Lamet allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and a pair of walks, striking out two over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Tuesday.

Lamet carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning, but it all unraveled there. The right-hander allowed back-to-back singles to Cody Bellinger and Corey Seager, the latter causing two runs to score when center fielder Trent Grisham committed an error. Tough ending aside, Lamet had another strong outing. He's posted a 1.72 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with 17 strikeouts in 15.2 innings this season. His next turn on the mound is expected to come on the road Monday as a rematch versus the Dodgers.

Jansen pitched a perfect ninth inning with a strikeout to earn the save in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Padres.

Jansen retired Tommy Pham, Jake Cronenworth and Abraham Almonte in order in the ninth to earn his third save of the season. He's yet to give up a run in 2020, allowing just one hit and two walks with five strikeouts in five innings this season. The 32-year-old has a firm grasp on the Dodgers' closer gig.

Hudson allowed one walk and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Tuesday against the Mets.

Hudson was called upon to protect a 5-3 lead, and successfully did so on 14 pitches to record his second save of the season. The only baserunner he allowed came on a walk with two outs, and Hudson retired the next batter he faced to end the contest. Notably, Hudson has claimed both saves for the Nationals this season, and Sean Doolittle did not even appear in a setup role in the contest.

Kimbrel allowed two earned runs on two hits while retiring just a single batter in a 5-4 win over the Royals Tuesday.

Leading 5-2, the Cubs decided to let Kimbrel get another shot at the ninth inning, but after allowing a single and a double sandwiched around a strikeout, the veteran got the hook. Kyle Ryan allowed both inherited runners to score but hung on for the save. Kimbrel now has a 32.40 ERA this season, and at this point, it's hard to see him getting many more save opportunities in the near future. Rowan Wick and Jeremy Jeffress figure to benefit.

Antone will start Wednesday's game against the Indians, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

The Reds needed to adjust their rotation coming off the postponement and subsequent doubleheader over the weekend in Detroit, so Antone will step up for the spot start in Cleveland. The 26-year-old made his major-league debut July 27 against the Cubs and had a strong showing, allowing one run on one hit and a walk while striking out five over 4.1 innings.

Yamamoto was recalled by the Marlins on Tuesday.

The move was anticipated as Yamamoto will fill a role on the pitching staff amid the Marlins' COVID-19 outbreak. With several starters recovering from the coronavirus, the right-hander should claim a role in the rotation. However, manager Don Mattingly has emphasized that the pitching staff will have to be flexible with their roles in the coming days. Yamamoto made 15 starts and recorded a 4.46 ERA and 1.14 ERA over 78.2 innings last season.

Garcia (undisclosed) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, Jared Diamond of The Wall Street Journal reports.

Garcia was among the 13 Marlins placed on the injured list ahead of the team's return to play after a COVID-19 outbreak. However, a specific reason for Garcia's placement on the injured list wasn't announced.

Stanek (undisclosed) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, Jared Diamond of The Wall Street Journal reports.

Stanek was among the 13 Marlins placed on the injured list ahead of the team's return to play after a COVID-19 outbreak. However, a specific reason for Stanek's placement on the injured list wasn't announced.

Guzman was recalled by the Marlins on Tuesday.

The righty reliever is set to join the big-league club for the first time in his career. Guzman locked in a steady 3.50 ERA and 8.27 K/9 at Double-A Jacksonville in 2019 but had some command issues, issuing 71 free passes over 138.2 innings.

Shafer was recalled by the Marlins on Tuesday.

The ex-Red is set to join his new club as the Marlins resume play Tuesday. Shafer was an in-season waiver claim and is likely to serve as low-leverage bullpen depth for the time being.
