Machado went 3-for-5 with two RBI in Wednesday's 5-2 extra-inning win over the Giants.

Machado's third hit of the game was a two-run single in the 10th inning to give the Padres some breathing room. He's gone 10-for-17 with seven RBI over his last four games, but he's also rested regularly while nursing an elbow injury in September. Machado has a .258/.320/.465 slash line with 30 home runs, 91 RBI, 75 runs scored and three stolen bases over 137 contests this year.

Donaldson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.

Donaldson has a .743 OPS in 13 games since joining the Brewers and will head to the bench after the club earned the NL Central title Tuesday. Brian Anderson is starting at the hot corner and batting eighth.

Bohm is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus Pittsburgh.

Bohm is one of many Phillies regulars riding the pine following Tuesday's victory over the Pirates, which locked up a spot in the playoffs. Rodolfo Castro will take over at the hot corner and bat eighth.

Rivera is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the White Sox.

Rivera has been part of a rotation at third base for the Diamondbacks but will begin this one on the bench for the fourth time in five contests. Jace Peterson is handling the hot corner.

Peterson started at third base and went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 15-4 win over the White Sox.

Peterson registered his career-high 14th steal during Arizona's six-run fifth inning. The lefty hitter is in a rotation at third base with Evan Longoria and Emmanuel Rivera, normally getting starts against right-handers but not as part of a strict platoon.

Davis exited Tuesday's game against San Diego with a strained left shoulder, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Davis' injury came on an awkward slide into third base after he hit a line drive into right field during the first inning. The Giants haven't provided any information that could help determine how long Davis' absence will be, but a trip to the injured list is possible and would put an early end to the 30-year-old's season. If Davis does end up missing an extended period of time, Tyler Fitzgerald would likely see an increase in reps at third base with Wilmer Flores (knee) also rehabbing an injury.

Davis was removed from Tuesday's game against the Padres with an apparent shoulder injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Davis made an awkward slide into third base during the first inning of Tuesday's contest and seemingly injured his shoulder in the process. Luis Matos entered the game to replace Davis as Tyler Fitzgerald shifted to third base.

Machado is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Giants.

Machado has been limited to DH duties since the beginning of September because of a right (throwing) elbow injury that may eventually require surgery. Juan Soto will serve as San Diego's designated hitter Tuesday in San Francisco as Matthew Batten covers third base. Jurickson Profar is playing left field.

McMahon is out of the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Dodgers.

McMahon went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in the opening game of the twin bill at Coors Field. Harold Castro will cover third base and bat seventh in the nightcap.

McCabe will play for the Salt River Rafters this year in the Arizona Fall League.

McCabe, a 23-year-old switch-hitting third baseman Atlanta selected in the fourth round of the 2022 draft, had a strong first full season in pro ball, although he was old for the levels he played at. He posted a 145 wRC+ with Single-A Augusta and then slashed .281/.388/.428 with nine home runs and nine steals in 81 games for High-A Rome. His 30.7 percent hard-hit rate and 14.5 percent soft-hit rate on the season were strong marks, and it's encouraging that he maintained a 15.2 percent walk rate at High-A while cutting his strikeout rate from 26.7 percent to 19.0 percent.
