Atlanta outrighted Logue to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

Logue was removed from the 40-man roster over the weekend and will remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 28-year-old has spent all of the 2024 season in the minors, holding a 2.58 ERA and 90:28 K:BB over 94.1 innings between Double-A Mississippi and Gwinnett.

Faucher gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless inning of relief Wednesday, getting charged with his second blown save of the season in a 4-3 extra-inning win over the Nationals. He struck out one.

With the Marlins ahead 3-0, Mike Baumann took the mound to begin the eighth inning but immediately ran into trouble, loading the bases without recording an out. Faucher was quickly brought in, but he walked in a run before giving up an RBI groundout and a James Wood double that tied the game. Despite the stumble, Faucher has had runs charged to his own ledger only twice in his last 13 appearances, posting a 2.08 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB in 13 innings over that stretch while converting six of seven save chances.

Bellozo came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Nationals, allowing three hits and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out one.

The rookie right-hander was far from dominant, producing only seven swinging strikes among his 85 pitches, but Bellozo minimized any hard contact and left the mound with the Marlins clinging to a 1-0 lead. The quality start was his second in nine big-league outings, and it was a strong bounce-back effort after he's been tagged for 12 runs (11 earned) over his last 8.2 innings. Bellozo will carry a 3.78 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 33:17 K:BB through 47.2 frames into his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week in Pittsburgh.

Gore came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Marlins, allowing one run on one hit and one walk over six innings. He struck out nine.

The southpaw retired the first 16 batters he faced, but a walk followed by a Nick Fortes RBI double ended any shot at history Gore might have had. The quality start was his eighth of the season, tying the career high he set in 2023, and he seems to have turned things around after a rough patch coming out of the All-Star break -- over his last three outings, all quality starts, Gore has a 2.00 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 19:2 K:BB in 18 innings. He'll look to keep rolling in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home early next week against Atlanta.

Merrill went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and two runs scored in Wednesday's extra-inning win over Detroit.

Merrill tallied hits in each of his first two at-bats, including a three-run homer off Keider Montero in the fourth to put the Padres on the board. The rookie outfielder would also add a ground rule double in the seventh before later scoring the game-winning run on a walk-off single from Fernando Tatis in the bottom of the 10th. Merrill continues to swing a hot bat and has now homered in three of his last six games, posting seven RBI and four runs over that stretch. He's also hit safely in 10 of his last 12 contests, while the long ball was his 22nd of the campaign.

Clemens went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Clemens put the Phillies ahead for good in the second inning with a two-run blast off Bowden Francis, his fourth long ball of the year. Since he was recalled Sep. 1, the 28-year-old Clemens has gone 2-for-8 with three runs scored and three RBI. Overall, he's slashing .243/.274/.529 with 11 runs scored and 13 RBI in 73 plate appearances. While Clemens has primarily filled a bench role for the Phillies, he could see more playing time down the stretch with both Alec Bohm (hand) and Bryce Harper (elbow) nursing injuries.

Arraez went 2-for-5 with a stolen base, a walk and a run scored in Wednesday's extra-inning win over the Tigers.

Arraez grounded out in each of his first two trips to the plate before leading off the bottom of the fifth with a single and eventually coming around to score on a two-RBI knock from Manny Machado. The infielder would later add a second single, along with his ninth steal of the season in the sixth, marking his second-consecutive game with two hits and a stolen base. Arraez has recorded multiple hits in five of his last seven contests overall, batting .466 (14-for-30) over that stretch with four RBI, three stolen bases and five runs scored.

Realmuto went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 victory over the Blue Jays.

Realmuto took Ryan Burr deep to lead off the top of the ninth inning, adding an insurance run in Philadelphia's two-run win. It's the fourth homer in 11 games for Realmuto, who's gone 14-for-32 (.326) with a 1.039 OPS in that span. The 33-year-old backstop is now slashing .261/.317/.422 through 357 plate appearances this season with 12 homers, 38 RBI, 43 runs scored and a pair of stolen bases.

Fraley went 1-for-4 with a walk, a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 12-5 win over Houston.

Fraley got in on the action during the Reds' nine-run first inning, working a walk, stealing a base and scoring the team's fifth run. The swipe was Fraley's 18th of the season and second in as many games.

France went 3-for-4 with a stolen base, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 12-5 win over the Astros.

France followed up his four-hit game Monday with another three hits Wednesday. The stolen base was his first of the season and second during a six-year MLB career. He's on a bit of a roll, going 14-for-32 (.438) with three doubles, five walks, four RBI and five runs scored over the last nine contests.
