  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Provides lone run in loss

    Schmitt went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-1 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Schmitt was the only Giant to hit safely in this game, which included his third-inning solo shot for the team's lone run. He had gone cold over the weekend, going 0-for-10 with two walks in three games against the Dodgers. Schmitt is up to 11 homers this year while adding 37 RBI, 30 runs scored, 14 doubles and a .240/.308/.406 slash line across 86 contests. He has not attempted a stolen base in 2025.

  • Dylan Moore 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Dylan Moore: Nabs steal in loss

    Moore went 1-for-2 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Astros.

    Moore is now 6-for-19 with two home runs and two steals over 12 games with the Rangers. He continues to occupy a part-time role as a utility player in a reserve role. For the season, he's logged 14 steals, 11 homers, 25 RBI, 34 runs scored and a .204/.266/.384 slash line across 100 games between Texas and Seattle.

  • Edmundo Sosa 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Edmundo Sosa: Could return Tuesday

    Sosa (groin) will complete a workout Monday with the hope of returning to the starting lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Sosa has remained sidelined since Friday due to groin soreness, but he's on the brink of a return. The team will have a better idea on whether he'll be back in the starting nine for Tuesday's matchup once Sosa completes his Monday workout.

  • Jack Winkler 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Jack Winkler: Returned to minors

    The Marlins optioned Winkler to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

    Winkler appeared in three games since his promotion Sept. 5, going 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles. He'll head back to the minors to make room for the returns of Connor Norby (quadriceps), Graham Pauley (oblique) and Dane Myers (oblique) from the injured list and Tyler Phillips (personal) from the paternity list.

  • Edmundo Sosa 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Edmundo Sosa: Remains on bench

    Sosa (groin) is not in the starting lineup Monday versus the Dodgers, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Sosa will remain on the bench for a third contest in a row while dealing with right groin tightness. Bryson Stott will draw another start at shortstop while Weston Wilson handles second base against Los Angeles.

  • Marcus Semien 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: Takes batting practice Monday

    Semien (foot) was spotted taking batting practice on the field Monday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    The team has yet to offer up a timeline for Semien's return after he went down with a broken left foot in late August, but it's a positive sign that he's progressed to taking on-field BP. Texas is a few games back from a wild-card spot, so the club would certainly welcome Semien back into the fold down the stretch if he's cleared for game action.

  • Brett Wisely 2B | ATL

    Giants' Brett Wisely: DFA'd by San Francisco

    The Giants designated Wisely for assignment Monday.

    The move makes room on the Giants' 40-man roster for Bryce Eldridge, who will make his major-league debut against the Diamondbacks on Monday. Wisely has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .253/.332/.387 with 12 steals, 17 doubles, seven home runs and 42 RBI in 342 plate appearances.

  • Mauricio Dubon 2B | HOU

    Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Back on bench Monday

    Dubon is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

    Dubon had started in three of the last four games and five of the past seven contests, but he'll likely be in line for a reduction in playing time over the final two weeks of the regular season now that Houston has most of its key position players available. He filled in for a banged-up Jose Altuve (foot) at the keystone in Sunday's 8-3 loss to Atlanta, but Altuve will be back in the lineup Monday.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Sitting Monday

    Edman is not in the Dodgers' starting lineup against the Phillies on Monday, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

    Edman will take a seat after going 2-for-5 with two runs and two RBI during the Dodgers' 10-2 win over the Giants on Sunday. Miguel Rojas will start at second base and bat sixth while Alex Call, Andy Pages and Teoscar Hernandez man the outfield from left to right.

  • Cody Freeman 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Cody Freeman: Idle for series opener

    Freeman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

    After going 7-for-25 (.280 average) with two doubles and three RBI while starting in each of the last seven games, Freeman will get a breather for the series opener in Houston. Dylan Moore will get the nod at second base at Freeman's expense.
