The Marlins recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

De Los Santos has spent the vast majority of the season at Jacksonville, where he owns a .283/.347/.496 slash line with 19 homers, 66 RBI, 49 runs and 18 steals through 401 plate appearances. He'll now rejoin the parent club to give the Marlins extra flexibility at first base while Kyle Stowers (hamstring) is on the injured list. Logan Driscoll was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Steer (wrist) may not return before the end of the season, Patrick Brown of MLB.com reports.

Steer had a follow-up visit with an orthopedic surgeon Friday. He has not yet been recommended for surgery, and the preferred path going forward is to avoid that if possible. "It still obviously is a problem," Steer said Friday. "I'm just trying to do everything I can to let the body heal, and then see what we've got in a couple of weeks." Steer is focusing on lower-body work for now, but given where the Reds sit in the standings and their chances of making the playoffs, the most prudent course of action is to not rush him back.

X-rays on Toglia's dislocated right shoulder came back negative, Patrick Brown of MLB.com reports.

Toglia was removed from Friday's loss to the Diamondbacks after extending to make a diving catch in the first inning. The outfielder/first baseman is "optimistic" about his prognosis, while manager Terry Francona said the injury looked worse than it was. "They put it back in, and there's some thought that he might be OK," Francona said. The team's optimism makes the injury more of a day-to-day thing, at least for now. Toglia was replaced in left field by TJ Friedl.

Busch went 2-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.

Busch recorded his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 9 as he showed a bit of a spark amid what's been a slow stretch at the plate lately. Across his previous eight games before Friday, the first baseman was batting just .161 with a home run and eight strikeouts. Overall, Busch is now slashing .244/.350/.390 with 15 homers, 54 runs scored, 64 RBI and two steals in 127 contests, and he should remain a lineup regular moving forward, at least against righties.

France went 1-for-1 with two walks, a two-run home run and a sacrifice fly in Friday's 6-2 win over the Twins.

The veteran first baseman started and ended the scoring Friday with a two-run homer during the opening frame and a sac fly in the fifth. After a few down seasons, France has gotten back on track at the plate in 2026 with 18 home runs and a .293/.353/.521 slash line through 102 games. He's started at first base in 36 of San Diego's past 37 games.

Fernandez went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.

Fernandez has now started at third base in four consecutive games while Nolan Arenado is limited to serving as the designated hitter. Fernandez has gone 5-for-13 over those games, so he could end up hitting his way into a more permanent spot in the infield. For the year, he's batting .264 with a .672 OPS, three home runs, eight steals, 16 RBI, 25 runs scored and nine doubles over 193 plate appearances.

Tawa went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.

Tawa recorded his fourth multi-hit effort over his last nine games. He has been productive at the plate in August, batting .288 (21-for-73) this month while adding nine RBI and five steals over his last 19 contests. Overall, he's hitting .240 with a .687 OPS, seven home runs, seven steals, 30 RBI, 24 runs scored and 10 doubles across 72 games.

Toglia was removed from Friday's game against the Diamondbacks with a dislocated right shoulder, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Toglia dislocated his shoulder while making a diving catch in the first inning. The 28-year-old has been getting regular playing time since the Reds called him up from Triple-A last week, but he could now be facing a trip to the injured list.

Devers went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run during the Giants' 6-4 loss to the Red Sox on Friday.

Friday night was Devers' return to Fenway Park and his first appearance in Boston since being traded to the Giants in June of 2025. He received a mix of boos and applause in his first plate appearance, but he silenced the Fenway faithful in the fourth, when he struck a towering long ball off Sonny Gray to center field to reduce the Giants' deficit to 5-4. It was the 26th home run of the season for Devers, who is inching closer to reaching the 30-homer mark for a second consecutive year and for the fifth time in his major-league career. On the season, he has a .796 OPS with 70 RBI across 542 plate appearance.

Burleson is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest in Philadelphia.

The left-handed hitter had started each of the previous 15 games, so he's earned a day of rest as the Phillies send southpaw Jesus Luzardo to the bump. Blaze Jordan will slide over to first base in place of Burleson, and Jose Fermin will cover third base for the Cardinals.
