Motero (5-3) allowed three hits over five scoreless innings Sunday, striking out five and earning a win over the Marlins.

Montero gave up three singles and did not allow a runner to reach scoring position. He fell short of a quality start but tossed 50 strikes on 76 total pitches; it was his highest pitch count since July 25, which was his last MLB appearance before spending just over a month with Triple-A Toledo. Montero now owns a 4.32 ERA with a 63:27 K:BB through 83.1 MLB innings this season. He's lined up for a home start against Atlanta next weekend.

Astros general manager Dana Brown said that Paredes (hamstring) could be activated from the 60-day injured list during next weekend's series versus the Mariners, though Brown conceded that Paredes' return by that time "could be a long shot," Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Paredes has been on the shelf since July 20 due to a significant right hamstring strain, but because he's elected to forgo surgery, he still has a chance at making it back on the field before the end of the regular season. The 26-year-old has been steadily ramping up at the Astros' facility in Florida in recent weeks, taking part in hitting, running and defensive progressions and most notably facing hitters in live batting practice Saturday. Under normal circumstances, Paredes would likely require an extended rehab assignment prior to being activated, but with the Astros in tight battles in both the AL West and wild-card race, he could bypass a minor-league stint and instead get built up through live at-bats prior to his reinstatement. Brown noted that because Paredes is further behind with his running and defensive work than his hitting at this stage of his rehab program, Paredes would be used as a designated hitter upon his return from the IL.

Suarez did not factor in the decision during Sunday's loss to Toronto. He allowed one run on two hits and a walk while striking out five in three innings.

Suarez threw three innings during a scheduled bullpen game and delivered a solid performance. His five strikeouts matched his season total through 8.2 innings entering Sunday's game. He tossed two scoreless frames before giving up an RBI double to George Springer in the third inning. Suarez owns a 2.31 ERA and a 13:2 K:BB through 11.2 innings. He'll likely continue working in a bulk bullpen role down the stretch.

Lewis went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases and a run scored in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

The former first-overall pick reached double figures in steals for the first time in his four-year career, as he notched his ninth and 10th stolen bases of the season. Lewis nabbed second off Arizona starter Nabil Crismatt in the second before returning in the eighth to swipe second against reliever Anthony DeSclafani. Through 356 total plate appearances, Lewis now sports a .237/.289/.395 slash line with 12 homers, 45 RBI and 35 runs scored.

Bieber (3-1) allowed a run on four hits and a walk over six innings Sunday, striking out five and earning a win against Baltimore.

Bieber coughed up a solo homer to Coby Mayo in the second inning but otherwise did not face much trouble. It was Bieber's first quality start since his season debut Aug. 22. He had given up eight runs over 11.2 frames (6.17 ERA) over his last two starts before Sunday's win. Bieber forced a season-high 18 whiffs on 97 total pitches. He now owns a 3.72 ERA with a 30:4 K:BB through 29 innings. Bieber's next start is projected to be in Kansas City next weekend.

Ober (5-8) took the loss Sunday against Arizona, conceding four runs on four hits and no walks over six innings. He struck out nine.

Despite notching his eighth start without a free pass issued, Ober was saddled with the loss in this 101-pitch appearance. The Minnesota right-hander once again yielded a homer, his 30th given up of the season, when James McCann slugged a three-run long ball in the fourth inning, ruining Ober's opportunity for a quality start. The 30-year-old now sports a 5.12 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 114:28 K:BB across 135.1 total frames. He currently lines up to make his next start at home against Cleveland next weekend.

Clement went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win against the Orioles.

Clement knocked a two-run double in the fourth inning and later added an RBI single in the seventh. It was his second straight game with multiple hits and the third such performance in his last five appearances. Clement improved his season slash line to .279/.314/.400 with 41 extra-base hits over 542 plate appearances.

Springer went 3-for-5 with a home run, two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over Baltimore.

Springer put Toronto on the board with an RBI double in the third inning before ripping a solo shot in the fifth. He later doubled and scored in the seventh. Springer now has back-to-back multi-hit games after a small 4-for-26 (.154) slump over his previous seven appearances. The veteran outfielder has gone 54-for-146 (.370) with 20 extra-base hits since the All-Star break, bringing his season slash line up to .303/.395/.554 through 521 plate appearances.

Peraza went 1-for-1 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 11-2 loss to the Mariners.

Peraza hit his fifth homer of the season and his second as an Angel after coming into the game as a defensive replacement for Yoan Moncada (ankle). If Moncada misses additional time, Peraza could be a candidate to gain playing time at third base moving forward, though he'll have to compete with Luis Rengifo and Chris Taylor. Peraza is slashing a paltry .173/.234/.268 with 19 RBI, 23 runs scored and six stolen bases over 239 plate appearances between the Angels and the Yankees this season.

Moore went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 11-2 loss to the Mariners.

This was Moore's second game in the lineup since getting recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake. He hit just .175 with 15 strikeouts over 10 games during his stint in the minors, but it looks like he'll get the chance to reclaim a starting job at second base to close out 2025 in the majors. For the season, he's at a .192/.285/.350 slash line with five homers, 13 RBI, 16 runs scored, two doubles, one triple and no stolen bases over 138 plate appearances at the big-league level.
