  • Jon Berti 3B | CHC

    Marlins' Jon Berti: Lands on IL

    Berti (finger) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

    He has been out with a stiff right finger, which is apparently serious enough for him to miss at least 10 days. Isan Diaz was recalled in a corresponding move.

    Marlins' Jon Berti: Still not starting

    Berti (finger) isn't in Thursday's lineup against the Phillies.

    Berti missed the past two games after suffering a bruised finger Monday, and he'll sit once again Thursday. It's unclear whether he'll be available off the bench. Jazz Chisholm will start at second base once again.

  • Orlando Arcia SS | MIN

    Brewers' Orlando Arcia: Joins hit parade

    Arcia went 4-for-6 with a double and three runs in Wednesday's victory over the Tigers.

    Arcia joined the Brewers' hit parade Wednesday, accounting for four of the 21 hits the club banged out. Of the 29 hits Arcia has recorded this season, 10 have come in three games, but that doesn't change the fact he hitting .257 and owns a .328 OBP -- a mark that tops the number he finished with in each of his four other seasons in the big leagues.

  • Dansby Swanson SS | CHC

    Braves' Dansby Swanson: Records three hits in win

    Swanson went 3-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and five runs scored Wednesday as the Braves pummeled the Marlins, 29-9.

    Swanson got on base in five of his six at-bats (three singles, a walk and a hit-by-pitch) and came around to score all five times in Atlanta's blowout win. The 26-year-old has reached safely at least four times in three of the last four games and will take a .306/.372/.482 slash line into Thursday's series opener against Austin Voth and the Nationals.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Rockies' Trevor Story: Smacks 10th homer

    Story went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Padres.

    Story took Zach Davies yard in the first inning for his 10th home run of the season. It was his first homer since Aug. 24, though he has stolen eight bases in that 13-game span. Story has delivered across the box score all season, as he's maintained a .292/.367/.554 line with 34 runs scored and 22 RBI across 188 plate appearances.

  • Jon Berti 3B | CHC

    Marlins' Jon Berti: Remains out Wednesday

    Berti (finger) remains out of the lineup Wednesday against Atlanta.

    Berti will remain out of the lineup for a second consecutive game after bruising his finger Monday. It's unclear when he'll return to the field, but he isn't expected to spend time on the injured list. Jazz Chisholm will start at second base Wednesday.

  • Jose Barrero SS | BAL

    Reds' Jose Garcia: Sitting out again

    Garcia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    Garcia will hit the bench for the second time in three games, this time giving way to Freddy Galvis at shortstop after Kyle Farmer received the nod in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Pirates. Though the Reds don't appear ready to pull the plug on Garcia as their everyday shortstop just yet, the 22-year-old has gotten off to an underwhelming 5-for-34 (.147 average) start to his big-league career.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Rockies' Trevor Story: Steals in three straight games

    Story went 1-for-4 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 14-5 loss to the Padres.

    Story hit a double in the first inning and stole third base before coming home on a Nolan Arenado homer. In the fifth, Story's fielder's choice plated Tony Wolters. The stolen base was Story's fourth in his last three games and 13th of the season. He's slashing .293/.370/.543 with nine homers, 21 RBI and 33 runs scored through 41 contests.

  • Braves' Johan Camargo: Optioned to alternate site

    Camargo was optioned to Atlanta's alternate training site Wednesday.

    Adeiny Hechavarria had already started to cut into Camargo's playing time, so with Ozzie Albies (wrist) getting activated, this was a natural corresponding move. He has a .200/.244/.367 slash line on the season.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Nationals' Trea Turner: Swipes sixth bag

    Turner went 1-for-4 with a double, a run, an RBI, a stolen base and a walk in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Rays.

    Even with only one hit Tuesday, the 27-year-old was able to contribute in a number of categories. Turner seems to be putting it all together with a .359/.413/.623 slash line, nine homers, 11 doubles, 35 runs, 25 RBI and six stolen bases in 41 games.
