Chisholm is not in the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader versus the Orioles.

Chisholm will rest up during the first game before likely returning to the Yankees' lineup during the nightcap. It will be Jose Caballero handling second base and batting ninth during Friday's matinee.

McNeil went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a double in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Astros.

McNeil ended a 15-game power drought with his third-inning blast off Peter Lambert. It had been six games without an extra-base hit or a multi-effort for McNeil. He's now batting .267 with a .690 OPS, nine homers, 23 doubles, 59 RBI, 51 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 141 contests.

Arraez suffered a sprained left ankle during Thursday's contest against the Brewers, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Arraez suffered the injury while trying to avoid being tagged while attempting to beat out a ground ball in the bottom of the sixth inning. The team outlined that he will be further evaluated, and his status moving forward is currently up in the air. More information on his status will likely be provided following the conclusion of Thursday's game.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and a strikeout during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

Ramirez stole two bases during Thursday's win, his first bags swiped since Aug. 12 against the Nationals. The 22-year-old has recorded at least one base hit in five of his last six games. This year, Ramirez is slashing .261/.319/.406 with six homers, 32 RBI, nine stolen bases and 20 walks over 258 plate appearances.

Chisholm isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays.

Chisholm has gone 2-for-6 with two walks, a run and a steal across his first two games since returning from the injured list, and the Yankees will now give him a day to rest as they prepare to face left-hander Ian Seymour. Anthony Volpe will get the nod at second base and bat seventh.

Edwards (thumb) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Cubs.

It marks the fourth consecutive absence for Edwards, who is recovering from left thumb discomfort. It's an aggravation of an injury that caused him to miss the first couple weeks of September, so it's no guarantee Edwards will come back to play this season. Jared Serna will cover second back for the Marlins on Thursday.

Amador is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Amador has started every other game across the last seven contests for the Rockies. Prior to that, he had made seven consecutive starts. Connor Norby is handling second base, and Hunter Goodman is getting a day at designated hitter as the Rockies try to avoid the sweep.

Nunez went 1-for-2 with a walk, a run scored and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

Getting the start at shortstop and batting ninth, Nunez swiped second and third base after poking a one-out single in the seventh inning, putting himself in position to score the Nationals' final run of the night. In the process, he became the franchise's single-season steals leader with 49, passing the 47 stolen bases CJ Abrams produced in 2023. Nunez is three steals clear of the Rays' Chandler Simpson for the major-league lead, with less than a week remaining on the calendar.

Walton went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Angels.

Walton has gone 11-for-38 (.289) with four homers and 10 RBI over his last 13 games. While he's still not playing on a full-time basis, he's put together a strong finish to the campaign. The utility man is batting .269 with an .834 OPS, nine homers, 32 RBI, 36 runs scored, 14 doubles, one triple and three stolen bases over 255 plate appearances this season.

Wetherholt went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Pirates.

Wetherholt provided the Cardinals with a steady presence at the plate, reaching base four times and scoring the first run of the game off of a Alec Burleson single. The rookie has gone 6-for-20 (.300) since being activated from the injured list (wrist) on September 16. He's closing out a productive rookie campaign with a .710 OPS, 17 home runs, 14 stolen bases and 51 RBI over 136 games and providing excellent defense at second base.
