Rodon (15-9) earned the win Sunday, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over 5.1 innings against the Red Sox. He struck out five.

Rodon served up a third-inning homer to Tyler O'Neill, the fifth long ball he's allowed over the past four starts, but otherwise held the Red Sox in check to collect his 15th win. Rodon recorded one out following a leadoff double in the sixth but was subsequently pulled after 88 pitches, rendering him two outs shy of a quality start. It was the seventh time in his last 10 starts that Rodon has allowed two runs or fewer over five or more innings, and he has posted a 3.18 ERA across 56.2 innings with 74 strikeouts over that stretch. The veteran lefty is excelling as the Yankees are making their push toward the AL East pennant. Next up for the surging Rodon is a matchup in Oakland against the hapless A's.

Gore (9-12) picked up the win Sunday against Miami, allowing one unearned run on two hits and two walks across six innings. He struck out five.

A fielding error by Jacob Young allowed Jhonny Pereda to reach base in the third inning, and Pereda eventually came in to score on a sacrifice fly by Jake Burger. The Nationals' subpar defense has hampered Gore's fantasy production, with 11 unearned runs being scored across the left-hander's last seven starts. In 153.1 innings, Gore has a 4.17 ERA and a 1.49 WHIP with a 163:61 K:BB. He's tentatively scheduled for a road start against the Cubs next weekend.

Festa did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks over 3.2 innings against the Reds. He struck out four.

Festa held the Reds to just a walk and a hit-by-pitch through three innings but ran into trouble in the fourth, allowing three consecutive hits that led to two runs to start the inning, then loading the bases with a couple of walks that led to him being pulled prior to the end of the inning. It was the second consecutive start in which Festa walked three while failing to make it into the fifth inning. Through 55 innings spanning 12 appearances (11 starts), Festa holds a 5.07 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with an impressive 66 strikeouts. His next turn is set to take place when the Twins travel to Boston to take on the Red Sox.

Lowder (1-2) took the loss Sunday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk across 5.1 innings against the Twins. He struck out five.

Lowder entered the sixth with a one-run lead but was pulled after having allowed two batters to reach base with one out in the inning. Each of those baserunners later came around to score, saddling Lowder with two additional earned runs and handing him a tough-luck defeat. The 22-year-old rookie has been highly effective across four starts since earning the call from Triple-A, having allowed just one earned run prior to the three runs allowed Sunday. An encouraging trend is that he's also kept the walks in check, having allowed just one over his last two starts after allowing eight over his first two appearances. He's currently set up to make his next start in a home matchup against the Pirates.

Manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Kershaw (toe) is unlikely to come off the 15-day injured list to make a start before the regular season ends, though a return for the playoffs remains possible, MLB.com reports.

Since being placed on the IL on Aug. 31 due to a bone spur in his big toe, Kershaw has yet to resume throwing off a full mound. With just two weeks remaining in the regular season, he doesn't look as though he'll have enough time to ramp up to a starter's workload before the end of September. A return during the wild-card round of the playoffs may be ambitious as well, but Kershaw could make it back for the NLDS, should the Dodgers advance that far in the postseason and if he's able to ratchet up the intensity of his throwing program in the coming weeks without any setbacks. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues can feel comfortable moving on from Kershaw at this point in favor of a healthy pitcher.

Olson (shoulder) could be lined up to be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Monday against the Royals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Prior reports had suggested that the 25-year-old was trending toward a return early this week in Kansas City, and Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal have been named the probable starters for Tuesday's and Wednesday's contests, respectively. Detroit hasn't officially announced a starter for Monday, but Olson appears primed to make his return after missing nearly two months due to a shoulder strain. He made a pair of rehab starts and most recently tossed three shutout innings on 45 pitches for Triple-A Toledo this past Tuesday, so Olson could be somewhat limited from a workload perspective if he toes the rubber for Detroit on Monday.

Povich (2-9) took the loss Sunday, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks over five innings against the Tigers. He struck out eight.

Povich allowed a third-inning homer by Riley Greene that represented the only two runs allowed by the Orioles' righty. Otherwise, Povich pitched well, rebounding from allowing four runs in 4.2 during his last start by fanning eight while allowing only four baserunners prior to being pulled after five having thrown 89 pitches. It's the fifth time through 14 starts that Povich has allowed two or fewer runs while tossing at least five innings. He's slated to get another shot against the Tigers in his next start, this time within the friendly confines of Camden Yards.

Montero (6-6) earned the win Sunday, allowing five hits and one walk over five scoreless innings against the Orioles. He struck out one.

Montero did not allow a run for the second game in a row, with the biggest threat coming when he worked around a one-out second and third situation in the third inning. The 24-year-old rookie was pulled following just 63 pitches through five innings after coming off a complete-game shutout of the Rockies in his last start. Montero's ERA has dropped nearly a full run thanks to his most recent performances, moving from 5.47 to 4.60 with a 1.27 WHIP and 66 strikeouts through 88 innings. He's next slated to get another shot at the Orioles, this time in Baltimore.

The Diamondbacks recalled Walston from Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

The left-hander was activated from the injured list in mid-August after missing two months due to an elbow issue, but he was immediately sent to Triple-A. Walston has started in two of his three appearances with Arizona this season, but he's likely to work in a long-relief role this time around.

The Angels placed Aldegheri on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a blister on his left middle finger.

The 23-year-old surrendered four earned runs over two innings during his third MLB start Saturday, and he won't be eligible to return from the IL before the end of the season. Aldegheri had a 3.60 ERA in two starts with Double-A Reading after being acquired by the Angels ahead of the summer trade deadline, and he posted a 4.85 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 10:10 K:BB over 13 frames in his first taste of the big leagues. The left-hander should have a chance to crack the Angels' starting rotation coming out of spring training, but he could also begin the campaign in the minors given he has yet to see action at the Triple-A level.
