    Giants' Camilo Doval: Secures save in comeback win

    Doval picked up his 10th save in Tuesday's 6-5 victory over the Rockies. He allowed two hits and one walk with no strikeouts over a scoreless inning.

    Doval had a shaky outing but managed to close out the Rockies after the Giants took a one-run lead in the top of the ninth inning. Since surrendering two runs and blowing a save against the Padres on June 5, the right-hander has turned in four straight scoreless appearances, including three saves. While control has occasionally been an issue, the flamethrower has been outstanding overall in 2025, pitching to a 1.45 ERA and 1.00 WHIP across 31 innings.

  • Zach Agnos P | COL

    Rockies' Zach Agnos: Shelled in Tuesday's loss

    Agnos (0-3) took the loss in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Giants. He allowed four runs on one hit and three walks with no strikeouts over one-third of an inning.

    Agnos entered the ninth inning with a four-run lead but quickly ran into trouble, surrendering a solo homer to Casey Schmitt and then walking the bases loaded with one out. He was then replaced by Victor Vodnik, who allowed all three inherited runners to score. Agnos entered Tuesday with a 2.70 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, but those marks ballooned to 4.43 and 1.23, respectively, over 20.1 innings this season following the disastrous outing.

  • Victor Vodnik RP | COL

    Rockies' Victor Vodnik: Blows save Tuesday

    Vodnik blew the save Tuesday against the Giants. He allowed three inherited runs on two hits over two-thirds of an inning.

    The right-hander was charged with a blown save, though he put in a tough position after Zach Agnos' disastrous one-third of an inning. Entering with the bases loaded, Vodnik allowed all three inherited runners to score on a sacrifice fly and two singles. The 25-year-old has delivered a strong 2025 campaign despite a stint on the shelf with a shoulder injury, recording a 2.25 ERA and 1.12 WHIP across 16 innings.

  • Bryce Jarvis RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Bryce Jarvis: Grabs three-inning save

    Jarvis allowed a run on three hits and two walks while striking out two over three innings to earn the save in Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Mariners.

    Jarvis' first big-league save was of the three-inning variety, and this shouldn't be an indication that he'll get a chance to close any time soon, even with Justin Martinez (elbow) and A.J. Puk (elbow) both on the injured list. This was Jarvis' first major-league appearance since April 18. He struggled as a starter at Triple-A Reno prior to his recall Tuesday, posting a 5.17 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 29:17 K:BB across 31.1 innings for the minor-league affiliate. Jarvis figures to operate as a multi-inning reliever moving forward, though his 6.10 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB across 10.1 innings in the majors this season offer little reason for confidence.

  • Matt Sauer RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Matt Sauer: Lit up in bulk-relief outing

    Sauer (1-1) allowed nine runs on 13 hits and three walks while striking out six over 4.2 innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Padres.

    Sauer was terrible, but he was able to absorb some innings for a pitching staff that was lacking in fresh arms. This performance could make Sauer's current stay with the big club a short one, especially after he needed 111 pitches (69 strikes) Tuesday. His ERA spiked up to 5.68 with a 1.38 WHIP and 19:6 K:BB across 25.1 innings over eight appearances (one start) at the big-league level.

  • Kyle Finnegan RP | DET

    Nationals' Kyle Finnegan: Saddled with blown save

    Finnegan was charged with a blown save during Tuesday's extra-inning loss to the Mets, allowing no runs on one hit with one strikeout over 1.1 innings.

    Finnegan stepped into the contest in the bottom of the eighth with a one-run lead, two outs and an inherited runner on second base. The 33-year-old closer surrendered a hit to Pete Alonso that plated the runner on second, but Alonso was thrown out attempting to stretch the hit out into a double. Still, the hit tied the game and resulted in Finnegan's fourth blown save of the campaign. In his last 10 appearances, Finnegan has allowed four runs (two earned) on 10 hits and a 6:1 K:BB across 10 innings. He's converted seven of his nine save chances during that stretch.

  • Trevor Megill RP | MIL

    Brewers' Trevor Megill: Rights ship with 13th save

    Megill picked up the save in Tuesday's 4-1 win over Atlanta, throwing a clean ninth inning with two strikeouts.

    After giving up two runs in a blown save Saturday against the Padres, Megill righted the ship Tuesday for his 13th save of the campaign. The hard-throwing right-hander has still been excellent for the most part over his last 17.2 innings, posting a 2.04 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 16:8 K:BB over that span as Milwaukee's clear-cut closer.

  • Cristian Mena SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Cristian Mena: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Diamondbacks transferred Mena (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Mena landed on the injured list Saturday due to a teres major strain in his right shoulder. Now that he's on the 60-day IL, he won't be eligible to return to the D-backs' bullpen until early August. His spot on the 40-man roster will be given to Tayler Scott, who was selected from Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move.

  • Diamondbacks' Christian Montes De Oca: Placed on injured list

    The Diamondbacks placed Montes De Oca on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right elbow inflammation.

    Montes De Oca reported discomfort in his elbow after Monday's contest, and an MRI revealed inflammation Tuesday. He'll remain on the shelf for at least the next 15 days as a result, and with Jeff Brigham and Justin Martinez (elbow) also leaving the active roster, the D-backs will bring in Kevin Ginkel, Bryce Jarvis and Tayler Scott as bullpen reinforcements.

  • Jeff Brigham RP | CHC

    Diamondbacks' Jeff Brigham: Officially demoted

    The Diamondbacks optioned Brigham to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

    Brigham's demotion comes after he surrendered three runs without recording an out during Monday's win over Seattle. With Justin Martinez (elbow) and Christian Montes De Oca (elbow) moving to the IL, the D-backs will call up Kevin Ginkel, Bryce Jarvis and Tayler Scott to reinforce their bullpen.
