Ben Joyce RP | LAA
Angels' Ben Joyce: Pockets fifth save
Joyce picked up the save Monday against the Mariners. He allowed no hits and two walks with no strikeouts over a scoreless inning.
Joyce was wild, throwing just nine of 20 pitches for strikes, but he was able to retire the side with no damage done to secure his fifth save of the season. Walks notwithstanding, this was a nice rebound for the hard-throwing right-hander, as he took a blown save Saturday and allowed a run in both of his previous two outings. Joyce has emerged as the top ninth-inning option for the Angels, posting a 3.38 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 15:9 K:BB in 13.1 frames.

Kade Anderson SP | SEA
Mariners' Kade Anderson: Stumbles in second loss
Anderson (1-2) took the loss Monday, allowing five runs on seven hits and no walks over 4.1 innings against the Angels. He struck out five.
After looking good in his first big-league win Wednesday, Anderson wasn't able to replicate that performance in Anaheim, being charged with five runs and exiting at 72 pitches (50 strikes). The southpaw's dominance in the minors has yet to translate to the big-league level, as he owns a 5.33 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB through 25.1 innings (five starts). Anderson is lined up to make his next start in Colorado over the weekend.

Reid Detmers SP | LAA
Angels' Reid Detmers: Collects sixth win
Detmers (6-8) earned the win Monday, allowing three runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings against the Mariners. He struck out eight.
Detmers was tagged for a three-run homer in the fourth inning courtesy of Cal Raleigh, but he still churned out a quality start and picked up his second straight win. The southpaw has been brilliant in the second half, posting a 1.65 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 76:11 K:BB across 65.1 innings (11 starts) since the All-Star break. On the year, Detmers owns a 3.36 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 199:46 K:BB in 174 innings (30 starts), and he is tentatively scheduled to pitch Saturday against the Twins.

Pete Fairbanks RP | MIA
Marlins' Pete Fairbanks: Exits early Monday
Fairbanks was removed from Monday's game against the Diamondbacks due to an apparent arm injury, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Fairbanks was unable to record an out in the bottom of the ninth inning and left the game with the trainer after throwing only six pitches. Monday marked his second appearance since returning from the IL due to medial nerve irritation in his pitching hand, an issue that has forced him to the shelf on two separate occasions this year. It's unclear at this time whether the same issue cropped up again for Fairbanks during Monday's save opportunity, though manager Clayton McCullough noted that the right-hander felt a "similar sensation to what he had previously," per Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com, hinting that a trip to the injured list could be on the table. The team should have another update on the closer over the next day or two after sending him for further evaluation.

Norby went 2-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Padres.
Norby notched a pair of doubles, driving in multiple runs for the first time since Aug. 26. In 30 games since joining the Rockies, the 26-year-old is hitting .293/.381/.475 with three homers, 14 RBI, 16 runs and two stolen bases.

Jake McCarthy LF | COL
Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Tallies 10th triple
McCarthy went 2-for-5 with a double, a triple, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Padres.
McCarthy collected a pair of extra-base hits, with the outfielder's two-RBI triple in the sixth inning being his 10th three-bagger of the campaign. The 29-year-old has hit safely in all 12 games so far in September, tallying six multi-hit efforts during that stretch. It's been a breakout 2026 for McCarthy in his first season with the Rockies, as he's slashing .296/.340/.486 with 15 homers, 80 RBI, 73 runs and 29 stolen bases in 135 contests.

Manny Machado 3B | SD
Padres' Manny Machado: Goes deep again Monday
Machado went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 8-7 win over the Rockies.
Machado started the scoring with a solo homer in the first inning, marking his second long ball in as many days. In 11 September games, the third baseman is hitting .231/.354/.564 with four homers, nine RBI, nine runs and a stolen base. While Machado's .221/.310/.416 slash line is disappointing given his lofty standards, the 34-year-old has still produced 28 homers, 83 RBI, 78 runs and five stolen bases in 146 games this season.
