Alvarez went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Cubs.

Alvarez went deep in the eighth off Caleb Thielbar to put the Mets ahead 9-7. It was Alvarez's third home run in his last nine games, a span during which he's batting .310/.394/.690. Alvarez has quietly put together a productive second half of the season when he's been available. In 37 games since being recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on July 21, Alvarez is hitting .282/.363/.573 with seven homers and 19 RBI.

McCann went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Dodgers.

Once the Diamondbacks got Los Angeles starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani out of the game after six shutout innings, McCann and company scored five times over the final three frames for the comeback win. McCann doubled in the first run and scored the third run in the seventh inning. His sacrifice bunt in the bottom of the ninth put two teammates in scoring position, and they both eventually scored for the win. McCann has been useful to Arizona's late-season push for the playoffs, going 5-for-17 with two doubles, two home runs and eight RBI over his last five games.

Rortvedt went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

The homer was Rortvedt's first of the season, giving the Dodgers a 4-0 lead in the seventh inning. He has seen steady playing time in September while filling in for Will Smith (hand). Over 15 games this month, Rortvedt has gone 11-for-40 (.275) with three extra-base hits and four RBI. He's up to a .275/.341/.400 slash line with 10 RBI, nine runs scored and three doubles across 117 plate appearances this season.

Realmuto was removed from Tuesday's game against the Marlins with a right index finger contusion, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Realmuto took a foul ball off his hand while behind the plate during the ninth inning of Tuesday's contest, and he was later lifted for a pinch hitter. X-rays on his hand came back negative afterward, so he seems to have avoided severe damage, but the Phillies may give Rafael Marchan a start or two at catcher over the next couple of days to give Realmuto's finger time to heal.

Pages isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Giants, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Pages increased his hitting streak to four games with a double in Monday's contest, but he'll retreat to the bench Tuesday while Jimmy Crooks starts behind the plate and bats seventh.

Bart was scratched from Tuesday's lineup in Cincinnati due to left wrist discomfort, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Bart had been slated to serve as the Pirates' designated hitter, but he'll need at least a day to rest a wrist issue. Bryan Reynolds will move from right field into the DH slot, while Alexander Canario has entered the lineup in right field.

Davis is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Cincinnati.

Rafael Flores is getting his first big-league start at catcher while Davis rests. Fellow catcher Joey Bart is also in Tuesday's lineup, serving as the Pirates' designated hitter.

Baldwin went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, two runs scored and a walk in Monday's win over the Nationals.

Baldwin reached base three times in Monday's win, highlighted by a two-run single in the third inning. He's stayed hot at the plate down the stretch, slashing .370/.433/.778 over his last seven games. For the season, the 24-year-old is batting .275/.344/.462 with 16 doubles, 18 homers and 78 RBI in 119 games as he makes a strong push for National League Rookie of the Year.

Contreras (hand) will start at catcher and bat cleanup in Monday's game versus the Padres.

Contreras was held out of Sunday's lineup in St. Louis after his left hand was hit by an opposing hitter's bat during Saturday's game. He's well enough to give it a go after one day of rest as the Brewers open a series in San Diego.

Fermin is not in the Padres' starting lineup against the Brewers on Monday.

Fermin will be on the bench for a second consecutive game while Elias Diaz serves behind home plate and bats ninth. Fermin has gone 13-for-41 (.317) with three doubles, seven runs, one home run and six RBI since Sept. 1.
