Carroll is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

Carroll is absent from the starting nine for a second straight game to close out the regular season. Assuming he doesn't enter the contest off the bench, Carroll will finish 2025 with 31 homers, 32 stolen bases, 107 runs and 84 RBI across 642 plate appearances. He has a career-high .884 OPS. Jorge Barrosa will patrol right field.

Reynolds is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Reynolds is absent from the starting lineup for the regular-season finale, snapping a streak of eight consecutive starts. If he doesn't enter Sunday's contest off the bench, Reynolds will finish the campaign with a .244/.317/.399 slash line, 16 home runs and 67 runs scored -- all of which would be his worst since 2020.

Cruz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Cruz has been dealing with ankle discomfort recently, and he'll get a breather for Pittsburgh's regular-season finale. Alexander Canario will patrol center field. Cruz is slashing .200/.298/.379 with 20 home runs and 38 stolen bases across 543 plate appearances.

Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Cardinals.

Crow-Armstrong has now gone deep in consecutive games, pushing his season total up to 31. That's easily a new career best and is tied with Seiya Suzuki for second on the team behind Michael Busch, who has 34 long balls. Crow-Armstrong has also swiped 35 bases this year, giving him his first career 30-30 campaign and offering a glimpse at the 23-year-old's long-term potential.

Hays (back) felt good after hitting in the batting cage Saturday, MLB.com reports.

Hays had felt guarded with his injury in activities earlier in the week but came out of Saturday's session feeling "much better," according to Reds manager Terry Francona. Hays also did some running and agility drills on the field, but the team will monitor how he bounces back before making any decisions regarding his availability for Sunday's regular-season finale, a game in which the Reds can clinch a wild-card spot with a win (or a Mets loss).

Tatis went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

Tatis led off with his third homer in as many days to spark a three-run first inning for the Padres. The 26-year-old is closing the regular season on a strong note, hitting safely in nine of his last 10 games with four home runs, eight RBI, 13 runs scored and three stolen bases in that span. He's slashing .267/.367/.446 with 25 long balls, 71 RBI, 110 runs scored and 32 steals across 689 plate appearances.

Suwinski went 2-for-3 with an RBI on Saturday against Atlanta.

Suwinski delivered an RBI in the sixth inning to put the Pirates up 3-1. He's had an abysmal offensive season and spent much of the year in the minors, though he has at least one hit in five of his last seven games. Suwinski has closed the season as the Pirates' primary left fielder against right-handed pitching, though he's likely to face significant competition for a roster spot to begin 2026.

Beck went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Giants.

Beck delivered his 16th long ball of the season in the ninth inning, and his first since Sept. 6. After a strong first half, his power has evaporated in the final couple of months, as he entered Saturday's game having just a .118 ISO across 243 plate appearances in the second half. Beck has still put together a solid season, hitting .260 with 19 stolen bases across 147 games.

Walker went 1-for-2 with two walks, a two-run home run and a stolen base in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Cubs.

The long ball, his first since Aug. 28, was the sixth of the season for Walker, while the steal was his 10th in 110 big-league games. The 23-year-old outfielder is still struggling to establish himself in the majors, but he's batting .280 (7-for-25) over the last eight contests with more walks (five) than strikeouts (four) as he looks to wrap up 2025 on a positive note.

Doyle went 2-for-3 with a double and a solo home run during the Rockies' 4-3 loss to the Giants on Saturday.

Doyle gave the Rockies a two-run lead in the second inning with a solo shot off Justin Verlander. It was Doyle's 15th home run of the season but his first since Aug. 23 against the Pirates. He has struggled at the plate since Sept. 1 with a .432 OPS, two steals and four RBI in 23 strikeouts across 78 plate appearances.
