DeGrom (10-4) took the loss Sunday against Seattle, allowing five runs on four hits and three walks across five innings. He struck out five.

DeGrom has now allowed 10 homers across his last six starts after surrendering long balls to Jorge Polanco, Julio Rodriguez and J.P. Crawford on Sunday. The 37-year-old has allowed five runs in back-to-back appearances after yielding more than three runs in just one of his first 21 outings. DeGrom will look to get back on track next time out, though he's tentatively scheduled for a tough matchup against the Phillies.

Evans (5-4) picked up the win Sunday against Texas, allowing three runs on five hits and no walks with three strikeouts across five innings.

Evans yielded six runs to the A's in his last start, so Sunday's performance served as a bounce-back. The 24-year-old didn't issue a walk for the first time this season. He's been rather inconsistent lately, yielding six runs in two of his last five starts but allowing three or fewer in each of the other three outings. He has a 4.30 ERA on the season. Evans is expected to face the Rays in his next start.

Munoz picked up the save Sunday against the Rangers, allowing one walk and no hits with one strikeout over a scoreless ninth inning.

Munoz walked the first batter he faced Sunday, but he retired the next two batters while the baserunner he walked was caught stealing. Munoz has thrown eight consecutive scoreless innings, racking up four saves during that stretch. He's one of five relievers with at least 25 saves this season.

Garcia went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and an additional run scored during Sunday's 5-4 loss to Seattle.

Garcia notched his first three-hit game since July 1, falling a triple shy of the cycle Sunday. The outfielder walked in his fourth plate appearance as well. He has hit 16 round trippers this season, and he has 21 doubles. In his last 12 games, Garcia is 10-for-47 (.213) with three home runs and nine runs scored.

Rodriguez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base during Sunday's 5-4 win over Texas.

The performance marked Rodriguez's fourth time logging a home run and a stolen base in 19 games. The outfielder's long ball was his 20th of the year, and he now has 21 steals. Rodriguez is one of four players with at least 20 homers and steals, joining Jose Ramirez, Pete Crow-Armstrong and Randy Arozarena in the elite group. Rodriguez is slashing .252/.308/.435 in 2025.

Crawford went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Sunday's 5-4 win over the Rangers.

Crawford took Jacob deGrom yard in the fourth inning, marking the shortstop's ninth homer of the campaign. He's swatted a long ball in two of his last three games, and Crawford has now scored a run in four consecutive contests. However, he hasn't had a multi-hit game since July 20. Since then, he's gone 6-for-33 (.182) at the dish.

Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's loss to Miami.

Chisholm knocked a two-run shot in the seventh inning, but it wasn't enough in the 7-3 loss. He entered Sunday in a 3-for-25 (.120) skid since his last multi-hit performance July 26. Chisholm also snapped a 10-game homerless drought Sunday. He's now slashing .246/.338/.478 with 30 extra-base hits and 51 RBI through 81 appearances.

Bleday went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and three runs scored in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Bleday delivered one of his best games of the season, capping off a perfect day at the plate with a solo shot off Kyle Nelson in the ninth inning. The 27-year-old outfielder had his first four-hit effort since August 2024, but despite the standout performance, Bleday has struggled at the dish this season, slashing just .206/.298/.388 through 64 games. Sunday's outburst could be a step toward turning things around as the second half unfolds.

Gil (0-1) yielded five runs on five hits and four walks over 3.1 innings Sunday, striking out three and taking a loss against Miami.

Gil was reinstated from the injured list to make his 2025 debut after recovering from a lat injury. He couldn't find his groove against a red-hot Marlins squad; Gil coughed up three runs in the second inning and was charged with two more when Kyle Stowers knocked a home run off reliever Brent Headrick in the fourth. Gil threw 77 pitches (44 strikes) but forced only five whiffs. He threw 75 pitches in his final rehab outing with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, so he should be expected to have a fairly regular workload moving forward. He's projected for a home matchup against the Astros next weekend.

Cowser went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Cubs.

Sunday marked just the fourth multi-hit game for Cowser across 27 games since the start of July. With Cedric Mullins now out of the fold, Cowser should see steady action in Baltimore's outfield the rest of the way despite his recent dry spell. Cowser is slashing only .209/.280/.308 with two home runs, three doubles, seven RBI and five stolen bases over his last 100 plate appearances.
