Matos went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and a stolen base in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Marlins.

Matos drew his first start since Monday and broke out of an 0-for-18 slump by giving the Giants a 4-0 lead with a 390-foot homer in the fourth inning. He later added a single and a stolen base in the ninth. Despite the encouraging performance, the 23-year-old owns an ugly .167/.211/.361 slash with four home runs, seven RBI, nine runs scored and two steals across 76 plate appearances on the season.

Heaney allowed two runs on five hits and struck out three without walking a batter over 5.2 innings in a no-decision Sunday versus the Padres.

Heaney rebounded well from his previous outing, in which he allowed five runs over five innings against Arizona. He came up an out short of a quality start Sunday, and he also missed out on the win after Tanner Rainey and Caleb Ferguson combined to squander the Pirates' lead in the seventh inning. Heaney is now at a 3.39 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 47:24 K:BB across 66.1 innings over 12 starts this season. He's allowed two runs or fewer in four of his last five starts and in eight of his 12 outings this year. He is projected to make his next start at home versus the Phillies.

Machado went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.

Machado's homer opened the scoring in the first inning. He then restored the lead for the Padres during their rally in the seventh, supplying the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly. His seven-game hitting streak ended Saturday, but the third baseman is 11-for-34 (.324) across his last nine contests, a span that has seen him hit four of his seven homers this year. He's added 27 RBI, 40 runs scored, seven stolen bases, 17 doubles and a .308/.373/.488 slash line through 57 games this season.

Suarez struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.

Suarez's scoreless streak is up to 5.1 innings, a span in which he's struck out six while allowing just three hits. Outside of a five-run disaster May 12 versus the Angels, Suarez has been nearly untouchable this season. He's maintained a 2.13 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 28:8 K:BB while converting 19 of 21 save chances over 25.1 innings. He's already over halfway to surpassing his total of 36 saves from the 2024 regular season.

Vasquez allowed four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Pirates on Sunday.

Vasquez had gone six starts without allowing more than three runs, but that streak ended Sunday. He gave up home runs to Andrew McCutchen and Adam Frazier, which accounted for three of the four runs on his line. The long ball has been an issue lately, as Vasquez has given up seven homers over his last five starts. For the season, the right-hander has a 3.99 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 35:30 K:BB over 58.2 innings across 12 starts, numbers that suggest he has gotten fairly lucky so far. He is tentatively projected to make his next start at Milwaukee.

Megill allowed a hit in a scoreless inning to earn a save against the Phillies on Sunday. He struck out one batter.

Megill coughed up a leadoff single from Brandon Marsh before retiring three straight batters to close out the 5-2 win. It was Megill's 11th save in 12 attempts, and he's converted 10 straight. He's given up two runs over 14.2 frames (1.23 ERA) since blowing a save chance April 12. Megill owns a 2.33 ERA with a 21:11 K:BB through 19.1 innings.

Edwards went 5-for-5 with a double, one RBI and one run scored in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Giants.

Edwards made his first start at second base and was responsible for the bulk of the Marlins' offense, scoring their first run in the sixth inning and driving in another in the seventh. According to Justin Morris of MLB.com, he tied a franchise record for hits in a game with his first career five-hit performance. The 25-year-old is now slashing .282/.352/.316 with 12 RBI, 19 runs scored and 11 steals across 200 plate appearances this season.

Suarez did not factor in the decision during Sunday's loss to Milwaukee. He allowed two runs (one earned) on seven hits while striking out two over six-plus frames.

Suarez gave up a run through six innings before he was charged with an unearned run in the seventh. He faced just one batter in the frame, yielding a double to Caleb Durbin before exiting the contest. Suarez's two punchouts and five swinging strikes were both the lowest he's produced this season. He was tagged with seven runs in his season debut but has since turned in five straight quality starts with a 1.10 ERA during that span. Suarez will carry a 2.72 ERA into his next start, which is projected to be in Pittsburgh.

Soto went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Rockies.

Soto was hit by a pitch and scored in the fourth inning before providing the Mets' bullpen with some insurance via a solo shot in the eighth. The 26-year-old entered the weekend mired in an 0-for-14 skid but broke out with four hits, including a double and two home runs, across three games against the Rockies. On the season, he's slashing .233/.363/.429 with 10 long balls, 28 RBI, 38 runs scored and seven steals over 259 plate appearances.

Alonso went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Rockies.

Alonso gave the Mets a 3-1 lead with a 407-foot blast in the fourth inning. The first baseman has now hit safely in eight straight games, a stretch that includes five extra-base hits and eight RBI. On the season, he's slashing .288/.384/.543 with 12 homers, 46 RBI and 32 runs scored across 258 plate appearances.
