Jansen picked up the save Tuesday against the Royals, walking one batter and recording two strikeouts during a scoreless ninth inning.

Jansen had gone four straight appearances without recording a strikeout -- his longest streak of the season -- but he nabbed a pair of Ks in Tuesday's save opportunity. The 37-year-old closer is now one save away from matching his 2024 total, and his current 2.89 ERA would be his best since the 2021 season.

Adell went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double during Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Royals.

Adell clubbed a go-ahead two-run home run in the sixth inning, his seventh long ball in the last 15 games and his second in as many days. During that 15-game stretch, Adell is 20-for-56 (.357) with three doubles and 14 RBI.

Peraza went 2-for-4 with an RBI double, a run scored and a stolen base during Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Royals.

Peraza has struggled mightily at the plate this season, slashing .152/.212/.241 in 170 plate appearances with the Yankees before being traded to the Halos. The versatile infielder started his time in Los Angeles going 2-for-18, but he's begun to turn it around. In his last four games, Peraza is 5-for-13 (.385) with a home run, two stolen bases and four total RBI.

Martin (6-9) picked up the win Tuesday against Minnesota, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks with four strikeouts over six innings.

Martin nabbed his second quality start in his last eight appearances and picked up a win in his third straight decision. He didn't allow a home run Tuesday after yielding four long balls across his prior two outings. In his last eight starts, Martin has a 4.57 ERA and 36:22 K:BB across 41.1 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Tigers on Sunday.

Woods Richardson didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the White Sox, allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits and three walks across five innings. He struck out seven.

Woods Richardson struggled in his first start back from the injured list Aug. 27, allowing five runs and three homers while striking out two across 3.2 innings. He fared much better Tuesday, tying his season high in strikeouts. The 24-year-old will carry a 4.53 ERA into his next start, which is scheduled to come against the Angels.

Benintendi went 4-for-5 with a three-run home run, a solo home run, an RBI single and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 12-3 win over the Twins.

Benintendi lost his seven-game hit streak by going 0-for-3 Monday, but he rebounded with a monster performance Tuesday. The outfielder tagged Simeon Woods Richardson for a solo home run in the second inning and Noah Davis for a three-run home run in the eighth inning, marking Benintendi's second multi-homer game of the season. His five RBI were a season high. Benintendi is up to 17 long balls this season, which is tied for his third most in a season during his 10-year MLB career.

Teel went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 12-3 win over the Twins.

Teel and Lenyn Sosa went back-to-back in the seventh inning against Thomas Hatch. Teel is on a heater right now, going 19-for-47 (.404) with three home runs, nine runs scored, 10 RBI and an 8:10 BB:K over his last 13 games. He has five home runs in 215 plate appearances this season.

Baldwin went 3-for-4 with an RBI single and a run scored during Tuesday's 12-3 win over the Twins.

Baldwin reached in four of his five plate appearances, drawing a walk in addition to his trio of singles. The 25-year-old has recorded multiple hits in three of his last four games, and he's 17-for-49 (.347) with two home runs and three doubles across his last 16 outings.

The Angels will recall Dana from Triple-A Salt Lake to start Wednesday's game against the Royals in Anaheim, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

With Victor Mederos (shoulder) and Tyler Anderson (oblique) both on the injured list, the Angels will turn to Dana to fill one of the openings in the rotation. The 21-year-old righty hasn't fared well in the majors throughout his young career, allowing 16 earned runs in 16.1 innings while striking out 14 batters and walking 12 over five appearances (three starts) over the past two seasons. He also carries a 5.93 ERA through 82 frames in Triple-A this season, making him a risky streaming option for Wednesday.

Perez went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 12-5 loss to the Mets.

Perez has started the series against New York by going 4-for-9 with a double, a home run and five RBI across two games. The 25-year-old outfielder is emerging as an effective offensive performer in his second MLB season with a .266/.323/.479 slash line across 79 contests overall, and he should continue to see regular playing time for the Tigers.
