Suarez earned a save against the Twins on Monday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk over one inning.

Suarez wasn't exactly sharp in the outing, but he had a three-run lead to work with and performed well enough to pick up the save. The right-hander threw just 12 of 22 pitches for strikes and allowed a run for the third time over his past five appearances, though he's gone 4-for-4 on save opportunities during that span. Despite the moderately bumpy stretch, Suarez still has an outstanding 1.82 ERA and 0.91 WHIP on the season, and he ranks fifth in the majors with 28 saves.

Phillips struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Monday's 3-0 win over the Mariners.

It was far from a nervy outing, as Phillips threw nine of 13 pitches for strikes to earn his first save since July 23. All three of Phillips, Daniel Hudson and Michael Kopech had pitched Sunday, so it's noteworthy Phillips got the save chance here against the top of the Mariners' order. For the season, he has 16 saves in 18 opportunities along with a 3.40 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 47:12 K:BB through 39.2 innings. The Dodgers' have a bevy of high-leverage options, so don't expect Phillips to be a full-time closer even if he gets more looks going forward than he did over the last month.

Oller (0-1) took the loss Monday against Arizona, allowing five runs on three hits and four walks across 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

Two of Oller's three hits allowed found the bleachers, with Adrian Del Castillo launching a grand slam in the third inning after Oller walked the bases loaded, and Joc Pederson hitting a solo homer in the fifth frame. While the 29-year-old's first MLB start of the year didn't inspire much confidence, the Marlins rotation is plagued by injuries, which could result in Oller getting another chance. Oller logged a 2.88 ERA across 25.0 innings with Triple-A Jacksonville before being recalled.

Diaz (4-1) picked up the win Monday against Baltimore, striking out one during a perfect ninth inning.

Diaz took the mound to start the ninth inning with the game tied 3-3 and fired a perfect frame before the Mets walked it off. The 30-year-old has logged a strikeout in 13 consecutive appearances, allowing two runs on five hits during that stretch. Diaz is 14-for-19 in save opportunities, logging a 3.50 ERA in 36 innings, which stands as his worst ERA since 2019.

Ortiz (5-4) took the loss Monday against Texas, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk over six innings. He struck out seven.

The Pirates right-hander pitched relatively well, allowing six or fewer baserunners for his third straight outing, but could not contain Corey Seager. Ortiz yielded two homers to Seager, accounting for all four runs allowed. The 25-year-old has had great difficult in keeping the ball in the yard lately, allowing nine home runs over his last five appearances. During that time, he's pitched to a 6.26 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 19:10 K:BB across 27.1 innings. Ortiz is currently scheduled to make his next start against the Reds at home this weekend.

The Giants activated Small (oblique) from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.

Small was shut down in March due to a right oblique strain and was subsequently placed on the IL. He's since completed a rehab assignment at Triple-A and will remain in Sacramento following Friday's transaction.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Kopech is "gassed" and will be held out from pitching for a few days, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

During Kopech's successful save against St. Louis on Sunday, he averaged 96.7 miles per hour on his 10 fastballs, two ticks below his season average of 98.7 mph. Roberts acknowledged after the contest that he has deployed the righty reliever more often than the White Sox did prior to the deal between the two teams at the trade deadline and suggested that Kopech isn't physically injured but will be held out a few games for rest purposes. Kopech pitched three times in four days from Thursday to Sunday, though he was relatively efficient with a total of 40 pitches during that span. If he is indeed uninjured, Kopech will likely be back to working in high leverage for the Dodgers before the end of the week and should continue to see frequent chances in a closing role. He's notched a save in both of his past two appearances and has posted 9.1 scoreless innings with a 13:1 K:BB and just one hit allowed over nine appearances since joining Los Angeles.

The Pirates recalled Stratton from Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Stratton was sent down to Triple-A on Aug. 9, but he returns to the 26-man roster Monday at the expense of Ryder Ryan, who was designated for assignment. After a rough start to the 2024 season, Stratton hadn't allowed a run in 7.1 innings out of the Pittsburgh bullpen before he was placed on the IL.

The Pirates designated Ryan for assignment Monday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Ryan will lose his spot on the 40-man roster for the second time in three weeks as part of a flurry of roster moves by Pittsburgh on Monday. The 29-year-old appeared in two games during this stint in the majors, allowing three runs across 3.2 innings. He has a 5.66 ERA in 20.2 innings for Pittsburgh this season.

The Brewers optioned Peguero to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Peguero had posted a 1.38 ERA and 13:6 K:BB over his last 13 innings covering 15 appearances but nonetheless finds himself back in the minors. The Brewers have not yet announced a corresponding move, but Trevor Megill (back) returning from the injured list appears highly probable.
