  • Jose Soriano RP | LAA

    Angels' Jose Soriano: Lasts four innings

    Soriano allowed four runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks while striking out four over four innings in a no-decision Thursday versus the Mariners.

    Soriano gave up all four runs in the second inning, with an error allowing Seattle to extend its early rally. This was a better performance than his last start, but Soriano has allowed 12 runs (11 earned) over 6.1 innings in September and has given up four or more runs in four of his last seven starts. He's at a 4.13 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 152:76 K:BB through 167.2 innings over 30 starts this season. The 26-year-old's next outing is projected to be at Milwaukee, but it's worth noting he was pushed back a day for this turn through the rotation. With a number of the Angels' starters laboring, the team may consider going to a six-man unit to ease everyone's burden, though the pitching plans for the remainder of the season are not yet known.

  • Bryce Miller SP | SEA

    Mariners' Bryce Miller: Strikes out 11 in no-decision

    Miller allowed four runs on six hits and struck out 11 without walking a batter in a no-decision Thursday versus the Angels.

    The 11 strikeouts established a single-game career high for the right-hander. He also gave up two home runs in the contest, the latter of which tied the game at 4-4 and ultimately forced extra innings. Miller has allowed 16 runs over 27 innings with a 25:6 K:BB across five starts since returning from elbow inflammation. For the season, he's at a 5.59 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 64:29 K:BB through 75.2 innings over 15 starts. Miller is projected to make his next start at Kansas City.

  • McCade Brown P | COL

    Rockies' McCade Brown: Shows progress but gets no support

    Brown (0-4) allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.1 innings to take the loss Thursday versus the Padres.

    This was Brown's longest start and also featured the fewest runs allowed of his four major-league outings so far. However, the Rockies mustered just four hits in the whole game, giving the rookie right-hander next to nothing for offensive support. Brown is now at a 9.88 ERA, 2.12 WHIP and 10:9 K:BB across 13.2 innings in the majors. He'll remain tough to trust in fantasy for the rest of the campaign. Brown's next start is tentatively projected to be at home versus the Marlins.

  • Padres' Randy Vasquez: Steady in fifth win

    Vasquez (5-6) allowed four hits and struck out nine without walking a batter over six shutout innings to earn the win over the Rockies on Thursday.

    Vasquez has won both of his starts since rejoining the Padres' rotation, though both outings have been against the lowly Rockies. The nine strikeouts were easily a season high for the right-hander, who hadn't logged more than five in any previous appearance this year. Vasquez now has a 3.72 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 71:49 K:BB through 123.1 innings over 25 appearances (24 starts). He's tentatively projected to make his next start on the road versus the Mets, assuming Vasquez has done enough to stay in the rotation while Nestor Cortes (biceps) remains on the injured list.

  • Ryan Weathers SP | MIA

    Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Blanks Nats in return

    Weathers (2-1) earned the win against the Nationals on Thursday, allowing five hits while striking out four across five scoreless innings. He did not issue a walk.

    Weathers was cleared to make his first start since early June after missing time due to a left lat strain. He looked good in his return, limiting the Nationals to five baserunners while generating 12 whiffs on just 68 pitches (46 strikes). Now that he has his first major-league start in three months under his belt, Weathers should have a longer leash in his next outing, which is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Rockies.

  • MacKenzie Gore SP | WAS

    Nationals' MacKenzie Gore: Takes loss in return

    Gore (5-14) took the loss against the Marlins on Thursday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four across five innings.

    Gore was cleared to return from the 15-day injured list Thursday after recovering from left shoulder inflammation. He got off to a rocky start by yielding two runs in the first inning, but the 26-year-old southpaw kept the Marlins off the board over the next four frames and finished with 11 whiffs on 78 pitches (50 strikes). Gore has given up three earned runs or less in each of his last five starts, and while his 177 strikeouts (across 152.1 innings) is 10th best in the National League, his 14 losses is tied with Zac Gallen and Mitch Keller for fourth worst in the NL. Gore is slated to face Atlanta at home next week.

  • Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Collects third win of 2025

    Schlittler (3-3) earned the win against the Tigers on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out seven across six innings.

    Schlittler gave up an RBI single in the second inning, but the 24-year-old right-hander managed to keep the Tigers off the board the rest of the way despite loading the bases in the fifth. He generated 13 whiffs on 95 pitches (62 strikes) and has recorded at least seven strikeouts and a quality start in four of his last five outings. Schlittler sits at a 3.05 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 63:24 K:BB across 56 innings since making his major-league debut July 9. He's slated to start against the Twins on the road next week.

  • Rockies' Chase Dollander: IL stint coming

    Dollander will be placed on the 15-day injured list Friday due to a knee injury, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

    Dollander reported knee pain after his start Monday and underwent imaging Tuesday. The exact results of those tests are unclear, but it will apparently be enough to send him to the injured list. Dollander's season is likely over, though he will technically be eligible to return in the final few days of the season. If he remains on the shelf, the 23-year-old will finish his rookie campaign with a 6.52 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 82:49 K:BB across 98 innings.

  • Jesus Luzardo SP | PHI

    Phillies' Jesus Luzardo: Locks in after rough start

    Luzardo (14-6) earned the win Thursday against the Mets, allowing four runs on five hits and no walks in eight innings. He struck out 10.

    It looked as though Luzardo was on his way to a quick hook as New York tagged him for four runs on five hits in the opening inning, but the hurler experienced a remarkable turnaround. Luzardo proceeded to pitch seven perfect innings from that point on, fanning double-digit batters for the sixth time this season in his longest appearance of the campaign. A tough test against the Dodgers awaits the southpaw in his next scheduled start. Through 169.2 innings, Luzardo has a 4.03 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 200:56 K:BB.

  • David Peterson SP | NYM

    Mets' David Peterson: Mixed results in no-decision

    Peterson didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Phillies, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk in five innings. He struck out eight.

    While Peterson remains without a quality start since Aug. 19 in Washington, he's now fanned at least eight in three of his last five outings. The All-Star southpaw pounded the zone for 61 strikes among his 86 pitches Thursday while generating 19 whiffs, though he did serve up his first homer since Aug. 6 against Cleveland. Peterson will bring a respectable 3.77 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 148:60 K:BB across 162.1 innings into his next appearance, which is tentatively scheduled to come against the Padres.
