Tyler Holton RP | DET
Tigers' Tyler Holton: Pitches well but takes loss
Holton (1-2) allowed an unearned run across two innings of relief to take the loss Sunday against the Royals in 10 innings. He struck out three.
Holton didn't allow any hits or walks, but a Bobby Witt sac fly in the bottom of the 10th inning brought home the automatic baserunner and gave Kansas City a 4-3 win. The lefty reliever hasn't allowed an earned run across his last five appearances, during which he's struck out six batters in 5.1 innings. For the season, Holton now has a stellar 1.54 ERA as he continues to serve as a reliable bullpen option for the Tigers despite the losing record.

Emmanuel Clase RP | CLE
Guardians' Emmanuel Clase: Blows save, collects win
Clase (3-0) blew the save but collected the win Sunday against the Pirates in a game that went 10 innings. He allowed three runs on four hits and one walk with no strikeouts over an inning.
Entering on a streak of three consecutive scoreless outings and pitching on the third straight day, Clase unraveled in this appearance and picked up his second blown save. This game marked the Cleveland closer's second time allowing four hits in 2025 after going all of the 2024 regular season without one such instance. Clase's confounding start to the season continues, as he's now pitched to an abysmal 7.84 ERA, 2.23 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB across 10.1 innings.

Joey Cantillo SP | CLE
Guardians' Joey Cantillo: Secures extra-inning save
Cantillo earned the save in Sunday's 5-4 win at Pittsburgh, pitching a scoreless inning while allowing no hits and one walk. He had no strikeouts.
After Emmanuel Clase blew the save in the ninth inning, Cantillo locked up the win with his first career save in the extra frame. The 25-year-old southpaw has shined in a bullpen role, pitching to a 1.59 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB across 11.1 innings. If Cantillo keeps pitching well, he could see more chances in high-leverage situations like Sunday.

Randy Wynne RP | CIN
Reds' Randy Wynne: Bags three-inning save
Wynne picked up the save in Sunday's 24-2 win over Baltimore, allowing one run on three hits and one walk over three innings. He struck out three.
The 32-year-old right-hander was called up Sunday as Carson Spiers (shoulder) was placed on the injured list and secured a save in his season debut. Wynne had pitched to a 3.06 ERA across 17.2 innings at Triple-A before his call-up. He is not expected to be serve a significant role in the Cincinnati bullpen going forward.

Brent Suter RP | ATL
Reds' Brent Suter: Fills in admirably against Orioles
Suter took a no-decision Sunday at Baltimore. He struck out one over three scoreless innings while yielding three hits and no walks.
The veteran southpaw was called upon to sub in for Carson Spiers (shoulder), who hit the injured list before this game. Suter was solid, generating six whiffs out of his 63 total pitches. With this effort, the 35-year-old now sports a 1.86 ERA and 0.83 WHIP across 9.2 innings. Suter probably will not make another start, as Nick Lodolo (personal) should return soon to fill the empty rotation spot.

Steven Matz RP | TB
Cardinals' Steven Matz: Start being skipped
Matz's turn through the rotation will be skipped for the upcoming series against Atlanta, which begins Monday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
The left-hander made his first start of the season last Wednesday and was expected to operate as St. Louis' No. 6 starter going forward, but the club will temporarily move him back to the bullpen due to Thursday's team off day. Matz is expected to re-enter the rotation next weekend versus Milwaukee, and he's likely to get at least a couple turns since the Cardinals have a stretch of 13 straight games from April 25 to May 7.

Evan Justice RP | COL
Rockies' Evan Justice: DFA'd by Colorado
The Rockies designated Justice for assignment Sunday.
The left-hander has been at Triple-A Albuquerque for the first few weeks of the season, but he's lost his place on the 40-man roster after giving up six earned runs with a 6:9 K:BB in his first five outings. Justice could remain with the Isotopes if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Zach Agnos RP | COL
Rockies' Zach Agnos: Promoted Sunday
The Rockies selected Agnos' contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.
The right-hander was unable to secure a spot on Colorado's Opening Day roster but will get his first taste of the majors as Victor Vodnik (shoulder) heads to the injured list. Agnos posted a 1.38 ERA and 63:11 K:BB across 52.1 innings between the High-A and Double-A levels last year, and he's continued to pitch well at Triple-A early in 2025. He's recorded 46 saves during his minor-league career but will likely need to work his way into a high-leverage role for the Rockies.

Victor Vodnik RP | MIA
Rockies' Victor Vodnik: Lands on injured list
The Rockies placed Vodnik on the 15-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to April 17, due to right shoulder inflammation.
The right-hander may have begun experiencing the inflammation following his last appearance Wednesday against the Dodgers, during which he struck out three and walked two in a scoreless inning. Vodnik and Seth Halvorsen have a save apiece for the Rockies this year, and the latter could see more chances while Vodnik is sidelined. Zach Agnos was added to the big-league roster in a corresponding move but is likely to fill a low-leverage role in his first stint in the majors.

Blake Treinen RP | LAD
Dodgers' Blake Treinen: Managing low-grade sprain
Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that an MRI on Treinen's forearm showed a low-grade sprain, and the right-hander will begin a conservative rehab program, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
The 36-year-old landed on the injured list Saturday with a concerning diagnosis of forearm tightness, but the MRI indicates he's not dealing with a serious injury. Treinen will be eligible to return from the injured list in early May, though he could be sidelined a bit longer depending on the specifics of his rehab program. Tanner Scott should continue to operate as the Dodgers' main closer, with Kirby Yates and Evan Phillips potentially seeing some save chances while primarily working as setup men.
