Adames went 3-for-3 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Saturday's 15-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

Adames had gone just 2-for-17 over his previous five games, but he broke the slump in a big way Saturday. He set a new career high for homers in a season with a solo shot in the fourth inning after blasting a grand slam during the Brewers' seven-run second. The shortstop is up to a .253/.334/.476 slash line over 148 contests, and he's added personal bests in stolen bases (18), RBI (107) and runs scored (87) this year.

Myers (8-5) allowed four runs on nine hits and struck out three without walking a batter over six-plus innings to earn the win Saturday over the Diamondbacks.

The Brewers spotted Myers with a 13-run lead before he faltered in the sixth and seventh innings. He hasn't exactly been stellar in recent weeks with just one quality start of his last six outings, though he has a 31:9 K:BB over 32.1 innings in that span. Myers is now at a 3.07 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 115:33 K:BB through 126 innings over 24 appearances (23 starts) this year. The rookie right-hander is projected to make his next start at home in a rematch with the Diamondbacks.

Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a stolen base and two total runs scored in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

The steal was Crow-Armstrong's first since he swiped three bags versus the Pirates on Aug. 26. The outfielder has put together a decent September so far, going 12-for-41 (.293) with three extra-base hits over 12 contests, though he also has 16 strikeouts in that span. For the year, he's at a .238/.289/396 slash line with nine homers, 27 thefts, 44 RBI and 39 runs scored over 109 games.

Happ went 2-for-5 with one RBI and two stolen bases in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

Happ notched his fourth multi-hit effort over 12 games in September. He's 14-for-51 (.275) in that span, though he's supplied just two extra-base hits. The outfielder is up to 13 steals this year, one off his career high from last season. He's added a decent .244/.342/.450 slash line with 23 home runs, 82 RBI and 83 runs scored across 141 games.

Bellinger went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

Bellinger is seeing the ball well in September, going 14-for-46 (.304) with four homers and 12 RBI over 12 contests this month. Three of those homers have come over his last five games, a span in which he also has a trio of multi-hit efforts. The 29-year-old is up to a .269/.332/.438 slash line with 18 homers, 69 RBI, 67 runs scored and nine stolen bases across 118 contests in 2024.

Hodge allowed two runs on one hit and one walk while striking out two over one inning, taking a blown save in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

Hodge suffered his first blown save since ascending to the closer role, allowing a two-run home run to pinch hitter Sam Hilliard with two outs in the ninth inning. That blast ended a 15-inning scoreless streak for Hodge, who has emerged as one of the Cubs' most reliable relievers in the second half. He's now at a 2.08 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 48:18 K:BB with five saves, nine holds and three blown saves over 39 innings this season. Hodge has been scored on in just five of his 35 appearances.

Taillon allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six over six-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Saturday.

Taillon kept the hosts off the board through five frames, but gave up a run on a sacrifice fly in the sixth before Pete Crow-Armstrong tagged him for a solo shot in the seventh. This was Taillon's third straight quality start to begin September -- he's allowed just three runs over 19 innings this month. The right-hander is now at a 3.54 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 119:29 K:BB through 152.1 innings over 26 starts this season. His next outing is projected to be at home versus the Nationals.

Toglia went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Cubs.

Toglia is 9-for-32 (.281) with three homers over his last nine contests. His blast Saturday was part of a comeback push for the Rockies, as he cut the Cubs' lead to 3-2 in the seventh inning. Toglia continues to impress with power, boasting 24 homers and a .473 slugging percentage through 103 contests. He's batting just .221 on the year with 51 RBI, 58 runs scored and eight stolen bases, though he's found more consistency at the plate in September.

Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Cubs.

Blackmon delivered the Rockies' lone multi-hit effort Saturday. The veteran is hitting .286 (10-for-35) over 10 contests in September, with three of those games being multi-hit performances. He's up to a .251/.320/.389 slash line with nine home runs, 45 RBI, 51 runs scored and six stolen bases across 113 games this season.

Hilliard hit a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Rockies.

Hilliard delivered a game-tying, two-out blast in the ninth inning, and the Rockies went on to win in the 10th. Over his last nine games, Hilliard has four homers and eight RBI. The outfielder is at a .248/.302/.533 slash line with eight long balls, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored and four stolen bases over 119 plate appearances this season. He continues to fill a depth role for the Rockies, rotating in as a reserve outfielder versus right-handed pitchers.
