The Mariners placed Miller on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a blister on his right index finger.

In his last appearance Monday against the Astros, Miller picked up his final win of the season as he allowed two hits and two walks while striking out five over seven scoreless innings. The 26-year-old right-hander ended the year strong with four quality starts in a row, and in 12 games after the All-Star break, he posted a 1.89 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 73:16 K:BB over 71.1 innings. Miller will finish the 2024 regular season with a 12-8 record over 31 starts with a 2.94 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 171:45 K:BB across 180.1 innings. Emerson Hancock was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move, and he will start Saturday against the Athletics.

Manager Joe Espada said Saturday that Alvarez (knee) could resume baseball activities Sunday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

The skipper didn't specify what exactly Alvarez will be doing, but the fact Alvarez is nearing a return to activity is a good sign that his sprained knee is trending in the right direction. Once the 27-year-old slugger is able to test out his knee, the team may have a better idea of whether he'll be ready for the start of the AL Wild Card Series.

The Mariners recalled Hancock from Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday.

Hancock has been recalled ahead of his start Saturday against the Athletics. He made his last start with the Mariners on Sept. 21 against the Rangers, when he allowed two runs on five hits while striking out three across five innings. Across 11 major-league outings this season, Hancock has a 4-4 record with a 4.72 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 36:15 K:BB across 55.1 innings.

Caminero went 3-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

Caminero gave the Rays the lead with a two-run homer in the third inning off Kutter Crawford, his sixth home run of the season. The 21-year-old now has three home runs over his last 10 games. Caminero has been playing regularly since getting his call-up in August, and he's now slashing .255/.306/.435 with 18 RBI in 42 games.

Casas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-2 loss against the Rays.

Casas took Shane Baz deep for the second time this season with his first-inning blast that went to the opposite field. It was Casas' fifth home run this month, and all have come over his last 11 games, with him adding 11 RBI over that span as well. The 24-year-old is hitting .240/.339/.466 with 13 home runs, 31 RBI and 28 runs scored over 62 games this season.

Gelof isn't in Oakland's lineup for Saturday's game against the Mariners.

Gelof went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts and notched his 25th stolen base during Friday's contest, and he'll now give way to Max Schuemann at second base while Tyler Nevin enters the lineup to fill the opening at third.

Pham isn't in Kansas City's lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

The Royals clinched a playoff berth Friday, so the team will sit many of their usual starters Saturday -- including Pham. His absence will put Salvador Perez into the DH role while Freddy Fermin catches for Seth Lugo.

Isbel isn't in Kansas City's lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Isbel will join many of the Royals' starters in getting a day off Saturday after the team clinched a postseason berth Friday. Dairon Blanco will get a chance to start in center field while Isbel rests.

Witt isn't in the Royals' lineup Saturday against Atlanta.

After starting the first 160 games of the season, Witt will get a chance to rest Saturday now that the Royals have officially punched their ticket to the postseason. Maikel Garcia will shift to shortstop in Witt's stead, allowing Paul DeJong to pick up a start at the hot corner.

Massey isn't in the Royals' lineup Saturday versus Atlanta.

The Royals will give Massey a day to rest Saturday after going 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles during Friday's loss. Adam Frazier will move to second base, allowing Robbie Grossman to start in right field and bat sixth.
