during that time. Ernie Clement and Leo Jimenez will handle shortstop for the Blue Jays down the stretch with Bichette out.

Lee is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.

The switch-hitting Lee had started in each of the Twins' last three matchups with right-handed pitchers, but he'll hit the bench for a second straight matchup with a lefty (Joey Cantillo). Though Carlos Correa looks poised to serve as the Twins' primary shortstop down the stretch following his recent activation from the injured list, Lee could factor into the mix for playing time at second base, where Minnesota has been rotating three players (Lee, Edouard Julien and Kyle Farmer) of late. Super-utility man Willi Castro is typically picking up starts out of the outfield but could settle in as the primary option at the keystone once outfielder Max Kepler (knee) returns from the injured list.
