Chourio went 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Orioles.

With the pair of steals, Chourio is up to 21 thefts on the year. He's secured a third straight 20-20 campaign to begin his career -- he also has a personal-best 24 home runs through just 121 contests. Chourio has picked up the running with seven steals in September alone. He's batting .285 with an .825 OPS across 553 plate appearances.

Contreras went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Orioles.

Contreras has hit safely in his last nine games, going 11-for-36 (.306) with four homers and 14 RBI in that span. The catcher has been given a couple of full off days down the stretch, and that may continue as the Brewers are running out of things to clinch. Contreras is batting .271 with a .765 OPS, 18 homers, 88 RBI, 82 runs scored, 27 doubles, one triple and one stolen base across 142 contests.

Megill struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Orioles.

Megill has allowed five runs over his last 4.1 innings, including a blown save versus Baltimore on Friday. The closer was sharp in this outing, picking up his 29th save in 32 chances this year. He's added a 2.72 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 67:15 K:BB and seven holds over 59.2 innings. With one more save over the final week of the campaign, he'll match his career-best total from last year.

Scott picked up the save in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Giants. He allowed no hits and a walk while striking out one over a scoreless inning.

Entering with a two-run cushion, Scott worked through a two-out walk to secure his 23rd save in 27 opportunities this season. The southpaw has posted a 4.61 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB across 13.2 innings in his past 15 appearances, though much of that damage came in a three-run outing Sept. 13 against the Marlins. On the year, Scott owns a 2.77 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 78:15 K:BB over 61.2 frames.

Misiorowski allowed a hit and struck out four without walking a batter over three shutout innings in a no-decision versus the Orioles on Sunday. Per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, this was an intentionally planned short outing for Misiorowski to keep his innings in check ahead of the postseason.

McCalvy adds that Misiorowski is expected to see more regular usage in his last projected start of the regular season at home versus the Cardinals, which will line him up to take the mound during the NLDS. Since the All-Star break, Misiorowski has allowed just 16 runs (15 earned) over 58.1 innings, adding an 80:15 K:BB in that span. For the year, he's at a 1.86 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 247:42 K:BB through 169.1 innings over 29 starts. The good news for fantasy managers is that Misiorowski is expected to have one more start even if the Brewers clinch everything they can before it's his turn to pitch again.

Wilkinson did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing three hits and no walks over five scoreless innings against the Dodgers. He struck out six.

Wilkinson silenced the Dodgers offense, spinning five shutout innings before departing at 76 pitches (51 strikes). Sunday marked the rookie's first start since Sept. 4, as his previous two outings came from the bullpen. In seven appearances (five starts), the southpaw owns a 1-3 record with a 3.65 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB in 24.2 frames. Should Wilkinson remain in the rotation, he's lined up to start Saturday in a rematch with Los Angeles.

Young (9-5) allowed two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out nine over six innings to take the loss versus the Brewers on Sunday.

Young had a decent performance, but he didn't get any run support. The nine strikeouts were a season high for the right-hander, who continues to produce mostly good outings despite being winless over his last seven games. He's at a 3.62 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 127:58 K:BB through 151.2 innings over 27 starts this season. He's projected to wrap up his campaign with a road matchup against the Yankees.

Sheehan did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing a hit and a walk while striking out nine over 5.1 scoreless innings of bulk relief against the Giants.

Entering in the second inning after Jack Dreyer, Sheehan was dominant in bulk relief, allowing just two batters to reach on his watch. The 26-year-old has looked phenomenal in three September appearances, permitting just one run over 17 innings with a 24:3 K:BB. On the year, the right-hander owns a 5-8 record with a 4.57 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 132:33 K:BB in 112.1 innings (23 appearances). With several moving parts in the Dodgers rotation, it remains to be seen if Sheehan will log another regular-season outing, but if he does, it'll likely come on the road against the Giants over the weekend.

Bell went 3-for-4 with two RBI, a run scored and a walk in Sunday's 8-0 win over the Angels.

Bell logged an RBI single in each of the third and fifth innings as part of a three-hit effort. The veteran is in the midst of a modest five-game hitting streak and is hitting .297/.361/.453 with three homers, eight RBI and eight runs in 17 September contests. Overall, Bell is slashing .258/.320/.421 with 20 homers, 91 RBI, 76 runs and two stolen bases across 149 games.

Lee went 3-for-4 with three runs scored in Sunday's victory over the Angels.

Lee logged three singles, marking his eighth contest of the season with three-plus hits. Through 18 games in September, the infielder is hitting .290/.320/.377 with a homer, five RBI, 10 runs and a stolen base. On the year, Lee is slashing .253/.301/.430 with 23 homers, 81 RBI, 71 runs and eight stolen bases in 150 contests.
