  • Diamondbacks' Lourdes Gurriel: First game action since activation

    Gurriel will start at designated hitter and bat fifth in Monday's game against the Royals.

    Arizona activated Gurriel from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, but he didn't play in any of the team's ensuing five games following his reinstatement. Prior to missing time due to a right adductor strain, Gurriel slashed just .207/.254/.287 with two home runs over 47 games for Arizona. He could have to settle for sporadic playing time down the stretch while the Diamondbacks fight for a wild-card spot.

  • Corbin Carroll RF | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Taking seat Monday

    Carroll is absent from the lineup for Monday's game in Kansas City.

    Carroll is just 6-for-49 (.122) at the plate over his last 13 contests. After being dropped from the No. 2 spot to the No. 5 spot in the Diamondbacks' batting order for the previous two games, Carroll will be out of the lineup entirely for Monday's series opener. Tim Tawa is getting a start in right field in Carroll's stead.

  • Riley Greene LF | DET

    Tigers' Riley Greene: Doubles twice, drives in two in loss

    Greene went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Sunday's 3-2, 10-inning loss to the Guardians.

    Greene couldn't quite match the two home runs he recorded Saturday, though he still had another strong performance. The outfielder just returned from the injured list Tuesday after missing a few weeks with a hamstring strain. After recording only two hits and two RBI total in his first three games back, Greene now has six hits and six RBI over his last two contests. It looks like he's settling back into an offensive groove, though with the Tigers sitting at 65-78, the 25-year-old star may get some rest down the stretch as Detroit turns its attention to 2027.

  • Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong: Reaches 40-homer plateau

    Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two total RBI in Sunday's 10-3 loss to the Marlins.

    Crow-Armstrong's fifth-inning home run was one of the few bright spots for Chicago in an ugly loss, as it got the star outfielder to 40 home runs for the first time in his MLB career, and he also set a new career high with 96 RBI. Additionally, the 24-year-old is sitting at 33 stolen bases, and if he gets particularly active on the basepaths over the next few weeks, he could record the first 40-40 campaign in Cubs' team history and just the seventh in MLB history. Crow-Armstrong ultimately has his sights set on a possible NL MVP award in what's been a masterful fantasy performance to date.

  • Tristan Peters CF | CHW

    White Sox's Tristan Peters: Three runs scored in win

    Peters went 3-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and three runs scored during Sunday's 10-1 win over the Twins.

    Peters has doubles in back-to-back games as he shows some power for the first time since the end of August, when he hit homers in five straight games. The 26-year-old is batting .400 (8-for-20) in September with a stolen base and an RBI. On the season, Peters is slashing .285/.348/.474 with 12 home runs, 53 RBI, and eight stolen bases over 138 games in an impressive rookie season for the former Savannah Banana.

  • Sam Antonacci LF | CHW

    White Sox's Sam Antonacci: Three doubles in win

    Antonacci went 3-for-4 with three doubles, two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Twins.

    Antonacci drove in both his runs with a deep double to center field in the sixth inning. The 23-year-old broke out of a mild September slump, as he was batting .125 (2-for-16) with one RBI through his first five games this month. The rookie's strong contact and on-base skills (.268 batting average and .367 OBP) have helped him maintain a solid grip on the leadoff spot in the White Sox lineup.

  • Padres' Fernando Tatis: Leadoff homer in win

    Tatis went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Yankees

    He was the first of three Padres to hit a home run in the first inning with an opposite field blast off Gerrit Cole, Tatis' 20th long ball of the season. This was his third leadoff homer this season as he continues his hot hitting since the All-Star break. The 27-year-old has a .960 OPS with 15 home runs and 36 RBI in 46 games during that span.

  • Spencer Jones CF | NYY

    Yankees' Spencer Jones: Starts scoring in loss

    Jones went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Padres.

    With the Yankees down 4-0, Jones got his team on the board with a RBI double in the eighth inning and then was able to score on an error by Adrian Morejon. Jones had a great series against San Diego, going 4-for-11 (.364) with three RBI. The 25-year-old could be set to receive consistent playing time down the stretch, as Trent Grisham is potentially out for the rest of the season with a calf strain.

  • Eli White CF | BOS

    Red Sox's Eli White: Leads offense in win

    White went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Orioles.

    White provided all of the club's offense from the ninth spot in the batting order, launching a three-run blast off Kyle Bradish in the second inning. The 32-year-old has drawn four straight starts, replacing the injured Ceddanne Rafaela (quadriceps), and is in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, tallying four extra-base hits and eight RBI during that stretch. For the year, he's slashing .246/.291/.404 with six homers, 28 RBI, 27 runs scored and five steals across 196 plate appearances with Atlanta and Boston.

  • Henry Bolte CF | ATH

    Athletics' Henry Bolte: Swipes bag Sunday

    Bolte went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Mariners.

    Bolte's single was the Athletics' lone hit of the game, and even the steal wasn't enough to manufacture a run. He has hit safely in 10 of his last 14 games, going 19-for-59 (.322) over that span. The rookie outfielder is batting .274 with a .738 OPS, eight home runs, 16 steals, 31 RBI, 43 runs scored, 13 doubles and one triple over 101 contests this season.
