Suarez struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Nationals.

Suarez has posted back-to-back scoreless outings after a stretch of three appearances in which he allowed seven runs over one inning. The 34-year-old also picked up his 22nd save of the year, though it was his first since June 8 versus the Brewers, in part due to his recent poor performance. He's at a 3.51 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 34:9 K:BB over 33.1 innings. Suarez is currently appealing a three-game suspension stemming from his plunking of Shohei Ohtani last week -- Suarez remains eligible to pitch while the appeal is active, but it's possible he'll drop it if he faces a heavy workload in the near future.

X-rays on Bergert's right forearm came back negative after he was struck by a comebacker in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Nationals, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Bergert surrendered three earned runs over three innings before making an early exit in the fourth inning after a 103-mile-per-hour line drive connected with his forearm. Although he managed to escape without suffering a serious injury, the right-hander said after the game that he was still quite sore, and there's no telling at this point if he'll be ready to make his next start. He's tentatively scheduled to take the hill Monday against Philadelphia.

Harris (elbow) went 0-for-2 with a run scored before exiting Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Mets due to a right elbow injury, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Harris was hit in the elbow by a pitch in the sixth inning, causing his removal from the contest, but he revealed following the game that he didn't sustain any structural damage. The center fielder is considered day-to-day, and it wouldn't be surprising if he ended up taking a seat in Wednesday's game. Stuart Fairchild or Eli White could be called upon to start in center field in that case, with the former having replaced Harris in Tuesday's tilt.

The Mets are expected to select Pintaro's contract from Double-A Binghamton on Wednesday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Pintaro owns a 3.40 ERA and 1.12 WHIP through 42.1 innings in Double-A. The 27-year-old right-hander has worked almost exclusively as a starter throughout his minor-league career, though he will likely be used out of the bullpen upon reporting to the Mets.

Winn went 2-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, a double and two runs scored in Tuesday's 8-7 victory over the Cubs.

Winn's four RBI established a season high, and it was just the fifth time this year that he ripped multiple extra-base hits. June has been a quiet period so far for the speedy shortstop, who's batting just .216 with five doubles, nine RBI, 15 runs scored and two stolen bases through 88 at-bats this month, but Winn has remained St. Louis' everyday shortstop despite the recent cold spell.

Miller fired a clean ninth inning to pick up his ninth save of the year in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the White Sox.

Miller retired the White Sox in order on 12 pitches for his second save in as many appearances. Miller has taken over the closer role for the foreseeable future with the Diamondbacks losing two high-leverage arms for the season. He's enjoying a bounce-back campaign and has allowed just two runs over his last 12 appearances while racking up a 13:1 K:BB over that span.

Helsley picked up the save in Tuesday's 8-7 victory over the Cubs, allowing two hits in a scoreless ninth inning. He struck out one.

June has certainly been a dicey stretch for Helsley, who's now yielded two knocks in five of his seven outings this month, but he was able to hang on for his 15th save Tuesday. The hard-throwing right-hander had blown three straight save opportunities prior to successfully converting his past two chances, so that should offer fantasy managers some optimism going forward. Helsey sports a 3.54 ERA and 33:12 K:BB over 28 innings, but his 1.46 WHIP looms as a cause for concern.

Thomas went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.

Thomas singled, stole and later scored during a three-run seventh for the Diamondbacks. The base knock was Thomas' first since June 14. Despite the recent struggles, Thomas doesn't have any major threat behind him to take away playing time. Jake McCarthy was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday but is expected to primarily make starts in right field while coming up to replace Corbin Carroll (hand).

Durbin went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Pirates.

Durbin singled and scored in the third inning before ripping a three-run shot in the fourth. He's produced multiple hits in four of his last eight contests, going 11-for-31 (.355) during that span. Durbin is now slashing .236/.320/.351 with 14 extra-base hits and 29 RBI through 59 games.

Marte went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.

Marte opened up the scoring with a solo blast to right center in the first inning. He now has homered three times over the last five games and has 15 hits in his last 26 at-bats. Marte currently owns a 1.032 OPS, which would sit third in all of baseball among qualified hitters behind Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh.
