Dominguez was credited with the win over the Yankees on Wednesday in Game 4 of the American League Division Series. He allowed one walk without a strikeout over 1.2 hitless and scoreless innings.
Dominguez followed Louis Varland and Mason Fluharty in a bullpen game for Toronto and ultimately earned the win, sending Toronto to the ALCS. Acquired from the Orioles at the trade deadline, Dominguez has fit in nicely with the Blue Jays. The veteran righty posted a 3.00 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and eight holds in 21 regular-season innings after coming over from Baltimore, and he's now up to 3.1 scoreless innings this postseason.

While Hoffman was charged with seven blown saves and took seven losses during the regular season, he has allowed just two earned runs in his last 14 appearances dating back to late August, converting all five of his save chances in that span.

Guardians' Nic Enright: Set for Tommy John surgery
Enright will undergo Tommy John surgery soon, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
Enright has been sidelined since early September with an injury to his pitching arm, and it's been determined surgery is the best course of treatment.

Reid Detmers RP | LAA
Angels' Reid Detmers: Will move back into rotation
Angels general manager Perry Minasian said Saturday that Detmers (elbow) will move back into the rotation in 2026, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.
Detmers pitched well in his first season as a full-time reliever in 2025, posting a 3.96 ERA and 80:25 K:BB over 63.2 innings. However, Minasian feels the southpaw has "earned" another shot to be a starting pitcher in 2026 and is "a different guy" than the one who held a 4.90 ERA over 75 starts from 2021-24. Detmers struck out 418 batters across 385.2 frames during the latter stretch, so he's displayed strong swing-and-miss stuff as a starter. The lefty ended this season on the 60-day injured list with an injured pitching elbow, but he's expected to recover with rest.

Andres Munoz RP | SEA
Mariners' Andres Munoz: Nabs save in Game 2
Munoz retired the side in order in the ninth inning against the Tigers on Sunday to earn the save in Game 2 of the American League Division Series. He struck out one batter.
After the M's took the lead in the bottom of the eighth, Munoz nailed down the win -- the organization's first home playoff win since 2001. Munoz took a loss to the Dodgers during the final weekend of the regular season, ending a streak of nine consecutive scoreless appearances, but he's bounced back in a big way with three perfect innings so far in the ALDS, and he now has his first career postseason save. The 26-year-old right-hander has emerged as one of the game's top closers, posting a 1.73 ERA and 1.03 WHIP to go along with a career-high 38 saves during the regular season.
