  • Zack Littell SP | CIN

    Reds' Zack Littell: Bounces back in no-decision

    Littell took a no-decision Tuesday against the Padres, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.

    Tuesday's showing was a major improvement for Littell, who had matched a season worst with four home runs allowed his last time out. The veteran right-hander leads MLB with 34 homers given up in 2025, although he's served up just two long balls over four road starts since joining the Reds as opposed to six big flies across three home outings for Cincinnati. Littell, who owns a 3.80 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 119:29 K:BB through 170.2 frames this year, is slated to make his next start in St. Louis.

  • Adam Mazur P | MIA

    Marlins' Adam Mazur: Struggles against Nationals

    Mazur (0-3) yielded six runs (four earned) on eight hits and three walks over 4.1 innings Tuesday, striking out one and taking a loss against Washington.

    Mazur was greeted with a three-run shot by Josh Bell in the first inning. The Marlins then plated a pair of unearned runs in the fourth before Daylen Lile belted a solo homer in the fifth. Mazur had allowed two home runs through three starts at the MLB level this year before Tuesday's poor performance. He's now sporting a 6.30 ERA with a 13:8 K:BB across 20 MLB innings. Mazur is currently projected to face the Tigers at home this weekend, though it's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation.

  • Nationals' Mitchell Parker: Earns win with quality start

    Parker (8-15) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks over 7.2 innings Tuesday, striking out two and earning a win over the Marlins.

    Parker gave up one run through seven innings before the Marlins scored a second run in the eighth inning. Prior to that, the only damage against him was Joey Wiemer's solo shot in the second. Parker earned his first win since July 26 after going 0-5 with a dreadful 9.28 ERA over his last seven appearances. Tuesday's outing marked his first time completing at least seven innings since April 22. For the year, he's sporting a 5.69 ERA with a lackluster 100:56 K:BB through 153.1 frames. Parker is currently slated to face the Pirates at home this weekend.

  • Sean Manaea RP | NYM

    Mets' Sean Manaea: Tagged with four runs

    Manaea (1-3) yielded four runs on five hits and a walk over five innings Tuesday, striking out five and taking the loss against Philadelphia.

    Manaea coughed up all four runs in the first two innings before ending his outing with three near-perfect frames. He produced a 2.08 ERA through his first four appearances but has since given up at least four runs in six of his last seven starts. Manaea has registered a 7.71 ERA during that span, ballooning his season ERA to 5.76 with a 64:10 K:BB across 50 innings. He's currently lined up to face the Padres at home next week.

  • Ranger Suarez SP | PHI

    Phillies' Ranger Suarez: Fans 12 in dominant win

    Suarez (12-6) allowed a hit and three walks over six shutout frames Tuesday, striking out 12 and earning a win over the Mets.

    Suarez rolled through the Mets' lineup with ease and let only one runner reach scoring position. He racked up a season-high 12 punchouts and has double-digit strikeouts in three of his last five outings. Suarez did not produce double-digit strikeouts in any of his first 18 starts. Over his last five appearances, he's 4-0 with a 0.88 ERA over 30.2 innings. Suarez has dropped his season ERA to 2.77 with a 140:33 K:BB through 143 innings. He's currently projected for a road matchup with the Dodgers next week.

  • Rockies' Chase Dollander: Awaiting MRI results on knee

    Dollander underwent an MRI on his left knee Tuesday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Dollander said after his start Monday that his sore left knee was beginning to affect his command and velocity, per Henry, so the Rockies pulled him after he made it through five innings of one-run ball. The team brought him in for imaging to determine whether the right-hander's injury is the result of a structural issue, and the results of the test will help determine his availability for his next scheduled start -- tentatively scheduled to come Saturday in San Diego.

  • Michael King RP | SD

    Padres' Michael King: Activated for start Tuesday

    The Padres reinstated King (knee) from the injured list ahead of his start Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

    King has been limited to just one start in the majors since May 18 due to problems with his right shoulder and, more recently, left knee. Now that both injuries are no longer an issue, he'll rejoin the Padres' rotation and get to face a D-backs offense that has managed just a .670 OPS over its last 15 games. Alek Jacob was optioned to Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move.

  • Chad Patrick P | MIL

    Brewers' Chad Patrick: Promoted for Tuesday's start

    The Brewers recalled Patrick from Triple-A Nashville to start Tuesday's game against the Rangers.

    The right-hander is joining Milwaukee for a spot start, which will be his first big-league appearance since Aug. 24. Patrick has started in 20 of his 21 MLB outings this season and has delivered a quality rookie campaign with a 3.60 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 106:34 K:BB across 105 innings.

  • Grant Holmes RP | ATL

    Braves' Grant Holmes: Begins throwing program

    Holmes (elbow) began his throwing program Monday, Grant McAuley of the Marietta Daily Journal reports.

    Holmes has already been ruled out for the remainder of this season after he was diagnosed with a partially torn UCL in his right elbow in early August. The goal is for the righty to continue to ramp up his throwing over the next two months and head into the offseason and spring training without restrictions. However, given the nature of Holmes' injury, the possibility of setbacks are there.

  • Brewers' Logan Henderson: Throwing bullpen session next week

    Henderson (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Sept. 16, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Henderson is on the 60-day injured list while recovering from a right flexor strain, an injury that occurred in early August. However, he's made progress in his recovery and the Brewers are hopeful that the rookie right-hander will be available at some point during the postseason.
