Kwan went 2-for-5 in Thursday's 6-3 loss to Toronto.

Kwan logged a sixth multi-hit performance over the last 10 games, during which he's gone 17-for-43 (.395) with nine runs scored. He's had a remarkable run in the second half after entering the All-Star break with a .225 batting average. Since the break, Kwan is batting .366 over 41 contests.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Blue Jays.

Adell, who was acquired by the Guardians at the trade deadline, has been helpful for a team that needed offense. He owns a .784 OPS with four home runs, seven doubles and 21 RBI across 26 games with Cleveland. Adell's never been known for his on-base skills, but his .336 OBP and 10.0 percent walk rate for the Guardians far outpace his career norms.

Hernandez went 2-for-3 with a double, two walks and two RBI in a 3-2 victory versus St. Louis on Thursday.

Hernandez and Tommy Edman combined for all six of Los Angeles' hits in the dramatic victory. The final knock of the night was Hernandez's one-out double off Cardinals closer Riley O'Brien to plate the tying and winning runs. It's been a pretty rough season overall for Hernandez, as his .723 OPS is on pace to be the lowest of his career. However, he may be starting to come around at the dish -- over his past eight contests, Hernandez is batting .387 (12-for-31) with one home run, three runs, four RBI and one stolen base.

Rodriguez went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk, a run, two RBI and three stolen bases in a loss to the Athletics on Thursday.

Rodriguez plated Seattle's first run with a double in the first inning and added another RBI on a fielder's choice groundout in the sixth. However, his most impactful production from a fantasy perspective was the three stolen bases he tallied over the course of the contest. The trio of thefts pushed Rodriguez up to 20 steals this season -- a mark he's now reached in each of his first five MLB campaigns. Per MLB, he's the first player in league history to log both 20 stolen bases and 20 homers in five consecutive seasons to begin a career.

The Reds signed Fletcher to a minor-league contract Thursday.

Fletcher has been assigned to Triple-A Louisville. The 29-year-old has spent most of the 2026 campaign in the Pirates' organization, where he slashed .301/.386/.485 with eight home runs, 32 RBI, 42 runs scored, three stolen bases and a 26:34 BB:K across 237 plate appearances with Triple-A Indianapolis before being released last month.

Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Brewers.

Crow-Armstrong went deep against Milwaukee starter Logan Henderson with a runner on in the third inning, and it was all the offense the Cubs would need to secure a series split with their division rivals. The young outfielder came into the night with just a .322 OPS against the Brewers this year with no home runs, but he's been dynamite overall. Crow-Armstrong is now one long ball shy of his first career 40-homer campaign, and he's tacked on 32 stolen bases as well to put a 40-40 season well within reach.

The Mariners recalled Davis (hamstring) from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday and placed him on the 60-day injured list.

Davis hasn't played in a game at Tacoma since late May while recovering from a strained left hamstring. His move to the 60-day IL won't affect his return timeline, but it will free up a roster spot for Stuart Fairchild, who was selected to the active roster in a corresponding move. It's unknown how far away Davis is from returning.

The Mariners placed Robles on the family medical emergency list Thursday.

Robles will miss most, if not all, of the Mariners' four-game series against the A's while he tends to more important matters. Stuart Fairchild will come up from Triple-A Tacoma to fill the void in Seattle's outfield corps.

The Mariners selected Fairchild's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday.

Fairchild will return to the big leagues to replenish the Mariners' outfield depth as Victor Robles moves to the family medical emergency list. Fairchild has logged just three hits in 19 at-bats in the majors this season and isn't likely to make much of an impact with Seattle. Brennen Davis (hamstring) was placed on the 60-day IL to open up a 40-man roster spot.

Clarke isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.

Clarke will get a day off after going 1-for-6 with a walk and a run scored in his first two games back from the injured list. Zack Gelof, Henry Bolte and Lawrence Butler will start across the outfield for the A's while Clarke is on the bench.
