Matz (shoulder) likely won't appear in any games this week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Mere days after the Mets thought that Matz could return to the rotation, the left-hander now seems to be unable to appear for the rest of the regular season. Manager Terry Collins also said that Matz will likely not start any games in the postseason, and even an appearance out of the bullpen during the playoffs is still up in the air. If your league only runs during the regular season, it's safe to say that the 25-year-old is done contributing for you in 2016.

Solis (shoulder) was activated from the disabled list Monday, CSN's Chase Hughes reports.

Solis is set to rejoin the Nationals' bullpen after missing over a month with his shoulder injury. He did not allow a run in 27 of the 34 games he appeared in this season, so Solis has a shot to make the Nationals' postseason roster if he proves he's healthy.

Cueto will test his strained left groin muscle in a throwing session Tuesday and could start Thursday against Colorado, Chris Haft of Big News Network reports. "As soon as we can get him out there, he'll be out there," said manager Bruce Bochy.

Cueto suffered a strained groin muscle in his last start Tuesday and missed Sunday's scheduled start. It sounds like he'll make one more start at some point the final week if healthy.

Finnegan fired five shutout innings against the Brewers on Sunday, allowing just three hits while striking out four with no walks en route to his 10th win of the season.

Finnegan was superb Sunday, throwing 11 of 17 first-pitch strikes and pounding the zone at an impressive 72 percent clip, but he was removed after just 54 pitches as the Reds continue to monitor his workload. While he hasn't really shown signs of wearing down despite throwing a career-high 172 innings this season, Finnegan will likely be on a similarly tight leash in his last start of the season Friday versus the Cubs.

Glasnow allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits and a walk while striking out five across three innings in Sunday's start versus the Nationals.

Glasnow allowed three runs in the first inning -- thanks in part to an error by Josh Bell -- and was removed after allowing another run in the third. By that point, he'd already thrown 67 pitches. The rookie had only allowed two runs in seven innings since returning from a long stint on the disabled list, but he was unable to match that form Sunday even though Washington rested a majority of its regulars. Glasnow, who still hasn't consistently matched the velocity he showed in the minors, is slated to make his final start of the regular season Friday on the road versus the Cardinals.

Thompson has been shut down for the remainder of the season, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.

Thompson allowed three runs on five hits over four innings in his final start of the season Sunday against the Mets. He finishes the year 3-6 with a 5.70 ERA and a 32:28 K:BB in 53.2 innings.

Martinez (15-9) lost after allowing two runs on six hits and four walks with six strikeouts in six innings during Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Cubs.

Martinez allowed two runs or fewer for the seventh time in his last eight starts, but was outdueled by Jon Lester and failed to come away with the win. The 25-year-old has essentially replicated his numbers from last year, solidifying his status as one of the best young starting pitchers in baseball. He will make his final start of the year Friday against the Pirates at home.

Anderson took a no-decision after allowing two runs on 10 hits and two walks with one strikeout in 6.1 innings during Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Dodgers.

Anderson notched his second straight quality start, but it wasn't pretty as he allowed double-digit hits for the first time in his career. He's now allowed 27 hits in 17.2 innings over his last three starts and appears to be fading a bit as he approaches the end of his rookie year. After going winless in four September starts, the 26-year-old southpaw will look to close out the season on a high note against the Brewers on Saturday at Coors Field, where he has a 3.00 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 3.78 K/BB in 12 starts this year.

Teheran's next start has been pushed back after Sunday's game against the Marlins was cancelled following the tragic death of Miami ace Jose Fernandez.

Fernandez, one of the game's top young starters, was one of three people found dead in a boating accident off Miami Beach early Sunday.

Kershaw threw seven shutout innings, allowing just three hits and walking nobody in a victory over the Rockies on Saturday. Kershaw also struck out six.

The Dodgers ace looks to be fully back, having allowed just one run in his last three starts. Kershaw hasn't yielded an earned run in 19 straight frames. On Saturday, it took Kershaw just 23 batters to get through seven innings, as he retired four times. He is now 12-3 with a 1.65 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 168 strikeouts in 142.0 innings this season. Kershaw will pitch his final regular season game Friday against Madison Bumgarner and the Giants.
