Seymour (9-6) took the loss Monday against the Mets, allowing three runs on six hits while striking out 10 without issuing a walk over 6.1 innings.

Seymour generated 19 whiffs on 52 swings while recording his second double-digit strikeout performance of the season. He notched seven of his 10 strikeouts over the first three innings, including coming one pitch away from an immaculate inning in the first. Seymour surrendered a solo homer to Mark Vientos in the seventh before exiting and watching another score from the dugout. He has now delivered a quality start in five of his last eight outings. Despite losing three straight starts, allowing 10 runs (nine earned) across 17 innings, he's racked up 23 strikeouts during that span. Seymour owns a 4.21 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 138:32 K:BB across 113.1 innings heading into his next scheduled start against the Rangers.

Munoz blew the save Monday against Boston, allowing one run on one hit and no walks in 1.1 innings. He struck out three.

It was a rare instance where Munoz was tasked with recording more than three outs, and he took his fourth blown save in his last 10 outings and ninth of the season. The hard-throwing right-hander endured a rough month of August, posting a 5.56 ERA with five saves in nine chances covering 11 appearances, so he's certainly testing Seattle's trust with him in its closer role.

Arozarena went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two additional runs scored in Monday's 9-8 extra-inning loss to Boston.

The 31-year-old outfielder racked up a season-high-tying four RBI on Monday, tallying his second four-hit attack of 2026. Arozarena has remained a fantasy stalwart this season, slashing .274/.371/.465 with 21 big flies, 62 RBI, 20 stolen bases and 88 runs scored over 561 plate appearances for his sixth straight 20-homer, 20-steal campaign.

Kirby took a no-decision against the Red Sox on Monday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out two.

The ball was flying around Fenway Park on Monday early and often, and Kirby was tagged for four extra-base hits on the evening. The right-hander has been a hit-or-miss fantasy option since coming back from the All-Star break, giving up at least five runs in four of his last eight outings while yielding less than two in the other half. He'll be aiming for some consistency in a favorable home matchup with the Athletics this weekend, carrying a 4.19 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 128:36 K:BB over 152.2 innings.

Acton is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Saint Paul on Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

This move won't become official until rosters expand Tuesday. Acton fared well in his previous stint with the Twins earlier in the season, allowing two runs on four hits while walking three and striking out nine over 6.2 frames out of the bullpen before landing on the injured list April 28 due to a right shoulder strain.

Tolle took a no-decision against the Mariners on Monday, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out six.

Tolle had a hard time with hard contact Monday, giving up three extra-base hits on the evening in a rough outing. He surrendered more than three runs for the first time since July 20 versus the Orioles, but he's now pitched at least five innings in eight consecutive starts. The left-hander will try to rebound his next time out in Baltimore, still holding a strong 3.23 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 147:37 K:BB over 131 innings on the campaign.

Ross is expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A Saint Paul ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Ross is expected to join the Twins as one of the club's September call-ups when rosters expand Tuesday. He's slashing .249/.353/.458 with 15 home runs, 55 RBI, 13 stolen bases and 56 runs in 102 games in his first season at Triple-A and has primarily played third base, shortstop and center field for the Saints in 2026.

Jeffers went 2-for-3 with two home runs, four RBI and a walk in Monday's 11-1 win over the Tigers.

It was Jeffers' first multi-homer game of the season and the fourth of his career. The backstop snapped a monthlong power outage; his last homer came on the final day of July in Seattle. He's been a strong fantasy option at catcher for the most part when healthy, slashing .275/.380/.490 with 12 big flies, 46 RBI, one stolen base and 45 runs scored over 296 plate appearances.

Jobe (1-2) took the loss against the Twins on Monday, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four.

It was a shaky outing all around by Jobe, who served up a pair of home runs and two doubles as well. On a positive note, the 24-year-old right-hander did touch the 90-pitch marker for the first time this season, an important milestone amid his comeback from Tommy John surgery in May of 2025. He'll be looking to get back on track over the weekend in Cleveland, carrying a rocky 4.63 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 19:10 K:BB over his first 23.1 innings.

Woods Richardson was sent outright to Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

Woods Richardson lost his spot on the 40-man roster Friday, and he'll remain with the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Woods Richardson owns a 6.68 ERA and 1.76 WHIP with 40 strikeouts across 66.0 innings this season with the Blue Jays.
