Bichette went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-1 win over the Rays.

He took Ryan Yarbrough deep in the fifth inning, giving the Jays a 5-0 lead at the time. Bichette has a six-game hit streak going during which he's slashing .423/.444/.769 with three of his 24 homers on the year -- a blistering pace to be sure but merely above average on a Toronto squad that as a team boasts a ridiculous 1.044 OPS in September.

Anderson (hamstring) was activated off the injured list as expected Tuesday.

Anderson had been on the shelf with a strained left hamstring since late August. He was on fire immediately prior to the injury, hitting .364 with four homers over his last 14 games. Danny Mendick was sent to Triple-A Charlotte to clear space for Anderson's return.

Bogaerts went 2-for-4 with a double and solo home run in Monday's 5-4 loss to Seattle.

Bogaerts and Rafael Devers went back-to-back in the eighth inning, but Boston's comeback fell short. This was Bogaerts' fourth game back after a stay on the COVID-19 injury list. The shortstop is 4-for-11 since his return.

DeJong is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

DeJong went 2-for-10 with a solo home run and a stolen base while starting in each of the Cardinals' last four games, but he'll shift back to a bench role now that top shortstop Edmundo Sosa (wrist) is back in the lineup to begin the week. So long as Sosa stays healthy the rest of the season, DeJong likely won't be in store for more than 2-to-3 starts per week.

Crawford (wrist) will be in the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

Crawford was held out of Sunday's series finale against the Cubs after he exited Saturday's game with wrist soreness, but he'll return to action after a one-game absence. Across his four appearances prior to his injury, the 34-year-old went 7-for-14 with a home run, a double, four runs and four RBI.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base Sunday in a victory over the Padres.

Turner entered the contest without a steal in his past 13 games, but he ended the drought with a first-inning theft of second base. The infielder is just 1-for-11 over his past three games but still leads the National League with a .316 batting average and 27 stolen bases.

Edman went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a win over the Reds on Sunday.

Nolan Arenado did all the damage on the scoreboard with a first-inning two-run home run, but Edman gave fantasy managers something to smile about with more success on the basepaths. The proficient leadoff hitter's stolen base was his fourth of September and 25th of the campaign, and he's now sporting a modest three-game hitting streak as well.

Mondesi went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Twins.

Mondesi led off the second inning by taking Baily Ober deep to right field to put the Royals up 2-1. The home run ball snapped an 0-for-17 drought at the plate for the speedster and it was his second home run since returning from the injured list Sept. 1. The 25-year-old is now slashing .265/.286/.603 with six homers, 13 RBI, 11 runs scored, seven steals and 2:25 BB:K over 72 plate appearances.

Lindor went 3-for-4 with three home runs, three runs, five RBI and a walk in a 7-6 victory over the Yankees on Sunday.

Lindor powered the Mets offense Sunday with a three-run home run in the first inning and solo shots in the sixth and eighth, with the latter proving to be the deciding run in the game. With the impressive feat against the Mets' archrivals, Lindor has finally been initiated into New York baseball given his dismal performance for much of the season. The electric shortstop has turned things around in September with a .273/.377/.727 slash line in 12 games this month, though Sunday's performance is responsible for a large portion of the recent success.

Seager went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in an 8-0 win against the Padres on Sunday.

Seager opened the game's scoring with his fourth-inning solo shot to left off Dinelson Lamet. The 27-year-old shortstop has cooled a bit of late but is still slashing .333/.439/.576 in 11 September games.
