Arozarena went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

Arozarena is up to 22 steals on the year, though he's just 3-for-6 on the basepaths since the All-Star break. The outfielder has also struggled to sustain his production in a tougher second half of the campaign. Overall, he's batting .272 with an .830 OPS, 22 home runs, 67 RBI, 96 runs scored, 29 doubles and one triple over 140 contests.

Naylor went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

Naylor has hit .292 (15-for-120) with five steals and six extra-base hits over his last 30 games. The improvement in contact is a positive sign for the first baseman, who has struggled to live up to expectations in his first full year with the Mariners. He's batting .267 with a .682 OPS, 10 home runs, 27 steals, 49 RBI, 55 runs scored and 20 doubles across 138 contests.

Montes went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

Montes hasn't found a ton of consistency at the plate so far, batting .240 across his first nine big-league games. He has tapped into some power with three homers and a double among his six hits, giving him eight RBI and four runs scored as well. Montes topped 30 homers both this year and in 2025 in the minors as he's made a quick ascent to the majors. He'll be in contention to be the Mariners' starting right fielder in 2027, but he could end up in a platoon role if his strikeout rate remains excessively high.

Kirby allowed four runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Friday.

Kirby has given up at least four runs in five of his last six starts, yielding a total of 25 runs (24 earned) over his last 33.1 innings. He was able to avoid the loss since he left with the game tied, but it's been an unimpressive end to the year for the right-hander. Kirby is at a 4.25 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 138:39 K:BB through 165.1 innings over 28 starts. His next outing is projected to come on the road versus the Angels.

Bolte went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

The steal was Bolte's 20th of the season. He has played well in September, going 13-for-39 (.333) at the plate with four home runs, six steals and seven RBI over 10 games this month. Overall, he's hitting .276 with a .757 OPS, 10 homers, 33 RBI, 48 runs scored, 13 doubles and a triple over 105 contests as a rookie.

Walton went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

Walton has just seven homers on the year, but three have come over nine games in September. The utility man delivered with a walk-off blast in the 10th inning Friday, taking Eduard Bazardo deep. Walton has batted .277 with an .850 OPS, 25 RBI, 34 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 226 plate appearances between the Athletics and the Angels this season.

Butler went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and a double in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

Butler went deep in the third inning. He entered the contest 0-for-15 with five strikeouts over his previous four games. Aside from that skid, the outfielder has been pretty steady for much of the second half. He's now batting .229 with a .694 OPS, 14 homers, 54 RBI, 55 runs scored, 17 doubles, one triple and 10 stolen bases over 140 contests.

Springs allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out one over five innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Friday.

Springs's outing wasn't as good as last week's in Seattle, but he was only denied the win due to the Athletics' bullpen. The southpaw had been struggling in the second half and was shelved with right hip discomfort in August, but he has gotten back on track in September. For the season, he's at a 5.93 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 105:54 K:BB across 135 innings through 27 starts. Springs' next outing is projected to come on the road versus the Rays.

Arenado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 9-1 win over the Rangers.

Arenado's power continues to trend well -- he has homered three times over his last five games while adding five RBI in that span. The third baseman has also drawn at least one walk in four straight contests, a big improvement after he earned just seven free passes in all of August. Arenado is batting .239 with a .756 OPS, 24 homers, 70 RBI, 68 runs scored, 21 doubles, one triple and four stolen bases through 138 games this year.

Carroll went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 9-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

Carroll went yard as part of a five-run sixth inning for the Diamondbacks. The outfielder had missed the previous two games due to lower back discomfort. He reached the 20-homer mark Friday, but his power has been a little lacking recently, as he has just two long balls over his last 25 games. For the season, he's batting .240 with an .803 OPS, 63 RBI, 86 runs scored, 30 doubles, 16 triples and 21 stolen bases over 142 contests. Carroll has reached the 20-20 mark in each of his four full major-league seasons.
