    Mets' Devin Williams: Charged with blown save Monday

    Williams blew the save in Monday's 7-6 extra-inning win against Atlanta. He allowed two runs on three hits and a walk with no strikeouts over two-thirds of an inning.

    Williams entered with a two-run cushion in the ninth inning but was unable to secure the victory, surrendering a game-tying two-run homer to Matt Olson before eventually being lifted for Brooks Raley, who recorded the final out of the frame to send the game to an extra inning. While Williams has been shaky with a 4.85 ERA and 1.65 WHIP across 29.2 innings this season, Monday marked just his second blown save in 15 opportunities. Having pitched in back-to-back games, the right-hander will likely be unavailable for Tuesday's series opener against Kansas City.

  • Braves' Raisel Iglesias: Blows first save of 2026

    Iglesias blew the save in Monday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Mets. He allowed three runs on three hits and no walks while striking out one over one inning.

    Iglesias entered with a one-run cushion in the ninth inning but was unable to secure the victory, surrendering a three-run homer to Juan Soto. Atlanta tied the game in the bottom half of the inning, but New York ultimately prevailed in 10 frames. Monday marked Iglesias' first blown save of the season after he entered the contest a perfect 17-for-17 in save opportunities. The right-hander now owns a 2.37 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB across 30.1 innings in 2026.

  • Reynaldo Lopez RP | ATL

    Braves' Reynaldo Lopez: Solid in no-decision

    Lopez did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over five innings in a 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Mets. He struck out five.

    With the exception of a Carson Benge solo homer in the second inning, Lopez was effective before departing after 80 pitches (52 strikes). In three starts since being moved back into the starting rotation, the right-hander has allowed three runs with a 12:3 K:BB across 13 innings. Overall, Lopez owns a 4-1 record with a 3.18 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 51:24 K:BB across 56.2 innings (21 appearances) and is lined up to make his next start Saturday against the Cardinals.

  • Clayton Beeter RP | WAS

    Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Earns seventh save

    Beeter picked up the save in Monday's 12-11 win over the Astros. He allowed no hits or walks while striking out one over 1.1 innings.

    Entering with a one-run lead and two outs in the eighth inning, Beeter retired all four batters he faced to close out the high-scoring affair. It marked the right-hander's seventh save in 11 opportunities and his first since June 22 against the Phillies. With a 3.00 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 30:18 K:BB across 27 innings, Beeter seems to be the top ninth-inning option in an incredibly weak Nationals bullpen.

  • Miles Mikolas RP | WAS

    Nationals' Miles Mikolas: Allows seven runs in third win

    Mikolas (3-7) earned the win Monday, allowing seven runs on nine hits and two walks over six innings against the Astros. He struck out three.

    Mikolas was roughed up early, allowing six runs across the first three innings, but managed to churn out six frames and was credited with the win thanks to an offensive explosion from the Nationals. It has been a difficult season for the veteran, who has occasionally been able to provide length but has too often been hit hard by opposing offenses. The right-hander owns a 5.78 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 50:19 K:BB across 90.1 innings (19 appearances). Mikolas is awaiting a decision on his appeal of a five-game suspension stemming from Tuesday's benches-clearing incident, which may factor into whether he makes another start before the All-Star break.

  • Dylan Coleman RP | NYY

    Dylan Coleman: Becomes free agent

    Coleman was released by the Yankees on Monday.

    Coleman posted a 2.57 ERA over 21 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but he struggled with his command, resulting in a 26:20 K:BB. He'll be in search of an opportunity elsewhere after being cut loose Monday.

  • Cole Henry RP | WAS

    Nationals' Cole Henry: Jettisoned to Triple-A

    Henry was optioned to Triple-A Rochester after allowed four runs on three hits and one walk while striking out two over 1.2 innings Monday against the Astros.

    Henry will head to the minors after tossing 44 pitches in Monday's victory. He's now surrendered three or more runs in two of his last three appearances in the big leagues. The Nationals will presumably bring up a fresh arm ahead of Tuesday's clash.

  • Giants' Gregory Santos: Sent outright to Triple-A

    The Giants outrighted Santos to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

    The transaction will free up on a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Eric Cerantola, whom the Giants claimed off waivers from the Royals. Santos owns a 6.89 ERA and 1.84 WHIP with an 11:11 K:BB across 15.2 innings at the Triple-A level this season.

  • Justin Bruihl RP | STL

    Cardinals' Justin Bruihl: Suffers ankle sprain

    Bruihl left Monday's game against Milwaukee with a left ankle sprain, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports. He allowed one run on one hit and one walk over 1.1 innings.

    Bruihl appeared to tweak his ankle while fielding an infield dribbler, and he exited the game immediately after the play. He'll presumably be sent for additional testing to determine whether a trip to the injured list is warranted.

  • Braydon Fisher RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Braydon Fisher: Goes on bereavement leave

    The Blue Jays placed Fisher (personal) on the bereavement list Monday.

    Fisher will be away from the team while tending to a personal matter. The righty reliever has posted a 3.33 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 46:21 K:BB while gathering three wins, eight holds and one save across 46 innings this season.
