Gordon (6-7) took the loss Thursday against the Marlins, surrendering four runs (three earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out four over six innings.

The right-hander was burned in the third inning, giving up back-to-back home runs -- a two-run shot to Liam Hicks followed by a solo blast from Otto Lopez. Gordon has struggled with the long ball recently, serving up six homers in his last three starts. Despite the home runs, the 27-year-old has otherwise been steady, delivering five quality starts in his last six outings. Over that stretch, Gordon has lowered his ERA by nearly two full runs, and he'll look to keep trending in the right direction when he faces the Mariners in his final start of the season next week. He owns a 6.00 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 59:17 K:BB across 72 innings for the Rockies in 2025.

Webb (14-11) allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and a walk while striking out five over seven innings, taking the loss Thursday versus the Dodgers.

Webb was a little more in control than Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto, but the Giants weren't able to give their ace enough run support to overcome his missteps in the sixth inning. This was still better than the six-run outing Webb had at home versus the Dodgers last Saturday. The 28-year-old is now at a 3.27 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 211:44 K:BB through 195.2 innings over 32 starts. He's projected for one more start this season in a home game versus the Cardinals, which will give him a chance to reach the 200-inning mark for the third straight season.

Alcantara (10-12) earned the win Thursday against the Rockies, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out eight over 6.2 innings.

Alcantara gave up two runs in the second inning, including a solo homer to Blaine Crim, before surrendering another long ball to Yanquiel Fernandez in the seventh, but the right-hander ultimately limited Colorado enough to earn the win. Alcantara was one out shy of logging his fifth seven-inning outing in his last six starts, a stretch in which he's delivered a 2.88 ERA and an excellent 42:7 K:BB across 40.2 innings while picking up four victories. The 30-year-old is scheduled to take the mound next week against the Phillies for his final start of 2025.

Yamamoto allowed one hit and six walks while striking out seven over 5.1 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Thursday.

Yamamoto put too much traffic on the basepaths with a season-high six walks, but he kept it from hurting by posting his third straight start allowing just one hit. This was also a fourth consecutive no-decision for the right-hander, which is massively unfortunate considering he's allowed just three runs over 28 innings in that span. He's now at a 2.58 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 194:57 K:BB through 167.2 innings across 29 starts this season. Yamamoto is projected for one more regular-season start, which would give him a chance to go for a 200-strikeout season against the Diamondbacks next week.

Sasaki (shoulder/calf) allowed one walk and struck out two across a scoreless inning in a rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Sasaki began his rehab assignment as a starter but shifted to a relief role for Thursday's appearance, which also marked his return from a calf injury. He touched 100.1 mph during the appearance and averaged 98.9 mph with his fastball. Sasaki is likely to be back with the Dodgers after another appearance or two and Triple-A, but he isn't guaranteed a place on the playoff roster.

Priester allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out 10 over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Thursday.

Priester was good, but he left the game with the Brewers trailing 2-1, denying him a chance at the win while also falling an out short of a quality start. His lone mistake Thursday was a two-run home run to Luis Rengifo in the fifth inning. This was Priester's third 10-plus strikeout game, and he's allowed just six runs over 18 innings across his three starts in September to carry over his positive momentum from the end of August. The 25-year-old right-hander is now at a 3.25 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 128:49 K:BB through 152.1 innings over 28 appearances (23 starts) this season. His last outing of the regular season is projected to be a road start in San Diego next week.

Rea (10-7) allowed one run on four hits and struck out 11 without walking a batter over seven innings, taking the loss Thursday versus the Reds.

Rea was excellent, limiting the damage to a Will Benson RBI double in the fourth inning, but that was the lone run of the game. The Cubs offered Rea no support, as they got one-hit by Reds starter Hunter Greene a day after clinching a playoff spot. Rea picked up his first quality start since Aug. 9 versus the Cardinals, and this was the first time he's logged double-digit strikeouts all season. He's now at a 4.10 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 120:43 K:BB over 153.2 innings through 31 appearances (26 starts) this season. He'll likely get the chance to tie his career high in starts next week with his last projected outing of the regular season, set to be at home versus the Mets.

Greene (7-4) threw a shutout Thursday versus the Cubs, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out nine over nine innings.

This was the second shutout of Greene's career, with the other coming in his rookie year in 2022. He was perfect through four innings before Moises Ballesteros reached on an error to lead off the fifth. Greene then walked Michael Busch in the sixth and allowed a double to Seiya Suzuki in the seventh. Aside from a poor showing versus the Athletics last Saturday, Greene has been dominant in September, allowing a total of seven runs over 24.2 innings across his four starts this month to keep the Reds feasibly still in the hunt for a playoff spot. Greene is now at a 2.74 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 125:24 K:BB through 101.2 innings over 18 starts this season. He is projected to make his last start of the regular season at home versus the Pirates next week.

Sasaki (shoulder/calf) is scheduled to pitch in relief for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Sasaki suffered a calf injury in his rehab appearance Sept. 9 and is also working his way back from a shoulder injury that has sidelined him for most of the season. His shift to a relief role is notable, as he could also be auditioning for a postseason roster spot as a bullpen arm.

Vasquez (5-7) took the loss Thursday against the Mets, allowing four runs on four hits and a walk across 2.1 innings. He struck out three.

After turning in back-to-back quality starts in his previous two outings, Vasquez struggled Thursday, giving up a solo homer to Pete Alonso in the first inning before allowing another three runs before departing in the third. Through 125.2 innings this year, Vasquez sports a 3.94 ERA with a 1.36 WHIP and 74:50 K:BB. He'll look to get back on track in his next start, tentatively scheduled for next week at home against the Brewers.
