Arenado went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer and an additional RBI in Thursday's 12-8 win over the Rockies.

Arenado extended Arizona's lead to 6-0 with his two-run shot in the first inning, his 29th homer of the year, the most he's hit in a season since 2022. The veteran third baseman has been on fire down the stretch -- Arenado's now gone 22-for-49 (.449) with seven homers in his last 13 games. He's boosted his slash line to .254/.326/.469 across 586 plate appearances this year with 83 RBI and 77 runs scored.

Atlanta recalled Waldrep (elbow) from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday and placed him on the 60-day injured list.

Waldrep will join the big-league 60-day IL to free up space on the 40-man roster for Elieser Hernandez, who was selected to the 28-man roster Thursday. Waldrep is slated to miss the entire 2027 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and a strikeout during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

Ramirez stole two bases during Thursday's win, his first bags swiped since Aug. 12 against the Nationals. The 22-year-old has recorded at least one base hit in five of his last six games. This year, Ramirez is slashing .261/.319/.406 with six homers, 32 RBI, nine stolen bases and 20 walks over 258 plate appearances.

Carrigg went 4-for-5 with a three-run homer in Thursday's 12-8 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Carrigg made things interesting in the seventh inning Thursday with a three-run, 404-foot blast off Dennis Santana, his 11th homer this season, that cut Colorado's deficit to 12-6. Carrigg's been hot down the stretch, going 17-for-43 (.395) with four long balls in his last 10 games. Overall, the 24-year-old rookie is slashing .276/.340/.469 with 51 RBI, 47 runs scored and 11 steals across 361 plate appearances this year.

Barnett will start Thursday's game against the Astros in Sacramento.

The Athletics summoned Barnett from Triple-A Las Vegas last Friday to make his first appearance for the big club in more than a month, and the 25-year-old right-hander languished in a 5-3 loss to the Guardians. He took a no-decision in the start, coughing up three runs on seven hits and four walks in 3.1 innings to bring his ERA and WHIP up to 7.16 and 1.75, respectively, over his 19 appearances for the Athletics on the season. Despite the poor showing, Barnett will receive one last turn through the rotation as the Athletics kick off a four-game set versus Houston to close out the campaign.

Atlanta selected Hernandez's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

With Martin Perez (back) headed to the injured list, Hernandez will rejoin Atlanta's bullpen to fill the open roster spot. The 31-year-old has allowed just three earned runs in 11 innings with the big club this year but owns a 4.64 ERA and 1.43 WHIP across 85.1 innings in the minors. Hurston Waldrep (elbow) was placed on the 60-day IL to clear space on the 40-man roster.

Suzuki went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, a walk and a strikeout during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

Suzuki extended his hitting streak to six games after recording two base hits Thursday. The 32-year-old stepped to the plate in the fifth inning and launched his 26th homer of the campaign off Jack Ralston to tie the game. Suzuki is now slashing .270/.366/.476 with 26 homers, 86 RBI and 79 walks in 625 plate appearances this season.

Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-3 with a walk, stolen base and a strikeout during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

With his stolen base Thursday, Crow-Armstrong officially joined the illustrious club of just six other players with 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season. The 24-year-old swiped his 40th bag after drawing a walk in the first inning against Tyler Phillips. The young phenom has cemented his MVP campaign, batting .280/.373/.575 with 45 homers, 107 RBI, 40 stolen bases and 82 walks over 716 plate appearances this season.

Rodriguez (16-7) earned the win Thursday over the Rockies, allowing two runs on nine hits and no walks over six innings. He struck out three.

Rodriguez did a good job working his way out of danger Thursday, as he held Colorado to just a pair of runs despite dealing with at least one base runner in each of his six innings. It's a nice bounce-back effort from Rodriguez, who was tagged for seven runs over 5.1 frames his last time out against the Yankees. The lefty will finish a strong regular season with a 2.89 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 143:62 K:BB across 32 starts (189.2 innings).

The Angels recalled Martin from Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Martin returns to the big leagues after being down in Triple-A since his demotion Aug. 30, where the right hander posted 7.88 ERA and 1.38 WHIP across 8.0 innings through four games. He's getting brought up as a corresponding move with Ben Joyce (shoulder) getting placed on the injured list.
