  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Could return this weekend

    Padres manager Mike Shildt said Tuesday that Bogaerts (foot) took part in workouts at the team's facility in Arizona over the previous two days and could return from the 10-day injured list for this weekend's series in Chicago versus the White Sox, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Bogaerts was involved in a full range of baseball activities, as he did some running, fielded grounders at shortstop and hit against live pitching. Completing a running progression appears to be the final hurdle that Bogaerts will need to clear before being activated, with Shildt noting that the 32-year-old is sprinting at about 80-to-85 percent intensity at this point. Bogaerts has been on the IL since Aug. 29 due to a non-displaced fracture in his left foot.

  • Taylor Walls 3B | TB

    Rays' Taylor Walls: Shifts to 60-day IL

    The Rays transferred Walls (sports hernia) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    Manager Kevin Cash had already announced earlier this month that Walls would be shut down for the season after requiring sports hernia surgery, so the infielder's move to the 60-day IL was merely a formality. The transaction opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Cole Wilcox, who was called up from Triple-A Durham.

  • Leo De Vries SS | ATH

    Athletics' Leo De Vries: On fire at Double-A

    De Vries went 2-for-4 with a home run in Tuesday's playoff game for Double-A Midland against Amarillo.

    He hit an opposite-field home run in his first career playoff at-bat Tuesday and has six homers in his last nine games for the RockHounds. De Vries, one of the best prospects to get traded at the trade deadline in recent memory, slashed .281/.359/.551 with five home runs, two steals, a 144 wRC+ and a 19.4 percent strikeout rate in 21 regular-season games at Double-A as an 18-year-old. The uber-talented switch hitter appears to be on the fast track to the big leagues and figures to be Jacob Wilson's double-play partner by late 2026 or early 2027.

  • Denzer Guzman SS | LAA

    Angels' Denzer Guzman: Clubs first MLB homer

    Guzman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-2 loss against the Brewers.

    Guzman belted his first career homer Tuesday, driving a Freddy Peralta pitch to straightaway center field in the fifth inning to get the Angels on the board. The 21-year-old has opened his big-league career 3-for-9 across three games and should continue to see steady opportunities down the stretch with Zach Neto (hand) sidelined.

  • Twins' Ryan Fitzgerald: Goes deep in loss

    Fitzgerald went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's loss against the Yankees.

    Fitzgerald launched his third career homer in Tuesday's loss, turning on a cutter in a lefty-lefty battle against Ryan Yarbrough. Though his playing time has been sporadic, the infielder has made the most of recent opportunities, going 5-for-14 with two long balls and six RBI so far in September.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Red Sox's Trevor Story: Reaches 30 steals

    Story went 3-for-4 and stole two bases in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Athletics.

    Story stole bags after singling in the first and third innings. The two thefts upped his season total to a career-high 30. More impressive, no backstop has been able to catch him stealing yet in 2025. This marks the fourth time since the expansion era began in 1961 that a player has started a season with 30 straight successful attempts.

  • Gabriel Arias SS | CLE

    Guardians' Gabriel Arias: Plays role in win

    Arias went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 7-5 extra-inning win over the Tigers.

    Arias swatted a solo home run in the fourth inning and then singled in the final run as part of the team's four-run 10th inning. The homer was his career-high 11th to along with 50 RBI. Since returning from a wrist injury last week, Arias is 4-for-15 with a double, a homer, two RBI, one steal and two runs scored over four contests.

  • Jeremy Pena SS | HOU

    Astros' Jeremy Pena: Another big performance

    Pena went 3-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored Tuesday against the Rangers.

    Pena set the table for Houston's offense, leading off both the first and third innings with singles before coming around to score. He extended his hitting streak to five games and has at least one hit in 21 of his last 26 games, during which he's recorded 12 RBI and 13 runs scored while hitting .281. Pena has performed particularly well to start the Astros' series against Texas, tallying five hits with an RBI and five runs scored in the last two games.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Three knocks in win

    Henderson went 3-for-5 with a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's win against the White Sox.

    Henderson delivered RBI singles in the third and fifth innings for his first multi-RBI game since Aug. 18. Over his previous 24 games, he had driven in just five runs while producing a .592 OPS. Henderson is still in a power slump and his homerless drought stands at 20 games. He's slashing .272/.348/.440 with 64 RBI and 82 runs scored this season through 604 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Goes deep in win

    Lindor went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, two runs scored and a walk in Tuesday's win against the Padres.

    Lindor singled and scored a run in the first inning before ripping a home run in the second. It was his 27th long ball of the year and snapped a 14-game homerless drought. Lindor has gone deep just twice over his last 24 contests but still has a shot at his third straight 30-homer campaign. He's now slashing .265/.340/.454 with 60 extra-base hits and 105 runs scored through 149 games.
