  • 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.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Resting for regular-season finale

    Torres is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

    With the Tigers clinching a playoff spot Saturday, manager A.J. Hinch will rest several key regulars in the regular-season finale in advance of the wild-card round. Along with Torres, Dillon Dingler, Spencer Torkelson, and Riley Greene will all sit out Sunday.

  • Jazz Chisholm 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Out with sore forearm

    Chisholm (forearm) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    The AL East crown is still up for grabs, but Chisholm won't be in the lineup after being hit in the left forearm by a pitch in the fifth inning of Saturday's 6-1 win. X-rays were negative, however, and Chisholm said he considers himself available off the bench Sunday even while he's still dealing with some swelling and soreness, per Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News. With 31 homers and 31 steals on the campaign, Chisholm is one of seven players to join the 30-30 club this season.

  • Andres Gimenez 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Sitting for regular-season finale

    Gimenez is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

    Ernie Clement will start at shortstop while Davis Schneider mans second base with lefty Ian Seymour toeing the rubber for Tampa Bay in the regular-season finale. Gimenez is slashing a woeful .172/.229/.234 in September, but he has nonetheless maintained a regular role against right-handed pitching to close out the campaign.

  • 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.

  • Brice Matthews 2B | HOU

    Astros' Brice Matthews: Back in big leagues

    Matthews was called up from Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Matthews will return to the major-league roster after being sent down Aug. 26, batting .209 with four home runs, 17 RBI, 12 runs scored and 11 stolen bases over 24 games following his demotion. Matthews will replace Jake Meyers (calf) with the big-league club after Meyers was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

  • 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.

  • Marcus Semien 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Rangers transferred Semien (foot) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.

    Semien has already been ruled out for the 2025 season due to a fractured third metatarsal and a Lisfranc sprain in his left foot. His move to the 60-day IL will simply act as a way to clear space on the 40-man roster for Dom Hamel, who was claimed off waivers from the Orioles on Saturday.
