Sewald earned the save by striking out the side in order during Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Tigers.

The 35-year-old was called upon for the ninth inning after Arizona turned a 5-1, eighth-inning deficit into a two-run lead, and he dispatched the middle of Detroit's lineup on 13 pitches. Sewald now has two saves through three scoreless appearances this year, already matching his saves total from a bumpy 2025 regular season with Cleveland and Detroit. Things can change fast this early in the season, but Sewald has quickly established himself as Arizona's top option for saves.

Pfaadt did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing five runs on six hits and one walk over six innings during a 7-5 victory over the Tigers. He struck out three.

Pfaadt retired the side in order in five of six frames Tuesday, but the third inning was a mess as Detroit rallied for five runs on six hits. Despite that seemingly strong performance for most of the night, the right-hander generated just six swinging strikes on 85 pitches, which isn't exactly an encouraging season debut after his strikeout rate already dropped more than five percentage points to 19.2 percent from 2024 to 2025. A matchup with Atlanta this weekend presents a difficult matchup for Pfaadt his next time out.

Fernandez went 3-for-4 with two home runs, four RBI and a strikeout in Tuesday's 7-5 win against the Tigers.

Starting at third base in his major-league debut, the 22-year-old put the Diamondbacks on the board during the fourth inning with a solo shot and followed up with a three-run blast in the eighth to erase a 5-4 deficit. Fernandez was expected to primarily serve as a reserve infielder for Arizona after getting promoted Monday, but the impactful debut could net him more opportunities in the short term with Pavin Smith (elbow) on the injured list.

Bauers went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a steal and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 6-2 win versus the Rays.

The 30-year-old got the start Tuesday even though Tampa Bay sent out a southpaw in Shane McClanahan, against whom the lefty-hitting Bauers went 0-for-2. The first baseman got back on track once the Rays turned to the bullpen, however, as he reached on an infield single, stole second and scored in the sixth inning before launching a solo homer in the eighth. With Andrew Vaughn (wrist) expected to be sidelined until mid-May after undergoing hamate bone surgery, Bauers should be a lineup regular for the time being, especially if he can build upon his hot start to 2026.

Woodruff (1-0) earned the win Tuesday versus the Rays, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks across five innings. He struck out six.

Woodruff was brought along slowly during spring training after finishing last season on the injured list due to a lat strain, and he was pulled after five frames and just 67 pitches (45 strikes) in his season debut Tuesday. The 33-year-old righty was able to work efficiently and pick up the win, with the only damage against him coming via a pair of solo home runs. Woodruff averaged 93.1 mph with his fastball, which is a couple ticks lower than he averaged prior to his 2023 shoulder surgery but is in line with what he posted in 12 starts during the 2025 regular season. He's likely to make his next start on the road in Boston early next week.

Banks picked up a hold Tuesday versus the Nationals, allowing one run on three hits and no walks in 1.2 innings.

The Phillies were working with a three-run lead when Banks entered, so Banks was able to hang on for his first hold of the season. The southpaw had a relatively long leash against a lefty-heavy Washington lineup, tossing 37 pitches Tuesday, which suggests Philadelphia is comfortable assigning Banks to record more than three outs if the situation calls for it.

Taillon did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Angels. He pitched 4.2 shutout innings, allowing two hits and four walks while striking out three.

Making his first start of the season, Taillon threw 85 pitches and uncharacteristically struggled with walks after walking just 1.9 batters per nine innings during the 2025 campaign. Taillon's fastball velocity was also down at 90.8 mph after he averaged 92.3 mph last season. Taillon's next start is lined up for Monday in Tampa Bay.

Maton (0-1) allowed two runs on two hits while retiring two batters in relief to take the loss Tuesday against the Angels. He walked two and struck out one.

Maton struggled in the sixth inning and ended up taking his first loss with his new team in a 2-0 defeat. The veteran righty looked much sharper across two scoreless appearances to start the season, and after he posted a 2.79 ERA in 61.1 innings for the Cardinals and Rangers last year, there's no reason to believe this will be anything more than a blip on the radar. Maton should continue to serve as a key setup option in front of closer Daniel Palencia.

Brown tossed 3.1 scoreless innings of relief in Tuesday's 2-0 loss to the Angels. He allowed a hit and a walk while striking out five.

Brown finished up the game for the Cubs, and he did enough to keep his team in the contest late but couldn't get any run support to potentially earn his first win of the year. The righty reliever has now covered exactly 3.1 innings in both of his two relief outings so far this season, and he's allowed two runs while striking out eight. Brown can rack up strikeouts in a hurry, which would make him someone worth keeping an eye on if he were to slide into Chicago's rotation. For now, he's mostly off the fantasy radar as a long reliever.

Senga (0-1) took the loss against the Cardinals on Tuesday, allowing two runs on four hits and three walks while striking out nine across six innings.

Senga's stuff looked good, and his increased fastball velocity carried over from the spring. After sitting at 94.7 mph with his fastball last season, Senga's four-seamer averaged 97.4 mph against St. Louis on Tuesday. He also generated 17 whiffs on 92 total pitches, but walks remained an issue for the right-hander after he walked 4.4 batters per nine innings in 2025. The third inning proved to be the difference for Senga on Tuesday, as he gave up three straight hits to begin the frame, including a two-run double to Ivan Herrera. Senga retired 12 of the final 14 he faced. Senga's next start is scheduled for Sunday against the Giants in San Francisco.
