Mariners' Michael Arroyo: Raps out three hits
Arroyo went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Angels.
This is Arroyo's second multi-hit effort in a row and his fourth overall. The 21-year-old is now batting .353 over 14 games in the majors, adding one home run, two stolen bases, four RBI and five runs scored. Arroyo's plate discipline is already evident -- he has a 5:6 BB:K, and that should help him as he tries to make a full-time adjustment to the majors moving forward.

Tigers' Hao-Yu Lee: Reaches four times in win
Lee went 2-for-3 with two walks, a double and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Pirates.
Lee continued his strong recent stretch of a play with another multi-hit performance. Over his last eight games, the rookie infielder is batting .371 with a home run, four runs scored and four RBI. Lee will get one more chance to add to his stats if he's in the lineup Sunday before turning his attention toward 2027. The 23-year-old has shown plenty of promise and figures to be a key part of Detroit's future plans.

Nicky Lopez 2B | TEX
Rangers' Nicky Lopez: Leaves Saturday's game
Lopez (ankle/heel) was removed from Saturday's game against the Twins, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Per Wilson, Lopez tweaked his left ankle/heel while trying to beat out a bunt at the top of the third inning, and he initially stayed in defensively before being replaced by Cody Freeman in the fourth. The Rangers should have an update on Lopez's status for Sunday's game once the veteran infielder undergoes more tests.

White Sox's Chase Meidroth: Sitting again Saturday
Meidroth (hamstring) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.
Meidroth will get another day off to recover from a hamstring issue that's been bothering him as the White Sox aim to get him as healthy as possible for the postseason. Sam Antonacci will start at second base as a result, opening up left field for Randal Grichuk.

Luke Keaschall 2B | MIN
Twins' Luke Keaschall: Finishes homer shy of cycle
Keaschall went 4-for-5 with a double, a triple, three RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 10-2 win over the Rangers.
Keaschall spearheaded Minnesota's offensive explosion against Jacob deGrom. His two-run triple capped the biggest portion of the Twins' six-run second inning, and he subsequently scored on a wild pitch before adding an RBI double in the fourth. Keaschall singled in the sixth and later scored on Kody Clemens' two-run homer, leaving him a home run shy of the cycle. It was the second four-hit performance of his career, with his first coming Sept. 4, 2025. Keaschall is ending the regular season on a strong note, as he's hitting .305 with an .822 OPS across 21 games since the beginning of September.

Mariners' Michael Arroyo: Registers steal in loss
Arroyo went 2-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Angels.
Arroyo has hit safely in just five of his 13 games in the majors, but three of those instances have included multiple hits. The rookie is batting .310 with an .883 OPS, one home run, two steals, four RBI, four runs scored and two doubles over 35 plate appearances. Consistency is still a work in progress, but Arroyo is poised to compete for an everyday job in the not-too-distant future.

Christian Moore 2B | LAA
Angels' Christian Moore: Blasts homer in win
Moore went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 7-5 win over the Mariners.
Moore has gone 7-for-23 (.304) with eight RBI over his last seven games. The infielder has also struck out nine times in that span, but he has turned things around after a slump in mid-September. For the season, he's hitting just .186 with a .516 OPS, two homers, 18 RBI, four runs scored, four doubles, one triple and one stolen base over 139 plate appearances. With a 33.8 percent strikeout rate in the majors this year, Moore has failed to demonstrate a more patient approach at the plate, which has kept his overall offense limited.

White Sox's Chase Meidroth: Battling hamstring discomfort
Meidroth is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies due to left hamstring discomfort, James Fegan of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Manager Will Venable downplayed the issue, saying that the 25-year-old is available off the bench. However, Meidroth is reportedly playing through a variety of injuries, and with Chicago now locked into the playoffs, it wouldn't be surprising to see him receive additional rest over the final weekend of the regular season.

White Sox's Chase Meidroth: On bench Friday
Meidroth is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies.
Meidroth has been running hot lately, collecting multiple hits in each of his last three games and slashing .385/.429/.615 over his last 10 games. However, he will get a breather Friday as the White Sox go with Sam Antonacci at second base and Randal Grichuk in left field against right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano.
