Suarez went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs and a walk in an 8-7 win against the Braves on Sunday.

Suarez walked in the first inning, swatted a solo home run in the fifth and blasted a walkoff solo shot in the ninth off Atlanta closer Kenley Jansen. The 31-year-old has been on a tear of late with five long balls in his last four contests while batting 6-for-17 during the stretch. Suarez has now hit the 30-homer benchmark in four of his last five seasons.

Bregman went 1-for-3 with a grand slam and an additional run scored in Sunday's victory over the Angels.

After Mauricio Dubon led off the third inning with a homer, the Astros loaded the bases for Bregman, and he capitalized by launching a grand slam to right field. The round tripper was his first since Aug. 28 and his 21st on the season. The four RBI give Bregman 82 on the season, good for fifth among third basemen, and with two runs scored on the day, he has 84, which sits second among third basemen.

Moncada is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Moncada will get a breather for the first time since he returned to the lineup Tuesday following a stint on the 15-day injured list due to a hamstring strain. Josh Harrison will check in at third base in place of Moncada, who went 8-for-24 with two home runs, two walks, a double, five RBI and five runs in his first five games back in action.

Kreidler is starting at third base and batting ninth in Sunday's game against the Royals.

Kreidler got Saturday's game off but will now be starting for the eighth time in the last nine contests. The Tigers are clearly wanting to take a look at the rookie, who is slashing .250/.321/.417 early in his career. Jeimer Candelario heads to the bench after starting at third Saturday.

Candelario is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Candelario gets Sunday off after starting at the hot corner Saturday, with Ryan Kreidler taking over. The rookie Kreidler is seeing more playing time as the 54-85 Tigers look toward the future, so Candelario's fantasy value will likely take a hit down the stretch as he sees his playing time reduced.

LeMahieu (toe) hopes to return to action during the Yankees' homestand that begins Sept. 20, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

LeMahieu landed on the injured list Thursday, and it appears he will miss more than the minimum 10 days. However, he might not be out much beyond that. Gleyber Torres will likely remain the Yankees' primary second baseman until LeMahieu is ready to return.

Henderson is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, according to Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun.

Henderson tallied three hits over his last two games, but manager Brandon Hyde decided it was time for his first day off as a big-leaguer. Jesus Aguilar will join the lineup with Henderson opening the game on the bench.

Devers went 3-for-5 with a home run and five RBI in Saturday's 17-4 win over Baltimore.

Devers ended a 21-game run without a home run early in the contest, connecting on a first-inning grand slam. His 425-foot no-doubter also lifted the third baseman from a 1-for-13 funk over the last four games, during which he left 12 men on base.

Suarez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-1 win over Atlanta.

Suarez hit one of two Seattle solo homers off Atlanta starter Max Fried in the contest, launching a 423-foot shot in the sixth inning. The long ball was his third over his past three games and pushed his season total to 28. Suarez went deep 31 times last season but finished below the Mendoza Line with a .198 batting average. He's maintained the power while improving his slash line to .233/.333/.456 in 2022.

Ramirez went 3-for-4 with a walk, an RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Twins.

Ramirez made some noise from the No. 3 spot in the order. He picked up his 15th steal of the season in the first inning, his first successful theft since July 26 after getting caught on his last three attempts. The third baseman's on pace to miss the 20-steal mark for the first time in a full season since 2017. He's added a .280/.351/.525 slash line with 26 home runs, 109 RBI and 77 runs scored through 133 contests.
