Montgomery is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

The rookie outfielder started the previous 10 games but will get a day to reset after batting .133 (4-for-30) during that stretch. Brenton Doyle will start in center field Sunday, pushing Tristan Peters to right in place of Montgomery.

Mullins is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Mullins has gone 2-for-20 across his past seven games and will take a seat Sunday even though Houston is sending right-hander Hayden Wesneski to the mound. Jonny DeLuca is starting in center field and batting sixth in the series finale.

Caglianone (elbow) is batting third as the designated hitter Sunday against the Red Sox.

The 23-year-old was held out of the starting nine the past six games due to a flexor strain, but he'll return to the lineup Sunday after making a pinch-hit appearance in Saturday's contest. Caglianone is off to a slow start to September, going 4-for-18 with two doubles, four RBI and two runs through six games.

Caglianone (elbow) came off the bench and went 0-for-1 in Saturday's 5-1 loss against the Red Sox.

Caglianone pinch hit for Kyle Isbel in the eighth inning, striking out on four pitches before Josh Rojas replaced him defensively. Saturday marked Caglianone's first game action since Sept. 5, as he's dealing with a left flexor strain. Seeing the 23-year-old get an at-bat is a positive sign, but it remains to be seen if he'll be penciled into Sunday's lineup or be able to play defense. On the year, Caglianone is slashing .282/.331/.493 with 23 homers, 70 RBI, 66 runs and six stolen bases in 132 contests.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Royals.

Abreu broke a tie with a two-out, two-run double in the sixth inning. Saturday's effort was the third consecutive game with an extra-base hit and RBI for the outfielder. Abreu remains a productive hitter deep into a season in which he's logged a career-high 630 plate appearances; he has a .538 slugging percentage and 30 extra-base hits over 53 contests since the All-Star break.

Clark went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 11-7 win over the Rockies.

A day after launching a home run against Colorado, Clark kept rolling with his third three-hit performance of the month. In September, the dynamic rookie is slashing .382/.500/.588 with a home run, three stolen bases, five RBI and eight runs scored across 10 games. Clark is trending up as he wraps up his first MLB campaign, and he figures to carry plenty of momentum into 2027.

Rodriguez went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Saturday's 19-1 win over the Athletics.

Rodriguez has gone 6-for-16 over four games since he was dropped to fifth in the batting order. The outfielder was one of five Mariners to collect at least three hits in Saturday's onslaught of offense. For the season, Rodriguez is batting .243 with a .701 OPS, 21 home runs, 65 RBI, 68 runs scored, 22 doubles and 20 stolen bases over 138 contests, putting him in line for the worst year of his career in most categories.

Arozarena went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's 19-1 win over the Athletics.

Arozarena ended a nine-game power drought with the second-inning blast. The outfielder had just two doubles and two RBI during that stretch. Arozarena is now batting .273 with an .835 OPS, 23 homers, 71 RBI, 97 runs scored, 29 doubles, one triple and 22 stolen bases over 141 contests this year. While his rate stats are among his best for a full season in his career, the outfielder's counting stats are mostly level or a little below where he's been in recent years.

Langford went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

This was just his second multi-hit effort in September. Langford has gone 7-for-39 (.179) over 11 games this month, though he has five extra-base hits in that stretch. For the season, the outfielder is batting .244 with a .775 OPS, 17 homers, 39 RBI, 58 runs scored, 19 doubles, two triples and 13 stolen bases over 97 contests.

Grichuk went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Cardinals.

Grichuk tagged Riley O'Brien for a two-run blast in the ninth inning, which ultimately won the game for the White Sox. Over his last six games, Grichuk has gone 9-for-17 with two homers and four RBI. The veteran outfielder is batting .286 with an .883 OPS, 13 homers, 38 RBI, 34 runs scored, 23 doubles and one triple over 105 contests this season between the White Sox and the Yankees.
