  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Idle Sunday

    Schmitt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

    Schmitt will take a seat to close out the season after he had started each of the previous three games. Christian Koss will fill in for Schmitt at the keystone and will bat eighth.

  • Edmundo Sosa 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Edmundo Sosa: Moving back to reserve role

    Sosa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Sosa had started at shortstop each of the last four games, but he'll shift back into a utility role for the regular-season finale and for the Phillies' playoff run. Trea Turner (hamstring) will reclaim the shortstop job after being activated from the 10-day injured list.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: On bench Sunday

    Edman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Seattle.

    Edman missed back-to-back games with an ankle injury before going 0-for-5 on Saturday. The 30-year-old will get a day off Sunday for Game 162, leaving second base duties to Hyeseong Kim.

  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Cracks three-run homer in win

    Schmitt went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rockies.

    Schmitt put the Giants on the board and gave them a 3-2 lead with his long shot off Kyle Freeland in the third inning. It was Schmitt's 12th home run on the season, which is more than he tallied in the two years prior combined (11). He has a .707 OPS with nine runs, three homers and nine RBI in 78 plate appearances since Sept. 1.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Back in action Saturday

    Edman (ankle) will serve as the Dodgers' designated hitter and bat leadoff against the Mariners on Saturday.

    Ankle soreness has kept Edman from playing in the Dodgers' last two games, but a few days of rest now have the 30-year-old ready to return to the starting nine. In 10 games since returning from the injured list, he's gone 9-for-38 (.237) with a homer, five RBI and six runs scored.

  • Will Wagner 2B | SD

    Padres' Will Wagner: Rejoins Padres

    The Padres recalled Wagner from the Arizona Complex League on Saturday.

    Wagner was sent to the Padres' facility in Arizona following Xander Bogaerts' return from the injured list Tuesday, but the former will now be brought back onto the big-league roster to replace Ramon Laureano (finger). Wagner has slashed .222/.319/.278 across 145 plate appearances between the Blue Jays and Padres this season and will likely come off the bench most days while in San Diego.

  • Nick Yorke 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Nick Yorke: Idle Saturday

    Yorke isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Atlanta.

    Yorke will catch a breather Saturday after going 2-for-4 and scoring a run during Friday's victory. Spencer Horwitz will shift to second base while Yorke is on the bench, opening up first base for Rafael Flores.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: On bench Saturday

    Marte is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres.

    Marte will get a breather for the Diamondbacks' penultimate game of the season. The star second baseman has a hit in seven straight games, going 12-for-30 (.400) with a pair of homers during that stretch. Connor Kaiser will fill in at second base.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Homers early in loss

    Marte went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.

    Marte extended his hitting streak to seven games, a span in which he has gone 12-for-30 (.400) with two homers and five RBI. The second baseman has 27 long balls this season, including four across 22 games in September. Overall, he's added a .283/.376/.512 slash line with 71 RBI, 86 runs scored, four stolen bases and 28 doubles through 125 contests.

  • Nick Gonzales 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Two hits in win

    Gonzales went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored Friday against Atlanta.

    Gonzales delivered an RBI single in the second inning as part of a three-run rally for Pittsburgh. He's had a quiet September, managing only 17 hits across 83 at-bats (.205) with seven RBI and seven runs scored in 21 games. Gonzales has just an 83 wRC+ across 400 plate appearances for the season, but he should be in the mix for regular playing time in Pittsburgh to begin 2026.
