  • Gage Jump SP | ATH

    Athletics' Gage Jump: Likely to go on IL

    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.

  • Cal Quantrill RP | TEX

    Rangers' Cal Quantrill: Tweaks back during Sunday's start

    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.

  • Steven Kwan LF | CLE

    Guardians' Steven Kwan: Three hits, homer in win

    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.

  • David Bednar RP | NYY

    Yankees' David Bednar: Holds on for save No. 34

    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).

  • Austin Wells C | NYY

    Yankees' Austin Wells: Breaks out with solo shot

    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.

  • Cam Schlittler SP | NYY

    Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Twirls gem in 14th win

    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.

  • Jackson Jobe SP | DET

    Tigers' Jackson Jobe: Fans career-high eight in win

    Jobe (2-2) earned the win Sunday against Colorado, allowing one run on three hits and one walk in 6.1 innings. He struck out eight.

    Adael Amador took Jobe yard in the opening inning, but that was all the Rockies would muster in the scoring department for the rest of the afternoon. It was the longest outing of the right-hander's career, and the eight strikeouts marked a career best as well. He'll carry a decent 3.89 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 34:13 K:BB over 34.2 innings into his next scheduled outing in Chicago against the division-rival White Sox.

  • Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Goes deep in win Sunday

    Torkelson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 8-1 win over the Rockies.

    Making his second straight start, Torkelson delivered his 23rd home run of the season in the fifth inning. The slugging first baseman has seen his playing time trend downward lately, as he appeared off the bench in each of Detroit's previous three games before starting Saturday and Sunday. Torkelson still offers significant power potential when he's in the lineup, but his current role makes him hard to trust for fantasy managers.

  • Riley Greene LF | DET

    Tigers' Riley Greene: Reaches 20-homer plateau

    Greene went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three total RBI in Sunday's 8-1 win over the Rockies.

    Greene wasted no time recording his 20th home run of the season, as he went deep in the first inning with a runner on base. The star outfielder has been locked in since returning from the injured list at the beginning of the month with a .378 batting average, 1.217 OPS, four home runs and 17 RBI across 11 games. About the only thing that seems likely to slow Greene down at this point is more frequent rest days due to Detroit's rapidly fading playoff chances.

  • Trevor Rogers SP | BAL

    Orioles' Trevor Rogers: Gives up three-straight homers in loss

    Rogers (10-10) took the loss against the Blue Jays on Sunday, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out five across six innings.

    Rogers limited the Blue Jays to one run through four innings, but the 28-year-old southpaw's outing took a turn for the worse in the fifth, when he gave up consecutive homers to George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero and Kazuma Okamoto. It was the first time Rogers gave up three home runs in a start since Sept. 26, 2025, against the Yankees. He'll take a 4.22 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 157.2 innings into his next start, tentatively slated for next weekend at home against the Brewers.
