Lopez did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing five runs on six hits and three walks over 3.2 innings against the Mariners. He struck out three.

Lopez worked two scoreless frames before running into trouble in the third and fourth innings, departing at 102 pitches (63 strikes). While Sunday's showing was subpar, the southpaw has been much better in the second half, posting a 3.34 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 64:22 K:BB across 59.1 innings (11 starts) since the All-Star break. With an overall 6-4 record, 5.02 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 107:56 K:BB in 114.2 innings (25 appearances), Lopez is tentatively scheduled to make his next start Saturday against the Guardians.

Chapman worked around two walks to earn the save Sunday against the Royals, striking out three in a hitless and scoreless ninth inning.

Chapman let the possible tying run get to the plate following a pair of free passes, but he punched out three in a row to hang on for the save. The star southpaw continues to roll, having not blown a save since June 28 against the Yankees. He has a 1.95 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 68:23 K:BB over 50.2 innings, collecting 34 saves in 36 opportunities.

Cameron took a no-decision Sunday against Boston, allowing one run on four hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.

Cameron appeared to be unfazed by Sunday's contest being pushed back almost two hours due to inclement weather, holding the Red Sox in check for six frames. The southpaw has turned his campaign around in a big way since the All-Star break, producing a 2.42 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 58:20 K:BB over his last 70.2 innings. He'll look to further build on a season 3.84 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 149:52 K:BB across 166.1 innings in his next appearance in Pittsburgh.

Tolle took a no-decision Sunday against the Royals, allowing four hits and one walk in six scoreless innings. He struck out seven.

Tolle showed no ill effects of Sunday's first pitch being delayed nearly two hours due to rain, scattering four singles across six shutout frames. The left-hander has pitched at least 5.1 innings while yielding two runs or fewer in six of his last eight starts, and he notably fired an immaculate inning to open Sunday's outing. He's set to bring a 3.02 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 166:38 K:BB over 143 innings into his next appearance against the Rays in pitcher-friendly Tampa Bay.

Jump (shoulder) is likely to be placed on the 15-day injured list, Jason Burke of Roundtable.io reports.

Jump was dealing with left shoulder tightness during his last start Saturday against the Mariners. Whether he goes on the IL will be determined Tuesday, but if that is indeed the route that is chosen, then Jump's 2026 season will likely be over. Across 20 starts, Jump has a 6-11 record with a 5.47 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 108:46 K:BB over 98.2 innings.

Rangers manager Skip Schumaker told reporters that Quantrill was working through back tightness during his start in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Diamondbacks, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Quantrill was able to work through the injury and picked up the win to improve his record to 9-5, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out four across six innings. The back injury can be considered a day-to-day issue, and perhaps Quantrill won't miss any time. His next turn in the rotation is slated for next weekend at home against the Blue Jays.

Kwan went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, two total RBI and an additional run scored in Sunday's 9-2 win over the Twins.

Kwan led off the game with a solo shot off Joe Ryan, his first of three hits on the day and his third home run this season (his first since Aug. 7). Kwan also extended his hit streak to seven games -- he's gone 12-for-30 (.400) with five extra-base hits in that span. Overall, he's slashing .278/.375/.346 through 587 plate appearances this season with 75 runs scored, 30 RBI and 10 stolen bases.

Bednar allowed one hit and no walks in a scoreless ninth inning for the save Sunday against the Mets. He struck out one.

The Mets made the closer work a bit, getting the possible tying run to the plate, but Bednar hung on for the save. The right-hander has successfully converted seven consecutive save opportunities, fanning at least one in five straight outings. Through 64.1 frames, he has a 2.66 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 72:18 K:BB with 34 saves (37 chances).

Wells went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Mets.

Wells' first hit since Sept. 2 was a big one, his first homer since a two-homer outburst Aug. 30 against the Red Sox. Despite a rough season at the dish, the left-handed-hitting backstop remains the Yankees' primary catcher. He's slashing a paltry .179/.279/.307 with 11 homers, seven doubles, 29 RBI and 56 runs scored over 360 plate appearances.

Schlittler (14-6) notched the win Sunday against the Mets, allowing one hit and two walks in six scoreless innings. He struck out eight.

Schlittler was dominant for the Yankees on Sunday, keeping the crosstown rivals out of the hit column until the fifth inning. It's worth noting the star right-hander was hit by a Bo Bichette comebacker to finish the sixth inning and headed directly to the clubhouse, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, but his day was likely finished anyway after he threw 94 pitches. He'll look to extend his streak of starts with one run or zero allowed to eight his next time out in Arizona, where he'll take a 1.95 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 228:44 K:BB over 184.2 innings.
