  • Evan White 1B | LAA

    Mariners' Evan White: Smacks seventh homer

    White went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Monday's 6-1 win over the Astros.

    White hit his seventh homer of the year off Astros starter Lance McCullers in the seventh inning. That blast gave the Mariners some extra breathing room in what had been a low-scoring battle to that point. The first baseman has produced 24 RBI, 17 runs scored and a stolen base in 48 games this year.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Logs three extra-base hits

    Guerrero went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a triple, a walk and three RBI in Monday's 11-5 win over the Yankees

    Guerrero belted a two-run double in the bottom of the third and added another run-scoring two-base hit an inning later. The third-baseman also had a triple, giving him seven total bases in the tilt. The 21-year-old has 28 RBI to go along with a .249/.324/.434 slash line on the campaign.

  • Nate Lowe 1B | CLE

    Rays' Nate Lowe: Homers for go-ahead run

    Lowe went 1-for-3 with a solo homer, a walk and two runs scored in Monday's 2-1 win over the Mets.

    Lowe scored in the second inning on a Manuel Margot sacrifice fly before taking Jacob deGrom deep with a solo blast in the fourth. The lefty slugger bumped his season OPS up to .913 with four homers this season.

  • Josh Naylor 1B | SEA

    Indians' Josh Naylor: Leaves with injury

    Naylor left Monday's game against the White Sox after jamming his leg into second base on a slide, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

    Naylor was having an impressive night at the dish prior to suffering the injury, going 3-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored. He was replaced by Oscar Mercado in left field and will be considered day-to-day until he's examined further.

  • Yandy Diaz DH | TB

    Rays' Yandy Diaz: Advancing to live batting practice

    Diaz (hamstring) felt good following a pair of batting practice sessions in the last two days and will advance to live batting practice soon, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Diaz has missed all of September with a strained right hamstring. Whether or not he returns before the playoffs remains to be seen, but it appears as though he has a chance to do so.

  • Luke Voit 1B | NYM

    Yankees' Luke Voit: Extends homer lead

    Voit went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to Boston.

    The Yankees managed only three base knocks as a team in the loss, but Voit managed to keep his six-game hitting streak intact with a solo shot in the ninth inning. Over the six-game stretch, the slugger has gone 10-for-26 with five homers and 12 RBI. His 21 long balls this season lead the majors; Jose Abreu ranks second with 18.

  • Luke Voit 1B | NYM

    Yankees' Luke Voit: Dealing with foot issue

    Voit has been managing foot pain for some time, but it has not limited him at the plate, Brendan Kuty of NJ Advance Media reports.

    The Yankees and Voit have been vague about the exact nature of the condition, simply referring to it as "foot stuff." While manager Aaron Boone explained that the issue causes Voit pain, he also stated "it's not something that's limiting." Voit's performance at the plate validates that assessment, as he is slashing .327/.345/.750 with seven home runs and 20 RBI over his past 12 games.

  • Rowdy Tellez 1B | ATL

    Blue Jays' Rowdy Tellez: Hitting in batting cage

    Tellez (knee) has progressed to taking swings in the batting cage, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    The 25-year-old was given a pessimistic outlook after suffering a tendon injury Sept. 8, but his return to baseball activities is a solid sign for his progression. Tellez will still have a difficult time returning before the end of the regular season with only seven games remaining.

  • Yuli Gurriel DH | SD

    Astros' Yuli Gurriel: Rejoins Sunday's lineup

    Gurriel (hand) is starting at first base and batting fifth Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    The veteran first baseman was absent from Saturday's starting nine due to a hand issue, but he's back in action after missing one game. Gurriel has struggled through 17 games in September with a .167/.175/.250 slash line and one home run in 60 at-bats.

  • Ty France 1B | SD

    Mariners' Ty France: Two hits versus former team

    France went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Padres.

    A pair of ex-Padres helped lead Seattle to the victory column Saturday, as trade-deadline pickups France and Luis Torrens (two hits, two RBI) combined for half of the Mariners' hit total. Since being acquired from San Diego on Aug. 30, France has thrived as an everyday player for Seattle, slashing .309/.377/.491 over 15 games with his new team.
