Story went 4-for-5 with a home run, four RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 11-2 win over the Nationals.

Story laced a two-run single in the fifth inning and later added a two-run blast in the eighth, notching his first four-hit game of the season as well as his first time homering and swiping a base in the same contest. The shortstop is riding a six-game hitting streak and has hit safely in eight of his past 10 games, with the latter stretch including seven extra-base hits, 13 RBI, nine runs scored and three stolen bases. For the year, Story is slashing .252/.293/.404 with 13 long balls, 51 RBI, 42 runs scored and 14 steals across 349 plate appearances.

Betts went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Thursday's 6-2 win over the White Sox.

Betts tacked on an insurance run with his seventh-inning blast, which was his 10th homer of the season. He had gone 0-for-12 over his previous three games, and the 32-year-old hadn't hit a homer since June 8 in St. Louis. For the season, Betts has struggled far more than usual with a .246/.321/.383 slash line while adding 43 RBI, 53 runs scored, six stolen bases, 11 doubles and one triple across 80 contests. His plate discipline remains excellent, so it looks like Betts is just working through a slump in the middle of the season.

Adames went 3-for-4 with two doubles, one walk, one RBI and three runs scored in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Adames has hit safely in the last four games, though this was his first multi-hit effort since June 26. The shortstop contributed an RBI double in the third inning as well. He hasn't always hit consistently this season, but Adames has posted an 11.3 percent walk rate, which includes a 6:11 BB:K over his last 10 games. He's up to a .218/.305/.358 slash line with 10 home runs, 38 RBI, 49 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and four stolen bases through 87 contests.

Swanson went 2-for-4 in Thursday's 1-0 extra-inning win over the Guardians.

Swanson recorded his 23rd multi-hit effort of the season and his fourth in the last eight games. The veteran shortstop got off to a sluggish start at the dish -- he was batting .181 as of April 27 -- but he's experienced quite a turnaround in the past two months. Across his last 236 plate appearances, Swanson is slashing .288/.339/.470 with 10 home runs, seven doubles, 25 RBI, 31 runs scored and three stolen bases.

Neto went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and three runs scored in Thursday's 5-1 win over Atlanta.

The homer was the 13th of the year for Neto, who broke out of a 1-for-17 skid at the plate over his prior six games. The shortstop has proven to be a strong source of power and speed at a premium position in fantasy leagues to this point. Through 280 plate appearances, Neto is slashing a strong .270/.311/.487 with 13 long balls, 16 doubles, one triple, 49 runs scored and 14 stolen bases.

Ritter went 1-for-3 with a two-run single in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Astros.

Ritter gave the Rockies a two-run lead in the fourth inning, when his bloop single to left field brought home Brenton Doyle and Orlando Arcia. Ritter has been getting more work at shorstop with Ezequiel Tovar (oblique) on the injured list since early June. Ritter has reached base safely in seven consecutive games, and over that span he has gone 7-for-22 (.318) with three runs scored, two doubles and three RBI.

Montgomery is expected to be recalled by the White Sox to make his major-league debut Friday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Montgomery was viewed as one of the top shortstop prospects in the league following a sensational 2023 season. He's underwhelmed at Triple-A Charlotte for each of the last two years with a .717 OPS in 185 games, but the White Sox are still ready to give him a chance to presumably take over as their starting shortstop. The move is not yet official, but the promotion will shake up the White Sox's infield, with Josh Rojas looking like a potential playing time loser.

Edwards went 2-for-4 with a steal and two runs scored in Thursday's 4-1 win over Minnesota.

Edwards logged his 15th steal of the season in the third inning before being brought home on a Jesus Sanchez single. Edwards is on a six-game hitting streak and has reached base safely in 11 consecutive games, going 13-for-44 (.295) with three steals, three doubles and four RBI over the latter span.

The Angels selected Stevens' contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Stevens has been with Triple-A Salt Lake all season, slashing .307/.383/.542 with 14 homers, 43 RBI and 48 RBI through 298 plate appearances, and he'll now get his first look in the majors following Christian Moore's (thumb) move to the injured list. The 26-year-old Stevens will make his MLB debut Thursday as the Angels' starting second baseman, though Kevin Newman figures to be the favorite to start at the keystone most days for the Halos going forward.

Bichette (knee) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yankees.

Bichette tweaked his right knee when he stepped on a ball during batting practice prior to Monday's game versus the Yankees, and he will wind up being out of the lineup for all four games of the series. Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that Bichette should be available off the bench, however, and it's "very realistic" the shortstop will be back in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Angels, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Ernie Clement will again handle shortstop, while Will Wagner will be to Clement's right at third base.
