Gordon allowed five runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Sunday.

Gordon served up four home runs, which accounted for all of the runs on his line. The right-hander has given up 10 runs over 10 innings since returning from a hip inpingement. He's posted an 11:2 K:BB in that span, and both starts have come at Coors Field, which likely explains some of his struggles. Overall, Gordon has a 6.95 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 46:10 K:BB through 45.1 innings over 11 games (four starts). He's tentatively projected to make his next start in a road rematch versus the Giants.

Webb allowed a hit and a walk across two scoreless innings of relief to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Cardinals. He struck out one.

Webb worked the eighth and ninth innings on 27 pitches to record his third save of the season. The righty has earned two of those saves in the last seven games, which corresponds roughly with when Daniel Palencia (elbow) hit the injured list. Webb should continue to be Chicago's top option for saves at the moment, but his fantasy value will take a hit sometime after the All-Star break when Palencia is able to return and slide back into the closer role.

Assad took a no-decision Sunday against the Cardinals, allowing no runs on two hits and two walks in 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

Assad kept the St. Louis bats in check Sunday, scattering two singles over 4.2 shutout innings, and he notably escaped a bases-loaded jam in the second frame. The 28-year-old right-hander has been much more impactful as a starter versus a reliever, posting a 3.65 ERA and 1.05 WHIP across 37 innings from the rotation as opposed to a 5.12 ERA and 1.19 WHIP over 19.1 frames out of the bullpen. It's unknown how Assad will next be deployed, as it's possible Jameson Taillon (hamstring) will be ready to take his next turn in the rotation.

Atlanta outrighted Hamilton to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday, Barrett Sallee of 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

Hamilton will stick around in the organization as bullpen depth at the Triple-A level after going unclaimed off waivers over the weekend. Before Atlanta dropped him from its 40-man roster Friday, Hamilton made four appearances out of the big-league bullpen and gave up four earned runs on six hits and three walks across 4.2 innings.

The Dodgers announced Thursday that Treinen (elbow) has resumed playing catch, per MLB.com.

Treinen is working his way through a throwing program after landing on the injured list June 20 due to right elbow inflammation, but the Dodgers aren't counting on him to return until after the All-Star break. Once he's activated, Treinen will likely handle a middle-innings or setup role out of the Los Angeles bullpen.

The Nationals optioned Yean to Triple-A Rochester following Sunday's 11-5 loss to the Pirates.

Yean was recalled from Triple-A prior to Sunday's game. He was brought in for the third inning and looked good in his major-league debut, allowing one walk and zero hits while striking out three across two scoreless frames. Yean will head back to Rochester but could return to the majors when the Nationals need more right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

The Twins acquired Go from the Tigers on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Go opened the season in Double-A Erie before being promoted to Triple-A Toledo in early May. Across 19 outings at Triple-A, he has posted a 2.60 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, two saves and a 32:11 K:BB across 27.2 innings. The 27-year-old righty has yet to make his MLB debut, but he should get the chance to do so soon; Dan Hayes of The Athletic relays that Go will be added to the 40-man roster and formally added to the 26-man active roster Tuesday.

Williams picked up the save in Sunday's 10-9 win over Atlanta, allowing a run on three hits in two-thirds of an inning. He struck out two.

It looked like Williams would get the day off, as the Mets entered the ninth inning ahead 10-3. However, after Huascar Brazoban gave up five runs, Williams was called upon to put out the fire. It didn't come easy for Williams either, as he gave up a run before Atlanta loaded the bases with two outs. However, he rebounded to strike out Dominic Smith to close out a one-run victory, notching his 13th save this season. Prior to Sunday, Williams had allowed just one run in his previous 11.1 innings, logging five saves in that span. Overall, his ERA sits at 4.34 through 29 innings this year with a 1.55 WHIP and 43:16 K:BB.

The Angels recalled Saucedo from Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday.

Sam Aldegheri was optioned to Salt Lake in a corresponding move. Saucedo has spent the vast majority of the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he's produced a 6.75 ERA and 1.79 WHIP across 30.2 innings. He'll likely fill a low-leverage role out of the Angels bullpen.

The Brewers recalled Rom from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The left-hander was optioned to Nashville on June 22 but is back in the majors since Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) is headed to the injured list. Rom gave up just two earned runs and struck out 10 across his 5.1 frames with the Brewers, though he also allowed six hits and four walks.
