  • Bryan Baker RP | TB

    Rays' Bryan Baker: Bags another win Saturday

    Baker (4-2) picked up the win in Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Red Sox, giving up two hits in a scoreless ninth inning. He didn't walk or strike out a batter.

    The right-hander still leads the majors with 40 saves, but Baker has been the pitcher of record during the Rays' recent spate of walk-off victories as well -- three of his four wins on the season have come in his last four appearances. Through 60.1 innings, Baker's delivered a 1.49 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 62:21 K:BB in a breakout campaign.

  • Noah Cameron SP | KC

    Royals' Noah Cameron: Allows two homers in no-decision

    Cameron did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks with six strikeouts over six innings.

    Cameron threw 65 of 94 pitches for strikes with 12 whiffs but was burned by two-run homers in the second and fourth innings. It marked the first time the 27-year-old had surrendered multiple long balls since July 11, and he's now logged at least five frames in 14 straight outings. He owns a 3.92 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 155:54 K:BB across 172.1 innings this season and lines up to finish his campaign at home against the Guardians next weekend.

  • Rays' Freddy Peralta: Sharp in Saturday's no-decision

    Peralta didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox, allowing one run on four hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out six.

    The former Brewer and Met fell just short of his ninth quality start of the season, getting lifted after 97 pitches (59 strikes), and Peralta continues to turn his season around since joining the Rays and making some mechanical tweaks to his delivery. Over his last five starts, he's produced a 0.94 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB in 28.2 innings while going 4-0. Peralta is set to make his final start of the regular season on the road next weekend in Philadelphia.

  • Brayan Bello RP | BOS

    Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Ties career high with 11 strikeouts

    Bello didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rays, allowing one run on five hits over eight innings. He struck out 11 without walking a batter.

    The right-hander did everything he could to try and help Boston clinch a playoff spot, tying his career high with 11 Ks while firing 65 of 93 pitches for strikes. Bello has been impressive since returning to the big-league staff just before the All-Star break, as he's delivered a 2.28 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 46:11 K:BB over his last 51.1 innings and 13 appearances (two starts). He lines up to make one more appearance in the regular season, at home next weekend against the Cubs, and another strong showing could earn Bello a prominent spot in the Red Sox's postseason plans.

  • Cal Quantrill RP | TEX

    Rangers' Cal Quantrill: Slated for MRI

    Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said following Saturday's game against the Blue Jays that Quantrill (lat) will undergo an MRI on Sunday morning, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Testing is needed after Quantrill left Saturday's game in the second inning with right lat tightness. Lefty Jordan Montgomery picked the team up with 3.2 hitless and scoreless innings in relief following Quantrill's early exit, earning the win against the Blue Jays, and Montgomery could be rewarded with a start next week if Quantrill is unavailable.

  • Astros' Hayden Wesneski: Stumbles late in no-decision

    Wesneski didn't factor into the decision Saturday against Atlanta, striking out three while allowing one run on four hits and three walks in 5.1 innings.

    Wesneski kept Atlanta off the board until the sixth inning, turning in a strong start Saturday. The right-hander has been pretty reliable lately, either logging a quality start or pitching at least five innings while conceding fewer than two runs in seven of his last nine outings since the beginning of August. His final appearance of the regular season is slated to come against the Athletics in hitter-friendly Sacramento, where he'll carry a respectable 3.50 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB over 54 innings.

  • Tanner Bibee SP | CLE

    Guardians' Tanner Bibee: Hit around in no-decision

    Bibee did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 12-6 win against the Athletics, allowing six runs on 12 hits and no walks with two strikeouts over 4.2 innings.

    Bibee was spotted a huge lead but struggled, yielding a career-high 12 hits while generating just seven whiffs on 95 pitches. It continued a rough September for the 27-year-old, who owns a bloated 8.24 ERA in four starts this month while failing to log five frames in three of them. He owns a 4.35 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 142:54 K:BB across 182 innings overall and will try to rebound in his final matchup of the regular season at Kansas City next weekend.

  • Jacob Lopez SP | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Lopez: Torched in loss

    Lopez (6-5) took the loss against the Guardians on Saturday, allowing 10 runs on 10 hits and no walks with one strikeout over 2.2 innings.

    Lopez was jumped for two homers and five runs in the first inning before being charged with another five runs in the third. It was the highest run total the 28-year-old has ever allowed in a single start, and he's now yielded 19 earned runs over his past three outings. He'll take an inflated 5.68 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 108:56 K:BB across 117.1 innings this season into his final matchup of the campaign at home against the Astros next weekend.

  • Trevor Rogers SP | BAL

    Orioles' Trevor Rogers: Fans 10 in tough loss Saturday

    Rogers (10-11) took the loss Saturday as the Orioles fell 1-0 to the Brewers, allowing one run on three hits and one walk over eight innings. He struck out 10.

    A Joey Ortiz triple in the second inning led to the only offense in the game, as Rogers came out on the wrong end of the decision despite delivering one of his best performances of the season. The lefty tossed 72 of 99 pitches for strikes in his 15th quality start of the year, eight of which have come in 12 outings since the All-Star break. He's produced a 3.58 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and dazzling 84:8 K:BB in 75.1 innings during that second-half stretch. Rogers will wrap up his regular season with a road start next weekend against the Yankees.

  • Jose Soriano SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Jose Soriano: Hit hard in eighth loss

    Soriano (12-8) took the loss Saturday against Texas, striking out eight while allowing six runs (five earned) on four hits and one walk in five innings.

    Hard contact hurt Soriano, who surrendered three extra-base hits (one home run) on the evening. The eight strikeouts were his most in a Blue Jays uniform, but the right-hander has now given up at least three runs in six of his last seven starts. He has a 4.73 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 40:16 K:BB over 51.1 innings for Toronto, and what could be his final appearance of 2026 lines up to come at home against the Reds.
