Meyers went 1-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored Wednesday against the Rockies.

Meyers has progressively moved up the Astros' order, in part due to injuries and in part due to his strong performance. He's now hit second in the lineup in four straight games, and he's reached base at a .353 clip with four runs scored and a stolen base in that short sample. Meyers has had a breakout season at the plate, maintaining a .302 average with 14 stolen bases across 307 plate appearances.

Robert (hamstring) ran and took batting practice prior to Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, MLB.com reports.

Robert landed on the injured list Sunday, and his return to activity so quickly is a positive sign. There's no official timeline for his return, but the White Sox hope he can return shortly after the minimum 10 days his IL stint requires.

Benintendi went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Benintendi got the White Sox offense going early, as he tallied an RBI single in the first inning and then doubled and scored two frames later. He's produced well across his last 12 starts, hitting .250 with 10 RBI and seven runs scored as well as six extra-base hits. Overall, Benintendi now has a .744 OPS across 233 plate appearances, good for his highest mark since joining the White Sox.

Slater went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, a triple and an additional run scored during Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers.

Slater tripled in his first at-bat against Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday and then tagged the future Hall of Famer for a go-ahead, two-run home run in the third inning. The long ball was Slater's third of the campaign (93 plate appearances), officially surpassing his 2024 total of two homers in 212 plate appearances. In his last 10 games, Slater has gone 9-for-30 (.300) with seven runs scored and a 3:6 BB:K.

Arozarena went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a sacrifice fly during Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Royals.

Arozarena has been on a tear lately, having homered in three consecutive games -- bringing his season total to 12 long balls -- and logging multiple hits in five straight contests. The outfielder's hot streak dates back 14 games, during which he's gone 21-for-56 (.375) with six doubles and four home runs.

Taylor was removed from Wednesday's game against the Dodgers due to a left trap contusion.

Taylor was caught stealing third base in the sixth inning and didn't come out on defense for the bottom of the frame. It remains to be seen whether his bruise will prevent him from playing in Thursday's series finale, but if that's the case, Brooks Baldwin could be in line to start in center field.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a two-run single in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to Atlanta.

It didn't take Adell long to log a hit Wednesday, with his single in the first bringing home Nolan Schanuel and Taylor Ward. Adell has logged a hit in 13 consecutive games, and over that span he has slashed .340/.421/.680 with 11 runs scored, five home runs and 12 RBI across 57 plate appearances.

Judge went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 11-9 loss to the Blue Jays.

Judge hit an RBI double in the fifth inning and tied the game at 9-9 with a 440-foot homer in the eighth. The two-time MVP has hit safely in seven of his past 10 games, collecting seven extra-base hits, nine RBI and 10 runs scored in that span. He leads the majors with a .363 batting average and also ranks second in home runs (31), third in RBI (70) and second in runs (77) while adding six stolen bases across 383 plate appearances.

Schneider went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Wednesday's 11-9 win over the Yankees

Schneider hit a two-run homer in the first inning and went deep again in the seventh. The 26-year-old went 5-for-10 with three extra-base hits and four runs scored in the series against the Yankees after entering it just 3-for-23 over his previous 10 games. For the season, he's slashing .228/.380/.421 with three home runs, eight RBI and 11 runs scored across 71 plate appearances.

The Orioles are expected to activate O'Neill (shoulder) from the injured list Friday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

A left shoulder impingement forced O'Neill onto the injured list in mid-May, and his rehab was extended slightly after he suffered a setback in June. During his 10-game rehab assignment, the 30-year-old outfielder went 10-for-31 (.323) with a home run, two RBI and four runs scored. He'll likely take over as Baltimore's primary DH upon returning and aim to carry momentum over from his time in the minors, as he's posted just a .605 OPS over his first 24 games as an Oriole.
