  • Nick Sogard 2B | BOS

    Red Sox's Nick Sogard: Knocks two doubles in win

    Sogard started at first base and went 2-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over Kansas City. He was also hit by a pitch and caught stealing.

    Sogard, who made a fourth consecutive start at first base, got involved offensively late in the game. He doubled and scored in the seventh inning and then knocked in Boston's final run with an eighth-inning double. Sogard and Mickey Gasper have been filling in for the injured Willson Contreras (hamstring) at first base.

    Tigers' Max Clark: Keeps rolling Saturday

    Clark went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 11-7 win over the Rockies.

    A day after launching a home run against Colorado, Clark kept rolling with his third three-hit performance of the month. In September, the dynamic rookie is slashing .382/.500/.588 with a home run, three stolen bases, five RBI and eight runs scored across 10 games. Clark is trending up as he wraps up his first MLB campaign, and he figures to carry plenty of momentum into 2027.

  • Joc Pederson DH | TEX

    Rangers' Joc Pederson: X-rays negative after HBP

    Pederson had X-rays on his hand come back negative after being hit by a pitch during Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

    The 34-year-old initially remained in to run the bases after the hit-by-pitch but was eventually replaced by a pinch hitter. The results of the initial X-rays are encouraging, but Pederson is still scheduled to undergo further testing to determine the full extent of the injury. The slugger wasn't likely to be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale regardless of the injury since lefty Eduardo Rodriguez is taking the mound for Arizona.

  • Beau Brieske RP | DET

    Tigers' Beau Brieske: Records first 2026 win

    Brieske (1-0) allowed a run in 1.2 innings of relief but managed to earn the win in Saturday's 11-7 victory over the Rockies. He struck out two.

    Brieske served up a solo home run to Ezequiel Tovar but otherwise pitched well to earn just his second win since the beginning of 2025. The righty reliever was called up Sept. 1 after last pitching in the majors in July. Brieske looks like a low-leverage relief option the rest of the way for the Tigers, which limits his fantasy upside.

  • Red Sox's Anthony Seigler: Suffers wrist injury Saturday

    Seigler was removed from Saturday's game after experiencing pain in his right wrist following a swing, MLB.com reports. He hurt the wrist in the fourth inning and was eventually removed in the seventh.

    Seigler, who was called up to Boston on Friday as a replacement for Eli White (foot), started at second base before departing. He was replaced by Isiah Kiner-Falefa. Seigler underwent further testing and evaluation following the game.

  • Nathan Eovaldi SP | TEX

    Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi: Used in relief Saturday

    Eovaldi allowed one run on four hits while striking out two over 2.2 innings of relief in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Eovaldi was needed for multiple innings in a game where starter Kumar Rocker was lifted after four-plus innings. The former opted to rejoin the Rangers following a stint on the injured list without a rehab assignment and is expected to serve as a multi-inning reliever. The live batting-practice sessions he threw while rehabbing lasted two innings apiece.

  • Ezequiel Duran SS | TEX

    Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Snaps hitless run

    Duran went 1-for-5 with two RBI in Saturday's 6-2 win over Arizona.

    Duran snapped an 0-for-19 skid with a two-run single during the Rangers' six-run fifth inning. The two RBI raised his season total to 80, which ranks second on the team behind Jake Burger's 83.

  • Robert Garcia RP | TEX

    Rangers' Robert Garcia: Earns win Saturday

    Garcia (1-1) struck out one over a scoreless fifth inning to earn the win Saturday over the Diamondbacks.

    After Texas scored six times in the top of the fifth to take a 6-1 lead, starter Kumar Rocker began the bottom of the frame with two consecutive walks and was replaced by Garcia, who then got credited with the win. This was the reliever's third appearance since returning to the active roster last week. The left-hander has not allowed a hit, walk or run while striking out four over three innings.

  • Josh Naylor 1B | SEA

    Mariners' Josh Naylor: Supplies three hits

    Naylor went 3-for-5 with a double, one RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 19-1 win over the Athletics.

    Naylor is batting .298 (14-for-47) in September, with this being his fourth multi-hit effort in 11 games this month. The double was his third extra-base hit of the month. Naylor is batting .270 with a .688 OPS, 10 home runs, 50 RBI, 56 runs scored, 21 doubles and 27 stolen bases over 139 contests.

  • Mariners' Julio Rodriguez: Gets on base four times

    Rodriguez went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Saturday's 19-1 win over the Athletics.

    Rodriguez has gone 6-for-16 over four games since he was dropped to fifth in the batting order. The outfielder was one of five Mariners to collect at least three hits in Saturday's onslaught of offense. For the season, Rodriguez is batting .243 with a .701 OPS, 21 home runs, 65 RBI, 68 runs scored, 22 doubles and 20 stolen bases over 138 contests, putting him in line for the worst year of his career in most categories.
