Estrada went 2-for-5 with one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Sunday's 11-10 win over the Rockies.

Estrada has five multi-hit efforts over his last 11 games, going 15-for-46 (.326) in that span. He's also logged three steals, two home runs and six RBI over those games. The second baseman continues to be one of the Giants' best hitters with a .277/.319/.423 slash line, 12 homers, 47 RBI, 61 runs scored and a career-high 22 steals over 108 contests.

Garcia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Sunday's extra-innings win over the Brewers.

He drove a Brandon Woodruff fastball out of the park to center field in the second inning, the only run the Nationals managed until they scored the game-winner in the top of the 11th. Garcia has gone yard in back-to-back games, but since rejoining the big-league roster Sept. 8 he's batting just .207 (6-for-29), and the 23-year-old's future as a starting-caliber player in the majors remains in doubt.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double, a walk and an additional run scored in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Cubs.

Marte has had a strong September, hitting safely in 12 of his 15 games. He's gone 17-for-58 (.293) this month while producing nine RBI and nine extra-base hits. The second baseman is up to a .274/.355/.483 slash line with 23 homers, 77 RBI, 89 runs scored and six stolen bases over 141 contests overall. He continues to regularly hit leadoff versus southpaws and second versus right-handed pitchers.

Gimenez went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Rangers.

Gimenez knocked an RBI single and a two-run double during Cleveland's nine-run fourth frame. He's gone 17-for-49 (.347) with seven multi-hit performances over his last 13 games. His season slash line is up to .244/.312/.385 with 43 extra-base hits and 57 RBI through 575 plate appearances.

Rosario went 3-for-4 with a triple, a double, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Mariners.

The light-hitting Rosario had a chance at a cycle but grounded out in the eighth inning. Prior to Sunday, he'd gone 7-for-26 (.269) over 12 games in September, playing in a part-time role. He's hit .255 with the Dodgers, and he's at a .263/.305/.383 slash line with six home runs, 56 RBI, 67 runs scored, 14 steals, 25 doubles and eight triples over 134 contests this season when accounting for his time with the Guardians. If the Dodgers opt to rest Mookie Betts or Miguel Rojas more often down the stretch, Rosario could see an uptick in playing time.

Kim was scratched from Sunday's lineup versus Oakland due to abdominal discomfort, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

The specifics of the injury remain unclear, and Kim is undergoing testing to determine whether the issue is internal or muscular. The second baseman should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

Kim was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Athletics for unspecified reasons.

Kim was penciled in to start at second base and bat leadoff Sunday, per usual, but the Padres released an updated lineup that excludes him. Assuming the 27-year-old is dealing with an injury, the team should provide more information in the near future. Matthew Batten will shift to the keystone while Eguy Rosario starts at third base. Jurickson Profar is now batting atop the order.

Kemp is not in the lineup Sunday versus the Padres.

Kemp will end up starting in only one game of the three-game series against the Padres. However, he did record an at-bat Sept. 15 when he did not start. A lefty started that game for the Padres, and their primary pitcher today seems to be lefty Ken Waldichuk with righty Joe Boyle as the opener. Esteury Ruiz will play in the left fielder's place.

India is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

India started all six games since he returned from the injured list last weekend, and he'll take a seat Sunday after he went 4-for-24 with two homers and five RBI. Spencer Steer will start at second base and bat leadoff for Cincinnati.

Bae is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Bae started the previous 12 games and will receive Sunday off after he posted a .217/.265/.326 slash line during that span. Liover Peguero will shift to the keystone while Alika Williams starts at shortstop against New York lefty Carlos Rodon.
