It was the second straight game with a long ball for the young shortstop, and Neto has gone deep eight times over 23 games in August. He's added 17 RBI, 10 runs, two stolen bases and a .247/.320/.584 slash line so far this month.

    Allen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

    Vidal Brujan will cover shortstop for the matinee contest while Allen rests after starting in each of Atlanta's last three games. Allen is a dependable defender at shortstop, but he's gone 0-for-16 at the plate over his last seven starts to bring his season-long batting line down to .220/.285/.249 across 394 plate appearances.

  • Ryan Ritter SS | COL

    Rockies' Ryan Ritter: Scores twice

    Ritter went 0-for-2 with two runs scored Tuesday against the Astros.

    Ritter has started 10 of Colorado's last 11 games since returning from the injured list. Seven of those games have come on the road, and he's managed to go 10-for-34 with two doubles, a triple, five RBI and six runs scored.

  • White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Homers in Tuesday's loss

    Montgomery went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Royals.

    Montgomery opened up the scoring with a solo blast off Michael Lorenzen in the second inning. It's his fourth straight game leaving the yard and he's racked up nine RBI over that span. Montgomery now has 14 homers in 43 career games, though that comes with a .230 batting average and .287 on-base percentage.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Red Sox's Trevor Story: Flashes skills in Tuesday's win

    Story went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Orioles.

    The shortstop took Kyle Bradish deep in the second inning, giving Lucas Giolito all the run support he would need. It's the third time this season Story has recorded a homer and a steal in the same game, with two of those performances coming in the second half of August. On the month, he's slashing .303/.374/.494 with four of his 21 home runs and six of his 23 steals on the year, adding 18 runs and 18 RBI in 23 contests.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Drives in two in loss

    Perdomo went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-8 loss to the Brewers.

    Perdomo continued his breakout season with a run-scoring single in the seventh inning and then a game-tying double an inning later. He's knocked in 86 runs this season, smashing his previous career best of 47 in 2023. Perdomo ranks third among baseball's shortstops with a 5.5 fWAR.

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Blasts 12th homer

    Wilson went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Tigers.

    Wilson opened the scoring with his first-inning homer and generated another RBI in the third. He's gone 6-for-20 (.300) with two homers and eight RBI over five games since returning from a forearm fracture. Wilson has shown no rust, and the shortstop now has a .311/.353/.450 slash line with 12 homers, 53 RBI, 50 runs scored and five stolen bases over 99 contests this season.

    Seager hit the 20-homer plateau for the season Tuesday, which marks his fourth consecutive year accomplishing this feat. The star shortstop has remained one of fantasy's top four-category producers at shortstop when healthy in 2025. Since the start of July, Seager is slashing .293/.396/.530 with 10 big flies, 13 doubles, 25 RBI and 31 runs scored covering his last 212 plate appearances.
