Jose Ferrer RP | SEA
Nationals' Jose Ferrer: Secures one-out save
Ferrer recorded one out to earn the save against Miami on Tuesday, allowing a hit without a walk or strikeout.
Ferrer came into a 7-4 game with a runner on second base. That runner would score, adding another run to Cole Henry's final line, but Ferrer would walk away with his eighth save of the year. Ferrer has now delivered 15.2 straight innings without giving up an earned run, lowering his ERA from 5.03 to 3.89 in the process. He's converted all eight of his save chances since stepping into the closer role for Washington.

Phillies' Otto Kemp: Homers, steals bag
Kemp went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's win against the Mets.

Tyler Locklear 1B | ARI
Diamondbacks' Tyler Locklear: Won't return in 2025
Locklear (elbow) will miss the remainder of the season, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Left elbow inflammation sent Locklear to the injured list Monday, and it seems the Diamondbacks have already decided to keep him shut down for the rest of the season. The 24-year-old first baseman is slated for further imaging to determine the extent of his injury, and there's a chance he may go under the knife to address the issue. He'll finish 2025 with a .175/.267/.262 slash line through 116 MLB plate appearances alongside three home runs, six RBI, 11 runs scored and three stolen bases. With Locklear sidelined, Ildemaro Vargas is the favorite to take over as Arizona's first baseman for the rest of the year.

Marlins' Valente Bellozo: Removed with triceps injury
Bellozo was pulled from Tuesday's game against the Nationals with right triceps tightness, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Bellozo gave up two hits and struck out a batter across two-plus innings out of the bullpen Tuesday before his triceps forced him out during the ninth. The severity of his injury remains unknown, though the Marlins will presumably stay away from using Bellozo in relief over the next couple of days.

Masyn Winn SS | STL
Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Scratched Tuesday
Winn was scratched from the lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Mariners due to right knee pain, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Winn's knee has given him problems throughout the season, most recently preventing him from playing Aug. 24 against the Rays. He'll get another day off Tuesday to manage his injury, and his sudden absence will move Thomas Saggese to shortstop while Jose Fermin enters as the Cardinals' second baseman.
