  • Lucas Giolito SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Lucas Giolito: Handed third loss

    Giolito (10-3) allowed four runs (two earned) on seven hits and three walks while striking out two over five innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

    Giolito threw just 53 of 94 pitches for strikes. He struggled in the second inning after an error allowed the Diamondbacks to put together a three-run rally, and that was enough to sink the Red Sox in what ended up being a 5-1 contest. Prior to Saturday, Giolito had allowed just five runs over his previous four starts, covering 25 innings in that span. While he's had a few shaky outings this season, this was just his third loss and his first since July 18 versus the Cubs. The 31-year-old has maintained a 3.38 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 107:46 K:BB through 130.1 innings over 23 starts. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Yankees.

  • Trevor Rogers SP | BAL

    Orioles' Trevor Rogers: Strikes out six in no-decision

    Rogers did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers, allowing two runs on eight hits and one walk with six strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

    Rogers gave up runs in the third and fifth innings but was otherwise sharp, racking up 16 whiffs while landing 71 of 96 pitches for strikes. While the outing snapped the southpaw's run of 10 straight quality starts, he's still allowed three earned runs or fewer in all 15 of his outings this season. He'll take a 1.51 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 87:20 K:BB across 95.2 innings into a road matchup with the Blue Jays next weekend.

  • Bobby Witt SS | KC

    Royals' Bobby Witt: MRI comes back clean

    Witt's MRI on his back returned negative results, and he could return to action when his spasms "loosen up enough to play," Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Witt exited Friday's game against Minnesota due to back spasms and didn't play Saturday. It sounds like he's not dealing with a significant injury, however, so he should be able to avoid a stint on the IL. Witt's return to the lineup will likely depend upon when the spasms in his back subside.

  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | SEA

    Mariners' Eugenio Suarez: Smashes 43rd homer in rout

    Suarez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 10-2 win over Atlanta.

    The homer was the 43rd of the season for Suarez and his seventh with the Mariners. The All-Star third baseman is running out of time if he wants to record the first 50-homer campaign of his career, and the move to Seattle has done no favors for his fantasy value. Suarez has been fine with a .751 OPS over 17 games on the road since joining the M's, but his .609 OPS across 16 outings at pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park is significantly dragging down his appeal for home contests.

  • Shane Baz SP | TB

    Rays' Shane Baz: Strikes out eight in no-decision

    Baz did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk with eight strikeouts over five innings.

    Baz allowed two runs in the fourth inning but was otherwise sharp, throwing 55 of 82 pitches for strikes while racking up 17 whiffs. The 26-year-old has turned in two quality starts over his past three outings, giving up just five earned runs with a 21:5 K:BB over the entirety of that span. He'll carry a 4.94 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 164:57 K:BB across 155 innings into a road matchup with the Cubs next weekend.

  • Dean Kremer SP | BAL

    Orioles' Dean Kremer: MRI returns negative

    Kremer's MRI on his right forearm came back clean, though he'll miss his next start, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Kremer exited Friday's start against the Dodgers after three innings due to right forearm discomfort. A subsequent MRI returned negative, but Kremer is going to have his next turn skipped. However, if the veteran hurler feels okay after he resumes throwing, he could avoid an IL stint.

  • Cal Raleigh C | SEA

    Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Up to 52 homers in 2025

    Raleigh went 1-for-5 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Saturday's 10-2 win over Atlanta.

    Raleigh added to his historic campaign, belting his 52nd homer of the season. The All-Star backstop has opened the month of September with a five-game hitting streak, smashing two long balls during that span. Raleigh has easily been fantasy's top catcher in all settings in 2025, slashing a robust .242/.351/.578 with 19 doubles, 110 RBI, 92 runs scored and 14 stolen bases in addition to the 52 round-trippers across 613 plate appearances.

  • Tanner Bibee SP | CLE

    Guardians' Tanner Bibee: Logs quality start in no-decision

    Bibee did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Rays, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk with three strikeouts over 6.2 innings.

    Bibee opened with four scoreless frames before giving up a run in both the fifth and sixth innings. The 26-year-old notched his first quality start since July 21 and just his second outing in his past eight allowing fewer than four earned runs. He'll take a 4.69 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 139:50 K:BB across 161.1 innings into a home matchup with the White Sox next weekend.

  • Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Gets promising results from X-rays

    X-rays on Basallo's right hand were negative Saturday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Basallo had to be lifted in the fifth inning of Saturday's win over the Dodgers after taking a foul tip off his right hand. The rookie backstop was initially announced to have been removed due to discomfort in his right hand, and subsequent X-rays turned out to be negative. That's certainly good news for Basallo, who can be considered day-to-day until more is known about his injury.

  • Joshua Lowe RF | TB

    Rays' Josh Lowe: Goes deep in loss

    Lowe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians.

    Lowe drew a walk in the second inning before putting the Rays on the board with a solo homer in the fifth. The 27-year-old has picked up four multi-hit efforts in his past eight games, piling up six extra-base hits, eight RBI, eight runs scored and a steal in that span. On the season, he's slashing .243/.309/.404 with 10 homers, 37 RBI, 53 runs scored and 17 steals across 373 plate appearances.
