Caminero went 1-for-4 with a grand slam during Sunday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals.

Caminero broke Sunday's game open with his fifth-inning grand slam off Matt Svanson. It was the third baseman's second grand slam of his career. The long ball was his 10th of August, putting him in a three-way tie with Shea Langeliers and Vinnie Pasquantino for the most round-trippers in MLB this month. He's 21-for-78 (.269) with 20 RBI and 15 runs scored during that stretch.

Morel went 3-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 7-2 win over St. Louis.

The performance marked Morel's fourth three-hit game of the campaign, and his first since June 7. Since July 31, Morel is 12-for-39 (.308) with three home runs and 20 strikeouts. He's slashing .222/.284/.409 on the season and has been relegated to a short-side platoon role.

Rogers (7-2) picked up the win Sunday against Houston, allowing one run on five hits and three walks across seven innings. He struck out nine.

Rogers' stretch of outstanding play continued against Houston -- he allowed fewer than two runs for a sixth straight start. He's completed at least seven innings in five of those appearances, owning a 1.07 ERA and a 41:7 K:BB across 42 innings during that stretch. The left-hander has a 1.40 ERA in 83.1 innings this season. He hasn't posted a sub-4.00 ERA since the 2021 campaign. Rogers will look to keep rolling in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled to come in San Francisco.

Arrighetti (1-5) took the loss Sunday against Baltimore, allowing two runs on six hits and no walks across 5.2 innings. He struck out two.

Arrighetti was stuck with a fifth straight loss despite coming one out short of a quality start. The 25-year-old has been inconsistent since returning Aug. 6 from a four-month IL stint due to a right thumb fracture. He's yielded five runs in two of his four starts and has allowed two runs in each of his other two appearances. Since coming off the injured list, Arrighetti has logged a 6.52 ERA and a 15:10 K:BB across 19.1 innings. He's on track to face the Angels next weekend.

Akin picked up the save Sunday against the Astros, striking out three while not allowing a baserunner across 1.2 innings.

Akin has been part of a closing committee the Orioles have deployed recently, and he was called upon Sunday to secure Baltimore's victory. He had blown his last two save opportunities, so it wasn't a guarantee Akin would continue to be a ninth-inning option. He may have pitched his way into more save chances after retiring all five of the batters he faced Sunday. Akin has a 3.12 ERA, a 47:26 K:BB and three saves in 49 innings this season.

Henderson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two stolen bases during Sunday's 3-2 win over the Astros.

Henderson extended his hit streak to six games with Sunday's performance, and he stole a base for the second straight contest. His homer came in the first inning off Astros starter Spencer Arrighetti. During his hit streak, the shortstop is 9-for-26 (.346) with two home runs and a triple. Henderson is up to 16 long balls and 19 stolen bases in 2025.

Vazquez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Sunday's 3-2 win over the Astros.

The 25-year-old tagged John Rooney for a solo homer in the seventh inning, marking Vazquez's first career long ball. He's starting to hit his stride at the plate after starting the 2025 campaign with just one hit and six strikeouts in his first 17 at-bats. He's gone 4-for-15 (.267) with four runs scored and a stolen base in his last four starts.

Volpe said he expects to remain out of the lineup for Monday's series opener versus the Nationals before returning to the starting nine Tuesday, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

After going 0-for-3 and committing his 17th error of the season in Saturday's 12-1 loss to Boston, Volpe was held out of the lineup for Sunday's 7-2 win, though he entered the contest in top of the eighth inning as a defensive substitution at shortstop. The 24-year-old didn't see an at-bat in the contest, and he remains in the midst of a cold spell at the plate, batting .121 with five extra-base hits over his last 19 contests. Jose Caballero appears likely to get another start at Volpe's expense Monday, but the Yankees still seemingly view Volpe as their top option at shortstop, despite his ongoing struggles at the dish and on defense.

Grisham went 2-for-2 with two solo home runs and two walks in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

This was Grisham's second two-homer game in his last five contests. He's up to 25 long balls on the year, including seven over 21 games in August, a span in which he's batting .250 (20-for-80) while adding 10 RBI. The outfielder has also recorded a .247/.351/.469 slash line, 50 RBI, 65 runs scored and one stolen base over 113 contests this season. He continues to bat leadoff against right-handed pitchers.

Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a pair of two-run home runs in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

Chisholm opened the scoring in the second inning with a blast off Dustin May, and he provided the last runs of the game in the eighth, when he took Walker Buehler deep. Power has been on the rise for Chisholm lately, as he has now homered five times over his last 12 games, though he's batting a modest .256 (10-for-39) in that span. On the year, the infielder is at a .239/.333/.484 slash line through 98 contests. He's matched his career-high total in homers (24) in 49 fewer games than last year while adding 62 RBI, 59 runs scored and 22 stolen bases in 2025.
