Hays went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-3 loss to the Rockies.

This was Hays' third multi-hit effort in a row, though it comes over the span of a week as he continues to work in a part-time role. The outfielder ended an 18-game power drought when he went deep in the fifth inning. Hays is batting .270 with a .694 OPS, three homers, 12 RBI, 14 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 93 plate appearances between the Padres and the White Sox this year.

Tatis went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-3 loss to the Rockies.

Tatis took Kyle Freeland deep on the second pitch of the game to give the Padres a hot start. With six homers over 13 contests in September, Tatis is finishing the regular season on a high note in the power department. Overall, he's batting .288 with an .821 OPS, 23 homers, 78 RBI, 89 runs scored, 29 doubles, three triples and 35 stolen bases through 149 contests.

Johnston went 3-for-3 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Padres.

This was Johnston's first multi-hit effort since Aug. 26 versus the Nationals. He's had trouble getting consistent at-bats in the second half, as he's hitting just .243 (25-for-103) over 35 games since the All-Star break. Overall, he's batting .285 with a .759 OPS, four home runs, 50 RBI, 40 runs scored, 31 doubles, one triple and four stolen bases across 428 plate appearances.

Carrigg went 4-for-5 with two home runs, a double and five RBI in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Padres.

Carrigg had a two-run blast in the third inning and boosted the Rockies' lead with a three-run homer in the sixth. The rookie is up to 10 homers on the season, including four over 13 contests in September. He's batting .270 with an .812 OPS, 45 RBI, 45 runs scored, 21 doubles, four triples and nine stolen bases through 82 games this season.

Hill went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, three RBI and a walk during Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Cardinals.

Hill belted his first career home run in the ninth inning off Cade Winquest to extend the Giants' lead. The 27-year-old also contributed an RBI single and an RBI groundout earlier in the game. Hill is now slashing .250/.351/.363 with one homer and 15 RBI over 97 plate appearances this season.

Lile went 1-for-1 with a three-run home run during the Nationals' 6-3 win over the Phillies on Tuesday.

Lile pinch hit for Dylan Crews in the seventh inning, and the former answered the call by taking Jonathan Bowlan deep to center field for a 407-foot, three-run homer to give the Nationals the lead for good. Lile is up to 21 home runs on the season (fourth-most on the Nationals), along with a .740 OPS and 85 RBI across 615 plate appearances.

Harris is not in Tuesday's starting lineup against Colorado.

Despite riding a modest four-game hitting streak, Harris will rest as the Rockies send southpaw Kyle Freeland to toe the slab Tuesday. Samad Taylor will man left field and bat eighth for San Diego.

The Diamondbacks optioned Troy to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.

Troy went just 1-for-8 with a run scored and three strikeouts in six games after coming off the injured list Sept. 6 and will now move back to the minors to make room for Jesus Sanchez, who was claimed off waivers from Toronto. Barring an injury to one of Arizona's position players, Troy is likely to play out the rest of the season at Reno.

Wood is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

After spending a month on the IL due to an oblique injury, Wood returned on Sept. 2 and started the past 10 contests. He's gone 11-for-37 (.297 average) with three doubles, four steals, two RBI and two runs since being activated, but he has seen his home-run drought extend to 18 games. Andres Chaparro is batting second as the designated hitter Tuesday for Washington.

Baez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

Baez has been getting extra days off lately, as this is the third time he's been absent from the lineup over the Cardinals' last seven contests. It's possible the club wants to ensure he retains rookie eligibility in 2027, and in order to do that, Baez must remain under 130 at-bats (he's currently at 96). Bryan Torres will play left field for St. Louis on Tuesday.
