Watson has rebounded well after struggling late in August. He's on a seven-inning scoreless streak with a save and five holds over his last eight appearances. Watson got the save chance Tuesday since the Angels have been avoiding having Ben Joyce pitch consecutive days, and he worked a scoreless inning Monday on 20 pitches. For the year, Watson has a 3.99 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 60:22 K:BB over 70 innings between the Angels and the Red Sox.

Johnson (5-8) allowed one run on six hits and a hit batsman while striking out seven and walking none over six innings to earn the win over the Mariners on Tuesday.

This was Johnson's fourth quality start in his last five outings, and he's come away with a win in three of those games. The 24-year-old struggled at times during his early stints in the majors, but he's turned the corner with just 10 runs allowed over 44.1 innings since the start of August. Overall, Johnson sports a 4.88 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 70:39 K:BB through 90.1 innings over 20 games (17 starts) this year. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Twins.

Latz preserved the lead and secured the five-out save, his first save of over three outs since Aug. 15. The 30-year-old struck out Andruw Monasterio to escape a bases-loaded jam in the eighth, then punched out two more in the ninth for his 30th save. The southpaw sports a 2.00 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 76:22 K:BB over 67.1 innings this season.

Gilbert (12-10) allowed two runs on six hits, two walks and a hit batsman while striking out seven over six innings to take the loss versus the Angels on Tuesday.

Gilbert is at a 3.69 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 194:46 K:BB through 178 innings over 30 starts. The right-hander is within striking distance of the 200-strikeout mark, and he now heads into next week's start at home versus the Astros.

Hays went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-3 loss to the Rockies.

This was Hays' third multi-hit effort in a row, though it comes over the span of a week as he continues to work in a part-time role. The outfielder ended an 18-game power drought when he went deep in the fifth inning. Hays is batting .270 with a .694 OPS, three homers, 12 RBI, 14 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 93 plate appearances between the Padres and the White Sox this year.
