Suarez allowed one run on two hits over one inning to earn the save in Saturday's 10-8 win over the Rockies.

Suarez picked up his first save since Aug. 26 despite giving up a solo home run to Mickey Moniak in the ninth inning. The lack of saves has been because of the Padres' 2-7 skid over the last nine games, with the only other win in that span being a blowout. This outing ended Suarez's 6.2-inning scoreless streak, but it was just the fourth homer he's allowed over 60 innings this season. The closer has matched his career high of 36 saves while maintaining a 3.00 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 63:14 K:BB.

Scott blew the save in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Orioles, allowing two inherited runners to score on one hit without recording an out in the ninth inning.

While Blake Treinen was ultimately charged with three runs and the loss, Scott gave up a walk-off double to the only batter he faced. After looking sharp in his first two outings back from an elbow injury that sidelined him for a month, the southpaw has now blown a save or taken a loss in three straight appearances. He's converted 20 of 29 save chances this season while posting a 4.56 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 52:12 K:BB across 49.1 innings.

Robertson earned a hold Saturday against the Marlins, allowing one hit in a scoreless seventh inning.

Robertson is already up to six holds through 10.2 innings this season. The veteran right-hander has offered a stabilizing presence to the Philadelphia bullpen since his arrival, registering a 2.53 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 15:5 K:BB. If anything were to happen to closer Jhoan Duran down the stretch, Robertson has given the Phillies another capable arm with closing experience.

Strahm struck out two in a clean eighth inning for a hold Saturday against the Marlins.

Strahm tied his career high with his 18th hold of the season Saturday. The left-hander has allowed a lone earned run over his last 12 outings, and he should remain a key component of the Philadelphia bullen to close out the campaign. Through 57.1 innings, Strahm owns a 2.83 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 67:18 K:BB.

Smith earned the save in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Rays, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.

Smith was tasked with protecting a one-run lead in the ninth and retired the heart of the Rays' order on 14 pitches. Since stepping into the Guardians' closer role July 28, the 26-year-old has converted seven of 10 save chances with a 4.00 ERA across 19 outings, though he's held opponents scoreless in 14 of them. On the year, he's compiled 19 holds and 10 saves along with a 3.30 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 85:19 K:BB over 62.2 innings.

Pirates manager Don Kelly said that Chandler will start Sunday's game against Milwaukee at PNC Park, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Chandler's first three major-league outings have come in bulk relief, with each lasting exactly four innings. He posted a 2.25 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB while going 2-0 with one save in those appearances. Chandler threw 65 pitches -- his most to date as a big leaguer -- in his most recent outing Tuesday against the Dodgers, so he may not be tasked with a full starter's workload Sunday. He'll be going up against another flamethrowing rookie in Milwaukee's Jacob Misiorowski.

Henry notched a save against the Cubs on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter in a scoreless ninth inning.

Jose Ferrer had recorded each of Washington's previous five saves coming into Saturday, but he was summoned in the eighth frame to face the top of Chicago's order. That left the ninth inning for Henry, who worked around a one-out Cubs single to close out the contest. Henry has held the opponent scoreless in nine of his past 10 appearances, though he gave up three runs in his lone poor outing during that stretch. Ferrer remains the likely top option for saves in the Nationals' bullpen, but Henry appears to be next in line when Ferrer isn't available for the ninth.

Lord (5-8) earned the victory over the Cubs on Saturday, allowing one run on two hits and four walks while striking out seven batters over 5.2 innings.

Lord was crushed in his previous three outings, giving up 18 runs (17 earned) while serving up four homers over 12.2 innings during that span. He was vastly better against a tough opponent Saturday, yielding just a second-inning run and falling one out shy of a quality start. Lord did walk four batters, but he also fanned a season-high seven and racked up 12 whiffs. The right-hander is lined up to make his next start on the road against Miami.

Bednar earned a save against the Blue Jays on Saturday, striking out three batters over 1.1 scoreless innings.

Bednar was called upon in the eighth inning with two outs and a runner on first base. He threw a wild pitch but was able to fan Nathan Lukes to get out of the frame unscathed. The veteran closer then returned for the ninth and retired the side in order to close out the win for New York. This was Bednar's first save since Aug. 16, though he picked up two wins over five games in the interim. Since joining the Yankees at the trade deadline, Bednar has gone 4-for-7 in save opportunities but has posted a solid 2.87 ERA with a 25:6 K:BB across 15.2 frames spanning 13 appearances.

Pomeranz will serve as the Cubs' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Ryan Herrera of AllCHGO.com reports.

Pomeranz has turned in a 2.45 ERA and 1.14 WHIP over 40.1 innings while pitching primarily in middle relief this season, but the Cubs will deploy him as an opener for the fourth time in 2025. The 36-year-old southpaw has pitched more than one inning just three times this season, so he'll likely hand the game over to Chicago's bullpen after recording the game's first three outs. Colin Rea and Aaron Civale are both available to cover multiple innings in relief once Pomeranz exits the contest.
