Tucker went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Padres.

Tucker was ailing after fouling a ball off his right leg Saturday, but he ultimately missed just one start. The stolen base Wednesday would suggest that his leg isn't bothering him much now. The outfielder is up to 12 steals on the year, and he's hitting .237 with a .727 OPS, 17 home runs, 70 RBI, 88 runs scored, 23 doubles and four triples over 150 contests.

Yamamoto (14-9) allowed four runs (two earned) on five hits, a walk and a hit batsman while striking out four over six innings to take the loss versus the Padres on Wednesday.

Yamamoto earned a third straight quality start, though the Padres' pair of runs in the fifth inning were a product of his own throwing error. The right-hander has had few stumbles this season, pitching to a 2.53 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 182:42 K:BB over 185 innings through 28 starts. His regular season is done, so expect Yamamoto's next appearance to come in the NLDS.

Taylor went 0-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Dodgers.

Taylor manufactured a run on his own in the ninth inning after drawing a walk, with the two steals preceding Freddy Fermin's RBI single to pad the Padres' lead. Over his last 12 games, Taylor has gone 15-for-36 (.417) with five steals and four extra-base hits. The outfielder is now batting .333 with an .843 OPS, 12 steals, two home runs, 18 RBI, 26 runs scored, four doubles and two triples over 44 contests this season.

Tatis went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Dodgers.

Tatis had gone eight games without a multi-hit effort before his breakout effort Wednesday. The outfielder has six extra-base hits and six RBI over his last nine contests. He's batting .287 with an .825 OPS, 25 home runs, 81 RBI, 95 runs scored, 31 doubles, three triples and 36 stolen bases over a career-high 156 games this season.

Machado went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a third RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Dodgers.

This was Machado's fifth homer of September, and it ended up being all the Padres needed for the win Wednesday. The third baseman has added 13 RBI while batting .200 this month. On the year, he's hitting .218 with a .713 OPS, 29 homers, 87 RBI, 81 runs scored, 22 doubles and five stolen bases. Machado has as many as four games to push for the 30-homer mark, which he hasn't reached since 2023.

Ray allowed one run on seven hits and a walk while striking out two over 3.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Ray's short outing came down to inefficiency -- he needed 84 pitches (55 strikes) to get the 10 outs. It's been a bumpy September for the veteran lefty, who has allowed 14 runs over 16.2 innings with a 14:11 K:BB this month. His regular season is likely done at a 13-8 record with a 3.59 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 140:84 K:BB over 31 games (30 starts) between the Padres and the Giants. Ray is lined up to pitch in the wild-card series in the likely event the Padres secure a playoff spot.

Grissom went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Athletics.

Grissom has homered twice over his last four games, a span in which he has also gone 7-for-16 at the plate. The infielder is batting .244 with a .706 OPS, 13 homers, 70 RBI, 46 runs scored, 22 doubles and a stolen base across 115 contests this season. He's put together a serviceable stat line while seeing steady playing time since late June.

Grisham (hamstring) took part in live batting practice Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

Grisham is said to be "pretty deep into his running progression," which is the most significant part of his recovery from a right hamstring strain. He's also been hitting and doing other baseball activities. Grisham has already been ruled out from returning to action during the regular season, but if he continues to progress, he could be activated at some point during the playoffs.

Trout went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Athletics.

Trout's up to 22 homers on the year, though he's hit just two over his last 39 contests. He's batting .273 in that span compared to .247 overall, so it appears he sacrificed a bit of power for more consistent contact in the second half of the campaign. Trout has added an .815 OPS, 54 RBI, 85 runs scored, 26 doubles and 11 stolen bases over 139 contests, his most games played in a campaign since he logged 140 in 2018.

Schmidt could be shut down for the season if he's unable to pitch Thursday, MLB.com reports.

After completing his recovery from an internal brace procedure he underwent in July of 2025, Schmidt returned to the Yankees and pitched a scoreless two-thirds of an inning against Minnesota on Sept. 16. However, he suffered a biceps injury while warming up in the bullpen four days later. The right-hander reportedly had a "better" day Tuesday, but it's still unclear if he'll be able to return before the end of the season. Should Schmidt not be feeling well enough to pitch by Thursday, the Yankees may decide that he's better off being held out of pitching until 2027.
