Brooks is not in Thursday's lineup against the Dodgers.

Brooks sat against a lefty Tuesday but will now sit with Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the mound Thursday. Jose Iglesias will enter the lineup as the designated hitter and bat seventh.

Taillon (7-4) took the loss against the Brewers on Thursday, allowing five runs on eight hits and one walk with two strikeouts over four innings.

Taillon allowed five runs over his first three innings Thursday, snapping a five-game win streak that dated back to May 20. While the 33-year-old has delivered 10 quality starts in 15 outings this season, he now leads the National League with 18 home runs allowed after surrendering two more in this one. He owns a 3.84 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 67:17 K:BB across 86.2 innings and will look to rebound in a road matchup with the Cardinals next week.

Doval picked up the save in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Guardians, fanning one during a clean ninth inning.

Doval is now up to 11 saves for the season, and he continues to be effective as San Francisco's closer. Since officially being named the club's stopper by manager Bob Melvin on May 28, Doval has converted six of his seven save opportunities and has posted a 2.53 ERA with 13 strikeouts over his last 10.2 innings. However, the hard-throwing right-hander does have a shaky 1.69 WHIP during that period, so he has some control issues to iron out.

Wade is not in Thursday's lineup against the Athletics.

Wade's playing time is drying up even in the absence of Jackson Merrill (concussion), as he's been out of the lineup in five of the Padres' last six games. Bryce Johnson is in center field for Thursday's game, drawing his second straight start.

Peralta (7-4) earned the win against the Cubs on Thursday, allowing three runs on two hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings.

All three runs surrendered by Peralta came via the long ball, and he departed at 86 pitches with an 8-3 lead before the Cubs made a late push. While the 29-year-old snapped a streak of three straight quality starts, he's now yielded three earned runs or fewer in 15 of 16 outings this season. He'll carry a 2.76 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 90:34 K:BB across 88 innings into a home matchup with the Pirates next week.

Megill earned the save in Thursday' 8-7 win over the Cubs, allowing one walk with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.

Megill was summoned to protect a one-run lead in the ninth and worked around a leadoff walk to close things out on 16 pitches. The 31-year-old has now converted nine saves in his past 10 appearances, with the lone exception being a blown save June 7. On the season, he's 16-for-18 in save chances with a 2.84 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 30:13 K:BB across 25.1 innings.

Webb (7-5) registered the win Thursday against the Guardians, giving up one run on seven hits and no walks in seven innings. He struck out nine.

That's now five quality starts in a row for Webb, who has fanned at least nine on three occasions during that stretch. The star right-hander submitted his MLB-high 12th quality start on the year, although he's perhaps even more impressively tossed at least seven innings while yielding two runs or fewer eight times among his 16 outings in 2025. Webb is also averaging 10.1 strikeouts per nine innings this year, which would be a career high if it holds up, and he'll tote a superb 2.49 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 114:20 K:BB across 101.1 frames into his next scheduled appearance versus the Marlins.

Baty (groin) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta, but he could be available off the bench, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

Ronny Mauricio will pick up a third consecutive start at third base while Baty sits due to a groin injury he suffered Sunday. The Mets were considering placing Baty on the injured list Wednesday, but he arrived at the ballpark Thursday feeling much better and showed improvement during pregame drills. That bodes well for his chances of avoiding a stint on the injured list, but it remains unclear when he'll be cleared to appear in a game again.

Conforto isn't in the lineup against the Padres on Thursday.

Conforto is on the bench for the second consecutive night with Andy Pages, Hyeseong Kim and Teoscar Hernandez starting in the outfield again. Manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that Conforto is still going to make regular starts, but Kim may see increased time in the lineup, per Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com.

Fedde did not factor into the decision in Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader against the White Sox, allowing two runs (one earned) on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts over five innings.

Fedde opened with three scoreless innings before allowing two runs over the fourth and fifth, one of which was the result of a two-out error. The 32-year-old has now yielded three earned runs or fewer in five straight outings, though he's gone deep enough to earn a quality start just once during that stretch. He'll carry a 3.54 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 55:36 K:BB across 84 innings into a home matchup with the Cubs next week.
