Camargo was added to the Braves' 40-man roster Friday.

2016 marked Camargo's first taste of Double-A, and he adjusted to the new level well by smashing 26 doubles and striking out just 16.7 percent of the time. The 22-year-old doesn't possess huge power, but his strong contact abilities paired with his defensive versatility across the infield bode well for his chances to move up the organizational ranks now that he's safe from the Rule 5 draft.

Herrera signed a minor league contract with the Rockies on Friday.

He spent the entire season at Double-A Hartford, batting .292/.374/.379 with 36 steals while playing exclusively in the outfield corners. Herrera broke into professional baseball as a shortstop but his days of playing the infield seem to be over. While he's displayed a good approach at the plate, his bat does not profile especially well in the corners at the major league level.

Castro was outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.

Castro has seen a sizable amount of major league playing time over the past couple years, but he hasn't taken advantage of it, as displayed by his .217 batting average in the big leagues. The 23-year-old will head back to the minors to find his stroke and act as organizational infield depth.

Baez went 2-for-3 with a home run in a victory over the Giants in Game 1 of the NLDS on Friday.

Only one run was scored in the game, and it came on Baez's home run in the bottom of the eighth. He slashed a modest .273/.314/.423 in 421 at-bats this year, but for one day at least he's the most famous man in Chicago.

Joe Jordan, the Phillies' director of player development, said Crawford has had a smooth recovery from knee surgery and will have a normal offseason, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.

Crawford underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in September to remove a loose body from his left knee. He will be ready for spring training, where he is expected to get a chance to compete for a starting job.

Gordon went 2-for-3 and stole his 30th base of the season in Sunday's loss to the Nationals.

An 80-game PED suspension hurt his overall numbers, but Gordon still finishes the regular season with some momentum, hitting .440 (11-for-25) over his last six games with seven steals. If he can avoid another infraction, he should once again compete for the MLB stolen base crown in 2017.

Baez is not in the lineup for the team's regular-season finale against the Reds.

The Cubs wanted to get Jorge Soler back in action in left field Sunday, resulting in Kris Bryant moving to third base. The corresponding moves relegate Baez to a bench spot, but he should still contribute to the team's postseason efforts.

Diaz went 2-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 4-3 victory over the Pirates.

The rookie standout continues to wield a hot bat, with Saturday's production representing his third straight game with a hit and second multi-hit effort over that span. Diaz slumped overall in September but has turned in a 2016 campaign that exceeded expectations, parlaying Jhonny Peralta's spring-training thumb injury into an opportunity that has led to a stellar .303/.371/.515 line over 400 at-bats.

Turner went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run, two runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

The fifth-inning blast, his 13th home run in just 72 big-league games this season, proved to be the difference. Despite the late call-up, Turner has put himself firmly in the conversation for NL Rookie of the Year with a .342/.367/.569 slash line, 53 runs scored and 32 steals.

Gordon is not in Saturday's lineup against the Nationals, MLB.com's Joe Frisaro reports.

Gordon, along with several other Marlins regulars, is out of the lineup as the Marlins give some reserves the opportunity to take the field as they play out the string. Derek Dietrich will start at second base and lead off against righty Tanner Roark.
