Los Angeles Angels shortstop
Zach Neto (wrist) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. This marks the third game in a row that Neto will miss after injuring his hand during Thursday's contest. At this point, it wouldn't be shocking to see Neto land on the injured list. For now, the Angels will take it day-by-day and keep Neto on the bench.
Denzer Guzman will draw his second straight start at shortstop during Sunday's game. He could offer some deep league value if Neto does land on the shelf.

San Diego Padres first baseman
Luis Arraez (head) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Arraez was removed during Saturday's game after getting hit in the head by a ball during pre-inning warmups. The team has decided to take the cautious approach and hold him out of this game. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day.
Ryan O'Hearn will cover first base while
Jake Cronenworth plays second base during Sunday's contest. The expectation is that Arraez will be back in the lineup early next week.

Texas Rangers outfielder
Adolis Garcia (quadriceps) was activated from the 10-day injured list and is in the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Mets. Garcia is in right field and batting cleanup after missing nearly two weeks of action due to a quad injury. It has been a down year for Garcia, but he remains a threat to go deep at any time. He has 18 home runs, 73 RBI, and 13 steals across 125 games this season. Fantasy managers who have Garcia rostered should get him activated on Sunday.

Houston Astros second baseman
Jose Altuve (foot) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Altuve will head to the bench after exiting early during Saturday's game due to right foot discomfort. The Astros will take the cautious approach and hold out Altuve for at least one game. Fantasy managers should check back on Monday for another update on his status. For now, fantasy managers should consider Altuve as day-to-day.
Zach Cole takes over in left field while
Mauricio Dubon plays second base on Sunday.

San Diego Padres third baseman
Manny Machado is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Machado will receive his first rest day of the season after playing in the first 149 games of the season. He has earned a rest day after going 4-for-10 with two home runs and four RBI through the first three games of the series.
Jose Iglesias will take over at third base and bat seventh versus right-hander
German Marquez. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly.

Cincinnati Reds catching prospect
Alfredo Duno and corner infield prospect
Cam Collier are two top 100 prospects for the Reds who will be participating in the Arizona Fall League (AFL) this year. The season kicks off on October 6, and these two, along with four other Reds prospects, will compete for the Peoria Javelinas. Duno, the Reds' third-ranked prospect, had a phenomenal year at Single-A, hitting .287 with 18 home runs and recording an elite .430 OBP because he was able to draw more walks (95) than strikeouts (91). Collier, the Reds' sixth-ranked prospect, had a down year compared to 2024 when he hit 20 home runs at High-A, as he hit just one home run in 71 games at Double-A while batting .252. The strikeout rate was high (27.6 percent), but he drew walks at a strong rate (15.0 percent). The 20-year-old former first-rounder missed the first couple of months of play due to a thumb injury suffered in spring training, so he can use the AFL to make up for lost time.

Los Angeles Angels second baseman
Christian Moore was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday and drew the start at second base for the Halos. He batted fifth in the order and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in the contest. The 2024 first-rounder made quick work of the minors, making it all the way to the big leagues by mid-June this year, but struggled to a .195/.287/.336 slash line before getting sent back to Triple-A at the beginning of September. In his brief stint back in the minors, the 22-year-old was just 5-for-40 (.175), but hopefully he's able to get back on track with the big league club. For now, Moore can be left on the waiver wire.

Cincinnati Reds pitching prospect
Rhett Lowder (oblique) began a rehab assignment on Saturday at Triple-A Louisville. The Reds' second-ranked prospect has dealt with both a forearm and an oblique injury this season, which has limited him to just three appearances at Triple-A this year, including Saturday's start. The right-hander allowed one earned run on two hits and no walks while striking out two over two innings of work in the rehab outing. The 23-year-old now has his sights on getting healthy and prepared for 2026, which should see him back in the majors at some point. The former seventh overall draft pick made six starts for the Reds in 2024, posting a 1.17 ERA (3.10 FIP), 1.27 WHIP, and just a 6.3 percent K-BB% in 30 2/3 innings. While the ERA was stellar, his FIP suggests the results may look better than they should have been, and his low strikeout rate is going to limit his fantasy value unless that rate goes up next time around.

Los Angeles Angels infield prospect
Denzer Guzman was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday for his major league debut. The Angels' ninth-ranked prospect was having a solid season, which began at Double-A and continued at Triple-A in early August, slashing .247/.343/.426 in all with a .359 wOBA and 119 wRC+, but had been hitting even better as of late. The 21-year-old was 9-for-23 (.391) over his last seven games before his call-up. With 17 home runs on the season and 14 steals as well, there is some pop and speed in his game, but fantasy managers may want to take a wait-and-see approach with Guzman before adding him to rosters. The right-handed slugger started at shortstop and batted seventh in his debut on Saturday, going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts.

Chicago Cubs outfield prospect
Owen Caissie (concussion) was recalled by the team on Saturday, but in his first game back, the Cubs' top-ranked prospect ran into the wall in the Wrigley outfield chasing down a ball in the third inning. He initially stayed in the game, but left in the sixth inning with concussion symptoms. The 23-year-old was 5-for-14 (.357) in the three games at Triple-A prior to his call-up, and was hitting .286 with 22 home runs on the season, but has yet to translate that success to the majors in his limited playing time. The left-handed slugger will likely head to the injured list, and although it appears he won't be of much use to fantasy managers in 2025, there is still hope for 2026 and beyond.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher
Jacob Misiorowski didn't look like himself on the mound during Saturday's outing against the St. Louis Cardinals. Misiorowski had trouble keeping the ball in the yard as he allowed two home runs early. He wasn't really able to settle down at all during this outing. The right-hander tossed five innings, allowing four runs on seven hits while striking out four batters in the no-decision. Misiorowski has allowed three earned runs or more in five of his last six starts. He'll hope to get back on track in a rematch against the Cardinals next week.

San Diego Padres starting pitcher
Dylan Cease was excellent on the mound during Saturday's outing against the Colorado Rockies. The right-hander tossed six innings, allowing one run on five hits while striking out six batters in the win. Cease had good command in this one as he walked only one batter during this outing. That's the fewest number of batters he has walked in a start since August 3. He'll take a 4.59 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, and a 201/66 K/BB ratio across 30 starts into his next outing against the Chicago White Sox. Cease will be an elite fantasy option for that game.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher
Bryan Woo had some outstanding swing-and-miss stuff going for him during Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. He got hit around early, giving up two runs in the second inning. After that, Woo settled down and looked untouchable over the next few innings. He tossed six innings, allowing two runs on three hits while striking out a career-high 13 strikeouts in the win. Woo has been excellent throughout most of the season as he takes a 3.02 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 191 strikeouts into his next start against the Houston Astros.

Athletics first baseman
Nick Kurtz was quiet with the bat throughout most of Saturday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Kurtz put the game out of reach with a 493-foot grand slam off right-hander
Scott Barlow in the eighth inning. It was his only hit of the day as he went 1-for-5 with that blast being his lone contribution on offense. It was his second career grand slam and certainly an epic one as it went nearly 500 feet. The rookie slugger is currently the front runner for Rookie of the Year. He's slashing .298/.391/.622 with 31 home runs and 78 RBI in 104 games.

September 14, 2025
Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman
Max Muncy (head) was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants. It doesn't seem that Muncy can catch a break lately. He returned to the lineup on Saturday after being hit in the forearm during Friday's contest. Muncy was pulled from Saturday's game after getting hit in the head by a pitch. The assumption is that he'll undergo testing for a possible concussion. Before exiting, he went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day.
Enrique Hernandez took over at third base and figures to see more playing time there if Muncy misses time.
