Warren (9-6) earned the win Sunday over the Red Sox, allowing a run on six hits and a walk across seven innings. He struck out seven.

Warren was sharp Sunday, as he logged just his second quality start in his last six outings, while the Yankees provided more than enough run support in a 16-1 victory. The win is just the second for Warren since May 31. Overall, the right-hander sports a 4.23 ERA with a 1.40 WHIP and 133:46 K:BB across 134 innings this season. Warren's currently in line to face the Padres on the road his next time out.

Adams did not factor into the decision Sunday against Atlanta, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out five.

Both runs charged to Adams came in the third inning -- Sean Murphy led off the frame with a solo home run before Ronald Acuna drove in a second with a two-out hit. Overall, Adams has been solid through his first two major-league starts, allowing three runs on eight hits while striking out 10 over nine innings. If Kyle Freeland (neck) is unable to return, Adams would line up for a home matchup with the Cardinals his next time out.

Mahle allowed a run on five hits and no walks across 6.2 innings Sunday against the Rockies. He struck out nine.

Mahle was excellent Sunday, as he matched a season high with nine strikeouts while holding Colorado to one run on a Jake McCarthy solo homer in the sixth inning. Mahle has now held opponents to two runs or fewer in each of his first five outings with Atlanta. He's posted a 1.48 ERA while striking out 32 across 30.1 innings in that span after struggling to a 5.13 ERA with a 1.39 WHIP and 89:37 K:BB across 18 starts (94.2 innings) with San Francisco. Mahle will look to keep rolling his next time out, currently scheduled to come on the road against the Phillies.

Junk did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Nationals, allowing a run on four hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

Junk returned to Miami's rotation Sunday after he was unexpectedly deployed in relief Wednesday. The right-hander was sharp, blanking Washington through four innings before allowing a lone two-out run in the fifth. Junk would then depart the game after throwing just 65 pitches. It appears that Junk could be on a pitch limit down the stretch -- he's now thrown 103 innings this season after delivering a career-high 110 last year. Overall, Junk's ERA sits at 4.11 with a 1.30 WHIP and 70:28 K:BB. He tentatively lines up to face the Cubs at home his next time out.

Alvarez didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Marlins, allowing two hits and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out six.

Alvarez was excellent Sunday, as he held Miami to just a pair of singles, though he ultimately came away with a no-decision as the Nats' bullpen imploded in a six-run ninth inning. Alvarez has now gone 10 straight appearances without a win despite posting a 2.41 ERA across his last seven outings (37.1 innings). Overall, the southpaw is 2-6 with a 3.47 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 86:41 K:BB across 90.2 innings this season. Alvarez is tentatively lined up for a road matchup with the Dodgers his next time out.

The Angels placed Klassen on the 15-day injured list Sunday with left low back inflammation.

The 24-year-old rookie sports a 2-2 record, 3.67 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 24:21 K:BB over 27 innings this season. The Halos recalled Mitch Farris from Triple-A Salt Lake to provide bullpen depth during Klassen's absence.

Seattle placed Hancock (groin) on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a left adductor strain, retroactive to Aug. 29.

Hancock felt something off in his left leg early on in his most recent start Friday against Toronto. The 27-year-old went on to take the loss after allowing five runs over five innings. The right-hander will miss a minimum of 15 days and a couple of starts for Seattle. The Mariners recalled Nick Davila from Triple-A Tacoma to fill in for Hancock on the 26-man roster.

The Yankees promoted Gil from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Gil hasn't made an appearance in the majors since late April. The 28-year-old has mainly been working out of the bullpen at Triple-A and should take on the same role with the Yankees. In four outings with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since returning from a shoulder issue, the right-hander owns a 3.00 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 12:7 K:BB over nine innings. New York optioned Yerry De Los Santos to make room for Gil on the active roster.

Adams is slated to start for the Rockies in Sunday's game in Atlanta.

Adams will receive a second turn through the Colorado rotation after working four innings in a no-decision during his MLB debut Tuesday. Though he's a placeholder in the rotation for the injured Kyle Freeland (neck), Adams could make additional starts over the balance of the season if he acquits himself well.

May (shoulder) is listed as the Brewers' probable starter for Sunday's game against the Rangers at American Family Field.

May will be returning to the hill after he threw just one pitch in his start Wednesday before being drilled in the upper back by a 106-mph comebacker. The right-hander escaped with nothing more than a contusion and was able to play catch Thursday. He'll be making his fifth start with the Brewers on Sunday, going 1-1 with a 5.87 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 15.1 innings in his first four outings since being acquired from the Cardinals at the trade deadline.
