Jarlin Susana SP | WAS
Nationals' Jarlin Susana: Dealing with triceps soreness
Susana was diagnosed with right triceps soreness after being removed from his start Saturday with Double-A Harrisburg, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
The 21-year-old allowed three runs over 1.2 frames prior to exiting the contest, which ended a stretch of five consecutive starts in which he surrendered one or fewer runs. The severity of the injury isn't yet known, leaving Susana's availability for his next turn through Harrisburg's rotation up in the air.

Mitch Keller SP | PIT
Pirates' Mitch Keller: Falls to Boston
Keller (6-13) took the loss Sunday against the Red Sox, allowing four runs (none earned) on four hits and a walk across five innings. He struck out seven.
After blanking the Red Sox through four innings, Keller fell victim to some poor defense behind him in the fifth -- Romy Gonzalez reached via error to start the frame before Jarren Duran legged out a three-run, inside-the-park home run with two outs. While he wasn't charged with an earned run Sunday, Keller has been shaky of late, posting a 7.59 ERA across seven starts coming into the day. Overall, the right-hander sports a 4.21 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP and 132:44 K:BB across 28 starts (156 innings) this season.

Lucas Giolito SP | BOS
Red Sox's Lucas Giolito: Grabs 10th win
Giolito (10-2) earned the win Sunday over the Pirates, allowing a run on three hits and five walks over six innings. He struck out six.
While Giolito's five walks were the second-most he's issued in a start this season, the right-hander was able to minimize the damage en route to his 10th victory. Giolito has gone 4-0 with a 2.27 ERA in his last seven outings (43.2 innings), lowering his ERA to 3.38 on the season with a 1.23 WHIP and 105:43 K:BB across 22 starts (125.1 innings). He's currently slated to face the Diamondbacks on the road his next time out.

Luis Severino SP | ATH
Athletics' Luis Severino: Making return Tuesday
Severino (oblique) is scheduled to return from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Cardinals in St. Louis, Jason Burke of SI.com reports.
The right-hander has been sidelined over three weeks due to an oblique strain, and he'll rejoin the Athletics rotation without a rehab assignment. Following the layoff, Severino could face some workload limitations in his first couple outings back in the majors. The right-hander was in strong form prior to the injury with a 3.13 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB over his last four starts.

Joe Ryan SP | MIN
Twins' Joe Ryan: Rebounds to blank Padres
Ryan (13-7) earned the win Sunday over San Diego, allowing five hits and a walk across seven scoreless innings. He struck out eight.
After he was tagged for 11 runs over nine innings in his previous two starts, Ryan rebounded with a dominant outing Sunday, striking out at least eight batters for the eighth time this season. Ryan lowered his ERA to 3.08 on the season with a 0.97 WHIP and 174:30 K:BB across 155 innings. He'll look to keep rolling his next time out, tentatively scheduled for next week in Kansas City.

Tyler Wells SP | BAL
Orioles' Tyler Wells: Set for season debut Tuesday
Wells (elbow) is expected to be reinstated from the 60-day injured list to start Tuesday in San Diego, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
The right-hander has spent the season rehabbing from the UCL revision and brace augmentation surgery he underwent in June 2024, but he's ready to make his 2025 debut Tuesday. Wells built up to 6.1 innings Wednesday with Triple-A Norfolk during the final outing of his rehab assignment, but the Orioles are still likely to be cautious with his workload down the stretch.

Kai-Wei Teng SP | SF
Giants' Kai-Wei Teng: Promoted, joining rotation Monday
The Giants recalled Teng from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, and he's expected to start Monday's game against the Rockies in Colorado, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The right-hander has struggled to an 8.78 ERA across 13.1 frames in the majors this season, but he'll receive another opportunity with the Giants after starter Carson Whisenhunt (back) was placed on the injured list Sunday. Despite his struggles over four outings with the Giants, Teng has been effective for Sacramento this season with a 3.63 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 89:22 K:BB across 57 innings.

Carson Whisenhunt P | SF
Giants' Carson Whisenhunt: Out with back strain
The Giants placed Whisenhunt on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a back strain, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The left-hander presumably suffered the injury during his start Wednesday against the Cubs, during which he picked up the win after allowing three runs across five innings. Whisenhunt will be eligible to be reinstated in mid-September, though it's unclear if he's expected to be healthy by that point. Kai-Wei Teng was called up from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move and will take Whisenhunt's place in the rotation Monday at Colorado.

Andre Pallante RP | STL
Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Takes sixth straight loss
Pallante (6-13) took the loss Sunday against the Reds, allowing five runs (two earned) on six hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out six.
It's the sixth straight defeat for Pallante, who's struggled to a 1-9 record with a 7.79 ERA in his last 10 starts. Overall, the right-hander sports a 5.38 ERA with a 1.44 WHIP and 101:52 K:BB across 27 starts (144 innings) this year. Pallante will look to turn things around in his next outing, tentatively scheduled for next week at home against the Giants.

Brady Singer SP | CIN
Reds' Brady Singer: Notches 12th win
Singer (12-9) earned the win Sunday over the Cardinals, allowing three runs on five hits and no walks across six innings. He struck out eight.
Singer gave up a pair of runs in the first inning before settling down and holding the Cards to one run over his final five frames. It's the fourth straight quality start for Singer, who's gone 5-1 with a 2.20 ERA with 47 strikeouts over his last seven outings (41 innings). The 29-year-old Singer holds a 4.08 ERA on the season with a 1.26 WHIP and 140:52 K:BB across 27 starts (143.1 innings). He's currently slated for a home matchup with the Mets his next time out.
