Mlodzinski improved to 3-7 and struck out five without allowing a baserunner across two scoreless innings of relief in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Rockies.

Mlodzinski had made a four-inning start in his last appearance Sunday against the Cubs, but he's since shifted back to the bullpen after the Pirates recalled Johan Oviedo from Triple-A Indianapolis and added him to the rotation earlier this week. The right-hander entered Saturday's game in the fifth inning after starter Mike Burrows was pulled in an apparent attempt to limit his workload. Mlodzinski was excellent in his two innings, generating 14 called or swinging strikes on 35 total pitches. He has allowed only three earned runs across six appearances and 14.2 innings since the start of August, while also maintaining an 18:3 K:BB.

Harris walked one but didn't allow a hit or a run over two-thirds of an inning to earn the save in Saturday's 2-1 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

Harris' walk loaded the bases with two outs, but he got Randy Arozarena to ground out, ending the threat and preserving the Athletics' lead. This was Harris' second save of the week, and he's on an eight-inning scoreless streak since he was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 9. On the year, he's had mixed results with a 3.65 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 52:27 K:BB over 49.1 innings across 36 relief appearances. He's added two saves and a hold, as he appears to be in the mix for saves following the deadline departure of Mason Miller.

Mederos (0-2) allowed six runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over four innings to take the loss versus the Cubs on Saturday.

While Mederos didn't give up an excessive number of baserunners, he paid severely for his few mistakes. Kyle Tucker took him deep for a two-run home run in the third inning, and Reese McGuire added a grand slam in the fourth. Mederos has now given up four homers over 13 innings across his last three starts. He's posted a 7.41 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 14:12 K:BB through 17 innings in the majors this season.

Beeks served as the opener in Saturday's win over the Reds, striking out one in a perfect first inning.

The left-hander tossed 16 pitches to retire the side in order before handing the ball off to Nabil Crismatt, who worked the bulk of the innings. Beeks lowered his ERA to 3.99 with the outing and has now allowed just two runs across his last 11 appearances (11.2 innings).

Morejon struck out two over 1.1 perfect innings to earn the save in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Dodgers.

Morejon got the last out in the top of the eighth inning and remained in the game for the ninth after the Padres padded their lead. Both Robert Suarez and Mason Miller pitched Thursday and Friday, so Morejon likely would have been in contention for a more conventional save opportunity anyway. He's on a 10-inning scoreless streak with a 10:2 K:BB in that span. For the season, Morejon has maintained a stellar 1.81 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 60:12 K:BB over 59.2 innings while adding three saves, 18 holds, three blown saves and a 9-4 record as one of the Padres' top relievers.

Abreu earned the save in Saturday's 9-8 win over the Orioles, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

Abreu was called on to protect a one-run lead in the ninth and needed just nine pitches to notch his second save in as many days. The 28-year-old has now thrown 10 consecutive scoreless outings to start August, posting a 13:3 K:BB during that stretch. For the season, he owns a 1.52 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 89:25 K:BB across 59.1 innings while converting all three of his save chances since Josh Hader (shoulder) went on the injured list.

Hoffman was charged with his sixth blown save of the season Saturday, giving up one run on one hit and one walk in the ninth as the Blue Jays downed the Marlins 7-6 in 12 innings. He struck out one.

Called upon to protect a 4-3 lead, Hoffman issued a leadoff walk to Eric Wagaman, setting Javier Sanoja up to tie the game with a one-out single. It's the first run Hoffman has allowed in August, but he's blown two of five save chances on the month despite a 1.04 ERA in 8.2 innings thanks to a 12:7 K:BB. He remains two saves shy of his first career 30-save campaign.

Vest retired all four batters he faced to earn the save in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Royals. He recorded two strikeouts.

Vest was summoned with a runner on third in the eighth inning and struck out Maikel Garcia before working a clean ninth. The 30-year-old has held opponents scoreless in eight of 10 August outings and now sports a 2.67 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 64:16 K:BB across 57.1 frames while converting 19 of 24 save chances. He continues to split closing duties with Kyle Finnegan, who was likely unavailable after throwing two innings Friday.

Martin (calf) left Saturday's live batting practice session early and will not be reinstated from the injured list anytime soon, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Martin seemingly sustained a setback Saturday in his recovery from a left calf strain. The reliever has been on the shelf since July 26 and was initially given a 4-to-6-week timeline for return. However, the 39-year-old will likely need more than six weeks and shouldn't be expected back until mid-September, at the earliest.

The Cubs recalled Wicks from Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Wicks served as the 27th man in Wednesday's doubleheader before being returned to Iowa. Just a couple of days later, he'll join the 26-man roster in place of Javier Assad. Wicks should work out of the bullpen, a role in which he's struggled during 2025 while compiling a 9.72 ERA across 8.1 innings with Chicago.
