  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Achieves milestone in loss

    Perdomo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-1 loss to San Diego.

    Perdomo's homer was his 20th, the first time he's reached that milestone. While other regulars were given the day off after Arizona was eliminated from the postseason Friday, Perdomo insisted on playing his 160th game, per Steve Gilbert of MLB.com. There's a good chance he adds to that Sunday, as Perdomo is one RBI shy of a 20-100 year entering the final game of the regular season. It's been a remarkable year of development for Perdomo, whose 6.9 bWAR is among MLB leaders and tops position players in the NL.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Homers in win

    Bogaerts went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Bogaerts launched a 424-foot homer off Eduardo Rodriguez in the first inning, his first extra-base hit since coming off the injured list Tuesday. The veteran shortstop has hit safely in three of four games since rejoining the Padres, going 4-for-16 in that span. He's slashing .262/.328/.389 with 11 home runs, 51 RBI, 62 runs scored and 20 steals across 550 plate appearances and appears healthy as the club gears up for the postseason.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Posts steal in Friday's loss

    Perdomo went 2-for-4 with two doubles, one walk and one stolen base in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.

    Perdomo is up to 27 steals on the year, though he's logged just three of them over 22 contests in September. He's still hit well this month, batting .325 (27-for-83) with 11 extra-base hits. The shortstop's strong performance is rounding out his excellent season -- he's at a .291/.391/.461 slash line with 19 home runs, 98 RBI, 97 runs scored, 33 doubles and five triples through 159 games.

  • Ezequiel Tovar SS | COL

    Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Provides offense in loss

    Tovar went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Giants.

    Tovar got the Rockies on the board with a fifth-inning homer, but that was their only scoring play of the game. This was his first long ball in nearly a month -- his last came Aug. 28 versus the Astros, and he hit a modest .233 (20-for-86) with just two doubles and seven RBI over the 25 games between homers. The shortstop is up to nine homers, 33 RBI, 44 runs scored, five stolen bases and a .256/.299/.402 slash line over 93 contests this season.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Belts 29th homer

    Adames went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.

    Adames got to Rockies starter German Marquez early, tagging him for the opening runs in the first inning. This was Adames' first long ball since Sept. 9 versus the Diamondbacks, and he hit just .176 over the 14 games between homers. On the year, the shortstop is at a .226/.320/.420 slash line with 29 homers, 86 RBI, 93 runs scored, 12 stolen bases, 22 doubles and two triples across 158 contests.

  • Mookie Betts SS | LAD

    Dodgers' Mookie Betts: Not in Friday's lineup

    Betts is not in the Dodgers' starting lineup against the Mariners on Friday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Betts will join Freddie Freeman, Tommy Edman and Max Muncy on the bench for Friday's series opener after the Dodgers clinched in the NL West with an 8-0 win over the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Hyeseong Kim will start at shortstop and bat fifth.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Phillies' Trea Turner: Could return Sunday

    Manager Rob Thomson said Friday that Turner (hamstring) had an encouraging day of work, and while Turner won't play Saturday, he could return to the lineup Sunday against Minnesota, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Turner is working his way back from a strained right hamstring and could be activated for the Phillies' regular-season finale. Thomson has reiterated that Turner is expected to be available for Game 1 of the NLDS on Oct. 4, but a tuneup game Sunday could help knock off some rust, considering he's been on the shelf since Sept. 8.

  • Vidal Brujan SS | ATL

    Braves' Vidal Brujan: Still idle

    Brujan (hip) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Pittsburgh.

    Brujan was lifted from Sunday's game with a right hip injury and hasn't appeared in a game since. It's unclear if the utility player is still dealing with the injury, as he isn't a regular in Atlanta's lineup. He has taken 11 at-bats in September.

  • Masyn Winn SS | STL

    Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Has successful surgery

    Winn's surgery to repair a torn right meniscus was successful, and he's expected to be a full-go in time for spring training, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    The 23-year-old shortstop expects to be 100 percent by January. Winn played through the injury for several months before being shut down in mid-September. He slashed .253/.310/.363 with nine home runs and nine stolen bases across 537 plate appearances in 2025.

  • Ryan Ritter SS | COL

    Rockies' Ryan Ritter: Knocks three hits in loss

    Ritter went 3-for-4 in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Mariners.

    Ritter did his part to get on base, but he wasn't directly involved in any run-scoring plays. He's seen a part-time role in September, batting .237 (9-for-38) over 14 games this month. The infielder is at a .251/.301/.352 slash line with one home runs, three stolen bases, 18 RBI, 22 runs scored, nine doubles and three triples over 197 plate appearances in the majors this season.
