Stanton went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 9-3 win over Detroit.

Stanton struck out three times Thursday, but he did give the Yankees a 5-1 lead in the third inning with a 429-foot solo homer to left field. It was his 20th home run of the year, which is impressive given that he was on the shelf until mid-June due to tendinitis in both elbows and has played in just 63 games. Stanton has a .941 OPS with 31 runs and 49 RBI across 226 plate appearances this season.

Bell is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest in Miami.

Bell is one of the hottest hitters in baseball, having gone 8-for-15 with four home runs and 13 RBI over his last four games. However, the switch hitter often doesn't start against left-handed pitching, and that will be the case in Thursday's series finale as the Marlins send southpaw Ryan Weathers to the bump. Andres Chaparro will be at first base and bat fifth for the Nationals.

Jensen is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Cleveland.

Jensen was called up on Sept. 1 when rosters expanded, but he has now started just three of 10 games since his promotion. He's also yet to start a game at catcher, with all three of his starts coming at designated hitter. Jensen has gone 1-for-8 with a 2:4 K:BB over 12 plate appearances during his first stint in the big leagues, and it's clear the Royals don't intend for the top prospect to be an integral part of their lineup as they fight for a playoff spot.

Santander (shoulder/back) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Out since late May with a subluxation of his left shoulder, Santander had his rehab stint delayed a couple days due to lower-back tightness, but he's now been cleared for game action. Santander will serve as Buffalo's designated hitter for a few games before then seeing time in both left and right field. The Blue Jays don't have a target date for his return to the active roster yet, as they will see how Santander feels and how quickly he can get his timing back at the plate.

Palacios is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox.

The left-handed-hitting Palacios started each of the previous four contests against right-handed pitching, but he'll take a seat Thursday as the White Sox send righty Shane Smith to the hill. It's Bob Seymour in the designated-hitter spot for the series finale.

Diaz is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox.

It appears to be a routine day off for Diaz, who had started each of the previous nine tilts and who homered in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox. Brandon Lowe is in the designated-hitter spot and Bob Seymour will play first base for the Rays in Thursday's series finale.

Devers went 1-for-3 with two RBI, a double and a walk in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Devers smacked a two-RBI double to center field in the eighth inning, driving in the Giants' first two runs. The 28-year-old has safely reached base in 15 consecutive outings, slashing .328/.426/.690 with 19 RBI, seven runs scored and six long balls across 68 plate appearances during that span. Overall, he's slashing .260/.378/.486 with 102 RBI, 89 runs scored, 31 homers and a stolen base in 658 plate appearances over 147 games between San Francisco and Boston.

Rooker went 3-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-4 victory over Boston.

Rooker didn't drive in any runs in Wednesday's win, but he still made his presence felt with his 11th three-hit game of the year and his fourth contest with multiple doubles. The 30-year-old's .824 OPS marks a step back from last season's .927 breakout, though he's remained a steady power source with 40 doubles, 27 homers and 82 RBI across 147 games.

Keith went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 11-1 win over the Yankees.

Keith began the game on the bench with New York starting lefty Carlos Rodon before entering as a pinch hitter in the ninth and promptly taking Luke Weaver deep with a runner on for his 13th home run of the season, tying his rookie-season total from 2024. It was Keith's first home run since Aug. 26, and he's batting just .154 in 12 games since then. Despite the slump, he should remain in the lineup most days against righties.

Manzardo went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to Kansas City.

Manzardo responded to the Royals jumping out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning with a two-run blast in the bottom of the frame. It was the fifth home run in the last 11 games for Manzardo, who is 12-for-37 (.324) with six extra-base hits, 10 RBI and seven runs scored during that stretch. He's second on the team with 28 homers and is having a strong second half, slashing .282/.381/.542 with 11 home runs and 30 RBI over 43 games since the All-Star break.
