Cam Schlittler SP | NYY
Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Fans six in no-decision
Schlittler didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Diamondbacks after allowing three runs (one earned) on three hits and three walks while striking out six over six innings.
Schlittler was uncharacteristically wild in this one. Even though he held Arizona hitless through four innings, his own throwing error contributed to two unearned runs on Jordan Lawlar's two-out triple in the fifth. He received a 3-2 lead in the sixth but issued consecutive walks before Corbin Carroll's sacrifice fly tied the game. The three walks were his highest output since he issued five across 5.2 innings against Boston on Aug. 28, but he still posted a quality start. Schlittler, who has had a dominant season across the board, owns a 1.94 ERA and 234:47 K:BB across 32 starts and 190.2 innings in 2026. He's expected to make his final start of the season next week at home against the Orioles.

Bryce Miller SP | SEA
Mariners' Bryce Miller: Fans six in no-decision
Miller didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Rockies after allowing an unearned run on four hits and two walks while striking out six over 5.1 innings.
Miller delivered a much-needed bounce-back performance, holding Colorado without an earned run after entering Saturday with a 6.52 ERA over 10 starts since the All-Star break. Despite the inflated ERA, Miller seems to be ending the regular season on a high note, as he's given up two or fewer earned runs in three of his past four starts. It remains to be seen if he'll make another start before the end of the regular season.

Slade Cecconi SP | CLE
Guardians' Slade Cecconi: Credited with win Saturday
Cecconi (5-7) was credited with Saturday's win over the Yankees, retiring the final six batters with two strikeouts over two scoreless innings.
Starter Tanner Bibee was pulled with two outs in the fourth inning and Cleveland leading, 11-6. Two relievers combined for 2.1 scoreless innings (and three walks) before Cecconi entered to finish the final two frames. Apparently, because the two relievers that followed Bibee were deemed to be ineffective, the official scorer gave the win to Cecconi. Since coming off the injured list earlier this month, he's operated as a multi-inning reliever and has allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 10 innings in four appearances.
-
Joe Ryan SP | MIN
Twins' Joe Ryan: Gives up two runs
Ryan allowed two runs on seven hits, a walk and two hit batsmen while striking out five over five innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Saturday.
Ryan was able to stay out of the loss column, but he's now winless in seven straight outings. This was one of his better performances in that stretch, which was interrupted for a month by a glute strain. Ryan is now at a 3.83 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 151:30 K:BB across 138.2 innings over 26 starts this season. The right-hander is tentatively projected for one more start this year, which is set to come at home versus the Rangers.

Reid Detmers SP | LAA
Angels' Reid Detmers: Worst start of second half
Detmers allowed four runs on six hits and struck out five without walking a batter over five innings in a no-decision versus the Twins on Saturday.
Prior to Saturday, Detmers hadn't given up more than three runs in any of his previous 11 starts, posting an elite 1.65 ERA and 76:11 K:BB over that span. The Twins were able to get to him a bit, as four of the six hits he allowed went for extra bases. The southpaw has been a pillar of stability on a bad team this year, pitching to career-best marks of a 3.47 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 204:46 K:BB through 179 innings over 31 starts. He is projected for one more start this season, which is expected to come in Seattle.

Noah Cameron SP | KC
Royals' Noah Cameron: Allows two homers in no-decision
Cameron did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks with six strikeouts over six innings.
Cameron threw 65 of 94 pitches for strikes with 12 whiffs but was burned by two-run homers in the second and fourth innings. It marked the first time the 27-year-old had surrendered multiple long balls since July 11, and he's now logged at least five frames in 14 straight outings. He owns a 3.92 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 155:54 K:BB across 172.1 innings this season and lines up to finish his campaign at home against the Guardians next weekend.
-
Freddy Peralta SP | TB
Rays' Freddy Peralta: Sharp in Saturday's no-decision
Peralta didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox, allowing one run on four hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out six.
The former Brewer and Met fell just short of his ninth quality start of the season, getting lifted after 97 pitches (59 strikes), and Peralta continues to turn his season around since joining the Rays and making some mechanical tweaks to his delivery. Over his last five starts, he's produced a 0.94 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB in 28.2 innings while going 4-0. Peralta is set to make his final start of the regular season on the road next weekend in Philadelphia.

Hayden Wesneski SP | HOU
Astros' Hayden Wesneski: Stumbles late in no-decision
Wesneski didn't factor into the decision Saturday against Atlanta, striking out three while allowing one run on four hits and three walks in 5.1 innings.
Wesneski kept Atlanta off the board until the sixth inning, turning in a strong start Saturday. The right-hander has been pretty reliable lately, either logging a quality start or pitching at least five innings while conceding fewer than two runs in seven of his last nine outings since the beginning of August. His final appearance of the regular season is slated to come against the Athletics in hitter-friendly Sacramento, where he'll carry a respectable 3.50 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB over 54 innings.
-
Tanner Bibee SP | CLE
Guardians' Tanner Bibee: Hit around in no-decision
Bibee did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 12-6 win against the Athletics, allowing six runs on 12 hits and no walks with two strikeouts over 4.2 innings.
Bibee was spotted a huge lead but struggled, yielding a career-high 12 hits while generating just seven whiffs on 95 pitches. It continued a rough September for the 27-year-old, who owns a bloated 8.24 ERA in four starts this month while failing to log five frames in three of them. He owns a 4.35 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 142:54 K:BB across 182 innings overall and will try to rebound in his final matchup of the regular season at Kansas City next weekend.
-
Jacob Lopez SP | ATH
Athletics' Jacob Lopez: Torched in loss
Lopez (6-5) took the loss against the Guardians on Saturday, allowing 10 runs on 10 hits and no walks with one strikeout over 2.2 innings.
Lopez was jumped for two homers and five runs in the first inning before being charged with another five runs in the third. It was the highest run total the 28-year-old has ever allowed in a single start, and he's now yielded 19 earned runs over his past three outings. He'll take an inflated 5.68 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 108:56 K:BB across 117.1 innings this season into his final matchup of the campaign at home against the Astros next weekend.
