Boyd didn't factor into the decision Sunday against Colorado, allowing four runs on six hits and one walk with five strikeouts across six innings.

Boyd surrendered at least four runs for a third consecutive start, though he didn't allow a home run and walked fewer than three batters -- both things he wasn't able to do in the first two outings of that stretch. The left-hander has taken three losses in his last five starts, posting a 5.65 ERA and a 24:8 K:BB across 28.2 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Nationals his next time out.

Smith went 2-for-2 with an RBI double and two runs scored during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.

Smith drew three walks in addition to his pair of hits Sunday, marking his second game with three walks this season. The 28-year-old hadn't logged multiple hits in 15 straight games, going 10-for-55 (.182) during that stretch. He's slashing .257/.337/.379 in 438 plate appearances during 2025.

Pederson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an RBI double during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.

The 33-year-old tagged J.T. Ginn for a two-run homer in the first inning, marking Pederson's fourth home run in his last 38 plate appearances spanning nine games. He had gone yard just four times in 195 plate appearances before the stretch. In those nine games, Pederson is 12-for-38 (.316) with 12 RBI and three doubles.

Jung went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an RBI double during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.

Jung has a hit in eight consecutive games and has notched multiple hits six times during that stretch. He's recorded two homers along with three doubles and is 17-for-34 (.500) across those eight games. The third baseman endured a 5-for-43 (.116) slump immediately before catching fire.

Wilson went 3-for-5 with a two-RBI double and a run scored during Sunday's 9-6 loss to the Rangers.

Wilson notched his first three-hit game since June 7, a streak that spanned 42 games. The shortstop also logged multiple RBI for the third time in his last six games. Since returning from the injured list Aug. 22, Wilson is 11-for-33 (.333) with two homers, two doubles and a 1:1 BB:K.

Ginn (2-6) took the loss Sunday against Texas, allowing five runs on five hits and two walks with seven strikeouts over six innings.

Ginn surrendered a pair of home runs during the start, yielding a two-run home run in the first inning to Joc Pederson and a solo shot to Josh Jung in the second. Ginn has now allowed seven home runs in his last six starts. He's 0-5 with a 7.52 ERA and a 33:12 K:BB across 26.1 innings during that stretch. He's on track to face the Angels his next time out.

DeGrom (11-6) picked up the win Sunday against the Athletics, allowing two hits and one walk with six strikeouts over five scoreless innings.

DeGrom had taken a loss in each of his last four decisions, a five-start stretch in which he posted a 5.00 ERA and a 33:7 K:BB across 27 innings. He got back on track in a major way Sunday, hurling his second scoreless outing in his last 10 starts. On the year, deGrom has a 2.69 ERA and a 161:33 K:BB across 150.1 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Astros his next time out.

Jansen picked up the save Sunday against the Astros, throwing a perfect ninth inning. He did not record a strikeout.

Jansen became the ninth player in baseball to hit the 25-save milestone this season, and he did so by retiring Yordan Alvarez, Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa in order. Jansen has now fired three consecutive hitless innings, a streak that follows back-to-back losses during which Jansen yielded three runs across two innings total. He has a 2.94 ERA in 52 innings this season.

Brown (10-7) took the loss Sunday against the Angels, allowing one run on three hits and three walks across six innings. He struck out five.

Brown notched a fourth straight quality start -- a streak that includes a six-run (two earned) outing against the Rockies in Houston -- but the Astros offense failed to scrape across a run, leaving him with the loss. Brown has been excellent lately, boasting a 1.71 ERA and a 38:13 K:BB in 42.2 innings across his last seven starts. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Rangers in his next start.

Soriano (10-9) picked up the win Sunday against Houston, allowing one hit and three walks across seven scoreless innings. He struck out eight.

Soriano delivered his third scoreless start of his last four outings, shutting down the Astros and notching his most strikeouts in his last 12 appearances. A five-run start against the Athletics on Aug. 17 spoiled Soriano's stats over that four-start stretch. Soriano had five scoreless outings in 24 starts before his recent streak. Through 161.1 innings, Soriano has a 3.68 ERA and a 144:68 K:BB. He's tentatively scheduled to make his next start at home against the A's.
