  • Kyle Bradish SP | BAL

    Orioles' Kyle Bradish: Sharp again Sunday

    Bradish allowed a run on two hits and two walks over six innings in a no-decision Sunday against the Yankees. He struck out nine.

    Bradish was excellent Sunday, holding New York scoreless through five innings before eventually allowing a lone run with two outs in the sixth. Bradish has yet to allow more than two runs in four starts since his return from Tommy John surgery while holding opponents to a single run in each of his last three outings. Bradish will carry a 2.25 ERA with a 1.00 WHIP and 39 strikeouts in his next start, tentatively scheduled as a rematch with the Yankees next week.

  • Casey Mize SP | DET

    Tigers' Casey Mize: Falls to Atlanta

    Mize (14-6) took the loss Sunday against Atlanta, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

    It's just the second loss in 10 starts for Mize. The right-hander held Atlanta scoreless through two innings Sunday before he gave up a run in three consecutive frames to finish the day. Overall, Mize sports a 3.91 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP and 131:36 K:BB across 27 starts (142.2 innings) this season. He's tentatively lined up to face the Red Sox on the road his next time out.

  • Braves' Spencer Strider: Sharp in seventh win

    Strider (7-13) earned the win Sunday over the Tigers, allowing six hits and three walks over five scoreless innings. He struck out six.

    Strider has won back-to-back starts while posting a 2.10 ERA over his last five outings (30 innings). The right-hander lowered his ERA to 4.45 with a 1.38 WHIP and 126:49 K:BB through 22 starts (119.1 innings) this season. Strider is tentatively lined up to face the Pirates at home his next time out.

  • Trey Yesavage SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Trey Yesavage: Yields four runs in no-decision

    Yesavage did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Royals, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks while striking out two across four innings.

    Yesavage earned another start after dazzling in his debut against the Rays on Monday, when he struck out nine batters across five innings. He retired nine of the first 10 batters he faced Sunday before giving up two runs in the fourth inning, and he was tagged for two more in the fifth after being lifted without recording an out. Yesavage has given up five earned runs while striking out 11 batters through the first nine innings of his major-league career as he looks to make his case for a spot in the Blue Jays' rotation in the postseason. His last chance to audition will be next weekend against the Rays in Toronto.

  • Sean Manaea RP | NYM

    Mets' Sean Manaea: Yields three runs in second frame

    Manaea (2-4) took the loss against the Nationals on Sunday, allowing three runs on four hits while striking out three across three innings. He did not issue a walk.

    All three of the runs Manaea yielded came in the second inning, highlighted by a Nasim Nunez two-run homer. Manaea was pulled from the game in the fourth frame after tossing 50 pitches (36 strikes) and couldn't escape the loss despite the Nationals not scoring the rest of the way. Manaea sits at a 5.59 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 58 innings this season and is slated to start against the Marlins next weekend in Miami.

  • Nationals' Mitchell Parker: Collects long-relief save

    Parker earned a save in the Nationals' 3-2 win over the Mets on Sunday. He allowed two hits and no walks while striking out two across 3.2 scoreless innings.

    Parker was dispatched in the sixth inning with two men on base and one out and managed to maintain the Nationals' one-run cushion by getting Jeff McNeil to pop out before striking out Mark Vientos. Parker remained in the game over the following three innings and successfully kept the Mets off the board to collect the first save of his major-league career. The 25-year-old southpaw posted a 7.19 ERA and 1.54 WHIP (across 56.1 innings) in 11 starts since the All-Star break, which prompted the Nationals to move Parker to the bullpen Friday.

  • Jake Irvin SP | WAS

    Nationals' Jake Irvin: Captures ninth win of 2025

    Irvin (9-13) earned the win against the Mets on Sunday, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five across 5.1 innings.

    Irvin entered Sunday's game having lost eight of his last nine starts with a 9.00 ERA and 1.86 WHIP across 42 innings. He was supplied with a three-run lead early and was working on his first quality start since July 27 against the Twins before being pulled in the sixth inning. Irvin is slated to start next weekend at home against the White Sox, when he'll look to capture his 10th win of the season.

  • Seth Lugo SP | KC

    Royals' Seth Lugo: Done for 2025 season

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro confirmed Sunday that Lugo (back) won't return this season, Jackson Stone of MLB.com reports.

    Lugo landed on the injured list due to a back issue in early September. He was able to throw a bullpen session early this week but did not respond well. Quatraro explained Sunday that the injury is "not getting better quickly enough to do anything meaningful for him to come out here and force it." Lugo will finish his 10th MLB campaign with a 4.15 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 125:55 K:BB while posting an 8-7 record over 26 starts spanning 145.1 innings. There's currently no reason to believe that he won't be able to have a normal offseason.

  • Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Placed on IL with lat stsrain

    The Brewers placed Woodruff on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right lat strain.

    Woodruff's surprise move to the IL comes after he allowed one earned run on two hits while striking out nine across five innings in his most recent start this past Wednesday against the Angels. The severity of Woodruff's injury isn't known, but the diagnosis of a right lat strain typically doesn't portend a brief absence. Woodruff will be eligible for reinstatement Oct. 3, one day before the start of the NLDS. According to Sophia Minnaert of FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin, manager Pat Murphy said "it's too early to tell" whether Woodruff will be available for the start of the Brewers' postseason run.

  • Brewers' Robert Gasser: Called up, will start Sunday

    The Brewers recalled Gasser from Triple-A Nashville, and he'll start Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Gasser will make his first big-league appearance Sunday since undergoing Tommy John surgery in June 2024. The 26-year-old was optioned to Nashville on Aug. 30 after being activated from the 60-day injured list, and he's mostly been working as a multi-inning reliever for the affiliate. Over 10 appearances with Nashville on the season, Gasser has covered 32 innings while compiling a 2.25 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 36:10 K:BB. The right-hander will be taking the hill Sunday on three days' rest after tossing 2.2 innings for Nashville on Wednesday, so he likely won't work deep enough into the contest to qualify for a win.
