Sasaki recorded a one-out save in Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Phillies on Monday.

Sasaki tallied a traditional save in Saturday's Game 1, but skipper Dave Roberts called on the right-hander with two outs in the bottom of the ninth Monday with runners on first and third in a one-run game. Sasaki needed only two pitches to retire Trea Turner, inducing a grounder to second baseman Tommy Edman to record the final out of the matchup. Sasaki could very well be in position to handle closing duties moving forward after Blake Treinen was rocked for two runs on three hits while failing to record an out Monday.

Edwards elected free agency Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

Edwards was exiled from the 40-man roster shortly before the completion of the regular season, and he's since chosen to test the open market. He struggled to find opportunities in the major leagues this season across stops with the Angels and Rangers, surrendering three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out six across 6.0 innings (four appearances).

Brito (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sept. 25.

Brito landed on the 7-day IL in July due to an unspecified injury, and while he didn't see any action down the stretch of the minor-league season, the team has declared that he's returned to health by officially activating him. He appeared in 12 games for High-A Ashland in 2025, posting a 3.28 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with a 65:28 K:BB across 49.1 innings.

Turner will start at first base and bat leadoff Monday in Game 2 of the NLDS in Milwaukee, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

The right-handed-hitting Turner is expected to get one plate appearance against lefty opener Aaron Ashby before being replaced by the left-handed-swinging Michael Busch. Turner slashed .219/.288/.314 in 80 games for the Cubs this season and will be making his first appearance this postseason.

Busch is not in the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Brewers, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

The Brewers are starting a left-handed opener in Aaron Ashby, so the Cubs are going with the right-handed-hitting Justin Turner at first base and in the leadoff spot. Per Montemurro, Busch is likely to replace Turner after the latter receives one plate appearance and the Brewers bring a right-hander into the game. Busch has homered in each of his last two postseason contests.

Mariners manager Dan Wilson said Monday that Naylor is with his expecting wife and it's uncertain whether the first baseman will be available for ALDS Games 3 and 4 in Detroit, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Naylor did not travel with the team as he and his wife await the birth of their first child. He could be placed on the paternity list, which would make him unavailable for 1-to-3 games, but it does not seem to be a given that a move will be made. Luke Raley or Eugenio Suarez could fill in at first base if Naylor has to miss time. If it's Suarez who is used at first base, the Mariners would likely install Ben Williamson at third base. Naylor has gone 0-for-8 with a 1:1 BB:K in the first two games of the ALDS versus the Tigers.

Chourio (hamstring) will start in left field and bat leadoff Monday in Game 2 of the NLDS against the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Chourio had to depart Game 1 on Saturday in the second inning due to right hamstring tightness. It's the same hamstring he strained earlier this season that kept him out of commission for a month, but an MRI came back inconclusive this time around and he's been cleared to play Monday. Before exiting Game 1, Chourio had gone 3-for-3 at the plate.

Kemp will start in left field and bat ninth Monday in Game 2 of the NLDS versus the Dodgers.

With Harrison Bader (groin) out of the lineup, Brandon Marsh will shift to center field and Kemp will enter the fray in left field. It will be the postseason debut for Kemp, who slashed .234/.298/.411 with eight home runs in 62 regular-season contests for the Phillies.

Bader (groin) is not in the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Dodgers.

Bader had to exit Game 1 on Saturday with left groin tightness and is not well enough to return to the lineup. Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that Bader will hit in the cage pregame and could be available off the bench as a pinch hitter, Charlotte Varnes of The Athletic reports. Brandon Marsh will start in center field and will be flanked by Nick Castellanos in right field and Otto Kemp in left field.

Muncy is absent from the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Phillies.

With the Phillies sending left-hander Jesus Luzardo to the bump, the left-handed-hitting Muncy will begin the contest on the bench. Miguel Rojas will start at third base and bat seventh for the Dodgers. There's a good chance Muncy will enter Game 2 at some point when/if the Phillies turn to a righty.
