Stowers went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Sunday's win over the Yankees.

Stowers knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly in the second inning before ripping a three-run shot in the fourth. He went deep twice and drove in three runs during Miami's three-game sweep of the Yankees. He's gone deep nine times over his last 16 appearances, and he's up to 25 home runs on the year. Stowers owns an impressive .296/.373/.575 slash line with 71 RBI as one of the biggest fantasy breakout stars of 2025.

Rodriguez (4-7) picked up the win Sunday against the Athletics, allowing two runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five over five innings.

Rodriguez turned in a steady performance Sunday after a rocky month of July, when he was tagged for four or more runs in three of his four starts and posted a bloated 7.40 ERA and 1.98 WHIP. Both of Rodriguez's runs allowed came on a Nick Kurtz two-RBI single in the fifth inning, but he otherwise limited damage and kept Arizona in control. The veteran southpaw may be turning a corner, and he'll look to build on this performance in his next outing, slated for next weekend against the Rockies.

Schwarber went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Tigers.

Schwarber was the only Phillie with multiple hits in this contest, which included an eighth-inning solo shot off Tyler Holton. That long ball moved Schwarber into a tie with Shohei Ohtani for the National League lead with 38 homers on the year. Schwarber has added a .254/.379/.578 slash line, 88 RBI, 77 runs scored and 10 stolen bases over 111 contests. He hit .264 with a 1.093 OPS in a 12-homer barrage in July, so there's been no slowing down for Philadelphia's main designated hitter.

Duran struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Tigers.

Duran has converted a save in each of his first two appearances for the Phillies after being traded from the Twins at the deadline. The right-hander had a bit of a bumpy July to close out his Minnesota tenure, allowing four runs on 14 hits and four walks over 12 innings last month. Duran's save quantity should take a step up now that he's pitching for a contender, and he's unlikely to be challenged for closing duties. He's maintained a 1.93 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 54:18 K:BB through 51.1 innings while converting 18 of 20 save chances this season.

Sanchez (10-3) allowed five hits and a walk while striking out six over eight shutout innings to earn the win over the Tigers on Sunday.

Sanchez was efficient as well as excellent, throwing 58 of 84 pitches for strikes in this start. This is the third time in his last eight outings that he's completed eight frames, and he's gone at least seven innings in eight of 11 starts since the beginning of June. The southpaw continues to have a breakout campaign -- he's now at a 2.40 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 145:34 K:BB through 138.2 innings over 22 starts. Sanchez's next start is projected to be on the road versus the Rangers.

Horwitz went 3-for-5 with two home runs, a double, six RBI and an additional run scored in Sunday's 9-5 win over the Rockies.

The leadoff man erupted at the plate Sunday, launching a two-run homer in the second inning and following it up with a three-run shot in the sixth. This was the first-baseman's his third career multi-homer game, and he registered a new career best with six RBI. Horwitz has been red-hot since the All-Star break, batting .346 (18-for-52) with 15 RBI and nine runs scored over 15 games. The 27-year-old is seeing the ball well and continues to deliver impact production atop the Pirates lineup.

Blalock (1-3) took the loss Sunday against the Pirates, allowing seven runs on six hits and four walks while striking out two over 5.2 innings.

Blalock struggled from the start, giving up a two-run homer to Tommy Pham in the first inning followed by another to Spencer Horwitz in the second. The 24-year-old was coming off his only quality start of the season but couldn't carry that momentum forward, as he allowed multiple home runs for the third time in his nine appearances in 2025. The right-hander now sports a 7.68 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 18:11 K:BB through 38.2 innings.

Keller (5-10) earned the win Sunday against the Rockies, allowing five runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings.

Keller cruised through the first five frames Sunday, but things unraveled quickly in the sixth when he surrendered back-to-back-to-back home runs to Mickey Moniak, Hunter Goodman and Jordan Beck before exiting. Despite the rough ending, the Pirates' offense provided enough run support to secure the win for Keller. The 29-year-old hasn't looked sharp since the All-Star break, posting a 7.62 ERA with a 12:7 K:BB over 13 innings in three starts. The right-hander will aim for a cleaner outing in his next scheduled start against the Reds.

Lee went 4-for-4 with a walk, a double and two runs scored in Sunday's 12-4 rout of the Mets.

The Giants outfielder wrapped a great weekend in Queens by notching his third consecutive contest with a double. Lee also managed to log his first big-league four-hit performance in his 143rd career contest with San Francisco. The 26-year-old is slashing .258/.327/.405 with 25 doubles, eight triples, six homers, 54 runs scored and 44 RBI across 446 total plate appearances.

Schmitt went 2-for-5 with a homer, three RBI and an additional run scored in Sunday's 12-4 win against the Mets.

Schmitt plated his team's last three runs with a 369-foot long ball off reliever Ryne Stanek in the ninth inning. The San Francisco infielder has been heating up over his last 10 games, tallying a hit in nine of the contests and batting .275 (11-for-40) with two homers, three doubles, five RBI and four runs scored. Across 185 total plate appearances, Schmitt is now slashing .253/.326/.410 with 21 RBI and 18 runs scored.
