Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's extra-inning win over the Yankees.

The star first baseman produced the game's first run when he took Cam Schlittler deep in the seventh inning. Olson is up to 34 homers on the season, tied for third in the majors with the Rockies' Hunter Goodman and just one back of the Phillies' Kyle Schwarber and the Astros' Yordan Alvarez, and seven of them have come in his last 12 games -- a stretch in which the Atlanta slugger boasts a .289/.347/.822 slash line with nine RBI and 11 runs.

Henderson (elbow) tossed 4.2 hitless innings Sunday in his 2026 debut at Triple-A Memphis after being reinstated from the 60-day injured list.

Henderson was effectively wild, managing to hold Nashville off the scoreboard despite walking four and not recording a strikeout. The left-hander entered the Memphis rotation following four rehab starts, as he missed the first three months of the season with a flexor strain. Henderson doesn't have wipeout stuff but has been highly effective thus far in the minors, having posted a 2.59 ERA and 134:51 K:BB over 132 innings covering 25 starts with Double-A Springfield in 2025.

Steer (wrist) is scheduled to have a splint removed from his right wrist Monday, MLB.com reports.

Once the split is gone, Steer can begin mobility exercises with his hand and wrist. He'll be re-evaluated soon after to determine where the wrist is at in the healing process. Steer could rejoin the team in September.

Lawlar (hamstring) will continue to rehab at Double-A Amarillo, MLB.com reports.

There was thought that Lawlar's rehab assignment could move to Triple-A Reno, but the organization will keep him at Amarillo for now. He's appearaed in five rehab games for the Sod Poodles, going 3-for-19 with nine strikeouts, two steals and two runs scored.

Burleson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Rockies.

Burleson led off the fifth inning by jumping on the first pitch he saw from Michael Lorenzen for his 19th home run of the season, surpassing his total from a season ago. The outfielder has now gone deep four times through eight August games, though his previous three all came during his offensive explosion against the Yankees on August 3. Burleson continues to put together a strong campaign, slashing .283/.349/.478 with 28 doubles, one triple, 78 RBI, 63 runs scored and three stolen bases across 117 games.

Goodman went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Cardinals.

Goodman opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before coming through again in the eighth, taking George Soriano deep for a game-tying solo homer. Goodman has continued to provide plenty of power since the All-Star break, batting .254 with seven home runs and 18 RBI across 18 games. Through 108 contests this season, he's batting .254, while his 34 homers trail only Yordan Alvarez and Kyle Schwarber (35) for the MLB lead.

Gilbert went 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI in Sunday's 3-1, extra-inning loss to the Tigers.

Gilbert tripled off Troy Melton in his first plate appearance for his third three-bagger of the season before adding an RBI single in the seventh inning. The RBI snapped a 41-plate-appearance drought without driving in a run, though Gilbert remained productive during that stretch with a .410 OBP. Through 94 games this season, he's batting .240 with a .680 OPS.

Webb did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Tigers, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out two over eight innings.

Webb allowed just one hit through his first five innings before Detroit opened the sixth with back-to-back singles, eventually leading to his lone run allowed. Despite the excellent outing, San Francisco's offense managed only one run in the extra-inning loss. Webb has been an absolute workhorse since the beginning of June, completing at least six innings in 11 of his 12 starts, including four outings of eight innings. His swing-and-miss ability remains modest with a 10 percent swinging-strike rate, but a groundball rate north of 50 percent continues to make him a strong contributor in the ratio categories.

Hays went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Astros.

Hays signed with the Padres earlier Sunday. He didn't get the start, but he delivered a two-run shot while pinch hitting for Gavin Sheets in the eighth inning. Hays is likely to fill a short-side platoon role in the outfield during his time with the Padres. He is batting .250 with a .676 OPS, two homers, nine RBI, four runs scored, one double and no stolen bases over 13 games between the Padres and the White Sox this season, and he had a .779 OPS over 20 games with Triple-A Charlotte before the White Sox released him.

Sheets went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Astros.

Sheets hadn't homered since June 30 versus the Cubs. During the 31-game power drought, he hit just .155 (13-for-84) with two doubles, five RBI and a 16:14 BB:K. The 30-year-old's slump, combined with the signing of Austin Hays on Sunday, could lead to Sheets losing some playing time, though he's still in the mix at first base, designated hitter and left field. Overall, Sheets is batting .214 with a .713 OPS, 15 homers, 44 RBI, 44 runs scored, 15 doubles and four stolen bases over 110 contests.
