Scott did not factor into the decision in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over four innings.

Scott was given plenty of run support but was unable to work deep enough to qualify for a win despite throwing a solid 56 of 82 pitches for strikes. It was a bit of a step back after the 27-year-old tossed 11 innings over his previous two starts while exceeding 90 pitches on both occasions, but he's still managed at least six punchouts in five straight contests. He'll take a 3.45 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 98:33 K across 78.1 innings this season into a home matchup with the Nationals this weekend.

Rogers (7-8) took the loss against the Twins on Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out four.

Rogers struggled to find the plate Monday, throwing only 45 of his 79 pitches for strikes while also plunking a pair of batters. It was the southpaw's shortest outing since May 8 in Tampa Bay, breaking up his streak of 12 starts with at least five innings. Rogers, who's worked to a 2.41 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 64:16 K:BB since the start of June (71 innings), will be aiming to rediscover his control against the Rays in pitcher-friendly Tampa Bay his next time out.

Elder (8-7) took the loss against the Mets on Monday, allowing seven runs on 10 hits and three walks with four strikeouts over five innings.

Elder allowed seven runs over his first three frames, with the majority of the damage coming on a first-inning grand slam. It ends a hot stretch for the 27-year-old, who entered Monday having posted three quality starts while yielding just five earned runs through his first four second-half outings. He owns a 4.03 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 108:45 K across 131.2 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup with the Diamondbacks this weekend.

Senga earned the save in in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta, allowing no hits and one walk with two strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.

Senga was summoned for his first major-league save opportunity and worked around a two-out walk to secure a three-run victory for the Mets. With Devin Williams (shoulder) hitting the injured list, the 33-year-old Senga appears to be part of a potential closer committee for as long as he's out. He's had few bright moments this season, posting a bloated 8.12 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 57:34 K across 47.2 innings as both a starter and reliever.

McAdoo went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox.

In his first major-league game since June 19, McAdoo broke a scoreless tie with a solo blast off Sonny Gray in the fifth inning. He also drew a walk in the sixth and was lifted for Ernie Clement as a defensive replacement in the eighth. The 24-year-old has gone just 5-for-27 with two homers in nine games with the Blue Jays but posted a solid .832 OPS with 16 homers and 12 steals across 385 plate appearances with Triple-A Buffalo this season.

Liranzo (finger) has gone 5-for-36 (.139 average) with three home runs and a 7:16 BB:K in 10 games at Double-A Erie since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list July 28.

Liranzo was on the shelf for nearly four weeks in July after suffering a left finger laceration. He's struggled a bit at the dish since being activated but is still producing at just above the league-average level (.763 OPS, 103 wRC+) over 244 plate appearances at Double-A on the season.

Gray (14-3) took the loss against the Blue Jays on Monday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk with four strikeouts over six innings.

Gray opened with four scoreless frames before allowing a run in each of the fifth and sixth innings, losing to the Blue Jays for the second time in his past four outings. The veteran hurler still managed to log his 15th quality start of the season, a feat he's accomplished in each of his past two turns after stumbling at the end of July. He'll take a 2.79 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 110:33 K across 125.2 innings this season into a road matchup with the Pirates this weekend.

Varland earned the save in Monday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox, allowing one hit and no walks with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.

Varland was called on to protect a one-run lead in the ninth inning and worked around a leadoff double to close the door. The 28-year-old has posted just one clean outing in five August appearances, but he's still managed a save and two wins during that stretch. On the season, he's 25-for-26 in save opportunities while boasting a 1.31 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 76:17 K:BB across 61.2 innings.

The Blue Jays released Jimenez on Tuesday.

Jimenez posted a .633 OPS over 12 games while he was up in the majors with Toronto in April, but he was moved off the 40-man roster shortly after his time in the big leagues ended and had been toiling at Triple-A Buffalo ever since. The Blue Jays opted to move on from Jimenez after he slashed .286/.353/.361 with just one home run over 33 games at Buffalo.

The Blue Jays released Alcala on Tuesday.

Alcala had seen big-league action in each of the previous seven seasons but failed to receive a look in the majors with the Blue Jays in 2026 after inking a minor-league contract with the franchise in December. He spent a large portion of the campaign on the injured list, making just 10 appearances at Triple-A Buffalo while pitching to a 6.75 ERA and 2.00 WHIP over 12 innings.
