Arozarena has gone 10-for-24 (.417) during his six-game hitting streak, and he's added three steals and seven RBI in that span. The outfielder has remained an effective run producer even in the leadoff spot. For the season, Arozarena is sporting a .246/.345/.451 slash line with 27 home runs, 28 steals, 73 RBI, 89 runs scored, 30 doubles and one triple over 145 contests.

Mariners' Julio Rodriguez: Logs steal in Thursday's win
Rodriguez went 2-for-5 with a double, a walk, two RBI and one stolen base in Thursday's 7-6, extra-innings win over the Angels.
Rodriguez was on the front end of a double steal with one out in the 10th inning, but the Mariners left him stranded on third base. This was his fourth multi-hit effort over his last six games, and he's now hitting .273 (12-for-44) with 11 RBI over 10 contests in September. The outfielder is up to a .267/.317/.474 slash line with 30 home runs, 26 steals, 89 RBI, 95 runs scored, 27 doubles and four triples over 146 contests. A productive end of the year on the basepaths would help him secure his second 30-30 campaign in four MLB seasons, but he would need to pick up the pace, as he has just six steals over his last 37 contests.

J.P. Crawford SS | SEA
Mariners' J.P. Crawford: Drives in three
Crawford went 2-for-5 with a double, three RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Angels.
This was Crawford's third multi-hit effort in his last five games. The shortstop opened the scoring with a two-run double in the second inning and added an RBI single in the 11th to tie it at 5-5, keeping the game alive before the Mariners walked it off in the 12th. Prior to Thursday, Crawford had logged just one RBI and no extra-base hits over his previous 14 games and hadn't recorded a steal since Aug. 9 versus the Rays. On the season, he has a .263/.353/.355 slash line with nine home runs, eight steals, 50 RBI and 63 runs scored over 143 contests.

Mariners' Josh Naylor: Two steals in Thursday's win
Naylor went 0-for-5 with two stolen bases and one run scored in Thursday's 7-6, extra-innings win over the Angels.
Naylor swiped a bag after reaching on catcher's interference in the 10th inning, and his second steal came as the designated runner in the 12th before coming around to score the tying run in that frame. The first baseman continues to pick his moments on the basepaths with five steals over his last 11 contests. Overall, he's up to 27 thefts on 29 attempts while adding 19 home runs, 80 RBI, 74 runs scored and a .283/.344/.451 slash line over 134 games between Seattle and Arizona this season.

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.

John Schreiber RP | KC
Royals' John Schreiber: Saddled with loss, blown save
Schreiber (3-3) was charged with the loss and a blown save Thursday against the Guardians, allowing two runs on two hits while striking out one in 1.1 innings.
It's the third time already this month that Schreiber has permitted two runs in an outing, giving him a ghastly 12.46 ERA through 4.1 innings in September. With closer Carlos Estevez leading MLB in saves, Schreiber has fallen quite far out of contention for save chances in most scenarios at this stage of the campaign. Across 58.1 innings, Schreiber has a 3.70 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 60:18 K:BB.

Cade Smith RP | CLE
Guardians' Cade Smith: Nails down 13th save
Smith struck out two in a clean ninth inning for the save Thursday against the Royals.
Although Smith opened the month by imploding for three earned runs in his first September outing, he's turned in four saves across five consecutive scoreless appearances since then. With Emmanuel Clase's future with the Guardians uncertain due to a sports-betting investigation, Smith is cementing himself as Cleveland's closer to close out the regular season. He has a 3.15 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 92:13 K:BB while converting 13 of his 18 save chances over 65.2 frames in 2025.

Tigers' Dillon Dingler: Collects two RBI vs. Bronx Bombers
Dingler went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and an RBI single during the Tigers' 9-3 loss to the Yankees on Thursday.
Dingler put the Tigers on the board in the second inning with an RBI single before logging his second RBI of the night on a solo homer in the seventh. Dingler has been hot at the plate as of late, having gone 14-for-37 (.378) with two home runs and four RBI over his last 10 games.

Tyler Holton RP | DET
Tigers' Tyler Holton: Takes loss as Thursday's opener
Holton (5-5) took the loss against the Yankees on Thursday, allowing two runs on two hits while striking out two across one frame.
Holton recorded both of his strikeouts in the first inning but also gave up a solo home run to Aaron Judge before being tagged for a second run in the second frame when. It was Holton's sixth time serving as an opener this year, and he now sits at a 4.00 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 69.2 innings overall.

Ryan Yarbrough RP | NYY
Yankees' Ryan Yarbrough: Earns first save of 2025
Yarbrough earned the save in Thursday's 9-3 win over the Tigers, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out two across three innings.
Cam Schlittler limited the Tigers to one run over the first six innings, and Yarbrough took care of the rest across the final three frames of Thursday's win. With Yarbrough being used in long relief to close out Thursday's game, the Yankees will have a fresh set of bullpen arms out for Friday's series opener against the Red Sox at Fenway Park. Yarbrough has a 3.82 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 63.2 innings this season.
