Soriano (8-9) earned the win over the Dodgers on Monday, allowing two hits and issuing two walks while striking out six batters over six scoreless innings.

Soriano was very sharp Monday, limiting the Dodgers to two harmless singles and two walks. He notched his fourth quality start over his past five outings, though the one game in which he didn't accomplish that feat was a seven-run, four-inning blowup against Tampa Bay his previous time on the mound. Soriano has been prone to the occasional ugly outing this year -- he has given up five or more runs on six occasions -- but he's also racked up seven appearances of six-plus frames without allowing an earned run. Overall, he's at a 3.84 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 125:63 K:BB over 143 innings spanning 25 starts.

Anderson has been scratched from Tuesday's scheduled start against the Dodgers due to back stiffness, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Anderson is presumably headed for further testing to determine if the injury will force him to the IL. Victor Mederos will be recalled to start Tuesday's game in Anderson's place.

Falter did not factor into the decision in Monday's 7-4 victory over Washington. He allowed two runs on three hits and three walks in four innings with five strikeouts.

The 28-year-old southpaw couldn't last the five innings required for a win in this 76-pitch outing. Falter conceded a two-run homer to Josh Bell in the opening frame, as he's now coughed up nine runs across eight innings with the Royals after arriving at the trade deadline. Through 121.1 total innings with Kansas City and Pittsburgh, Falter has pitched to a 4.15 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 77:44 K:BB while yielding 19 long balls. He is currently scheduled to make his next start at home against the White Sox this weekend.

Matthews (3-4) suffered the loss Monday at the Yankees, yielding three runs on six hits and one walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out nine.

The young right-hander looked solid in this 99-pitch outing, as he dazzled with 18 whiffs, but was bitten by the long ball in Yankee Stadium. All three runs Matthews conceded came on three solo homers -- Cody Bellinger in the first and Giancarlo Stanton and Ben Rice in the third. Since rejoining the Minnesota rotation July 19, Matthews has pitched to a 5.04 ERA and 1.28 WHIP but has featured an impressive 32:3 K:BB across 25 frames. He currently lines up to make his next start at home against the Tigers this weekend.

Warren (7-5) earned the win Monday against the Twins, allowing two runs on three hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over 6.2 innings.

The New York right-hander dominated Minnesota in this 85-pitch outing, with all the damage given up coming on two solo homers -- Byron Buxton in the sixth and Trevor Larnach in the seventh. Warren managed to secure his fifth quality start of the season, as he's notched two in his last four appearances. Across 122.1 total innings, the 26-year-old now sports a 4.34 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 140:54 K:BB while conceding 14 long balls. Warren currently lines up to make his next start at St. Louis this weekend.

Means (elbow) threw two innings in a bridge game at the Guardians' training complex in Goodyear (Ariz.) on Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports. "[He] pitched really well but [he also] felt great, so that's a really good sign," Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said.

A "bridge game" is one played between the end of the rookie-level Arizona Complex League season and the start of the Arizona Fall League season. The activity marked Means' first game action since undergoing Tommy John surgery in June of 2024. Cleveland inked the left-hander this spring to a one-year deal with a team option for 2026. The possibility exists that Means could throw for the Guardians in September. He's undergoing an evaluation by the team's training staff following the outing, and if all goes well, Means could join a minor-league affiliate on a rehab assignment.

McClanahan (triceps) underwent a surgical procedure on his left arm Monday, ending any chance of him returning in 2025, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

McClanahan has been sidelined for the entirety of the 2025 campaign to this point while working his way through a lingering nerve issue in his pitching arm. The left-hander was able to pitch in three minor-league rehab starts in July before he had a flare up of biceps discomfort, forcing him to pull back on his ramp up. McClanahan hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2023, but this procedure could have him ready for spring training in 2026.

The Athletics reinstated Basso (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.

Basso began the season on the IL while recovering from a left shoulder strain, then experienced a setback in June during his rehab assignment that resulted in him being shut down from throwing for a spell. He was given the green light to restart his rehab assignment in Triple-A last week, and after making two appearances for Las Vegas, Basso will now remain with the affiliate since the Athletics didn't have an opening for him in the bullpen. The Athletics reopened a spot for Basso on the 40-man roster by transferring catcher Austin Wynns (abdomen) from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.

The Royals recalled Luinder Avila from Triple-A Omaha on Monday.

The move corresponds with the Royals placing Hunter Harvey on the 15-day injured list due to a right adductor strain. Avila has spent most of the 2025 season in Triple-A, where he has a 4.67 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 51:19 K:BB across 44.1 innings. Though he's mostly operated as a starter in the minors, Avila will likely be a part of the Royals' bullpen -- potentially as a multi-inning reliever -- following Harvey's placement on the IL. Avila's first appearance in a Royals jersey will mark the 23-year-old's major-league debut.

Rodriguez underwent a successful right elbow debridement to remove a bone spur Monday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

He's done for the remainder of the season, but Rodriguez hopes to be ready to throw off a mound early on in the offseason and report to spring training without restrictions. The right-hander has not pitched in the majors since July 2024 due to myriad arm problems.
