Abreu allowed two hits and a walk in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Monday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.

Abreu erased his first mistake with a double play, then put two more runners on base before ending the game with another groundball out. He's allowed multiple baserunners in four of his last six appearances, allowing a total of eight runs over 5.2 innings in that span. Despite the recent struggles, he continues to serve as the fill-in closer while Josh Hader (shoulder) is out. Abreu has a 2.42 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 101:29 K:BB with six saves and 25 holds over 67 innings this season.

Blubaugh will start Tuesday's game against the Rangers in Houston, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

Blubaugh will be taking the hill on three days' rest, but because he tossed just one inning and 19 pitches in his relief appearance in Friday's 11-3 win over Atlanta, he should be relatively fresh. Prior to that appearance, Blubaugh covered 3.1 frames in a Sept. 9 relief outing in Toronto, so he should be able to provide some length in his upcoming start. He's made four appearances for Houston through the first few weeks of September, firing eight scoreless innings while striking out nine and walking three.

Fisher (7-0) pitched two scoreless innings, allowing one hit and no walks, to pick up the win in Monday's 2-1 extra-innings contest against the Rays. He struck out four.

Fisher worked a scoreless 10th and then returned with a one-run lead in the 11th to slam the door on the win. The Toronto righty has been dynamic out of the bullpen this season, producing a 2.78 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 60:16 K:BB over 45.1 total frames. Despite being in a middle-relief role, Fisher is an intriguing fantasy option down the stretch for those looking to protect pitching ratios.

Hanifee was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

Hanifee will retreat to the minors after spending the last month with Detroit. During that time, he posted a 2.35 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with five strikeouts over 7.2 frames. Brant Hurter was recalled in a corresponding move.

Hurter was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

Hurter missed time at the end of August due to a back injury, but he's since returned to health and will now get a chance to help the major-league team down the stretch of the regular season. He's performed well in his last 10 appearances for Detroit, posting a 1.20 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 16 strikeouts over 15.0 innings.

Coulombe (shoulder) may be activated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News

Coulombe has been sidelined since Aug. 26 while dealing with left shoulder fatigue, but he now appears to be on the cusp of a return to the major-league roster. The 35-year-old has made two appearances with Double-A Frisco while on a minor-league rehab assignment, tossing two scoreless innings. Coulombe owns a 2.52 ERA and 1.12 WHIP over 39.1 innings in 51 appearances between the Twins and Rangers this season, but he's struggled to a 7.56 ERA over 8.1 frames with Texas since joining the team at the trade deadline.

Rays manager Kevin Cash said Monday that Bigge (lat/face) will not return this season but is slated to pitch in winter ball, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Bigge initially went on the 15-day injured list back in early May with a right lat strain, but he then suffered multiple facial fractures in late June when he was struck by a ball in the dugout, an incident which eventually led to him being transferred to the 60-day IL. The righty has resumed mound work and will pitch in winter ball to make up for lost time.

Englert (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Englert landed on the 15-day injured list earlier this month with a right shoulder impingement, but he would appear to have a shot to make it back before the end of the season. The righty has pitched well for the Rays when healthy, collecting a 3.83 ERA and 44:11 K:BB over 44.2 innings.

Sandlin (elbow) threw a bullpen session over the weekend and will throw another one later this week, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Sandlin has been sidelined since before the All-Star break with right shoulder inflammation and encountered multiple setbacks, but he's not giving up hope on a late-season return. The righty has posted a 2.20 ERA and 16:8 K:BB over 16.1 frames this season out of the Blue Jays' bullpen.

Taylor (groin) threw a 20-pitch bullpen session Monday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Taylor had to be removed from an outing last Wednesday due to a right groin strain and hasn't made an appearance since. The White Sox will see how the reliever rebounds Tuesday before determining when he might be available to pitch again.
