Suarez struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.

Suarez's scoreless streak is up to 5.1 innings, a span in which he's struck out six while allowing just three hits. Outside of a five-run disaster May 12 versus the Angels, Suarez has been nearly untouchable this season. He's maintained a 2.13 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 28:8 K:BB while converting 19 of 21 save chances over 25.1 innings. He's already over halfway to surpassing his total of 36 saves from the 2024 regular season.

Megill allowed a hit in a scoreless inning to earn a save against the Phillies on Sunday. He struck out one batter.

Megill coughed up a leadoff single from Brandon Marsh before retiring three straight batters to close out the 5-2 win. It was Megill's 11th save in 12 attempts, and he's converted 10 straight. He's given up two runs over 14.2 frames (1.23 ERA) since blowing a save chance April 12. Megill owns a 2.33 ERA with a 21:11 K:BB through 19.1 innings.

Martinez struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Nationals.

Martinez had been eased back into closing duties since returning from a shoulder injury that cost him most of May. This was his third appearance since coming off the injured list, and he closed the game out after picking up a hold in his last outing Monday versus the Pirates. Martinez is up to four saves, four holds and a blown save over 15 appearances this season. He's also pitched to a 3.46 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB across 13 innings. Late-inning duties could continue to be split between Martinez and Shelby Miller in the short term, but the closing job should eventually tilt in Martinez's favor as long as he performs well.

Sabrowski (elbow) will move his rehab assignment from the rookie-level Arizona Complex League to Double-A Akron this week, SI.com reports.

Sabrowski has been on the shelf all season with left elbow inflammation but may be a few weeks away from making his 2025 debut with the big club. He began his rehab assignment in the ACL on Friday and has been cleared to advance to a higher-level affiliate despite walking three of the five batters he faced in his lone appearance in rookie ball. Sabrowski is projected to work in a middle-relief role for the Guardians once he's activated from the 60-day injured list.

Lee (2-0) tossed 1.1 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Sunday's 1-0 victory over the Royals. He struck out one.

After Detroit starter Keider Montero went 4.2 innings, Lee was asked to face four batters in the middle innings, and he retired all four on only 12 pitches. The rookie righty has been effective with a 1.15 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 15 strikeouts across 15.2 innings. Lee could see his role in the Tigers' bullpen continue to grow as the season progresses based on his promising early results.

Yates (hamstring) is expected to face hitters in a simulated game early this week, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Yates threw a bullpen session Friday that apparently went well, and he appears ready to move on to the next phase of his throwing program as he works his way back from a right hamstring strain. If all goes well during the sim game, Yates could bypass a minor-league rehab assignment and return from the 15-day injured list next weekend.

Vest threw a perfect ninth inning to earn the save in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Royals.

Vest needed just nine pitches to secure his second save of the weekend. The right-hander has allowed only two earned runs over his past 10 appearances and has now converted five straight save chances. On the season, he's 9-for-11 in save opportunities with a 1.93 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 29:9 K:BB across 28 innings.

Doval earned a four-out save in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Marlins, allowing one hit and two walks without recording a strikeout while holding Miami scoreless.

Doval threw just nine strikes on 21 pitches but managed to convert his second save since being named the Giants' closer. The 27-year-old is in the midst of a strong bounce-back campaign, posting a 1.04 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 22:11 K:BB across 26 innings.

The Yankees optioned De Los Santos to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

The right-hander pitched the first two games of the series versus the Dodgers and will be sent down Sunday in favor of a fresh bullpen arm. De Los Santos has given up just four earned runs across 12 innings with the Yankees this season, but his 1.92 WHIP and 9:6 K:BB provide a less optimistic outlook.

Diaz earned the save against the Rockies on Sunday, allowing one hit while striking out three in a scoreless ninth inning.

Diaz gave up a leadoff single before striking out the next three batters to seal the win. The 31-year-old remains perfect in save chances, converting all 13 opportunities while posting a 2.22 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 37:11 K:BB across 24.1 innings.
