Alonso went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Marlins.

He got the Mets on the board by taking Pablo Lopez deep in the fourth inning, but the Mets were already in a 4-0 hole at that point. Alonso has homered in three straight games and five of the last seven, driving in an incredible 16 runs during that power surge. In addition to now holding the franchise's single-season record for RBI at 131, the 27-year-old has recorded his second career campaign with at least 40 home runs.

Solano (eye) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Pirates.

Solano has not played since Sept. 23 due to an eye infection. Kyle Farmer is starting at designated hitter while Jose Barrero enters the lineup at shortstop.

Casas went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and three runs scored in Tuesday's 13-9 victory over the Orioles.

Casas launched a two-run homer off Kyle Bradish in the bottom of the second frame before he walked and came around to score in the following frame. He added two more base knocks while coming around to score again later in the contest. The home run was his fifth of the season and third in his last six games. Over that stretch, Casas has batted .389 with three home runs, six RBI and seven runs. The 22-year-old is now batting .179 with five homers, 10 RBI, 10 runs and a stolen base over his fist 56 career at-bats in 20 games.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Brewers.

Goldschmidt drove in a run on a sacrifice fly in the first frame before ripping an RBI single off Trevor Gott in the top of the fifth and stealing second base. He later added a double in the seventh inning, his 41st two-bagger of the year. Goldschmidt came into Tuesday's contest in a 4-for-27 cold spell over his previous seven games, but he still owns a .318 average with 35 homers, 114 RBI, 103 runs and seven stolen bases over 146 games in 2022.

Tellez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Cardinals.

Tellez took Miles Mikolas deep for a solo shot in the bottom of the sixth frame, scoring the first run for the Brewers. The homer was his 34th of the year and second in three games. The first baseman has struggled to produce a consistent batting average, but he has compiled six home runs, 11 RBI and 10 runs scored over his last 14 games.

Arias went 1-for-3 with two walks, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in a 6-5 extra-innings loss Tuesday against Tampa Bay.

Arias had an RBI single in the fourth and walked, stole a base and scored in the eighth. It was his first stolen base in the majors after he swiped six in the minors this year. The 22-year-old was just 2-for-19 in his first two stints for Cleveland but has performed better since being recalled Sept. 25 and is 2-for-7 with three walks and three RBI in two games. With the Guardians having already clinched the division, Arias may get some playing time over the final week as the team rests its starters in advance of the postseason.

Cooper was diagnosed with a fractured left pinky finger after he exited Tuesday's game against the Mets, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Cooper went 1-for-2 before he was hit by a pitch on the left hand during the fifth inning, and he was promptly replaced by a pinch runner. The injury should bring an end to the 31-year-old's 2022 campaign with just over a week left in the regular season. He played in 119 games and posted a .261/.337/.415 slash line with nine home runs, 33 doubles, 50 RBI and 37 runs.

Dixon had his contract selected by the Padres on Tuesday.

Dixon joined the Friars on a minor-league deal in March and will join the big-league club with nine games left in the regular season. The 30-year-old had a 1.313 OPS with 13 home runs in 25 games for Triple-A El Paso and is looking to see big-league action for the first time since 2020 with Detroit.

Wade isn't starting Tuesday against the Rockies, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

After going 0-for-10 during the Giants' last series in Arizona, Wade will start Tuesday's game in the dugout. Mike Yastrzemski will move over to right field in Wade's absence, affording Austin Slater a start in center field.

Diaz (shoulder) expects to be in Wednesday's lineup against the Guardians, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

According to Topkin, manager Kevin Cash also said he expects Diaz back Wednesday. Diaz is available off the bench Tuesday while Isaac Paredes gets the start at the hot corner.
