  • Blue Jays' George Springer: Goes deep in Game 1

    Springer went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Mariners in Game 1 of the ALCS.

    Springer took Bryce Miller deep on the first pitch of the bottom of the first inning, giving the Blue Jays an early 1-0 lead and accounting for the only offense in the game for Toronto. The outfielder has now gone 4-for-21 with two home runs, three RBI and five runs scored over five games during the postseason.

    Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Finishes postseason with three HR

    Suzuki went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a Game 5 loss to Milwaukee in the NLDS.

    Suzuki accounted for Chicago's only run with a solo shot off Jacob Misiorowski in the second inning. That long ball temporarily tied the game, but the Brewers scored twice more to emerge with the 3-1 series-clinching victory. Suzuki led the Cubs with five RBI over eight postseason games while knocking three doubles and three homers among his seven hits. He also scored four runs but posted a 1:10 BB:K.

  • Jorge Polanco 2B | NYM

    Mariners' Jorge Polanco: Sends Seattle to ALCS

    Polanco went 1-for-6 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Game 5 of the ALDS against the Tigers on Friday.

    Polanco drew a walk in the seventh inning before scoring on an RBI single from Leo Rivas to tie the game at two apiece. The score remained unchanged until the bottom of the 15th inning, when Polanco drove a single into right field with the bases loaded to walk off the Tigers and give the M's their first ALCS berth since 2001.

  • Kyle Schwarber LF | PHI

    Phillies' Kyle Schwarber: Powers Phillies to Game 3 victory

    Schwarber went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a two-run blast in Wednesday's NLDS Game 3 win over the Dodgers.

    Schwarber got the scoring started for the Phillies by tying the game up with a mammoth 455-foot solo homer in the top of the fourth inning off of Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Then, in his final plate appearance of the night in the top of the eighth, he went deep off of Clayton Kershaw with a man on base. The two-homer night pushed Schwarber's career postseason home run total to 23, moving him past Bernie Williams for third all-time, trailing only Manny Ramirez (29) and Jose Altuve (27).

  • Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: Drawing start in Game 3

    Santander will start in right field and bat seventh Tuesday in Game 3 of the ALDS versus the Yankees.

    Santander was on the bench in favor of Myles Straw in Game 2 against lefty Max Fried, but he'll get the start in Game 3 as the Yankees send southpaw Carlos Rodon to the hill. The switch-hitting Santander went 1-for-3 with a single in the Blue Jays' Game 1 victory.

  • David Fry C | CLE

    Guardians' David Fry: Nasal surgery scheduled

    Fry will undergo surgery Tuesday to repair nasal fractures, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

    Fry suffered nasal and facial fractures when he was hit by a 99 mph fastball thrown by Tarik Skubal back on Sept. 24. He's expected to be fully recovered by early-to mid-November, so Fry should have a fairly typical offseason.

  • David Banuelos DH | BAL

    David Banuelos: Becomes free agent

    Banuelos elected free agency Monday.

    Banuelos spent the majority of his 2025 campaign at Triple-A Norfolk, where he struggled to a .107 average with one home run, two RBI and four runs scored in 21 games. He'll search for a better fit elsewhere following Monday's transaction.

  • Jorge Polanco 2B | NYM

    Mariners' Jorge Polanco: Pops two homers against Skubal

    Polanco went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs in Sunday's win over the Tigers in Game 2 of the American League Division Series.

    Polanco played hero for the Mariners, putting the team on the board with a home run off Detroit ace Tarik Skubal in the fourth inning and adding another homer against Skubal in the sixth. It's a performance that will long be remembered in Seattle, as Polanco set the stage for the team to eventually take the lead for good in the eighth inning, after it took the loss to Troy Melton and company in Game 1. Polanco finished the regular season with a .329/.380/.634 slash line in September and may have saved the season in the club's second playoff game of 2025.

  • Blue Jays' George Springer: Two hits, including homer, in Game 2

    Springer went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and two runs scored in Sunday's 13-7 win over the Yankees in Game 2 of the ALDS.

    Springer walked and came around to score on a grand slam by Vladimir Guerrero in the fourth inning. He later added a solo homer off Will Warren in the following frame and a double in the bottom of the seventh. Springer will look to build off Sunday's performance when Toronto attempts to sweep New York on the road Tuesday.

  • Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: On bench for Game 2

    Santander is out of the lineup Sunday for Game 2 of the ALDS against the Yankees.

    The switch-hitting Santander hit just .146 with a 36.4 percent strikeout rate over 55 plate appearances against lefties during the season, so he'll take a seat on the bench for Game 2 while the Yankees send southpaw Max Fried to the mound. Toronto will go with a starting outfield of Davis Schneider, Daulton Varsho and Myles Straw from left to right Sunday.
