Malloy went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 9-2 win over the Twins.

Malloy singled in the third for his only hit of the game and wound up swiping second base before the inning concluded for the first steal of his MLB career. Malloy does have a hit in four straight games now, but overall, it's been a struggle for the 24-year-old to get acclimated to big league pitching so far. He's slashing .197/.284/.394 with four homers, eight RBI, eight runs and a 7:31 BB:K in 81 plate appearances.

O'Hearn went 2-for-3 with a double, a homer, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over Seattle while also drawing a walk.

O'Hearn reached in each of his first three trips to the plate, smacking a two-run double in the third and a solo homer in the fifth, with the latter extending Baltimore's lead to four runs. It was the first baseman's third consecutive game with multiple hits, while he's also reached safely in 15 straight. O'Hearn is now 4-for-7 (.571) with two doubles, a homer and three RBI through just two games to open the month of July after batting .321 with 16 RBI in June.

Martinez is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

Martinez returned to action Wednesday after missing one game due to ankle soreness, but he'll head back to the bench for Thursday's 11:05 AM ET start. DJ Stewart will bat fifth as the designated hitter in the series finale at Washington.

Alvarez went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, a walk, three runs and three RBI in a 9-2 victory versus the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

Alvarez was a constant thorn in Toronto's side in the contest. He plated Houston's first run with a third-inning double, added a tiebreaking solo shot in the sixth inning and produced another RBI with a double in the eighth. Alvarez has gone deep in each of his past three contests, batting .545 (6-for-11) with three long balls, eight RBI and six runs over that span.

Peralta went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Rangers.

Peralta has slipped into a bench role after batting just .209 over 23 games in June. This was his first start since June 23, and he made the most of it by providing the Padres' winning hit, a two-run homer in the seventh inning, which was Peralta's first long ball this year. He's slashing a meager .210/.300/.290 with six RBI, seven runs scored and no stolen bases over 70 plate appearances. Bryce Johnson, who is hitting .182 on the year, has handled right field lately, but Peralta may claw back some playing time if he can build on Wednesday's performance.

Machado went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Rangers.

Machado has picked up the pace in the power department with five homers over his last 12 contests. He's batting .354 (17-for-48) in that span while adding 14 RBI. The third baseman is up to .264/.314/.411 slash line with 11 homers, 47 RBI, 39 runs scored and five stolen bases over 82 contests. Considering he's exceeded 30 homers seven times in his career, it shouldn't be surprising if he has a big second half in 2024, though his slow start could prevent him from reaching that milestone this year.

Garver (wrist) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

Garver will sit for a second straight game after he was struck in the right wrist by a pitch in Sunday's game against the Twins. Jorge Polanco will serve as the designated hitter Wednesday and bat sixth against Orioles right-hander Dean Kremer.

The Blue Jays placed Turner on the paternity leave list Wednesday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Turner will miss a maximum of three games while awaiting the birth of his child, starting with Wednesday's matchup against the Astros. Assuming he is out for the next three games, his return is slated for Saturday's contest against the Mariners. Steward Berroa was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo to take Turner's spot on the 26-man roster.

Martinez (ankle) will be in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

The 36-year-old was scratched from Tuesday's starting nine due to ankle soreness, which apparently surfaced because he was forced to try out a new pair of cleats. Martinez has since received another shipment of his usual cleats and shouldn't have any issues going forward.

Grossman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against San Diego.

Grossman is absent from the Rangers starting lineup for a second straight night, with Adolis Garcia filling in at DH while Travis Jankowski plays right field. Grossman has just two hits in his last 15 at-bats.
