  • Mitch White RP | MIL

    Blue Jays' Mitch White: Loses in team debut

    White (1-3) took the loss Saturday versus the Twins. He allowed three runs on six hits and a walk with two strikeouts in 4.2 innings.

    White's Blue Jays debut was not sharp. Jorge Polanco had a couple of run-scoring hits against White, who failed to complete five frames for the first time in his last five appearances. The right-hander has a 3.86 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 49:20 K:BB through 60.2 innings across 16 appearances (11 starts) between the Blue Jays and the Dodgers this year. Assuming he stays in Toronto's rotation, he lines up for a home start versus the Guardians next week.

  • Austin Voth RP | MIN

    Orioles' Austin Voth: Another effective outing

    Voth (2-1) gave up three earned runs over five innings and picked up the win in Saturday's victory over the Pirates. He allowed six hits, struck out five batters and walked one.

    Voth has proven to be quite the pickup, posting a 3.19 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 36:11 K:BB over 36.2 innings since the Orioles claimed him off waivers from the Nationals in early June. His next start is projected to be on the road either in Boston or Tampa, depending on if the Orioles need to adjust their rotation next week.

  • Erik Swanson RP | TOR

    Mariners' Erik Swanson: Snags save Saturday

    Swanson pitched a perfect inning and picked up his third save of the season in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Angels. He struck out one.

    Manager Scott Servais opted to save usual closer Paul Sewald for the nightcap, so Swanson got a chance to close out Saturday's opener and did just that. Swanson has been as stingy as they come this season, and he now owns a 1.07 ERA over 33.2 innings.

  • Jaime Barria RP | CLE

    Angels' Jaime Barria: Takes loss in spot start

    Barria (1-2) allowed two earned runs over 4.2 innings and took the loss in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Mariners. He gave up three hits, struck out three batters and walked four.

    Barria started Saturday for the first time all season, and although he was fairly effective, he did not make it out of the fifth inning. It remains to be seen if he will start next time through the rotation or if he will resume pitching in a relief role. Through 21 appearances, Barria has a 2.65 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 41:14 K:BB across 57.2 innings.

  • Dylan Coleman RP | NYY

    Royals' Dylan Coleman: Snags third win

    Coleman (3-1) pitched a perfect inning to earn the win Saturday over the Red Sox.

    Coleman did his part to keep the game tied in the ninth inning, and he became the pitcher of record when Nick Pratto hit a two-out, walkoff solo home run in the bottom of the frame. Since the start of July, Coleman has allowed four runs (three earned) in 13.2 innings while adding five holds as he continues to work his way into a higher-leverage role. For the season, he owns a 2.80 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 44:31 K:BB in addition to nine holds through 45 innings.

  • Ron Marinaccio RP | CIN

    Yankees' Ron Marinaccio: Sent down Saturday

    Marinaccio was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

    Marinaccio allowed just one earned run and struck out 26 batters over his last 22.2 innings, but he will be the pitcher who cedes his roster spot to Frankie Montas, who will be added to the active roster to start Sunday's series finale versus the Cardinals. Given his success, Marinaccio will likely be the top option the next time the Yankees need to bring up a reliever from the minors.

  • Athletics' Adrian Martinez: Set to start Sunday

    Martinez will be called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to start Sunday's game against the Giants, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Martinez had mixed results over four starts with the big club earlier in the season, and he will get another chance to show what he can do in the final game of the Bay Bridge Series. He threw at least 91 pitches in his last three starts with Triple-A, so don't expect him to be on a pitch count.

  • Tim Mayza RP | PHI

    Blue Jays' Tim Mayza: Diagnosed with dislocated shoulder

    Mayza left Saturday's game against the Twins with a right shoulder dislocation.

    It's not yet clear how much time Mayza will miss, but he could be facing an extended absence. Mayza owns a 2.88 ERA over 41 appearances on the season, so his absence will be a blow to the Blue Jays' bullpen. The one benefit here for the southpaw is that the dislocation is not on his pitching arm.

  • Tim Mayza RP | PHI

    Blue Jays' Tim Mayza: Exits with injury

    Mayza left Saturday's game with a right shoulder injury, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

    It's not immediately clear what type of injury Mayza is dealing with, but he was forced to leave the game after colliding with Minnesota's Nick Gordon while attempting to field a bunt. Mayza's status will be updated again when more information is available.

  • Athletics' Brent Honeywell: Continues making progress

    Honeywell (elbow) will throw two simulated innings in live batting practice Monday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    The oft-injured righty hasn't pitched all season while recovering from a stress reaction in his right elbow. He's been throwing bullpen sessions for at least two weeks now, but the length of his absence and his extensive injury history means the Athletics will likely continue to bring him along very cautiously.
