Wrobleski struck out a batter and allowed two hits and one walk over two scoreless innings of relief in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Marlins.

After making his previous appearance as a starter Sept. 6 versus the Nationals, Wrobleski shifted back to the bullpen for the Dodgers' weekend series in Miami. He ended up being called upon Saturday in relief of starter Tyler Glasnow, who was chased after yielding four runs across four innings. Assuming the Dodgers elect to maintain a six-man rotation through the end of the season, Wrobleski could have a chance to start or pitch bulk innings again next weekend versus the Giants. The Dodgers reopened a rotation spot after optioning Emmet Sheehan to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

Quintana (elbow) struck out a batter and allowed three earned runs on five hits and no walks across 2.1 innings Sunday in a rehab start with Triple-A Albuquerque.

Making the second appearance of his rehab assignment, Quintana tossed 47 pitches (32 strikes). The Rockies could have Quintana continue building up over one more rehab start before bringing him back from the 60-day injured list at some point during the final week of the season. Before hitting the shelf May 25 due to a left elbow sprain, Quintana went 2-3 with a 5.27 ERA and 1.51 WHIP over nine starts with Colorado.

Freeland (neck) will be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Padres at Coors Field, MLB.com reports.

On the shelf since Aug. 24 due to cervical radiculopathy, Freeland has been cleared to rejoin the Rockies rotation after striking out five over three no-hit innings during his lone rehab start with Double-A Hartford last Wednesday. Given that the 33-year-old southpaw tossed just 47 pitches in his rehab start, he'll likely be operating with a restricted workload Tuesday. After the upcoming outing versus the Padres, Freeland will line up for just one more start this season before heading into unrestricted free agency this offseason.

Kremer allowed one run on two hits and one walk while striking out five batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision against the Yankees on Monday.

Kremer gave up a solo homer to Jose Caballero in the third inning, but that's the only time New York was able to score against him. The right-hander fell one out shy of a quality start, but he racked up a healthy 14 whiffs on 94 pitches and logged his longest outing since he completed seven frames against Baltimore on Aug. 10. Kremer is next projected for a road matchup against the Angels.

Warren allowed two runs (both unearned) on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision against Minnesota on Monday.

Warren cruised through five scoreless frames before giving up two runs in the sixth. The right-hander was hurt in that inning by a one-out error and a two-out infield single before yielding a two-run triple. Warren was pulled after that hit and was thus unable to notch a second straight quality start, but this was nonetheless another positive outing for him. Across his past four appearances, he's given up just two earned runs over 21 innings while posting a 21:6 K:BB. Warren has lowered his season ERA to 3.89 during that span, and he's projected to next take the mound in Arizona.

Young allowed one run on five hits and five walks while striking out six batters over five innings in a no-decision against the Mets on Monday.

Young struggled with his control, throwing just 59 of 106 pitches for strikes and issuing a season-high five free passes. However, none of the batters he walked came around to score, as the only run he gave up came on an A.J. Ewing solo homer. Young's wildness did prevent him from going deep into the game, but this performance was a vast improvement over the six-run, 3.2-inning dud he posted in his previous start. The right-hander is projected to next take the mound at home against Milwaukee.

Soriano allowed four runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five batters over 6.1 innings in a no-decision against Detroit on Monday.

Soriano was stellar through six scoreless and hitless frames during which he allowed only one baserunner (on a walk). However, he fell apart in the seventh, surrendering five hits -- including two doubles -- while notching just one out as the Tigers put up four runs. That final disastrous frame prevented Soriano from notching a second straight quality start, but he was spared a loss when the Blue Jays posted three runs in the bottom of the inning. The right-hander did manage to complete six innings for the third time over his past four starts after doing so just once across his initial four appearances with Toronto. Soriano will carry a 3.56 ERA into his next start, which is lined up to be a road game against the Rangers.

Alcantara did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing four runs on seven hits, two walks and a hit-by-pitch over five innings against Arizona. He struck out six.

Alcantara was hampered by a three-run third inning that included a two-run homer from Lars Nootbaar. The veteran hurler has allowed four-plus runs in four straight starts and hasn't earned a win since Aug. 8. With a 13-10 record, 3.86 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 149:57 K:BB over 205 innings (32 starts), Alcantara is tentatively scheduled to pitch Sunday at San Diego.

Burnes did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing five runs on five hits and no walks over 4.2 innings against the Marlins. He struck out four.

Burnes wasn't particularly effective, notably surrendering back-to-back homers in the fourth inning. It was a step back for the right-hander, as he twirled three shutout innings in his season debut last week against the Royals after completing his recovery from Tommy John surgery and a teres major strain. Burnes built up to 75 pitches (48 strikes) in his home debut Monday. The 31-year-old's next start is tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Yankees.

Anderson (1-2) took the loss Monday, allowing five runs on seven hits and no walks over 4.1 innings against the Angels. He struck out five.

After looking good in his first big-league win Wednesday, Anderson wasn't able to replicate that performance in Anaheim, being charged with five runs and exiting at 72 pitches (50 strikes). The southpaw's dominance in the minors has yet to translate to the big-league level, as he owns a 5.33 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB through 25.1 innings (five starts). Anderson is lined up to make his next start in Colorado over the weekend.
