Kim went 1-for-3 with a walk Monday against the Angels.

Kim returned from the injured list Friday and has started all four games since. He's collected one hit in three of those contests, though none have gone for extra bases, and he's also provided no counting stats in that span.

Arias went 1-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Monday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Mets.

The homer was Arias' eighth of the season, and his four RBI set a season high as well. The 25-year-old infielder has been impressive at the plate in a limited sample size since coming off the injured list, which could help him eventually work his way up the batting order. Arias is hitting .290 with two big flies, two doubles, seven RBI and one stolen base over his last 31 at-bats (eight games).

Pena went 2-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, one RBI and a run scored in Monday's 8-2 win at Miami.

The Houston shortstop occupied his usual leadoff spot and cracked a couple of two-baggers off Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara to reach the 20-double mark for the fourth consecutive season. Since returning from a rib injury Aug. 1, Pena has gone 5-for-13 across three contests. Through 85 total games and 364 plate appearances, the 27-year-old is now slashing .324/.380/.491 with 11 homers, 49 runs scored and 41 RBI while going 15-for-17 on steal attempts.

Single-A Lakeland placed Montilla on its full-season injured list Monday after he recently sustained a torn ACL, Lynn G. Henning of The Detroit News reports.

Lenning relays that Montilla suffered the injury in an infield collision, resulting in the 20-year-old's placement on Lakeland's 7-day IL on July 21. Before getting hurt, Montilla slashed .270/.367/.390 with three home runs and 29 stolen bases in 300 plate appearances for Lakeland on the season. Since he'll require surgery to address the torn ligament in his knee, Montilla's absence is likely to stretch into the 2026 season.

Meidroth (thumb) entered Sunday's game as a defensive replacement in the ninth inning.

Meidroth was hit by a pitch Wednesday and has been out of the lineup since. However, he managed to make a brief appearance Sunday, suggesting he could avoid the injured list and perhaps return to the lineup Tuesday for Chicago's next game.

Correa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Red Sox.

Correa accounted for Houston's only run Sunday with his eighth home run of the season and first since he was traded to Houston on Thursday. He's taken over as the Astros' primary third baseman while hitting either third or fourth in the order.

Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an RBI single during Sunday's 8-5 loss to the Angels.

Montgomery headlined a four-run first inning for the White Sox, launching a three-run home run. He followed up the long ball with an RBI single in his second at-bat. The 23-year-old shortstop has been mashing since the All-Star break, going 15-for-58 (.259) with seven home runs, 21 RBI and nine runs scored. All seven of his homers have come in his last 11 games. Montgomery has an .851 OPS on the year.

Neto went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a two-RBI double during Sunday's 8-5 win over the White Sox.

Neto had gone 17 consecutive games without a round tripper, a dry spell that tied his season long, before tagging Sean Burke for a solo shot in the sixth frame Sunday. The performance marked Neto's first game since June 24 with multiple RBI. In his last 10 games, Neto is 10-for-37 (.270) with nine RBI and three runs scored.

Crawford went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Sunday's 5-4 win over the Rangers.

Crawford took Jacob deGrom yard in the fourth inning, marking the shortstop's ninth homer of the campaign. He's swatted a long ball in two of his last three games, and Crawford has now scored a run in four consecutive contests. However, he hasn't had a multi-hit game since July 20. Since then, he's gone 6-for-33 (.182) at the dish.

The Mariners will promote Emerson from High-A Everett to Double-A Arkansas during the upcoming week, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Emerson will make the leap to Double-A after slashing .281/.388/.453 with 11 home runs and six stolen bases over 90 games with Everett this season. The shortstop is considered to be among Seattle's top prospects.
