On the campaign, Webb owns a 4.26 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 22:11 K:BB with five holds over 31.2 innings.

  • Felix Bautista RP | BAL

Since blowing his only save of the season May 21, the 29-year-old has converted six straight chances while giving up just one run over eight appearances. He's now 13-for-14 in save opportunities with a 3.18 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and 30:16 K:BB over 22.2 innings.

    It was the fifth save of the season for Garcia, who did make things interesting by loading the bases before recording the final out of the game. The 29-year-old left-hander has begun to see an increase in save opportunities in the Texas bullpen, although the results have been shaky so far. Garcia has gone 4-for-6 in save chances over his last 6.2 innings, during which he owns an 8.10 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 8:4 K:BB.

    Rays' Pete Fairbanks: Rebounds with 13th save Friday

It was ultimately an encouraging bounce-back showing by the hard-throwing right-hander, who yielded two runs in a blown save in his last outing. Although Fairbanks has issued 14 walks over 28.1 innings, he boasts a 2.22 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 25 strikeouts this season as Tampa Bay's closer.

  • Ryan Yarbrough RP | NYY

    Yankees' Ryan Yarbrough: Mixed results in no-decision

    Yarbrough did not factor into the decision in Friday's 2-1 extra-inning loss to the Red Sox, allowing one run on four hits and three walks with three strikeouts over 4.2 innings.

    Yarbrough allowed just one run in the second inning but tossed only one clean inning while throwing only 45 of 78 pitches for strikes. It was a solid rebound after the Red Sox tagged the 33-year-old for eight runs Saturday, though he's now failed to complete five frames in back-to-back outings. He'll carry a 3.96 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 46:16 K:BB across 50 innings into a home matchup with the Angels next week.

He'll now join the big-league squad to give the Mariners some extra bullpen depth and will likely be limited to low-leverage situations after posting a 5.81 ERA in the majors across the past two seasons. Logan Evans was optioned to Tacoma in a corresponding move.
