Uceta (0-2) allowed three runs (zero earned) on four hits while striking out four across three innings, taking the loss to the Marlins on Sunday.

Uceta allowed a three-run home run to Adam Duvall in the fifth inning, which was enough for the Marlins to secure the win. However, none of the runs were earned due to a fielding error by Sheldon Neuse to lead off the inning. Uceta has a 2.45 ERA in 7.1 innings. Barring injuries, he isn't in line to receive many high-leverage innings for the Dodgers this year.

Nelson pitched 1.2 innings, allowing no runs on one hit and two walks while striking out three Sunday against the Marlins. He did not factor into the decision.

In his first start as a Dodger, Nelson served as the opener and delivered 1.2 scoreless innings. He struck out three of the five batters he faced. The 32-year-old has a 2.70 ERA and 1.32 WHIP in 16.2 innings. He hasn't allowed a home run this season and boasts a 13.5 K/9.

Garcia earned the save Sunday against the Dodgers, pitching a scoreless ninth inning on one hit while striking out one.

Garcia protected a one-run lead in the ninth inning, getting Mookie Betts to ground out to end the game. The 30-year-old has done very well since taking over the closing role for the Marlins, converting seven of eight save opportunities. He holds a 1.65 ERA and 0.92 WHIP in 16.1 innings. All three runs off Garcia have been via home runs.

Antone allowed two hits and struck out none over one scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 7-6 win over Colorado.

He allowed a leadoff double to Connor Joe and a single to Ryan McMahon, but Garrett Hampson grounded into a double play to end the threat. The save was Antone's second of the season. He's also notched two blown saves, three holds and a win in 13 outings. The 27-year-old has a 2.08 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 29:9 K:BB across 21.2 innings in a fairly versatile role.

Hoffman allowed five runs (two earned) on five hits and three walks with five strikeouts in four innings versus Colorado on Sunday. He did not factor in the decision.

The 28-year-old got through three innings with little trouble, but Colorado struck for five runs in the fourth. Hoffman didn't help his cause much, as his throwing error led to a run. The right-hander has gone five starts without a win, and he's failed to reach the fifth inning in his last four outings. He has a 4.67 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 32:18 K:BB across 34.2 innings. He lines up to face Milwaukee in next weekend's series.

Hader allowed a run on two hits and a walk in one inning Sunday, striking out two and earning a save over Atlanta.

Hader gave up a walk and a single to put runners on the corners with one out in the ninth. After a sacrifice fly by Dansby Swanson, he allowed a two-out hit before punching out William Contreras to avoid blowing the save. Hader is still perfect through nine save opportunities despite allowing a run for the first time this month. He's sporting a stellar 1.15 ERA and 28:7 K:BB through 15.2 innings

Gilbreath was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

The 25-year-old was demoted to Triple-A on Saturday, but he'll quickly rejoin the Rockies with Ben Bowden (shoulder) landing on the injured list. Gilbreath has surrendered six runs on eight hits with five strikeouts and two walks over 5.1 innings.

Nance had his contract selected by the Cubs on Sunday.

The 30-year-old will join the Cubs in hopes of making his major-league debut. Nance had a solid start to the season at Triple-A Iowa with one run allowed over six innings.

Doval allowed two runs on two hits, a walk and a hit-by-pitch with one strikeout in one-third of an inning in Saturday's loss to Pittsburgh. He was charged with a blown save.

The right-hander entered the seventh inning with two outs on the board, but he quickly lost control. He allowed two inherited runners to score and then surrendered a game-tying two-run double to Jacob Stallings. Doval has plenty of power in his arm, but the control isn't there yet. The 23-year-old has an 8.38 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB across 9.2 innings. He's taken three blown saves and added five holds in 12 outings.

Sims (3-1) gave up two runs (one earned) in the 11th inning of Saturday's win against the Rockies but got the win when the Reds scored two more runs in the 12th inning.

This wasn't a save chance for Sims, as it was his second inning in the game, but the outing essentially functioned as a blown save with Sims trying to protect a lead. Sims gave up three walks in his two innings, and one of those came around to score along with the ghost runner on a double by Josh Fuentes. Sims at least stabilized after that to keep the game tied, allowing the Reds to rally one more time.
