  • Luis Peralta RP | COL

    Rockies' Luis Peralta: Optioned to Triple-A

    Peralta was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

    Peralta will head to Triple-A after the Rockies split Sunday's doubleheader with the Nationals. The left-hander did not appear in either contest, and he'll drop down a level after posting a 7.56 ERA and 2.16 WHIP with five strikeouts over 8.1 innings in nine appearances out of Colorado's bullpen so far this year. Right-hander Jaden Hill, who was called up for Sunday's doubleheader, will remain on the 26-man roster in Peralta's place.

  • Brad Lord P | WAS

    Nationals' Brad Lord: Fans five in loss

    Lord (0-2) yielded two runs on five hits and two walks over four innings in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against Colorado. He struck out five and took the loss.

    Lord turned in three scoreless frames before Mickey Moniak knocked a two-run triple in the fourth inning. It was Lord's second straight start of at least four innings, but he's yet to complete at least five in an outing. He threw 46 of 65 pitches for strikes Sunday and forced 13 whiffs, including eight with his fastball. Lord owns a 4.73 ERA with a 10:9 K:BB through 13.1 frames this season. He's currently projected for a home start against the Mets next weekend.

  • Tyler Kinley RP | ATL

    Rockies' Tyler Kinley: Notches first save

    Kinley allowed a hit and struck out three batters in a scoreless inning during Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Nationals. He earned a save in the win.

    Kinley coughed up a leadoff single to Dylan Crews before striking out the next three batters to close out the 3-1 victory. It was Kinley's first save of the year. He's thrown eight consecutive scoreless frames after coughing up two runs in each of his first two appearances of the season. Seth Halvorsen pitched 1.1 innings during Game 1 of the doubleheader.

  • Kyle Finnegan RP | DET

    Nationals' Kyle Finnegan: Earns save Sunday

    Finnegan issued a walk in a scoreless inning during Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against Colorado. He struck out one and earned a save.

    Finnegan threw just seven of 15 pitches for strikes but held on to the 3-2 lead for his eighth save of the year. He's converted a save in each of his last eight appearances and has not blown a chance this season. Finnegan owns a strong 1.86 ERA with a 12:6 K:BB through 9.2 innings.

  • Tanner Scott RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tanner Scott: Completes shutout of Texas

    Scott allowed one hit in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rangers.

    Scott put away the Rangers for his second save of the series and finished off a five-inning scoreless relief effort by the Dodgers bullpen. He's now worked seven straight scoreless innings and is tied for second in baseball with eight saves.

  • Shelby Miller RP | CHC

    Diamondbacks' Shelby Miller: Blows save, earns win

    Miller (2-0) yielded one unearned run on one hit over two innings and picked up a win during Sunday's extra-innings contest against the Cubs. He struck out two batters and was charged with a blown save.

    Miller tossed a perfect ninth inning to push the game to extras but allowed the ghost runner to score on a Nico Hoerner single in the 10th. Arizona took the lead back in the 11th inning, paving the way for Miller to earn his second win. He's now tossed 10 innings without allowing an earned run this season but has not recorded a save.

  • Drey Jameson RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Drey Jameson: Picks up first save

    Jameson earned a save with a scoreless inning during Sunday's extra-innings win over the Cubs.

    Jameson was promoted from Triple-A Reno on Saturday and secured a save in his season debut with the Diamondbacks. It was his first MLB appearance since July 6, 2023 after missing the entire 2024 campaign while recovering from Tommy John surgery. Jameson likely won't see many save opportunities out of Arizona's bullpen, but with A.J. Puk (elbow) and Kevin Ginkel (shoulder) both currently on the shelf, the right-hander could work his way into a high-leverage role.

  • Jose Suarez SP | ATL

    Braves' Jose Suarez: Dropped from 40-man roster

    Suarez was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Sunday.

    Suarez will now be placed on waivers by Atlanta after producing a 2.45 ERA and 1.36 WHIP with five strikeouts over 7.1 innings in three appearances out of the bullpen. If he clears waivers, he'll either be outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett or released by the team, or he could elect free agency. The transaction makes room for Scott Blewett on Atlanta's 40-man roster after the team traded to get Blewett from the Orioles on Sunday.

  • Scott Blewett RP | STL

    Braves' Scott Blewett: Dealt to Atlanta

    The Orioles traded Blewett to Atlanta in exchange for cash considerations Sunday.

    Blewett was designated for assignment by Baltimore on Saturday, and he'll now look to carve out a role with Atlanta. The right-hander has appeared in four games with the Twins and Orioles in 2025, giving up one run on nine hits and a walk while striking out 11 batters over nine innings. Blewett is out of minor-league options, so he'll report directly to Atlanta's 26-man roster.

  • Jordan Wicks SP | CHC

    Cubs' Jordan Wicks: Takes loss Sunday

    Wicks (0-1) allowed two unearned runs on three hits across two innings of work to take the loss Sunday against the Diamondbacks. He struck out two.

    Wicks worked the 10th and 11th innings in an eventual 3-2 defeat, and he allowed an unearned run in each inning to ultimately take his first loss of the season. The lefty was just recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Friday, and he's now allowed five runs (three earned) across two appearances. Wicks figures to work as a low-leverage arm for the Cubs until further notice.
