Duran went 1-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Orioles.

Duran broke a 1-1 tie in the top of the seventh inning with a two-run single, sending the Red Sox on to a second straight win over Baltimore. He then stole his 30th bag of the season, tied for sixth in MLB. Duran is 4-for-14 with a double, a home run, three RBI and three runs scored over three games since returning from a two-game suspension.

Schanuel went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs in a loss to Atlanta on Saturday.

Schanuel scored two of the Angels' three runs in the blowout loss. The first baseman notched his second double is as many games after registering just one extra-base hit over his previous 13 contests. After gaining some fantasy traction by hitting .316 in July, Schanuel's batting average stands at .218 through 14 games in August.

Canning (4-11) took the loss against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing seven runs on eight hits and one walk over 4.1 innings while striking out three.

Canning got himself into trouble right out of the gate, allowing three consecutive hits to open the contest, including a three-run shot off the bat of Marcell Ozuna. The right-hander would surrender another run in the second, along with a second long ball in the fifth, marking the first time he's coughed up multiple homers since June 13 against the Diamondbacks. The seven runs charged to Canning on Saturday also marked a season high, and he's now lost three of his last four decisions (spanning eight starts).

O'Neill started in left field and went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over Baltimore.

O'Neill, who missed time due to a leg injury, was reinstated off the injured list and was immediately back in the field. He'd been out since Aug. 2, first due to a stomach illness and then because of the leg issue.

Santander is not in Sunday's lineup against Boston.

Santander will begin Sunday's contest in the dugout after going 2-for-12 with two runs scored and two walks over the first three games of the series. Ryan O'Hearn will start in right field while Eloy Jimenez serves as the designated hitter.

Mize (hamstring) struck out three over 3.1 scoreless innings Tuesday in his second rehab start with Triple-A Toledo. He gave up one hit and one walk and hit a batter while tossing 50 pitches (34 strikes).

Mize has yet to permit a run through his first two rehab outings and has posted a 5:2 K:BB across 5.2 innings. Since he was initially placed on the 15-day injured list July 3 with a strained left hamstring before being transferred to the 60-day IL, Mize won't be eligible for activation until Aug. 30, but he appears well on his way to being ready to reclaim a spot in the Detroit rotation on that date. He's scheduled to make his third rehab start for Toledo on Sunday and will likely make one or two more starts after that before being reinstated from the IL.

Rutschman (back) is starting at catcher and batting fifth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Rutschman was a late scratch from Friday's lineup due to lower-back discomfort, and after sitting Saturday, he's back behind home plate for the series finale. He'll face off against Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford.

Moore is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Moore struck out in all four at-bats in Saturday's 7-2 loss to Pittsburgh. Leo Rivas will start at shortstop and bat ninth against Pirates right-hander Jake Woodford.

Arozarena is absent from Sunday's lineup against the Pirates.

Arozarena struck out in all five at-bats in Saturday's 7-2 loss against the Pirates, and he has a 55.6 percent strikeout rate over his last four games. Arozarena will retreat to the dugout for Sunday's contest, with Luke Raley shifting to left field and Justin Turner starting at first base.

Holton tossed three scoreless innings to earn a hold in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Yankees. He allowed one hit and struck out two.

After starter Keider Montero covered five scoreless innings, Holton preserved Detroit's lead in the sixth, seventh and eighth to earn his ninth hold of the season. The lefty has emerged as the team's most reliable reliever this year, posting a sparkling 2.55 ERA and 0.83 WHIP across 70.2 innings. Among Detroit players who have primarily worked out of the bullpen this season, he leads the team in innings. Holton should remain a trusted relief option moving forward.
