Yorke will start in right field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Yorke will stick in the lineup for the fifth straight contest and for the seventh time in eight games. He's yet to take advantage of receiving ample playing time in September, as he's slashing just .167/.189/.222 with no home runs, one stolen base, five RBI and one run in 37 plate appearances since being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis at the start of the month.

Horwitz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

The left-handed-hitting Horwitz will hit the bench for the series finale while the Cubs send southpaw Matthew Boyd to the bump. Rafael Flores will step in for Horwitz on Wednesday to make his first MLB start.

Steer (neck) will start at first base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game versus the Cardinals.

Steer had been scheduled to start Monday's game but was scratched due to neck spasms. However, he had a chiropractic adjustment Tuesday and is ready to play in Wednesday's series finale. Steer has been losing reps to Sal Stewart at first base, but Stewart will handle third base in Wednesday's contest.

The Cardinals will place Contreras (biceps) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right biceps strain, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

The strain is considered mild, but it is bad enough to end the first baseman's season with less than two weeks remaining. Contreras will finish 2025 with a .257/.344/.447 batting line, 20 home runs and 80 RBI over 135 games. Alec Burleson will take over as the team's everyday first baseman down the stretch, opening up more playing time in the outfield for Jordan Walker and others.

Busch went 3-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run, two doubles and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Pirates.

Busch took Pittsburgh ace Paul Skenes deep to lead off the game, and he added two doubles to round out an excellent fantasy performance. The Chicago first baseman has now homered in consecutive games and three times in his last four contests. He's up to 29 long balls for the season, which is a new career best and tied for the team lead with Pete Crow-Armstrong.

Olson went 3-for-10 with a double, a triple, a home run, two runs scored and four RBI in Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Nationals.

After launching a solo shot off Jake Irvin in the matinee, Olson played hero in the top of the 10th inning in the nightcap with a bases-loaded triple. The first baseman has been on an absolute tear of late, batting .478 (11-for-23) over his last five games with eight of those hits going for extra bases (three doubles, a triple and four homers). On the year, he's up to 27 homers and 91 RBI in 152 contests, giving him a shot at his fifth career 30-HR campaign and fourth career 100-RBI season.

Hernandez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 9-6 loss to the Phillies.

Hernandez continues to fill a versatile role for the Dodgers, but he hasn't hit well enough to stay in the lineup regularly since returning from an elbow injury. He's gone just 7-for-39 (.179) over 14 games since his return Aug. 26. The utility player has a .192/.248/.346 slash line with nine homers, 30 RBI, 26 runs scored and five doubles across 86 contests this season.

Bauers isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Bauers will take a seat Tuesday after making four consecutive starts at first base, during which he went 2-for-11 with an RBI and two runs scored. Andrew Vaughn will replace him in the starting nine and bat sixth.

Reds manager Terry Francona said Tuesday that Steer (neck) "feels great" after getting a chiropractic adjustment, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Steer was scratched from Monday's lineup in St. Louis due to neck spasms and remains out of the lineup Tuesday, but it sounds like he could be available off the bench. Sal Stewart is receiving a fourth straight start at first base Tuesday.

Contreras (biceps) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Reds.

Contreras was held out of Sunday's game in Milwaukee due to right biceps tightness and had to be pulled from Monday's contest against the Reds when it flared up on him. To this point, he is considered day-to-day. Alec Burleson will play first base for the Cardinals on Tuesday.
