  • Jahmai Jones DH | DET

    Tigers' Jahmai Jones: Powers offense Saturday

    Jones went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox.

    Jones delivered a two-run single in the fifth inning that ultimately won the game for the Tigers and secured their spot in the postseason. The outfielder is now riding a three-game hitting streak, during which time he's gone 4-for-9 with a home run and five RBI. Jones gives Detroit a potent bat against southpaws in the playoffs, as he's sporting a robust .970 OPS in those matchups this year.

  • Jorge Polanco DH | SEA

    Mariners' Jorge Polanco: Clubs homer in loss

    Polanco went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Dodgers.

    Polanco's fifth-inning blast gave the Mariners a 3-2 lead. He's homered twice over his last three games and now has 26 long balls on the year, the second-best total of any season in his career. The second baseman has added a .265/.326/.495 slash line with 78 RBI, 64 runs scored, six stolen bases and 30 doubles over 138 contests. He's batting .329 (27-for-82) with 17 extra-base hits across 23 games in September.

  • Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: Idle Saturday

    Santander isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays.

    Santander will get a breather after going 1-for-8 with four strikeouts in three games since returning from the injured list. Davis Schneider will fill the resulting void in left field and bat fifth.

  • Mike Trout DH | LAA

    Angels' Mike Trout: Goes yard twice against 'Stros

    Trout went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Friday's 4-3 win over Houston.

    The 34-year-old got the Angels on the board when he took Jason Alexander deep in the fourth inning, before launching a Bryan King fastball over the right-center field fence in the eighth inning for what proved to be the game-winning run. Trout has gone yard four times in his last five games to reach 25 on the year, the 10th time in his career he's reached that milestone, and his 403 career blasts rank second among active players behind Giancarlo Stanton's 452.

  • Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Extends hit streak

    Yoshida went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 4-3 win over the Tigers.

    The Red Sox did little against Detroit starter Casey Mize for six innings until Yoshida opened the seventh with a single. Two batters later and after 80 pitches, Mize was removed, and the Red Sox took advantage of the bullpen. Yoshida scored in the seventh, and Boston scored runs in the following two innings to complete the comeback. The multi-hit effort extended Yoshida's hit streak to seven games, during which he's gone 13-for-30 (.433) with four extra-base hits and five RBI.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Goes deep twice in victory

    Stanton went 2-for-4 with two homers and five RBI in Friday's 8-4 win against Baltimore.

    The veteran slugger notched his ninth career performance with five or more RBI, achieving the feat for the second time this season. Stanton also posted his second multi-homer contest of the season, smacking a two-run long ball in first before returning in the third to hit a three-run blast, both coming off Orioles starter Trevor Rogers. The 35-year-old remains a force to be reckoned with when in the lineup, as he's now slashing .267/.342/.584 with 23 homers, 64 RBI and 35 runs scored in 273 plate appearances.

  • Kyle Manzardo DH | CLE

    Guardians' Kyle Manzardo: Goes yard in defeat

    Manzardo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-2 loss to Texas.

    Manazardo blasted his 27th homer of the year and his first since Sept. 10 against the Royals. The 25-year-old slugger has been a quality power hitter in 2025, though his fantasy appeal has been limited by his weak batting average and lack of run-scoring production. Through 465 at-bats, Manzardo is hitting .232 with just 47 runs scored and two stolen bases, albeit with 70 RBI.

  • Jorge Polanco DH | SEA

    Mariners' Jorge Polanco: Not in Friday's lineup

    Polanco is not in the Mariners' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.

    Polanco will begin Friday's contest on the bench while Cole Young starts at second base and bats ninth. Polanco has been hot at the plate since Sept. 1 with a .329/.375/.608 slash line with three home runs, 13 RBI, 13 doubles and 12 runs scored across 89 plate appearances.

  • Yandy Diaz DH | TB

    Rays' Yandy Diaz: Good to go Friday

    Diaz (groin) will DH and bat second Friday against Toronto.

    Diaz was removed from Thursday's game due to tightness in his right groin and was deemed day-to-day by manager Kevin Cash. However, Diaz is in the starting lineup for Friday's contest. He's 17-for-36 (.472) with two home runs and a 10:4 BB:K in his last 11 games.

  • Mike Trout DH | LAA

    Angels' Mike Trout: Pops homer in loss

    Trout went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 9-4 loss to the Royals.

    Trout got the Angels within a run in the eighth inning with his homer, but the Royals responded with a four-run ninth. This was Trout's second long ball in his last four games. The outfielder has struggled a bit in September, even compared to the rest of the season, as he's hitting .211 (15-for-71) with 34 strikeouts over 21 games this month. On the year, he's batting .228 with a .772 OPS, 23 homers, 61 RBI, 69 runs scored and two stolen bases across 127 contests.
