    Giants' Jason Foley: Shaky in first rehab appearance

    Foley (shoulder) was charged with four runs (one earned) over two-thirds of an inning in his first rehab appearance with Single-A San Jose on Sunday.

    It's the first game appearance for Foley since he underwent right shoulder surgery last May. He is eligible for activation from the 60-day injured list in late May, but the Giants could ask Foley to spend additional time on his rehab assignment, depending on how he's faring. Foley served as the Tigers' primary closer during the 2024 regular season, and the Giants have an unsettled ninth-inning situation. That makes him worth tracking, but the 30-year-old will first have to prove he's worthy of high-leverage spots again.

  • Erik Miller RP | SF

    Giants' Erik Miller: Begins rehab assignment

    Miller (back) yielded one hit and struck out one over a scoreless frame in his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

    MIller was cleared to pitch in a rehab game less than a week after landing on the 15-day injured list with a lower-back strain, putting him on pace to return Saturday when first eligible. Before getting injured, Miller was receiving some save chances as part of an unsettled Giants bullpen.

  • Kenley Jansen RP | DET

    Tigers' Kenley Jansen: Secures seventh save

    Jansen picked up the save in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Royals. He allowed no hits or walks while striking out two over a perfect inning.

    Jansen entered with a three-run cushion and made quick work of the Royals, retiring the side in order to secure his seventh save of the season. Sunday marked the 38-year-old's first save since April 22, his first multi-strikeout outing since March 27 and just his second appearance of May. Overall, the right-hander has been up and down in 2026, posting a 4.82 ERA and 1.39 WHIP with a 12:5 K:BB across 9.1 innings.

  • Tigers' Enmanuel De Jesus: Earns win in relief Sunday

    De Jesus (2-0) earned the win Sunday against the Royals. He allowed no hits or walks while striking out one over 2.1 perfect innings.

    De Jesus was the fourth arm called upon in the Tigers' bullpen game and retired all seven batters he faced en route to earning the win. The southpaw's overall numbers -- a 6.43 ERA, 1.93 WHIP and 15:8 K:BB across 14 innings -- remain rough, though he has now turned in back-to-back scoreless outings. Much of the damage to his season line came during a disastrous appearance against the Brewers on April 21, when the 29-year-old allowed seven runs (five earned) across 1.1 innings.

  • Zach Pop RP | PHI

    Phillies' Zach Pop: Rehab assignment begins

    Pop (calf) began a rehab assignment Saturday, throwing a clean inning for Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

    Pop has been sidelined by a strained right calf since mid-April, but he's gearing up for his return to the Phillies. The right-hander will presumably need a handful of rehab outings before Philadelphia considers reinstating him from the injured list. Over 7.1 innings on the year, Pop has a 3.68 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 6:3 K:BB while working mostly in middle relief.

  • Riley O'Brien RP | STL

    Cardinals' Riley O'Brien: Blows third save

    O'Brien blew the save in Sunday's 3-2 loss to San Diego. He allowed two runs on two hits and no walks while striking out three over one inning.

    O'Brien had his club one strike away from securing a series win in San Diego before Nick Castellanos launched a game-tying two-run homer on the ninth pitch of the at-bat in the bottom of the ninth inning. Sunday marked the hard-throwing right-hander's third blown save of the campaign, snapping a streak of four consecutive saves. Despite the stumble, O'Brien has been effective in the closer role in 2026, posting a 2.84 ERA and 0.95 WHIP with 11 saves and a stellar 23:1 K:BB across 19 innings.

  • Jacob Latz RP | TEX

    Rangers' Jacob Latz: Locks down six-out save

    Latz secured the save Sunday against the Cubs, throwing two clean innings. He struck out one.

    Latz continues to cement himself as the favorite for saves with the Rangers. The 30-year-old left-hander has successfully converted all four of his save opportunities in 2026, also turning in nine consecutive scoreless outings. Overall, Latz owns a tidy 0.87 ERA, 0.44 WHIP and 17:4 K:BB over 20.2 innings so far.

  • Kyle Leahy SP | STL

    Cardinals' Kyle Leahy: Tosses five scoreless frames

    Leahy did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two hits and four walks over five scoreless innings against the Padres. He struck out five.

    Leahy's control wasn't stellar, as he issued a season-high four walks, but the Padres struggled to string together hits while the right-hander turned in his first scoreless outing of the season. After factoring into the decision in each of his first seven starts (4-3), Sunday marked the 28-year-old's first no-decision of the campaign. He'll carry a 4.31 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 32:17 K:BB across 39.2 innings into his next start, tentatively scheduled for Saturday against the Royals.

  • White Sox's Seranthony Dominguez: Survives for ninth save

    Dominguez secured the save Sunday against the Mariners, allowing no runs on one hit and two walks in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

    Dominguez made things interesting Sunday, loading the bases and putting the possible go-ahead run in scoring position, but he held on with a game-ending groundout. The right-hander has been solid as Chicago's closer, posting a 3.45 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB over 15.2 innings while converting nine of his 11 save opportunities. Dominguez has secured six consecutive save chances as well.

  • Justin Slaten RP | BOS

    Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Fires scoreless frame

    Slaten struck out one over a scoreless inning in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Rays.

    Slaten made his first appearance since being activated off the injured list Saturday. The right-hander had dealt with an oblique injury that kept him sidelined since April 4. Slaten is likely to fill a spot at the back end of Boston's bullpen.
