  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | SEA

    Mariners' Eugenio Suarez: Two more homers Sunday

    Suarez went 2-for-5 with a pair of homers and three total RBI in Sunday's 18-2 win over Atlanta.

    Suarez extended Seattle's lead to 11-1 with his first homer in the sixth inning before launching a 411-foot blast off position player Vidal Brujan in the ninth. Suarez has homered three times in his last two contests, giving him 45 long balls this season, four shy of his career high. The third baseman is slashing .238/.309/.550 with 109 RBI and 83 runs scored across 576 plate appearances between the Mariners and Diamondbacks this year.

  • Addison Barger SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Addison Barger: Taking seat against lefty

    Barger is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

    After starting the last three contests, Barger will hit the bench while the Yankees send southpaw Max Fried to the hill. Barger is slashing just .230/.278/.351 over 79 plate appearances versus lefties on the season.

  • Miguel Vargas 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Miguel Vargas: Could return Tuesday

    Manager Will Venable said Saturday he "wouldn't be surprised" to see Vargas (hand) be activated from the 10-day injured list during a three-game series against the Rays that starts Tuesday.

    Vargas has been on the shelf since Aug. 29 due to a sprained left hand he sustained during a collision with a baserunner while playing first base. According to Venable, Vargas' rehab has been going well, and the 25-year-old could rejoin the active roster as soon as Tuesday.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Closing in on 40 steals

    Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a double, a stolen base, a run scored and was hit by a pitch in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Rays.

    The Guardians made Shane Baz pay for the HBP in the fourth inning, as Ramirez stole second base and scored Cleveland's first run. The stolen base was his first in 16 games and 37th of the season, putting him within reach of a second consecutive campaign with at least 40 steals.

  • Nathan Eaton LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Scores lone run in loss

    Eaton started in right field and went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Eaton doubled and scored Boston's lone run in the third inning. He made a second consecutive start in right field, as manager Alex Cora copes with the loss of Roman Anthony (oblique). Of note, Wilyer Abreu (calf) ran twice over the weekend and came out feeling good. He could be activated later this week, at which point he would become the primary starter in right field.

  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | SEA

    Mariners' Eugenio Suarez: Smashes 43rd homer in rout

    Suarez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 10-2 win over Atlanta.

    The homer was the 43rd of the season for Suarez and his seventh with the Mariners. The All-Star third baseman is running out of time if he wants to record the first 50-homer campaign of his career, and the move to Seattle has done no favors for his fantasy value. Suarez has been fine with a .751 OPS over 17 games on the road since joining the M's, but his .609 OPS across 16 outings at pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park is significantly dragging down his appeal for home contests.

  • Ernie Clement SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Not starting Saturday

    Clement isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

    Clement went 1-for-4 with an RBI during a win in Friday's series opener and will now retreat to the bench while Isiah Kiner-Falefa picks up a start at the hot corner, batting seventh.

  • Nathan Eaton LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Starts in right field

    Eaton started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Friday's 10-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Right field has become a problem for the Red Sox, who are dealing with injuries to Wilyer Abreu (calf) and Roman Anthony (oblique). In the two games since Anthony joined Abreu on the IL -- both against left-handers -- Rob Refsnyder and Eaton have filled the void. Saturday's game will provide a look as to how manager Alex Cora plans to fill the void against a right-hander (Brandon Pfaadt).

  • Alex Bregman 3B | BOS

    Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Logs multiple hits in loss

    Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's 10-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Bregman's two-run double was part of a four-run eighth inning that pulled the Red Sox within a run before Arizona ran away in the bottom of the frame. He's slumped since his last multi-hit game on Aug. 22; Bregman entered the night batting .104 (5-for-48) with two RBI over the previous 12 games.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Another long ball Friday

    Caminero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-1 loss to the Guardians.

    Caminero launched a 421-foot solo shot off Gavin Williams in the sixth inning for his 41st homer of the year. The 22-year-old has been on a scorching hot pace since the start of August, blasting 14 home runs in that span, the most in MLB, while batting .298 (37-for-124) with 32 RBI and 25 runs scored. Caminero is up to a .263/.304/.541 slash line with 103 RBI, 85 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 573 plate appearances and is inching closer toward the Rays' single-season home run record of 46, set by Carlos Pena in 2007.
