Soriano allowed four runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks while striking out four over four innings in a no-decision Thursday versus the Mariners.

Soriano gave up all four runs in the second inning, with an error allowing Seattle to extend its early rally. This was a better performance than his last start, but Soriano has allowed 12 runs (11 earned) over 6.1 innings in September and has given up four or more runs in four of his last seven starts. He's at a 4.13 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 152:76 K:BB through 167.2 innings over 30 starts this season. The 26-year-old's next outing is projected to be at Milwaukee, but it's worth noting he was pushed back a day for this turn through the rotation. With a number of the Angels' starters laboring, the team may consider going to a six-man unit to ease everyone's burden, though the pitching plans for the remainder of the season are not yet known.

Arozarena went 2-for-4 with two walks, one stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 7-6, extra-innings win over the Angels.

Arozarena has gone 10-for-24 (.417) during his six-game hitting streak, and he's added three steals and seven RBI in that span. The outfielder has remained an effective run producer even in the leadoff spot. For the season, Arozarena is sporting a .246/.345/.451 slash line with 27 home runs, 28 steals, 73 RBI, 89 runs scored, 30 doubles and one triple over 145 contests.

Rodriguez went 2-for-5 with a double, a walk, two RBI and one stolen base in Thursday's 7-6, extra-innings win over the Angels.

Rodriguez was on the front end of a double steal with one out in the 10th inning, but the Mariners left him stranded on third base. This was his fourth multi-hit effort over his last six games, and he's now hitting .273 (12-for-44) with 11 RBI over 10 contests in September. The outfielder is up to a .267/.317/.474 slash line with 30 home runs, 26 steals, 89 RBI, 95 runs scored, 27 doubles and four triples over 146 contests. A productive end of the year on the basepaths would help him secure his second 30-30 campaign in four MLB seasons, but he would need to pick up the pace, as he has just six steals over his last 37 contests.

Crawford went 2-for-5 with a double, three RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Angels.

This was Crawford's third multi-hit effort in his last five games. The shortstop opened the scoring with a two-run double in the second inning and added an RBI single in the 11th to tie it at 5-5, keeping the game alive before the Mariners walked it off in the 12th. Prior to Thursday, Crawford had logged just one RBI and no extra-base hits over his previous 14 games and hadn't recorded a steal since Aug. 9 versus the Rays. On the season, he has a .263/.353/.355 slash line with nine home runs, eight steals, 50 RBI and 63 runs scored over 143 contests.

Naylor went 0-for-5 with two stolen bases and one run scored in Thursday's 7-6, extra-innings win over the Angels.

Naylor swiped a bag after reaching on catcher's interference in the 10th inning, and his second steal came as the designated runner in the 12th before coming around to score the tying run in that frame. The first baseman continues to pick his moments on the basepaths with five steals over his last 11 contests. Overall, he's up to 27 thefts on 29 attempts while adding 19 home runs, 80 RBI, 74 runs scored and a .283/.344/.451 slash line over 134 games between Seattle and Arizona this season.

Miller allowed four runs on six hits and struck out 11 without walking a batter in a no-decision Thursday versus the Angels.

The 11 strikeouts established a single-game career high for the right-hander. He also gave up two home runs in the contest, the latter of which tied the game at 4-4 and ultimately forced extra innings. Miller has allowed 16 runs over 27 innings with a 25:6 K:BB across five starts since returning from elbow inflammation. For the season, he's at a 5.59 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 64:29 K:BB through 75.2 innings over 15 starts. Miller is projected to make his next start at Kansas City.

Moniak went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Thursday's 2-0 loss to the Padres.

Moniak had the lone multi-hit effort for the Rockies, accounting for half of their hit total. He ended an 0-for-11 skid at the plate over his previous four games. The outfielder is also up to seven steals on 10 attempts this season after swiping a bag in the defeat. Moniak has added 19 home runs, 57 RBI, 54 runs scored and a .262/.301/.494 slash line across 123 contests while being a lineup regular for Colorado.

Rushing (lower leg) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Rushing has been sidelined since Saturday with a shin injury, but it appears that he has the chance to be activated after a minimum stint on the injured list. He went 1-for-4 with a double and caught all nine innings of Thursday's game.

Brown (0-4) allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.1 innings to take the loss Thursday versus the Padres.

This was Brown's longest start and also featured the fewest runs allowed of his four major-league outings so far. However, the Rockies mustered just four hits in the whole game, giving the rookie right-hander next to nothing for offensive support. Brown is now at a 9.88 ERA, 2.12 WHIP and 10:9 K:BB across 13.2 innings in the majors. He'll remain tough to trust in fantasy for the rest of the campaign. Brown's next start is tentatively projected to be at home versus the Marlins.

Arraez went 3-for-4 with one RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Rockies.

Arraez had gone just 1-for-13 at the plate since his last three-hit effort Saturday. The infielder drove in the Padres' opening run in the third inning and picked up his second steal in six games. On the year, Arraez is up to a .285/.320/.387 slash line with seven home runs, 55 RBI, 58 runs scored and 11 steals across 141 contests.
