Kim is not in the lineup for Thursday's Game 3 of the wild-card series against the Phillies.

Kim started at shortstop in the first two games of the series, going 0-for-3 with a 1:2 BB:K. Atlanta is turning to Mauricio Dubon at shortstop in place of Kim, while Mike Yastrzemski plays left field and Dominic Smith serves as the designated hitter.

Adames (elbow) has been cleared to go through his normal offseason workout routine, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Adames went down with a left (non-throwing) elbow sprain in late August, but he was ramping up workouts toward the end of the regular season and will not have any restrictions over the winter. The veteran shortstop put together a .230/.289/.424 batting line with 21 home runs over 121 games for the Giants this season.

Miller (back) will play in the Arizona Fall League, Jack Vita of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Miller underwent back surgery in June and was able to see action at Single-A Clearwater and Double-A Reading before the 2026 campaign came to a close. Vita has since reported that Miller will take part in the AFL, indicating a full recovery.

Arquette (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sept. 21.

Arquette missed the last few games of the 2026 season on the shelf. However, he managed to avoid a significant injury and will go into the offseason healthy.

Williams (wrist) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sept. 21.

Williams missed time down the stretch of the regular season at Triple-A due to a wrist issue, but he's managed to make a full recovery. He's expected to see action playing in the Arizona Fall League, per Jack Vita of the Los Angeles Times.

Southisene (wrist) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sept. 15.

Southisene picked up a wrist injury at the end of July and wasn't able to return to health before the end of the season. He spent the majority of his time in 2026 at High-A Rome, where he slashed .255/.379/.428 with four home runs, 16 RBI, nine stolen bases and 26 runs in 38 games.

Rangers president of baseball operations Chris Young said Monday that Seager could require minor offseason surgery for a bone spur in his elbow "that he's dealt with for a few months," Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

It's not a given that Seager will choose the surgical route, but if he does, the expectation is that he will be fully recovered in time for the start of spring training. Injuries limited Seager to 102 games for the second season in a row, and he regressed at the plate year-over-year, finishing with a .227/.312/.424 batting line with 20 home runs during the 2026 campaign.

Wade announced his retirement from professional baseball Monday.

Wade inked a minor-league contract with the Rangers last winter but was released in April and never signed on anywhere else. The 31-year-old will finish his career having slashed .216/.294/.284 over parts of nine major-league seasons.

Lindor went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Nationals.

Lindor extended the Mets' lead to 4-1 in the second inning with a 409-foot shot off DJ Herz, his 21st homer this season and the 300th of his career. It's a nice way to wrap up what was otherwise a disappointing season for Lindor. He'd gone 14 games without a homer prior to Sunday, going 8-for-55 (.145) in that span. Overall, Lindor will finish an injury-shortened campaign with a .225/.309/.423 slash line, 63 runs scored, 49 RBI and three steals across 469 plate appearances.

McGonigle went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Pirates.

The 22-year-old concludes the season slashing .278/.376/.430 with 18 home runs, 72 RBI, 97 runs scored and 12 steals across 707 plate appearances and is all but a lock for the American League Rookie of the Year Award.
