Valera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Southpaw Patrick Corbin is on the hill for Texas, so Valera and fellow left-handed hitters Kyle Manzardo and C.J. Kayfus will head to the bench. Johnathan Rodriguez will receive the start in right field in Valera's stead.

Manzardo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Southpaw Patrick Corbin is on the hill for Texas, so Manzardo and fellow left-handed hitters George Valera and C.J. Kayfus will head to the bench. With Manzardo sitting, Jose Ramirez will get a day off from playing the field and will serve as Cleveland's designated hitter.

Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

The left-handed-hitting Pederson will remain absent from the starting nine for the second straight day to close out the season while the Guardians send another southpaw (Logan Allen) to the hill. Adolis Garcia will serve as Texas' designated hitter in Pederson's stead.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Diaz will be rested along with fellow veteran Brandon Lowe in the season finale. Jonathan Aranda will serve as the Rays' designated hitter in place of Diaz, who has hit .300 with 25 home runs, three steals, 83 RBI and 79 runs in 150 games.

Larnach is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

He'll close out the campaign with consecutive absences against southpaws. With Larnach on the bench Sunday, Ryan Jeffers will serve as the Twins' designated hitter.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
