Pfaadt didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 5-1, extra-innings loss to the Giants, allowing just one hit and one walk over nine scoreless innings. He struck out seven.

Had he gotten any run support at all, Pfaadt would have delivered his first career shutout on 97 pitches (65 strikes) in the best performance of his career. Instead, the right-hander had to settle for a no-decision as neither offense woke up until the 11th inning. Pfaadt has produced two quality starts in three September outings, but he got tagged for five runs ove 4.2 frames in the other start, and since the beginning of August he carries a 4.83 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 40:10 K:BB over 50.1 innings even with Wednesday's stellar effort. He'll try to continue wrapping up his regular season on a high note in his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come at home early next week against the Dodgers.

Verlander came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 5-1 extra-innings win over Arizona, allowing three hits and two walks over seven scoreless innings. He struck out three.

The 42-year-old right-hander fired 67 of 107 pitches for strikes as he gave up two runs or fewer for a fifth straight start, but he got stuck with a no-decision since neither team's offense woke up until the 11th inning. Verlander has re-discovered something close to his old Cy Young form at the right time for the Giants as they try to claw their way into a wild-card spot, and over that five-start hot streak he sports a 0.87 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 28:12 K:BB in 31 innings. Verlander will try to stay locked in for his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Cardinals.

The Brewers placed Quintana on the 15-day injured list Wednesday, retroactive to Sept. 15, due to a left calf strain, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Quintana was able to play catch with no apparent issues Tuesday, which seemed set him up to make his next turn through the rotation this weekend in St. Louis. The veteran left-hander was scheduled to do some running Wednesday which presumably didn't go well, and he will end up missing the rest of the regular season. Quintana will be eligible to be reinstated Sept. 30, so he could be back on the active roster for the start of the playoffs with a minimum-length stay on the shelf.

Quintana (calf) played catch without issue Tuesday and is slated to do some running Wednesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

He'll likely need to throw a bullpen session within the next couple days, too, but if all goes well Quintana will start Sunday's game in St. Louis. The veteran left-hander had to depart his last outing with a mild left calf strain, but he has a good chance to avoid missing any starts.

Pallante (6-15) took the loss Wednesday against Cincinnati, allowing four runs on six hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out three.

It's the eighth loss for Pallante in his last nine starts -- he's struggled to a 7.12 ERA in that span. Overall, the right-hander sports a 5.29 ERA with a 1.44 WHIP and 107 strikeouts through 30 starts (160 innings) this season. Pallante will look for better results his next time out, tentatively scheduled for next week in San Francisco, in what could be his final start of 2025.

Singer (14-10) earned the win Wednesday over the Cardinals, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out six.

Singer gave up a solo shot to Alec Burleson in the first inning but limited the damage from there, allowing just an unearned run in the sixth en route to a 6-2 Reds' victory. The 29-year-old Singer has been impressive down the stretch, posting a 2.28 ERA in nine starts since the beginning of August. Overall, his ERA sits at 3.86 with a 1.22 WHIP and 155:59 K:BB across 30 starts (161 innings) this year. Singer is tentatively lined up to face the Pirates at home his next time out.

Oviedo didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Cubs, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out three.

The Cubs got to Oviedo early Wednesday, scoring four runs on four hits in the first inning, including a pair of homers. However, the right-hander managed to settle in and blank Chicago over his final four frames, allowing just one additional hit. The four runs mark the most given up by Oviedo through seven starts this season. His ERA sits at 3.52 with a 1.24 WHIP and 32:17 K:BB across 30.2 innings.

Boyd allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks across three innings in a no-decision Wednesday against the Pirates. He struck out five.

Boyd got off to a rocky start Wednesday, allowing a three-run homer to Joey Bart in the opening inning before walking in a fourth run in the second. It's the shortest outing of the year for Boyd, who's struggled a bit of late with a 6.54 ERA in his last six starts (31.2 innings). Overall, the left-hander is 13-8 with a 3.20 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 151:41 K:BB through 30 starts (174.1 innings) this season. Boyd will look to get back on track his next time out, tentatively scheduled for next week at home against the Mets. If Chicago's current rotation setup holds, it'll likely be his last start of the regular season.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Wednesday that Crismatt will be moved to the bullpen while Arizona proceeds with a four-man rotation for the rest of the season, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.

Despite moving several key pieces at the trade deadline, the 77-75 Diamondbacks surprisingly find themselves in the hunt for a playoff spot with a week and a half remaining in the season. As a result, Lovullo will take a postseason-like approach with the rotation down the stretch as the Diamondbacks look to chase down the 78-73 Mets for the final wild-card spot. Since being called up from Triple-A Reno on Aug. 17, Crismatt has given the Diamondbacks quality production out of the fifth spot in the rotation, turning in a 2.70 ERA over his six outings. Crismatt's underlying numbers (10.9 K-BB%, 4.45 SIERA) are far less impressive, so he likely would have been bound to regress had he continued to make regular starts for Arizona.

Musgrove (elbow) threw an "up-down" bullpen session at Citi Field on Tuesday, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Musgrove essentially completed a two-inning simulated game, albeit without facing hitters. He threw approximately 15 pitches, then rested for a bit before tossing another 15 pitches. The right-hander -- who underwent Tommy John surgery Oct. 11, 2024 -- remains hopeful that he'll be able to contribute out of the San Diego bullpen in the playoffs, though he's not on pace to be ready to go for the wild-card round. With that in mind, the Padres may need to make a deep postseason run for Musgrove to achieve his goal, and even in that scenario, he may not be trusted with pitching high-leverage innings coming off a major injury. The Padres' main focus remains in ensuring that Musgrove enters spring training at full health and is able to break camp as a member of the Opening Day rotation.
