Gasser didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Cardinals after allowing one run on a hit and a walk while striking out nine over six innings.

Gasser dominated St. Louis for most of his outing, with the Cardinals' only hit against him coming on Ivan Herrera's solo home run in the fourth inning. However, the bullpen wasted his strong start and ultimately erased Gasser's chance to close out the regular season with a win. It remains to be seen whether Gasser will be part of the Brewers' rotation in the NLDS, but the third-year veteran posted strong numbers in his first full season as a major-league starter. In 21 appearances (20 starts) and 109.1 innings, Gasser delivered a 3.87 ERA and 1.19 WHIP while posting a 103:35 K:BB.

McGreevy didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Brewers after allowing four runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out two over 4.2 innings.

McGreevy struggled to keep Milwaukee off the bases before departing with two outs in the fifth, and while Milwaukee jumped to a 4-1 lead, the Cardinals later erased the early deficit. McGreevy closes the season with some ups and downs, but he went undefeated in his last 10 starts, going 3-0 with a 4.78 ERA across 52.2 innings. For the year, the third-year hurler posted career-high marks in innings pitched (168.2), starts (31) and ERA (3.95), among several other categories.

Pearson (2-4) took the loss after allowing four runs on four walks without a strikeout or a hit allowed over two-thirds of an inning Friday against the Guardians.

Pearson endured his worst outing of the campaign, allowing a season-high four runs during Friday's loss. Since joining the Royals, Pearson has posted a 4.62 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 25:13 K:BB in 25.1 innings.

Perez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and a walk during Friday's 12-9 loss to the Guardians.

Perez launched a homer in his second consecutive game Friday. The 36-year-old belted a two-run shot in the ninth inning off Matt Festa to cut into the lead. After Friday's performance, Perez is slashing .229/.273/.382 with 21 homers and 77 RBI in 620 plate appearances this season.

Caglianone went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a strikeout during Friday's 12-9 loss to Cleveland.

Caglianone recorded his fourth multi-hit effort in his last five games, picking up three base knocks. The 23-year-old got the scoring started for the Royals with an RBI double in the first and then added an RBI single in the fourth to take the lead. Over his last 30 games, Caglianone is batting a scorching-hot .358/.409/.491 with two homers and 21 RBI in 112 plate appearances.

Jensen went 2-for-4 with two home runs, five RBI and a strikeout during Friday's 12-9 loss to the Guardians.

Jensen recorded his second multi-homer game of the month and first since Sept. 2. The 23-year-old catcher blasted a two-run homer in the second off Gavin Williams to tie the game and launched another two-run shot off Hunter Gaddis in the eighth to tie the game again. Over his last 30 games, Jensen is slashing .300/.392/.691 with 11 homers and 25 RBI in 126 plate appearances.

Arroyo went 2-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Angels.

Arroyo has hit safely in just five of his 13 games in the majors, but three of those instances have included multiple hits. The rookie is batting .310 with an .883 OPS, one home run, two steals, four RBI, four runs scored and two doubles over 35 plate appearances. Consistency is still a work in progress, but Arroyo is poised to compete for an everyday job in the not-too-distant future.

Canzone went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Angels.

Canzone's ninth-inning blast got the Mariners within two runs, but they couldn't tie the game. The outfielder has hit safely in 20 of 22 games this month, going 27-for-89 (.303) with 10 extra-base hits and 16 RBI in September. Canzone has generally been a bright spot in his first full big-league campaign, batting .264 with an .821 OPS, 23 homers, 77 RBI, 58 runs scored, 27 doubles, four triples and two stolen bases over 144 contests.

Miller (4-10) allowed five runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings to take the loss Friday versus the Angels.

Miller had a decent start going through five innings before Christian Moore tagged him for a three-run home run in the sixth. Miller's campaign was a tale of two halves -- he had a 1.71 ERA over his first nine outings, but he went winless (0-8) over his last 13 games, posting a 6.14 ERA across 66 innings in that span. It shakes out as a 4.17 ERA overall, along with a 1.16 WHIP and 119:38 K:BB across 118.2 innings through 22 games (21 starts). The silver linings were Miller improving his strikeout, walk and home run rates from last year while staying healthy after opening the year with an oblique strain.

Cameron did not factor into the decision during Friday's 12-9 loss to the Guardians. He allowed seven runs (six earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out three over five innings.

Cameron allowed his most runs since July 19. Despite the seven spot, the left-hander completed his 15th consecutive outing of at least five innings dating back to July 6. The lefty served up long balls to David Fry and Austin Hedges while allowing 11 total base runners. With this being his last appearance of the season, the 27-year-old wraps up 2026 with a 9-8 record, 4.11 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 158:58 K:BB in 177.1 innings.
