Duran went 2-for-5 with a double, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Monday's 7-0 win over the Athletics.

This was Duran's first successful theft since Aug. 27 versus the Orioles. The speedy outfielder is up to 23 steals on 29 attempts this season, including five thefts over 33 contests since the beginning of August. Duran has added a .259/.334/.443 slash line with 14 home runs, 78 RBI, 78 runs scored, 37 doubles and 12 triples across 141 games.

Narvaez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-0 win over the Athletics.

Narvaez has gone deep four times over his last 17 games, a stretch that dates back to Aug. 12. He's added 11 RBI in that span while batting .281 (16-for-57). On the season, the catcher is up to a .252/.321/.429 slash line with 13 homers, 44 RBI, 49 runs scored, 24 doubles and one stolen base through 104 contests.

Story went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and a second run scored in Monday's 7-0 win over the Athletics.

Story logged his fourth multi-hit effort over seven games in September. He provided early offense with his first-inning solo shot, which was his fifth homer over his last 16 contests. The shortstop is up to 24 homers, 90 RBI, 82 runs scored, 26 doubles, 27 stolen bases and a .263/.310/.444 slash line through 141 contests as one of Boston's steadiest hitters.

Crochet (15-5) allowed three hits and struck out 10 without walking a batter over seven shutout innings to earn the win over the Athletics on Monday.

Just one of the three hits went for extra bases. This was Crochet's fifth scoreless outing of the season, and he reached the double-digit mark in strikeouts for the seventh time in an impressive bounce-back performance after his season-worst outing against Cleveland last week. Crochet is now at a 2.57 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 228:42 K:BB through 185.1 innings over 29 starts. The southpaw's next start is expected to be at home versus the Yankees this weekend.

Morales (3-1) allowed five runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out two over 4.2 innings to take the loss versus the Red Sox on Monday.

Morales had his first setback in the majors, as he allowed as many runs in this start as he did across his first six appearances combined. The Red Sox were also able to get to him for two home runs to send him to his first loss. Morales has a 2.73 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB over 33 innings so far. He'll look to bounce back this weekend in a start projected to be at home against the Reds.

Marte went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 11-5 loss to the Giants.

Entering Monday, Marte had gone 0-for-13 across his previous four games, though he had four walks in that span. The second baseman was able to get his bat going again with his first three-hit game since he had four knocks Aug. 13 versus the Rangers. Marte is at a .287/.388/.520 slash line with 25 home runs, 64 RBI, 79 runs scored and four stolen bases across 111 contests this season.

Moreno went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Monday's 11-5 loss to the Giants.

Moreno has gone 7-for-21 (.333) with three extra-base hits and four RBI over seven games in September. The catcher's blast came in the eighth inning Monday and was too late to help the Diamondbacks get back into the contest. He's up to eight homers, 33 RBI, 40 runs scored, one stolen base and a .283/.337/.448 slash line through 68 games this season, occupying a starting role when healthy.

Crismatt allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three over four innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Monday.

Crismatt gave up multiple home runs in an appearance for the first time this season. He was limited to 50 pitches (34 strikes) in this ineffective start. The right-hander has posted a 3.24 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 17:7 K:BB through 25 innings over five outings (four starts). With Anthony DeSclafani back from a thumb injury, Crismatt can ill afford any further poor performances.

Bailey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Monday's 11-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

Bailey's up to four homers on the year, with two of them coming over his last six games. He's driven in six runs in that span as well. The catcher hasn't been able to do much with the bat, compiling a .217/.273/.308 slash line with 45 RBI, 39 runs scored, 15 doubles and three triples while adding one stolen base over 118 contests this season.

Smith went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 11-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

Smith's blast tied the game at 4-4 in the third inning. The first baseman has hit safely in his last nine games, going 13-for-37 (.351) with two homers and 11 RBI during the streak. That surge has him up to a .291/.341/.427 slash line with five long balls, 33 RBI, 26 runs scored, 12 doubles and two stolen bases over 220 plate appearances this season in a strong-side platoon role.
