Wilcox was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The 26-year-old righty made his big-league debut Friday, giving up seven runs (three earned) on four hits and three walks in one inning against the Red Sox. Wilcox has a 3.71 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 57:27 K:BB in 51 innings as a multi-inning reliever at Triple-A.

Scholtens was recalled from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Scholtens, who was claimed off waivers by Tampa Bay on Aug. 4 after he was designated for assignment by the White Sox, has a 4.13 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 43:9 K:BB in 32.2 innings across seven starts for the Bulls. The 31-year-old righty hasn't pitched in the majors since 2023, when he logged a 5.29 ERA and 1.53 WHIP in 85 innings for the White Sox. He'll likely work as a low-leverage reliever capable of getting more than three outs.

Vientos is not in Saturday's lineup against the Nationals.

The 25-year-old third baseman had started 12 of the last 14 games, with his two off days coming against righties. Vientos is hitting .179 with two home runs and 19 strikeouts in 17 games this month. Brett Baty will man the hot corner while Starling Marte gets the start at designated hitter against righty Cade Cavalli.

Moore went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Colorado.

Moore put the Angels on the board with a two-run homer that tied the score 2-2 in the second inning. The rookie second baseman has been flashing his power of late, belting three homers in six games since being called back up to the big leagues Sept. 13. His other two hits during that span have been doubles, though he's also struck out nine times in 20 plate appearances.

Garcia isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

After going 0-for-4 in Friday's series opener, Garcia will step out of the starting nine Saturday while Nasim Nunez starts at second base and bats ninth.

Lee isn't in the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

Lee will grab a seat on the bench to begin Saturday's twin bill after going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts Friday. Ryan Fitzgerald will start at shortstop and bat seventh for the Twins.

Guzman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in a loss to the Rockies on Friday.

Guzman hit the second of two Angels homers in the second inning, going 415 feet deep to left field. It was his second home run (and fourth overall hit) through six games as a pro. Though he's shown good pop during his short time in the majors, Guzman has also struck out in a whopping 12 of his 20 plate appearances.

Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Baltimore.

Chisholm accounted for the Yankees' only runs in the game with his homer to right-center field in the seventh inning. The long ball was his 30th of the campaign (a career high) and, paired with his 30 thefts, put him in rarified air as just the third Yankees player with a 30-30 season (Bobby Bonds and Alfonso Soriano are the others). Juan Soto of the Mets is the only other MLB player to reach the 30-30 mark so far this season.

Kayfus isn't in the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against Minnesota.

Kayfus snapped his five-game hitting streak with an 0-for-2 performance Friday, and he'll stay put in the dugout to begin Saturday's festivities. Kyle Manzardo will get the nod at first base, and George Valera will cover right field with Kayfus out.

Patrick is slated to start Saturday's game in St. Louis, Sophia Minnaert of FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin reports.

Since making a 4.1-inning spot start versus the Rangers back on Sept. 10, Patrick has shifted back to the bullpen. After striking out four batters across a pair of scoreless innings Sunday versus the Cardinals and Tuesday versus the Angels, Patrick will step back into the rotation this weekend as a replacement to Jose Quintana (calf), who was placed on the injured list. Though Patrick has mostly been outside of the big-league rotation since the All-Star break, he's been effective over his 24 outings (21 starts) for Milwaukee in 2025, logging a 3.64 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 116:37 K:BB across 111.1 innings.
