Manager Carlos Mendoza confirmed Wednesday that Winker (back) will be shut down for the rest of the 2025 season, Manny Gomez of NJ.com reports.

Winker landed on the injured list in mid-July due to back inflammation. He was pulled from his rehab assignment last week after suffering a setback, and the injury is severe enough for the 32-year-old to be officially sidelined for the rest of the 2025 campaign. Winker will shift his focus to being ready for spring training and will enter the offseason as a free agent. He logged just 81 plate appearances for the Mets this season, slashing .229/.309/.400 with one home run, one stolen base, 10 RBI and eight runs.

McCutchen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

McCutchen will receive a breather after he had served as the Pirates' designated hitter in the team's last two games while going 2-for-8 with a double, an RBI and a run. Tommy Pham will get a break from playing the outfield Wednesday and will settle into the DH spot.

Yelich went 2-for-5 with an RBI single, a double and a stolen base during Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Rangers.

Yelich returned Monday from a five-game absence due to a back injury. He didn't seem to have any restrictions Tuesday, stealing his 16th base of the season and legging out his 18th double. In his last 14 games, Yelich is 16-for-48 (.333) with a 6:9 BB:K. He has an .814 OPS on the year.

Schwarber went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Mets.

With Tuesday's long ball, Schwarber became only the second player in Phillies history alongside Ryan Howard to record 50 home runs in a single season. Though Schwarber has been a fantasy stalwart this season with an MLB-high 123 RBI to go with 99 runs and 10 stolen bases, he's been struggling overall during his last 11 games, batting just .146.

Bell went 1-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Tuesday's win over Miami.

Bell set the tone early with a three-run blast in the first inning. He later tacked on an insurance run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth. Bell has gone deep four times in the last three games, bringing him to 20 on the year and surpassing last year's total of 19. The veteran first baseman is now slashing .232/.324/.409 after entering the All-Star break with a .678 OPS.

The Cubs recalled Ballesteros from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

The 21-year-old will join the Cubs for the fourth time this season with Kyle Tucker (calf) landing on the injured list, Ballesteros won't directly take Tucker's position in right field, but Chicago could use Seiya Suzuki more in right field to open up the DH spot for Ballesteros, who is one of the organization's top prospects and has an .859 OPS with 13 homers in 114 Triple-A games this year.

The Mets optioned Young to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

Young homered in his lone plate appearance after being recalled a week ago, but he will nonetheless be dispatched back to the minors. Jose Siri (tibia) is back from the 60-day injured list to take Young's roster spot.

Bell went 4-for-6 with two homers, six RBI and an additional run scored in Monday's 15-7 blowout of the Marlins.

The veteran first baseman notched his 11th career multi-homer performance, as he plated six or more runs for the second time. Bell cracked round trippers from both sides of the plate, blasting a 431-foot, two-run homer off southpaw reliever Josh Simpson in the sixth before returning the next inning to launch another two-run long ball off righty George Soriano. The 33-year-old Bell has been a steady performer since the All-Star break, batting .260 (34-for-131) with eight homers, 18 RBI and 18 runs scored over 40 games.

Yelich (back) will serve as the designated hitter and bat in the cleanup spot in Monday's game against the Rangers.

Lower-back soreness has kept Yelich off the field for the Brewers' past five games, but he has been cleared to return to the lineup for Monday's series opener. The 33-year-old has performed well at the plate in the home stretch of the 2025 season and has a .957 OPS with 27 runs, seven homers and 23 RBI in 133 plate appearances since Aug. 1.

O'Hearn is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.

The Padres will go with Gavin Sheets at designated hitter as the Reds send left-hander Nick Lodolo to the hill. The left-handed-hitting O'Hearn had started the previous four contests, including a pair versus southpaws.
