Caminero went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over Colorado.

Caminero extended Tampa's lead to 3-0 in the third inning with a 449-foot blast off Tomoyuki Sugano, his 33rd homer this season, good for second most in the majors. Over his last six games, Caminero's gone 8-for-23 (.348) with four long balls, boosting his slash line to .284/.373/.559 with 71 RBI, 70 runs scored and two steals across 498 plate appearances this year.

Dingler went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Mariners.

That's three homers and seven RBI over Dingler's last five games. The catcher has four multi-hit efforts in that span and accounted for half of the Tigers' knocks in Wednesday's loss. His breakout season continues, as he's now up to 25 homers, 75 RBI, 61 runs scored, 22 doubles and two triples while batting .275 with an .868 OPS through 105 contests.

Anderson allowed three hits and a walk while failing to record a strikeout over 3.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Wednesday.

Anderson last pitched Sunday, so he wasn't on full rest. The right-hander is being stretched out as a starter to fill the holes created when the Tigers shipped out Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize ahead of Monday's trade deadline, although Jackson Jobe (elbow), Jack Flaherty (forearm) and Justin Verlander (hamstring) are expected back in the coming weeks as well. Anderson has primarily worked as a reliever this season, pitching to a 4.01 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 78:25 K:BB through 67.1 innings over 41 games (three starts). While this was a fairly promising performance, Anderson won't be much of a factor in fantasy until he gets into the 70-80 pitch range and shows an ability to work at least five innings consistently to give himself a chance of collecting wins. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Guardians, but it'll take at least a couple more turns through the rotation before he's stretched out enough to contend for wins.

Emerson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

Emerson had gone 29 games without a long ball prior to Wednesday, hitting .181 with just one double and five RBI in that span. He also struck out at a 34.3 percent rate during the power drought. The infielder is batting .199 with a .617 OPS, eight homers, 23 RBI, 24 runs scored, six doubles, one triple and three stolen bases over his first 62 major-league games. Emerson also has a 32.6 percent strikeout rate on the year, so his average is likely to remain suppressed until he can make more consistent contact.

Rodriguez went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

Rodriguez has gone 7-for-22 (.318) over six games since he was shifted down from third to fourth in the Mariners' lineup. He's also drawn five walks in that span. The outfielder is batting .258 with a .745 OPS, 17 homers, 50 RBI, 53 runs scored, 16 doubles and 14 stolen bases over 104 contests this year.

Munoz struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tigers.

Munoz is the 13th pitcher to reach the 20-save mark this season after slamming the door on the Tigers' comeback effort. He had allowed two runs over his previous 3.1 innings, a span that included his first blown save since early June. Munoz is at a 3.89 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 65:17 K:BB across 41.2 innings this year, and his six blown saves are one fewer than he had during the entirety of the 2025 regular season. Despite the struggles at times this year, he remains safely in the closer role for Seattle.

Woo (8-8) allowed three hits, one walk and three hit batsmen while striking out five over seven scoreless innings to earn the win over the Tigers on Wednesday.

While Woo didn't have his sharpest control, the Tigers weren't able to get a run off of him. He's now allowed just five runs (four earned) across his last 26.1 innings at home, but his success in those games has been offset by a 6.16 ERA on the road since the start of June. Overall, he has a 4.31 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 127:27 K:BB through 127.1 innings across 22 starts this season. Woo's next start is projected to be on the road versus the Yankees.

Butler went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Reds.

With a righty on the mound, Butler batted leadoff and started the fireworks early with a towering shot to right field in the first at-bat of the game. Butler is hitting way better since the All-Star break after scuffling for most of the first half (.835 OPS versus .592, respectively) and has an RBI in five of his last eight games. Even with that improved run production, he hasn't driven in multiple runs in a game since June 10, a span of 45 games.

Lopez allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out nine over five innings during a 3-2 loss to the Reds on Wednesday.

After serving as an option in the bullpen in late May and early July -- which bookended a month-long stint at Triple-A -- Lopez has been back in the rotation for his last four appearances. Since rejoining the rotation, the lefty has a 1-1 record with a 2.29 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 27:9 K:BB across 19.2 innings. Those numbers are a major improvement on the 6.75 ERA he posted in 12 outings prior to his demotion to Triple-A.

Mayo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 5-2 win against the Angels on Wednesday.

Mayo went back-to-back with Tyler O'Neill in the fourth inning with a long ball to almost the exact same spot in left-center field. The 24-year-old Mayo is continuing his hot hitting from July with extra-base hits in his last two starts. In 14 games since the All-Star break, he has a .935 OPS with six extra-base hits (three homers), a steal, seven RBI and nine runs.
