Colson Montgomery SS | CHW
White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Smacks eighth homer
Montgomery went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Mariners.
All eight of those homers have come over his last 12 games dating back to July 22 versus the Rays. The infield prospect struggled a bit initially when he joined the major-league roster, but he's taken little time to find a groove. He's now batting .256 and slugging .567 with 24 RBI, 12 runs scored and no stolen bases across his first 26 contests. Montgomery has helped fill in for Chase Meidroth (thumb) at shortstop, but there should be room for Montgomery in the lineup on a near-everyday basis even when the White Sox have a fully healthy infield.

Willy Adames SS | SF
Giants' Willy Adames: Knocks 18th homer
Adames went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win against the Pirates.
Adames ripped a two-run shot in the fifth inning and added a single in the ninth. It was his 18th long ball of the year and his ninth in 29 games since the start of July. Tuesday was his first multi-hit performance since July 28; he went 3-for-25 (.120) in six games between those two contests. Adames is now slashing .232/.318/.412 with 38 extra-base hits and 61 RBI in 113 games.

Ha-seong Kim 2B | ATL
Rays' Ha-Seong Kim: Not starting Tuesday
Kim isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.
After going 3-for-14 with two walks in four games since his return from the injured list, Kim will grab a seat on the bench Tuesday while Taylor Walls starts at shortstop.

Chase Meidroth SS | CHW
White Sox's Chase Meidroth: Out again Tuesday
Meidroth (thumb) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Seattle.
Despite entering Sunday's contest as a defensive replacement, Meidroth seemingly still isn't quite ready to return to the starting nine after taking a pitch off his thumb last week. Josh Rojas will pick up another start at second base as a result while Brooks Baldwin covers third.

Javier Baez SS | DET
Tigers' Javier Baez: Starting after lineup adjustment
Baez is starting at shortstop and batting eighth Tuesday versus the Twins.
Gleyber Torres was slated to start at second base Tuesday, but he was scratched from the lineup due to left forearm tightness. Zach McKinstry is the starting second baseman after being originally set to start at short.

Jacob Wilson SS | ATH
Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Playing catch and running
Wilson (forearm) has been playing catch and running but has yet to be cleared for a hitting progression, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
Wilson hasn't played in nearly two weeks as he recovers from a fractured left forearm. There is no timetable for the rookie shortstop's return to action, but his status should become clearer once he's ready to ramp up his hitting. With Wilson sidelined, Darell Hernaiz has been handling shortstop for the Athletics of late.

Masyn Winn SS | STL
Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Pops homer Monday
Winn went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 3-2 win over the Dodgers.
Winn continues to hit well since the All-Star break -- he's gone 21-for-60 (.350) over his last 16 games. His homer Monday was his first since June 24 versus the Cubs. The shortstop has struggled to tap into power this year, logging eight homers and 24 doubles through 101 games after posting 15 long balls and 32 two-baggers over 150 games a year ago. Winn has added a .270/.325/.395 slash line, six stolen bases, 42 RBI and 60 runs scored in 2025.

Bo Bichette 3B | NYM
Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Enjoys huge game in Colorado
Bichette went 3-for-6 with two home runs and six RBI in a 15-1 rout of the Rockies on Monday.
Bichette quietly gave the Blue Jays an early lead with a run-scoring single in the first inning. His remaining two knocks were much louder -- he belted a 413-foot, two run homer in the third inning and added a 434-foot, three-run blast in the seventh. Bichette has been red-hot during the second half of the campaign, batting .385 with 21 RBI through 18 contests. However, Monday's outburst stood out in that it included two home runs; prior to the performance, he had gone deep just once over his previous 23 contests.

Ha-seong Kim 2B | ATL
Rays' Ha-Seong Kim: Reaches base twice
Kim went 1-for-3 with a walk Monday against the Angels.
Kim returned from the injured list Friday and has started all four games since. He's collected one hit in three of those contests, though none have gone for extra bases, and he's also provided no counting stats in that span.
