Bregman went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a home run, three runs scored and three RBI in Saturday's 23-2 win at Baltimore.

Bregman had only the three plate appearances since he made an early exit with the Astros holding a huge lead, yet he still made significant contributions Saturday. The 25-year-old has a .322/.444/.621 slash line with five homers in 25 games since the All-Star break.

Muncy went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Saturday's 4-0 win over Arizona.

Muncy took starter Alex Young deep in the second inning on a 428-foot blast that landed in the center field seats. He also came around to score on a Russell Martin single in the fourth inning after getting aboard with a walk. Muncy is hitting .260/.370/.519 with 28 homers, 76 RBI and 78 run scored in 114 games this season.

Candelario (thumb) is set to receive a CT scan, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

The Tigers are expecting Candelario to be out for an extended time but would like clarification on the injury due to the soreness he continues to experience. Officially placed on the injured list Tuesday, there is no timetable for Candelario's return.

Chapman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in a win over the White Sox on Friday.

Chapman's 359-foot shot in the first inning gave the Athletics a quick lead and snapped an 0-for-16 skid that had encompassed his prior five games. The slugging third baseman only has three round trippers in the second half of the season, with two of those having come since the calendar flipped to August. Chapman's multi-hit effort was also his first since July 21, a testament to the extent of his recent struggles at the plate.

Duffy went 2-for-3 with a double and a run in a win over the Mariners on Friday.

Duffy laced his fourth double of the season -- his first extra-base hit since July 30 -- off Marco Gonzales in the win. The veteran infielder has yet to go deep since finally making his season debut July 23, but he's hitting a solid .265 over the first 12 games in which he's recorded at least one official at-bat.

Devers is not in Saturday's lineup against the Angels.

He is hitting .306/.336/.628 with eight home runs in 28 games since the All-Star break. Michael Chavis will start at third base while Brock Holt will man the keystone.

Ramirez went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, two runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 6-2 win over the Twins.

Cleveland has now climbed into a tie atop the AL Central with Minnesota, and Ramirez has been a big factor in that surge up the standings. The 26-year-old has an eight-game hitting streak going, slashing .448/.500/.897 with two homers, two steals, eight RBI and eight runs over that stretch.

Devers went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Friday's 16-4 victory over the Angels.

Devers knocked home a pair of runs in the sixth inning on a single to right field, and he smacked a solo home run over the fence in right to close out his night. The 22-year-old continues to impress at the dish this season, as he's now slashing .319/.366/.567 with 24 homers, 90 RBI and eight stolen bases over 115 contests.

Rendon went 2-for-5 with a triple, a home run, three RBI and two runs scored Friday night against the Mets.

Rendon knocked home a run in the fourth inning with a triple to right center, and he cranked a two-run homer in the seventh to give his club the lead. He continues to impress this season in Washington, slashing .315/.400/.608 with 25 homers and 90 RBI over 101 contests.

Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-2 win over the Cubs.

His fourth-inning blast off Yu Darvish proved to be the winning run on the night. Suarez now has 31 homers on the season, with 11 of them coming in 27 games since the All-Star break -- a stretch during which the 28-year-old is slashing a robust .284/.381/.674.
