Seager went 3-for-4 with a double and two solo home runs in an 8-3 triumph over San Diego on Thursday.

Seager went back-to-back with Mookie Betts to lead off the home half of the first inning, doubled in the third and launched another homer in the seventh for his third three-hit game this month. The shortstop has been raking of late, going 14-for-29 with three doubles, a triple and four home runs over his past seven games and posted a whopping 1.153 OPS in 26 September contests.

Lindor went 1-for-4 with a grand slam and a walk in Thursday's 12-3 victory over Miami.

Lindor went deep during a six-run eighth inning for the Mets, connecting off Luis Madero to break things open at 10-3. It was Lindor's 20th home run of the season, and his third in the last five games. He's driven in eight runs during that stretch and is slashed a stellar .267/.359/.574 in the month of September.

Perdomo started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to San Francisco.

Perdomo, who was called up Sunday, made his second start in three games while serving as a pinch hitter in the other. He's hit in all three contests, going 4-for-6 with a double and a walk. He and Josh Rojas are sharing shortstop until the end of the season with Nick Ahmed (shoulder) done for the year. Looking ahead to 2022, the 31-year-old Ahmed still has two years left on his deal and the versatile Rojas has earned an everyday spot somewhere. It looks like Perdomo will build off the success he achieved in August at Double-A Amarillo while beginning 2022 at Triple-A Reno.

Seager went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer, two doubles, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 11-9 win over the Padres.

Seager doubled his first time up and later scored on a base hit from Trea Turner as part of a four-run opening frame. He later doubled again in the fifth, this time driving home a run before eventually delivering a game-deciding two-run blast in the eighth to put the Dodgers up 11-9. The 27-year-old now has three home runs and five RBI over his last three games and has put together eight multi-hit performances this month. Seager has not appeared to miss a step despite missing two and a half months over the summer with a broken hand. Since returning to the big club July 30, he's slashing .314/.404/.539 with nine homers, 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and 29:35 BB:K over 54 games.

Story went 4-for-4 with a walk and three runs scored in Wednesday's 10-5 win over Washington.

The shortstop appears set to end the year on a hot run, as he's gone 7-for-11 with three walks, a home run and a double in his last three games. Story's hits Wednesday were all singles, but the four-hit effort lifted his slash line to .253/.331/.477 through 586 plate appearances. He's added 24 home runs, 19 stolen bases, 74 RBI and 88 runs scored as one of Colorado's best hitters even in a somewhat disappointing season by his standards.

Swanson went 3-for-4 and drove in a pair of runs during Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Phillies.

Swanson enjoyed his first three-hit performance since mid-August by producing a trio of singles, the last of which brought home a pair of runs in the seventh inning. Swanson has endured a rough month of September, hitting just .171 with four extra-base hits, but he's currently working on a five-game on-base streak.

Edman isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Milwaukee, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Edman has gone 2-for-18 with two strikeouts across the last four games, and he'll get his first day off in over a month after the Cardinals clinched a postseason spot Tuesday. Jose Rondon will start at the keystone and bat seventh.

Adames (quadriceps) is starting Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.

Adames was removed from Tuesday's lineup as a precautionary measure due to left quadriceps discomfort, but he'll be back in the lineup a day later. The 26-year-old will start at shortstop and bat second.

Lindor went a combined 2-for-7 with a home run, a walk and three RBI between both ends of Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Marlins.

Lindor led the charge for the Mets in the opening contest, connecting on his second home run in as many games when he took lefty reliever Steven Okert deep in the sixth inning. Though his first season in Queens hasn't come close to living up to expectations, Lindor is at least closing the campaign with the kind of production the Mets banked on when they handed him a $341 million contract in April. Through 25 September games, Lindor is slashing .258/.352/.559 with eight home runs and 21 RBI.

Turner went 3-for-5 with a double, run, RBI, strikeout and stolen base in a 2-1 triumph over San Diego on Tuesday.

Turner opened the scoring with a first-inning double before stealing third base, singled and scored in the third and singled in the sixth to record his third straight multi-hit performance. A 14-game hitting streak has been especially fruitful over Turner's last five games, with the 28-year-old going 11-for-22 with three doubles and three homers.
