Stephenson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Cubs.

The southpaw left the mound after 84 pitches (55 strikes) in line for his sixth win, but the bullpen let the lead slip away before Atlanta's offense rallied late. Wentz's performances have been erratic since joining the rotation, and over his last eight starts he's failed to complete five innings four times, leading to a 5.64 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 37:14 K:BB through 36.2 innings during that span. He's scheduled to take the bump one more time in 2025, at home next weekend against the Pirates.

Bieber (3-2) conceded two runs on four hits and one walk over 6.1 innings to take the loss Saturday against Kansas City. He struck out four.

The Toronto right-hander picked up his second consecutive quality start, as both runs he yielded came on back-to-back solo homers by Bobby Witt and Vinnie Pasquantino in the fourth inning. The one-time Cy Young Award winner has been splendid in his 35.1 total innings, pitching to a 3.57 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 34:5 K:BB. Bieber is tentatively slated to make his final start of the season at home against the Red Sox next week; however, that could change if the Blue Jays shuffle around their rotation in preparation for the playoffs.

Cameron (9-7) earned the win in Saturday's contest against the Blue Jays, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over 6.2 innings with five strikeouts.

The rookie southpaw reached the double-digit mark in quality starts, as he looked sharp in this 98-pitch performance while generating a respectable 12 whiffs. The only blemish on his line was a 437-foot solo homer given up to Daulton Varsho in the seventh, which chased Cameron from the game. The Central Arkansas product has been a steady fantasy contributor in the second half, putting up a 3.53 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 50:17 K:BB across 63.2 frames since the All-Star break. Cameron will look to continue his recent success in his next start, which is currently scheduled to come on the road against the Athletics next weekend.

Pagan earned the save in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Cubs, allowing one hit and striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.

Pagan was called on to protect a three-run lead in the ninth and needed just 13 pitches to secure his second save in as many days. Since blowing a save to open the month Sept. 1, the 34-year-old has converted three straight opportunities while allowing only one earned run over his past eight outings.

The Royals star opened the game's scoring with a 422-foot solo shot off Toronto starter Shane Bieber in the fourth.

Overall, the 25-year-old shortstop his now slashing .293/.352/.503 with 96 runs scored and 82 RBI across 654 plate appearances.

Estevez has blown only one save in the second half -- his first appearance post-All-Star break July 18 -- as he's pitched to a 1.98 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 17:1 K:BB in 22.2 innings while converting 15 saves since then.
