Kwan went 2-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 4-2 win over the Angels.

Kwan scored the Guardians' first run on a sacrifice fly, giving him 19 runs scored over his last 19 games. Since the beginning of July, he's posted a .357/.457/.439 slash line with six doubles, two triples, one home run, 12 RBI, six steals and 29 runs across 44 contests.

Martinez started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a double in Monday's 4-2 win over the Angels.

Martinez entered the starting lineup after the Guardians scratched Chase DeLauter due to left hamstring tightness, the the same issue that forced him to miss three games last week. Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt indicated to Tim Stebbins of MLB.com that DeLauter likely could have remained in the lineup as the designated hitter, but the manager didn't want to take the chance. Martinez is batting .350 (7-for-20) with two doubles, two RBI, two steals and two runs scored over his last six contests.

Carroll went 0-for-3 with a walk and two steals in Monday's 7-0 loss to the Cubs.

One of the few bright spots from Monday's shutout was Carroll's two steals in the fourth inning. Those thefts upped his season total 20, the fourth straight year he's reached that threshold.

Conforto went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double, an additional run scored and a walk in Monday's 7-0 win over Arizona.

Conforto picked up a trio of hits, highlighted by a two-run homer to right field in the sixth inning. The 33-year-old has now homered in consecutive games for the first time this season after launching a long ball in Sunday's win over Seattle. With sporadic playing time, Conforto is slashing .232/.326/.473 with 12 homers, 33 RBI, 28 runs and a stolen base across 236 plate appearances in 2026.

Bolte went 3-for-4 with three runs scored and a walk in Monday's 9-6 loss to the Twins.

Bolte didn't drive in a run but crossed the plate a career-high three times. The rookie has been hot at the plate in August, slashing .345/.406/.494 with three homers, eight RBI, 17 runs and two stolen bases over 22 games. On the year, he's hitting .276/.352/.374 with six homers, 26 RBI, 37 runs and 14 stolen bases across 89 contests.

Buxton went 3-for-5 with a double, four runs scored and a walk in Monday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.

Buxton was active offensively, matching a season high with four runs while picking up three hits for the first time since June 26. In 10 games since returning from the injured list due to a right hip impingement, the center fielder has gone 7-for-36 (.194) with no homers, one RBI and eight runs. Overall, Buxton is slashing .256/.321/.515 with 25 homers, 46 RBI, 65 runs and seven stolen bases in 92 contests.

Rodriguez went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored Monday in a 9-2 victory versus the Phillies.

Rodriguez helped Seattle get off to a fast start with a three-run blast off Zack Wheeler in the first inning. The long ball snapped a 10-game homerless stretch during which he batted just .159 (7-for-44) with only one RBI and a 1:17 BB:K. Rodriguez hasn't been able to put it all together yet this year -- his .725 OPS is on pace for a career-worst mark -- though his homer Monday gave him 20 long balls for the fifth straight season. He's added 16 steals, 60 runs and 56 RBI through 121 contests.

The Guardians are optimistic that DeLauter (hamstring) will be back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

DeLauter was scratched shortly before Monday's matchup with hamstring tightness, though it looks as though he'll avoid an IL stint. The club should have a better idea of his availability for the rest of the series after re-evaluating him Tuesday morning.

Peters went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and a strikeout during Monday's 11-2 loss to Texas.

In his first at-bat against Kumar Rocker, Peters smashed a two-run homer, accounting for Chicago's lone two runs. Peters has now homered in three consecutive games for the White Sox. On the year, the 26-year-old is slashing .271/.333/.444 with 10 homers and 47 RBI in 391 plate appearances.

Lile went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer, five RBI, a double, a stolen base and two runs scored during Monday's 13-3 win over Colorado.

Lile provided the exclamation point during Monday's win after launching a three-run blast to extend Washington's lead to 10. It was the 23-year-old's first long ball since Aug. 7, snapping a 14-game drought. This year, Lile has slashed .246/.294/.411 with 16 home runs, 71 RBI and 13 stolen bases in 544 plate appearances.
