Rojas went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 7-6 win over the Cardinals.

Rojas logged his first multi-hit effort of August, and he's gone 9-for-29 (.310) over eight games since he returned from a forearm injury. The shortstop's solid batting has helped him fend off Nick Ahmed for playing time at shortstop. Rojas is up to a .276/.318/.403 slash line, three home runs, 25 RBI, 27 runs scored and seven steals through 237 plate appearances this season. With Tommy Edman (wrist) expected to debut Monday, Rojas will need to keep hitting well to maintain his playing time, though Edman is also an option to enter the mix in center field.

Betts went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Friday's 7-6 win over the Cardinals.

Betts has logged multiple hits in each of his four starts since he returned from a hand injury. Over his last five games, he's gone 8-for-20 (.400) with two homers and four RBI. Betts' power was down even before the injury, but he's still slugging .505 over 77 contests this season. He's added a .310 batting average, 12 homers, 44 RBI, 54 runs scored and 10 stolen bases.

Cruz was removed from Friday's game against the Mariners due to left ankle discomfort.

Cruz made a big turn toward third base after lining a two-RBI double into center field during the seventh inning, and he pivoted awkwardly on his ankle while turning back to second. The Pirates' medical staff is still in the process of examining his ankle, and the 25-year-old's status for Saturday's game is uncertain.

McLain (shoulder/rib) has been cleared to resume baseball work, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Mclain's recovery from offseason surgery on his left shoulder was derailed in early August when he sustained a stress reaction in his rib cage. He was temporarily shut down from baseball activities and a rehab assignment scheduled to begin Aug. 12 was cancelled. However, he's back to swinging a bat and participating in other drills. The Reds haven't announced a new date for McLain to start his minor-league rehab assignment, and he shouldn't be expected back until September.

Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with an RBI and two stolen bases Thursday in a 6-0 win against Atlanta.

Fitzgerald began the Giants' half of the first inning with a single, which he followed with a steal of second and third base. The rookie then added a sacrifice fly in the second frame. Fitzgerald has been an incredible pickup for fantasy managers astute enough to claim him off the waiver wire -- through 61 games, he's slashing .311/.365/.617 with 14 homers, 27 RBI, 37 runs and 14 stolen bases. He isn't showing any signs of slowing down, batting .333 (20-for-60) with five home runs and seven thefts through 14 games in August.

Schmitt went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 6-0 win against Atlanta.

Schmitt increased San Francisco's lead from 2-0 to 4-0 with his two-run blast in the sixth inning. He finished the game with three hits -- as many as he had tallied over his previous 12 games and 31 at-bats combined. Schmitt's five homers through 80 plate appearances this year are as many as he hit over 277 plate appearances in 2023, but he's also carrying a poor .208/.225/.442 slash line on the season.

Wisely is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

With southpaw Max Fried toeing the rubber for Atlanta, the lefty-hitting Wisely will exit the starting nine. Platoon mate Casey Schmitt will check in for Wisely at the keystone.

Fitzgerald went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 13-2 loss to Atlanta.

Fitzgerald continues to show no signs of slowing down at the plate -- he's 19-for-56 (.339) with five homers and four doubles over 13 games in August. His blast Wednesday had little impact on the game, as Atlanta had already established a 5-0 lead in the top of the first inning before he responded. Overall, Fitzgerald has 14 homers, 12 stolen bases, 26 RBI, 37 runs scored and a .313/.369/.626 slash line through 195 plate appearances.

Betts is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Milwaukee, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Betts started the first three games of the series -- his first three contests back from from the injured list -- but will take a seat for Thursday's afternoon finale. Jason Heyward will patrol right field for the Dodgers and Teoscar Hernandez will move up to the second spot in the batting order.

Lindor went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and two total run scored in Wednesday's 9-1 win over the Athletics.

Lindor logged multiple hits for the fourth game in a row and the sixth time during his active eight-game hitting streak. He also snapped a power drought with his first homer since July 25. The star shortstop is up to a .263/.336/.465 slash line, 23 homers, 69 RBI, 79 runs scored, 24 stolen bases and 30 doubles across 120 contests, providing well-rounded production out of the leadoff spot.
