White went 2-for-3 with an RBI in Saturday's 13-2 loss to Houston.

White tallied a pair of hits, including an RBI single in the seventh inning with the contest already well out of hand. The rookie has logged 12 multi-hit games, with three such efforts coming in September. In 55 games, White is slashing .257/.275/.332 with three homers, 10 RBI and 19 runs while seeing action at both first base and third base.

Naylor went 0-for-4 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Angels.

Naylor has reached the 30-steal mark for the second year in a row. That's a rare accomplishment for a first baseman -- he's the first to post 30 steals in consecutive years since George Sisler did in three straight years from 1920-1922. Prior to Naylor's last two years, the last first baseman to have 30 steals in a campaign was Paul Goldschmidt in 2016. While the work on the basepaths has been impressive, Naylor has struggled in other areas, batting .261 with a .667 OPS, 10 home runs, 56 RBI, 48 runs scored and 22 doubles over 151 contests. That OPS is his lowest in a full-length campaign; only his .621 mark in the abbreviated 2020 campaign is worse in his eight seasons.

Tawa went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Saturday's 10-7 loss to the Padres.

Tawa had gone just 6-for-42 (.143) over his previous 13 games, failing to log a multi-hit effort in that span. All three of his hits Saturday were singles. The utility man is now batting .239 with a .692 OPS, 11 home runs, 41 RBI, 40 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and eight stolen bases over 103 contests. While his overall numbers aren't that great, he has displayed clear progress compared to 2025, when he hit .201 with a .621 OPS in 74 games.

The Padres reinstated Sheets (foot) from the injured list Saturday.

Sheets has been out since late August due to a sprained left foot, but he'll return in time for the Padres' final two regular-season games and the postseason. The 30-year-old is expected to work exclusively as a DH now that he's healthy, allowing Ty France to keep his hold on the starting first base job.

Stowers isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta due to an abdominal injury, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Saturday will mark the third consecutive game that Stowers hasn't started as he battles abdominal pain, and with the Marlins' season set to end Sunday, the team may decide to keep him out as a precaution. Stowers' absence Saturday will allow Deyvison De Los Santos to start at first base.

Freeman isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

Freeman will get a chance to regroup Saturday after turning in just a .522 OPS in 45 plate appearances while starting each of the Dodgers' last 10 games. Enrique Hernandez will start at first base and bat eighth while Freeman sits.

Torkelson went 3-for-4 with a double, a triple, a home run and three RBI in Friday's 8-7 win over the Pirates.

Torkelson was a single shy of his first career cycle at the MLB level, and his strong effort included his first triple of the year as well as his 26th home run. With two games left in the regular season for Detroit, Torkelson could tie a career high with 159 games played if he appears in both of them. The slugger has proven to be quite dependable this year, and he figures to head into 2027 as a fairly well established source of power who also swings and misses frequently.

Murakami went 3-for-4 with two homers, three RBI and a strikeout during Friday's 6-1 win over the Rockies.

Murakami connected for his first multi-homer game since July 26 on Friday against Colorado. The Japanese first baseman took Tomoyuki Sugano deep in the first and seventh innings. The 26-year-old extended his on-base streak to 13 games after reaching base three times. This year, Murakami is batting .209/.351/.483 with 35 homers and 77 RBI in 544 plate appearances.

Rumfield went 2-for-4 with a solo homer during Friday's 6-1 loss to the White Sox.

Rumfield clubbed his first long ball since Sept. 4 against the Cardinals. The 26-year-old drove in Colorado's lone run of the night with a solo shot off Sean Burke in the second inning. This year, Rumfield is slashing .299/.389/.452 with 16 homers and 72 RBI in 630 plate appearances.

Alonso went 4-for-8 with two home runs, two walks, three RBI and four runs scored across both games of Friday's doubleheader against the Yankees.

Alonso took sole possession of the American League lead in home runs with two long balls in Game 1 before reaching base three times in Game 2. Prior to his single in the fourth inning of the first game, the slugger's previous seven hits had left the yard. He's gone deep 11 times overall in 23 September contests and is slashing .267/.363/.522 with 43 homers, 113 RBI, 100 runs scored and five steals across 700 plate appearances with one game to go this season.
