Ferrer (4-4) took the loss after allowing two runs on two hits over one-third of an inning Saturday against the Rockies.

Ferrer inherited runners on the corners with one out in the seventh inning and Seattle leading 3-1. Jake McCarthy's RBI groundout cut the lead in half before a fielding miscue extended the inning, and TJ Rumfield followed with a game-tying RBI single. Ferrer was then replaced by Cooper Criswell, who allowed another inherited runner to score on Cole Carrigg's go-ahead two-run single. Ferrer has been inconsistent in recent weeks, and despite not allowing runs in six of his eight appearances this month, he sports a 5.06 ERA with a 6:2 K:BB in 5.1 innings since the beginning of September.

Miller didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Rockies after allowing an unearned run on four hits and two walks while striking out six over 5.1 innings.

Miller delivered a much-needed bounce-back performance, holding Colorado without an earned run after entering Saturday with a 6.52 ERA over 10 starts since the All-Star break. Despite the inflated ERA, Miller seems to be ending the regular season on a high note, as he's given up two or fewer earned runs in three of his past four starts. It remains to be seen if he'll make another start before the end of the regular season.

Cecconi (5-7) was credited with Saturday's win over the Yankees, retiring the final six batters with two strikeouts over two scoreless innings.

Starter Tanner Bibee was pulled with two outs in the fourth inning and Cleveland leading, 11-6. Two relievers combined for 2.1 scoreless innings (and three walks) before Cecconi entered to finish the final two frames. Apparently, because the two relievers that followed Bibee were deemed to be ineffective, the official scorer gave the win to Cecconi. Since coming off the injured list earlier this month, he's operated as a multi-inning reliever and has allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 10 innings in four appearances.

Graceffo (8-2) took the loss after allowing four runs (two earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out one over one inning in Saturday's 8-5 extra-innings loss to the Nationals.

Graceffo entered the game in the 11th and quickly loaded the bases after allowing a single to Keibert Ruiz and walking Nasim Nunez. He never recovered and allowed four runs before escaping, and his offense couldn't respond in the bottom of the frame. This rough outing snapped a dominant stretch for Graceffo, who had gone 10 straight outings and 16.2 innings without allowing an earned run prior to Saturday.

McGreevy didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Nationals after allowing two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out one over four innings.

McGreevy fell behind immediately, allowing a leadoff single to James Wood before Daylen Lile launched a two-run homer to center field. The right-hander kept Washington scoreless over his next three frames, but he had to labor through them and was lifted after only four innings after throwing 88 pitches (56 strikes). McGreevy, who has a 3.84 ERA across 30 starts and 164 innings in 2026 and has not taken a loss since July 28, is expected to make his final start of the season Friday on the road against the Brewers.

Miles is slated to start Sunday's game against the Rangers in Arlington, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Miles will pick up his eighth start of the season, but he hasn't covered more than two innings in any appearance since the beginning of August and is unlikely to work more than once through the batting order. Spencer Arrighetti will be available to pitch on four days' rest and could be called upon to cover multiple frames once Miles exits the contest, per Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca.

Vargas went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a stolen base, two walks and two runs scored Saturday against the Tigers.

Vargas accounted for much of the White Sox's offense in a pivotal win. He reached base on a free pass in the first inning and then stole second before coming around to score. Vargas then led off the sixth frame with his 33rd homer of the season. He also swiped his 20th base of the campaign, his seventh since the start of September.

Dion earned his first career save after retiring the only batter he faced in Saturday's 8-5 extra-innings win over the Cardinals.

Dion inherited a bases-loaded jam with two outs in the bottom of the 11th and needed just two pitches to get the job done, retiring Leo Bernal on a flyout to right field to secure the win. This was Dion's first major-league save, although he hasn't been the Nationals' most reliable reliever lately, giving up multiple earned runs in three of his last seven appearances dating back to Aug. 26. Still, he owns a 3.92 ERA with a 1.06 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB in 20.2 innings over his last 10 outings.

Cornelio (3-2) earned the win in extra innings against the Cardinals on Saturday after allowing two unearned runs on three hits and a walk while striking out two over 1.2 innings.

Cornelio entered the game in the 10th inning and allowed the automatic runner to score on Masyn Winn's game-tying single. He returned in the 11th with a four-run cushion but again allowed the automatic runner to score, this time on a JJ Wetherholt single. Cornelio loaded the bases with no outs, then struck out Ivan Herrera and Jordan Walker before making way for Will Dion, who recorded the final out and earned the save. Since returning to the majors as part of September roster expansion. Cornelio has a 2.25 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB in 12 innings over five appearances.

Rocchio was removed from Saturday's 12-6 win over the Athletics with left leg tightness, MLB.com reports.

Rocchio, who was 1-for-3 with an RBI double and a run scored, was removed after five innings in what looked like a precautionary move with the Guardians leading 11-6. He was replaced by Angel Genao.
