Lindor went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks and two total runs scored in Sunday's 13-6 win over Washington.

The shortstop sparked a six-run ninth inning for the Mets with his solo shot, which was his 13th homer of the year and his second in as many days after he went yard in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader. Lindor hadn't homered since July 11 before rediscovering his power this weekend. The 27-year-old is slashing just .225/.316/.382 with 44 RBI, 56 runs scored and 10 stolen bases through 414 plate appearances overall.

Baez went 4-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, a stolen base and three runs scored in Sunday's 13-6 win over Washington.

The infielder did a little of everything in this contest, including an RBI single in the first inning and a solo shot in the third. Baez finished the weekend series versus Washington 7-for-14 with two home runs, three RBI and six runs scored in four contests (three starts). He's slashing .251/.297/.494 with 28 homers, 76 RBI, 65 runs scored and 14 stolen bases through 450 plate appearances overall.

Rojas was removed from Sunday's loss to the Phillies with left trapezius soreness, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Rojas went 0-for-4 with a strikeout prior to being replaced in the field during the ninth inning. The severity of the injury remains unclear, but the 32-year-old will have Monday's scheduled off day to aid in his recovery before missing any time.

Ahmed is not in the lineup Sunday versus Seattle.

Ahmed went 1-for-4 with a double during Saturday's contest and will receive a day off after starting the past nine games. Josh Rojas will take over at shortstop while Andrew Young starts at the keystone.

Adames was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a strained left quadriceps.

Adames aggravated the quadriceps injury during Saturday's game against the Cardinals after starting the contest 3-for-3, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the next 10 days. It's unclear how long the 26-year-old is expected to be sidelined, but the Brewers are figure to be cautious with his return since a potential playoff run is on the horizon, especially since he already missed some time after originally suffering the injury in late August.

Lindor went 3-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and four RBI in an 11-9 win over the Nationals during the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

The shortstop bailed the Mets out after they squandered a 9-0 lead in the matinee, taking Kyle Finnegan deep for a game-winning two-run shot in the top of the ninth inning. Lindor's long ball was his 12th of the year and first since July 11, although he missed much of the intervening time with an oblique strain, and since returning to action he's slashing just .205/.200/.385 through 11 games.

Baez went 2-for-5 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored during an 11-9 win over the Nationals in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader.

The infielder didn't start the nightcap but went 0-for-1 as a pinch hitter. Baez took Erick Fedde deep in the second inning to help the Mets build a 7-0 lead through three frames, but the New York bullpen squandered that cushion and the matinee wound up going to extra innings. Baez is batting .250 (11-for-44) with three of his 27 homers on the season in 12 games since returning from a back injury.

Rojas went 3-for-4 with a double, a run and an RBI in Saturday's 3-2 win over Philadelphia.

Rojas followed his 3-for-3 effort Friday with another three hits Saturday, and he has collected eight hits and five RBI over his past 11 at-bats overall. The scorching stretch has pushed his season slash line to .279/.338/.417.

Seager went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 6-1 triumph over San Francisco.

Seager brought a run home with his first-inning sacrifice fly and later provided an insurance run with a solo blast in the ninth. After hitting four home runs in April, Seager now has another four since Aug. 10 to give him eight on the season. He is slashing an excellent .282/.372/.466 despite the lack of power, part of which can be attributed to injuries limiting him to only 260 at-bats this season.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a strikeout in a 6-1 victory over the Giants on Saturday.

Turner ignited a three-run first inning with a leadoff home run against San Francisco starter Jay Jackson but failed to produce in his other three at-bats. He's now strung together an 11-game hitting streak, though he has a single hit in all but one of those contests and is batting 13-for-43 with two doubles and long balls apiece during the streak.
