Bride went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Twins.

Bride has gone yard three times over his last nine games, batting .324 (11-for-34) in that span. The 28-year-old is up to nine homers this season, all of which he's hit since July 31 since becoming a steady part of the Marlins' lineup. He's added a solid .264/.349/.429 slash line, 32 RBI, 27 runs scored and eight doubles across 66 contests.

Feltner was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cardinals due to cramping in his right arm, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Feltner pitched six-plus innings before exiting the game, giving up two earned runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six batters. Manager Bud Black said he didn't want to risk Feltner pitching while his arm was bothering him, which explains the decision to pull the right-hander after he threw just one pitch in the seventh. The team doesn't believe Feltner's injury to be anything too serious, and he's still expected to make his next scheduled start in Sunday's season finale versus the Dodgers.

Tinoco struck out one without allowing a baserunner over 1.2 innings to earn the save in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Twins.

Anthony Bender left two on with one out in the eighth inning, but Tinoco avoided trouble in that frame. Tinoco also tossed a perfect ninth and has now gone 3.2 innings without allowing a baserunner. He's earned three saves over his last five appearances, taking over the closing role since Calvin Faucher (shoulder) landed on the injured list. Tinoco has a 1.55 ERA, 0.59 WHIP and 29:4 K:BB over 25 innings with the Marlins, an improvement on his 3.23 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 41:11 K:BB through 39 innings for the year, which includes time with the Rangers and the Cubs.

Weathers (4-6) allowed a run on six hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings to earn the win over the Twins on Tuesday.

Weathers did better in his second start back from a finger injury. The Marlins gave him a four-run lead in the second inning, and he only gave one run back on Royce Lewis' RBI single in the third. Weathers has generally pitched well this year, allowing two runs or fewer in seven of his 15 starts. He's at a 3.81 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 74:22 K:BB across 80.1 innings. Weathers is tentatively projected to make one more start at Toronto this weekend.

Amaya went 2-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Phillies.

After sitting out Monday's game, Amaya returned to the lineup and rattled off his second straight two-hit effort dating back to Sunday. The catcher has a .653 OPS so far this season, which is a step back from last year's .688 mark. Amaya has yet to really take off offensively at the MLB level, though he stands a decent chance of once again being Chicago's starting catcher in 2025, at least to start the season.

Hoerner went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Phillies.

Hoerner continued his hot streak, as he's now batting .421 over his last 10 games with seven runs scored. The speedy infielder likely won't match last season's 43 stolen bases, as he has 30 steals with just four games remaining, but it's still been a solid campaign. Hoerner isn't a huge power threat, though his ability to get on base and swipe a bag gives him plenty of fantasy upside.

Myers didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Pirates, allowing two runs on six hits over four innings. He struck out four.

Myers has hit a bit of a snag down the stretch, allowing seven runs over 14 innings in his last three outings. Still, it's been an impressive campaign overall for the rookie right-hander -- Myers is 8-6 with a 3.09 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 122:36 K:BB across 134 innings. He'll look to head into the playoffs on a high note in his final regular-season outing, currently scheduled for this weekend at home against the Mets.

Bellinger went 3-for-5 with a triple, a run scored and four RBI in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Phillies.

Bellinger recorded his first four-RBI game of the year as he spurred Chicago's offensive attack. The former NL MVP snapped a three-game, 0-for-12 hitless streak with the big effort. For the season, Bellinger is now batting .267 with a .757 OPS and 77 RBI across 127 games.

Parker did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's extra-innings loss to Kansas City, pitching six scoreless innings while allowing five hits and two walks. He struck out five.

The rookie left-hander entered this outing with an unsightly 5.59 ERA in 19.1 September frames and stymied the ice-cold Royals over his 91 pitches. Although he's struggled to contain lineups, Parker has been a consistent source of strikeouts, as he notched his eighth start out of his last nine with five or more Ks. Overall, the 24-year-old now sports a 4.29 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 133:43 K:BB across 151 innings this season. Parker is not currently scheduled to make another start this season but may appear out of the bullpen this weekend.

Manager Carlos Mendoza said after Tuesday's loss to Atlanta that Lindor (back) "could be in play" for Wednesday's game, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Lindor didn't play in Tuesday's contest, but he finished the game in the on-deck circle and would have pinch hit in the ninth inning if the Mets had put anybody on base. Mendoza's willingness to use Lindor in a late-game situation is a good sign that the infielder has recovered from his lingering back issue after missing eight consecutive games, and he seems to have a good chance of ending the streak Wednesday.
