Senga earned the save in Tuesday's 7-5 win over Miami, allowing one run on two hits while striking out two batters in the ninth inning.

Senga was brought out for the ninth inning to protect the Mets' three-run lead. He gave up a run on back-to-back doubles but rebounded by striking out the last two batters to secure the win for the Mets. Senga has converted each of his last seven save chances, and he appears to be the Mets' preferred closer for as long as Devin Williams (shoulder) is on the IL.

Baty went 1-for-3 with a sacrifice fly and a solo home run during the Mets' 7-5 win over the Marlins on Tuesday.

Baty was responsible for two of the seven runs the Mets scored against Sandy Alcantara, with Baty smacking a solo homer in the third inning before bringing Jacob Young home on a sacrifice fly in the fifth. Baty has driven in at least one run in four of his last five games, going 5-for-13 with three doubles, two home runs, nine RBI and three runs scored in that span.

McGonigle went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Twins.

McGonigle provided all of Detroit's offense in the fifth inning with his 16th home run of the season, which was his second long ball in as many nights. After slowing down a bit in August with a .231 batting average and .697 OPS across 27 games, the rookie infielder is aiming to wrap up his debut campaign with a flourish. No matter how he finishes the year, McGonigle has done more than enough to establish himself as a rising fantasy star heading into 2027.

Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Lindor set the tone early for the Mets' batters by taking the first pitch he saw from Sandy Alcantara deep to center field for a leadoff homer in the first inning. Lindor has a .222 batting average (14-for-63) over his last 15 games, but he's also smashed five home runs in that span while logging seven RBI and 12 runs scored.

Henderson was removed from Tuesday's game against the Guardians with an apparent foot injury, Andy Kostka of TheBanner.com reports.

Henderson fouled a ball off his foot during his at-bat in the eighth inning. He initially remained in the game, drew a walk and advanced to second on a Coby Mayo groundout, but he was then pulled after a visit from a trainer. He'll likely undergo imaging to determine whether he suffered a fracture, and the Orioles may provide more information on his health after the game.

Soto went 2-for-4 with a double, a three-run home run and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 7-5 win over Miami.

The Mets jumped all over Sandy Alcantara early, with Soto supplying a three-run long ball in the second inning to give his team a 5-0 lead. Soto has logged two hits in both of his last two games and has three home runs since returning from the injured list Aug. 29. For the season, he is slashing .279/.400/.536 with eight steals (in 11 attempts), 24 home runs and 59 RBI across 401 plate appearances.

Manaea (5-7) earned the win against the Marlins on Tuesday, allowing four runs on five hits while striking out four across five innings. He did not issue a walk.

Manaea was in complete control for most of Tuesday's start, retiring the first 15 batters he faced while being handed a 6-0 lead by his Mets teammates. However, the left-hander's night took a turn for the worse in the sixth, when he allowed a hit to each of the first five batters he faced while being tagged for four runs. Luckily for Manaea, he received enough run support to come away with his fifth win of the season and third since the All-Star break. He's allowed at least four runs in each of his last five outings, and he'll take a 4.79 ERA and 1.34 WHIP over 133.1 innings into his next start, tentatively slated for next week at home against the Orioles.

Langeliers (knee) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Langeliers has missed most of the second half after undergoing a meniscectomy on his right knee July 28, but after a speedy recovery, the 28-year-old backstop could be ready to return to the Athletics' lineup by the time the team begins its next road trip next Tuesday. He is expected to work exclusively as a designated hitter for the rest of the season, which means Jonah Heim and Brian Serven will continue to split starts behind the plate after Langeliers is activated.

MRI results on Ribalta's right forearm came back negative Tuesday, Kyle Williams of TheBanner.com reports.

Ribalta landed on the injured list Monday with forearm inflammation, but the results of his tests confirmed that he isn't dealing with a structural issue. The Nationals will now shift their focus to making sure the 28-year-old gets enough time to rest and recover, and with the team well outside of the hunt for a postseason berth, there's no guarantee he pitches again this season.

Bericoto (knee) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Bericoto has gradually built up his workload over the past week as he recovers from a bone bruise in his right knee, and he's now been cleared to test his knee in a true game setting. He'll likely need a handful of minor-league at-bats after spending a little more than two weeks on the injured list, but he could still return sometime in mid-September.
