Bichette is receiving a second opinion on his injured left knee from Dr. Dan Cooper in Dallas on Monday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The initial diagnosis on Bichette is that he's dealing with a sprained PCL, and the Blue Jays hope to have a better idea as to the shortstop's timeline for a return after his visit with a specialist Monday. Bichette plans to rejoin the Blue Jays in Tampa Bay this week, but it seems unlikely he'll be activated from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Wednesday. With Bichette sidelined, Andres Gimenez has handled shortstop in each of Toronto's last three games.

Volpe (shoulder) is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Twins on Monday.

Volpe will miss a sixth consecutive game due to a partially torn left labrum. He received a cortisone shot this past Wednesday to help with the healing, but he has not recovered enough to return to the lineup for Monday's series opener but could be available off the bench, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. Jose Caballero will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Volpe's absence.

Meidroth went 1-for-3 with a solo home run against the Guardians on Sunday.

Meidroth delivered his fifth home run of the season in the fifth inning to tie the game at 2-2. It was also his second long ball in 26 games since returning from the injured list, and he's maintained a .330 average with eight RBI, 13 runs scored and two stolen bases in that span.

Volpe (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Volpe will stick on the bench for a fifth straight game while he continues to recover from the cortisone shot he received Wednesday to aid the healing of his partially torn left labrum. Even if the injection yields the desired effect and Volpe is deemed ready to play during the upcoming week, it's unclear if he would take back an everyday role at shortstop. Volpe's job security had been slipping prior to his recent shutdown; he's posted a poor .188/.244/.412 slash line since the All-Star break and has also endured some hiccups on the defensive end.

Witt went 2-for-5 with a triple, a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Phillies.

Witt led off the Royals' four-run sixth inning with his sixth triple of the season before extending the lead to 9-3 with an opposite-field shot off Max Lazar, his 22nd homer this year. Witt had gone six games without an extra-base hit prior to Sunday, going just 4-for-22 (.182) in that span. Overall, he's slashing .292/.350/.501 with 79 RBI, 94 runs scored and 36 steals through 631 plate appearances this season.

Neto (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Neto sustained a hand injury while taking a swing Thursday and will sit Sunday for the third consecutive game. The Angels have a team day off Monday, so the shortstop will have an extra day to recover before Tuesday's series opener in Milwaukee. Denzer Guzman will pick up another start at shortstop for the Halos.

Pena went 1-for-5 with two RBI on Saturday against Atlanta.

Pena delivered a two-RBI double in the second inning to put the Astros up 3-0. It was his fourth double and fifth extra-base hit across 11 games in September. He's also driven in six, scored four runs and stolen a base in that span.

Crawford went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Angels.

Crawford connected in the fourth inning for his 10th homer of the season, though this was his first since Aug. 3 versus the Rangers. The shortstop has four multi-hit efforts over his last seven games, going 9-for-25 (.360) in that span. For the season, he's at a .264/.353/.362 slash line with 51 RBI, 64 runs scored, eight stolen bases and 22 doubles across 145 contests.

Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-4 loss to Toronto.

Henderson is still mired in quite the cold spell so far in September, batting .143 (5-for-35) with a lone RBI in his first 10 games of the month. The star shortstop has taken a step back this season following an outstanding 2024 regular season, when posted a career-best .893 OPS over 159 outings, but he still has a realistic shot at recording his second straight 20-homer, 20-steal campaign. Henderson is hitting .270 with 16 long balls, 62 RBI, 81 runs scored and 23 pilfers across 525 at-bats.

The Angels selected Guzman's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

Guzman has played both shortstop and third base in the minors this season and has slashed .247/.343/.769 with 17 home runs, 74 RBI and 14 stolen bases across 129 games between Double-A and Triple-A. Zach Neto (hand) remains out of the Angels' lineup Saturday, so Guzman is starting at shortstop and batting seventh for what will be his MLB debut, per Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Los Angeles also promoted infielder Christian Moore from the minors Saturday while designating infielder Scott Kingery for assignment. Outfielder Matthew Lugo was also optioned to Salt Lake in a move that helped make room on the 26-man roster for Guzman and Moore.
