  • Raynel Delgado 2B | HOU

    Astros' Raynel Delgado: Called up by Houston

    The Astros recalled Delgado from Triple-A Sugar Land on Sunday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Delgado will give the Astros some extra depth in the infield for Sunday's regular-season finale. He's appeared in 19 games for the Astros this season, going 9-for-37 (.243) with one home run and four RBI in the majors. Ronel Blanco was optioned to the minors in a corresponding move.

  • Cameron Cauley 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Cam Cauley: Called up by Texas

    The Rangers recalled Cauley from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.

    Cauley will provide the Rangers with infield depth for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Twins, with catcher Logan O'Hoppe being optioned in a corresponding move. Cauley has appeared in 34 major-league games this season and has a .626 OPS with one steal and a solo home run across 65 plate appearances.

  • Luis Arraez 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Luis Arraez: Not ruled out for pinch hitting

    Phillies interim manager Don Mattingly said that Arraez (ankle) has improved enough to potentially be used as a pinch hitter during Sunday's game versus the Rays, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    Arraez has not taken any swings since suffering a left ankle sprain Thursday, so an appearance off the bench Sunday seems unlikely. However, with the Phillies still trying to lock in their playoff berth, anything is on the table. Bryson Stott is playing second base for the Phillies on Sunday.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Brandon Lowe: Getting breather Sunday

    Lowe is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Tigers.

    After slugging his 35th home run of the season in Saturday's loss to the Tigers, Lowe will get some extra rest during Sunday's regular-season finale. Assuming the impending free agent doesn't appear off the bench Sunday, he'll finish with a .260/.331/.493 batting line and 96 RBI to go along with his 35 long balls.

  • JJ Wetherholt 2B | STL

    Cardinals' JJ Wetherholt: Taking seat for finale

    Wetherholt is not in the lineup for Sunday's game in Milwaukee.

    Wetherholt will grab a seat for Sunday's regular-season finale while Cesar Prieto covers second base. Assuming he does not appear off the bench Sunday, Wetherholt will finish his rookie season with a .242/.339/.365 batting line, 17 home runs, 14 stolen bases and a 64:104 BB:K.

  • Rays' Richie Palacios: Drives in four in rout

    Palacios went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and four RBI in Saturday's 12-1 win over the Phillies.

    Palacios drove in runs in three separate trips to the plate, highlighted by a two-run single in the sixth inning. The 29-year-old has been swinging a hot bat in September, hitting .306 with five homers and 18 RBI while also swiping six bags. With one game left in the regular season, he's slashing .238/.333/.378 with 10 home runs, 57 RBI, 51 runs scored and 17 steals across a career-high 395 plate appearances.

  • Michael Arroyo 2B | SEA

    Mariners' Michael Arroyo: Raps out three hits

    Arroyo went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Angels.

    This is Arroyo's second multi-hit effort in a row and his fourth overall. The 21-year-old is now batting .353 over 14 games in the majors, adding one home run, two stolen bases, four RBI and five runs scored. Arroyo's plate discipline is already evident -- he has a 5:6 BB:K, and that should help him as he tries to make a full-time adjustment to the majors moving forward.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Crushes go-ahead homer Saturday

    Turang went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run during the Brewers' 3-2 win over the Cardinals on Saturday.

    Turang gave the Brewers the lead for good in the fifth inning with a 421-foot, two-run homer to center field. It was the 21st home run of the season for the second baseman, and he's one RBI away from reaching 100 for the first time in his major-league career. Over his last five games, Turang has gone 8-for-21 with six RBI and five extra-base hits (including two homers).

  • Hao Yu Lee 2B | DET

    Tigers' Hao-Yu Lee: Reaches four times in win

    Lee went 2-for-3 with two walks, a double and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Pirates.

    Lee continued his strong recent stretch of a play with another multi-hit performance. Over his last eight games, the rookie infielder is batting .371 with a home run, four runs scored and four RBI. Lee will get one more chance to add to his stats if he's in the lineup Sunday before turning his attention toward 2027. The 23-year-old has shown plenty of promise and figures to be a key part of Detroit's future plans.

  • Nicky Lopez 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Nicky Lopez: Leaves Saturday's game

    Lopez (ankle/heel) was removed from Saturday's game against the Twins, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

    Per Wilson, Lopez tweaked his left ankle/heel while trying to beat out a bunt at the top of the third inning, and he initially stayed in defensively before being replaced by Cody Freeman in the fourth. The Rangers should have an update on Lopez's status for Sunday's game once the veteran infielder undergoes more tests.
