Saggese went 3-for-4 with a steal, an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.

Saggese notched a base hit in each of his first three at-bats, though the exit velocity did not top 80 mph on any of his knocks. He's been making good contact in August with a .300 batting average in 15 games and figures to see extended playing time in the short term with Brendan Donovan (groin) on the injured list while Nolan Gorman mans third base in the absence of Nolan Arenado (shoulder).

Albies went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 11-10 win over the White Sox.

Albies racked up at least three hits for the fourth time this year, and the steal was his 12th of the season. The second baseman has been a massive disappointment at the plate -- he has a .634 OPS in 2025 -- but he's at least fared slightly better over the past month of action. Over his last 118 at-bats (31 games), Albies is hitting .263 with three long balls, five doubles, 21 RBI and five pilfers.

Castro went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Brewers.

Castro has been scuffling a bit since joining the Cubs at the trade deadline, but he delivered a key blast to help lead Chicago to a 6-4 win in the first game Tuesday. It was the utility man's first home run with his new team and 11th overall this season. Castro is now batting .150 across 12 games in a Cubs' uniform, though he has at least provided defensive versatility, and his big homer could get him going at the plate.

Torres went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Tuesday's 1-0, 10-inning win over the Astros.

Torres was the only player in the game to record multiple hits, but it was his walk that served as the key play in the pitchers' duel. The infielder drew a bases-loaded free pass in the bottom of the 10th inning to bring home a run and walk off the Astros. Torres has shown an improved eye at the plate this season, as his walk rate is a touch over 13 percent after sitting around 10 percent each of the last two years in New York. He's been a solid No. 2 hitter for a surging Detroit offense in his first season with the Tigers.

Stott went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 6-4 win over Seattle.

Stott clubbed his eighth homer of the year and his first since July 23 versus Boston. The speedy infielder hasn't led off for the Phillies since early June, but he's finally beginning to gain some momentum in August as he tries to climb his way back up the batting order. Through his first 43 at-bats of the month, Stott is hitting .326 with four doubles, eight RBI, nine runs scored and four steals.

Cronenworth is not in the Padres' lineup versus the Giants on Tuesday.

Cronenworth has missed just one game in 2025 that he has been healthy for. The last game the second baseman did not start was July 13, but he still entered off the bench for a plate appearance. With the left-handed bat on the bench Tuesday, Jose Iglesias has the start at second base and is batting eighth.

Garcia is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Mets.

The Mets are sending lefty David Peterson to the hill, and the left-handed-hitting Garcia will cede second base to Paul DeJong. It's the second straight and fifth time over the last seven games versus southpaws that Garcia has been held out of the starting lineup.

Anderson is hitting .308 with two home runs in six games since getting promoted to Triple-A Toledo on Aug. 11.

Anderson has had a breakout year and slashed .306/.358/.499 with 14 home runs and a 14.6 percent strikeout rate in 90 games for Double-A Erie prior to his promotion. He will always be a hit-over-power player, but Anderson has hit for enough power this year to give himself a chance to make it as an everyday second baseman. If Gleyber Torres leaves in free agency this offseason, Anderson and fellow prospect Hao-Yu Lee could earn playing time at second base in 2026.

Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 win over San Diego.

Schmitt hit a double to left field in the first inning before coming around to score one of the Giants' four runs in the frame. The 26-year-old infielder returned to action Monday after missing two straight games due to a right forearm contusion. Over 12 games this month, he's slashing .283/.353/.500 with seven RBI, six runs scored, four doubles and two home runs across 51 plate appearances. Overall, he has posted a .251/.326/.407 slash line with 24 RBI, 21 runs scored, 10 doubles and seven homers across 222 plate appearances this season.

Hoerner is out of the lineup for the opening game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Brewers.

After double-play partner Dansby Swanson received a rare rest day in Monday's 7-0 loss to Milwaukee, Hoerner will take a seat for the first game of the day and the second contest of a five-game set with the NL Central leaders. Willi Castro will step in at second base in place of Hoerner, who had started in every game dating back to April 8.
