  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Four hits in Wednesday's win

    Edwards went 4-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Astros.

    The switch-hitting infielder set the table for the Marlins in a 6-4 victory, delivering his seventh multi-hit performance in 18 games since the All-Star break. Over that stretch, Edwards is slashing .342/.400/.466 with five doubles, two triples, two steals, five RBI and 14 runs, and he's two pilfers away from reaching 20 for the second straight campaign.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Receiving night off

    Garcia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.

    The left-handed-hitting Garcia will hit the bench Wednesday while southpaw Jeffrey Springs toes the rubber for the Athletics. Garcia had started each of the last six games, going 8-for-26 with a home run, a walk, five RBI and four runs.

  • Adael Amador SS | COL

    Rockies' Adael Amador: Recalled, starting Wednesday

    The Rockies recalled Amador from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

    Amador will join the 26-man active roster as a replacement for Thairo Estrada (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day injured list. The Rockies will throw Amador into the lineup for Wednesday's series finale versus the Blue Jays, as he'll take over Estrada's usual spot at second base, per Thomas Harding of MLB.com. The 22-year-old could see regular reps at the keystone while Estrada is out, but Amador has managed just a .180/.253/.256 batting line over 148 career plate appearances at the major-league level.

  • Thairo Estrada 2B | COL

    Rockies' Thairo Estrada: Shut down with hamstring strain

    The Rockies placed Estrada on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to a right hamstring strain.

    Estrada will head to the IL for the third time this season, after he was previously shut down due to a fractured right wrist and a sprained right thumb. The infielder suffered his latest injury while running out a grounder in Tuesday's 10-4 loss to the Blue Jays and was spotted using crutches to move about the clubhouse after the game, per MLB.com. Colorado recalled Adael Amador from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move, and he'll replace Estrada in the starting nine at second base in Wednesday's series finale with Toronto, according to Thomas Harding of MLB.com.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Three hits in Tuesday's loss

    Garcia went 3-for-5 with two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's loss to the A's.

    The second baseman stayed hot and helped fuel a seven-run outburst by the Nats' offense, although that paled in comparison to the 16 runs surrendered by the pitching staff. Over 15 games since the All-Star break, Garcia is slashing .298/.328/.439 with two doubles, two homers, one steal, seven RBI and eight runs.

  • Giants' Christian Koss: Notches third homer in win

    Koss went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Pirates.

    Koss drew the start at second base for the first time since being reinstated from the injured list Friday. He launched a two-run homer in the third inning, giving the Giants a 2-0 lead. The 27-year-old infielder now has three home runs on the season and is slashing .262/.300/.379 with 14 RBI, 13 runs scored and two stolen bases across 113 plate appearances.

  • Matt McLain SS | CIN

    Reds' Matt McLain: Exiting starting nine

    McLain is not in the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against the Cubs.

    McLain looks to be receiving a routine day off after starting in each of the previous 11 contests. Gavin Lux will get the nod at second base as the Reds try to complete the sweep.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Sitting again versus lefty

    Stott is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    The left-handed-hitting Stott will hit the bench for the third time in five games, with all of his absences coming against southpaws. Edmundo Sosa will step in for Stott at the keystone while the Orioles send lefty Trevor Rogers to the hill.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Pilfers bag No. 20

    Turang went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-2 win over Atlanta.

    The steal was his 20th of 2025, a mark he's reached in three straight seasons. Turang's activity on the basepaths has taken a big step back from last year, when he went 50-for-56 in stolen base attempts, but his overall production has improved. Through 108 games, he's slashing .276/.341/.383 -- career highs in all three categories -- with eight homers, 50 RBI and 65 runs.

  • Nolan Gorman 2B | STL

    Cardinals' Nolan Gorman: Launches 10th homer

    Gorman went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 12-6 loss to the Dodgers.

    Gorman's blast in the second inning tied the game at 2-2. He's hit safely in all four of his games since returning from a back injury that landed him on the injured list for a brief stay. He's up to 10 homers on the year while slashing .227/.311/.417 across 70 contests. Despite the middling power production, the infielder is trending in the right direction and has a clear path to playing time while Nolan Arenado (shoulder) is out.
