  • Mason Miller SP | SD

    Padres' Mason Miller: Extends scoreless streak Sunday

    Miller earned a hold against the White Sox on Sunday, walking two batters and striking out one over a hitless and scoreless two-thirds of an inning.

    Miller wasn't at his best in the outing, throwing just eight of 19 pitches for strikes. He entered with the bases loaded and one out in the seventh frame, so each of his two walks forced in a run, but he was able to escape the inning with the Padres still in the lead. Though this was far from his best performance, Miller extended to 18 his streak of scoreless appearances. The talented reliever has tossed 19 innings during that span, giving up just four hits while posting a sizzling 36:8 K:BB and recording nine holds with one save.

  • Giants' Spencer Bivens: Records win Sunday

    Bivens (4-3) picked up the win in Sunday's 3-1 victory over the Dodgers, throwing a scoreless inning.

    Bivens entered the game with a runner on second in the seventh inning and retired the first batter he faced before inducing a double play. He threw five of his eight pitches for strikes. The right-hander has made six appearances this month, allowing three earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out six and hitting one across 8.2 innings. Overall, he owns a 4.04 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 57:24 K:BB in 78 innings over 51 outings this season.

  • Marlins' Valente Bellozo: Moves past triceps injury

    Bellozo (triceps) retired two of the six batters he faced and was charged with four earned runs on four hits in a relief appearance in Thursday's 9-7 win over the Rockies.

    Though Bellozo was knocked around for four extra-base hits (two home runs, two doubles) in the relief outing, he's at least seemingly healthy again after he had been forced out of his previous appearance Sept. 9 against the Nationals due to right triceps tightness. The right-hander is likely to continue serving in a low-leverage relief role for Miami during the final week of the season.

  • Kyle Hurt RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Kyle Hurt: Wraps up strong rehab stint

    Hurt (elbow) pitched a perfect inning in relief for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, finishing a seven-appearance minor-league rehab stint during which he posted a 1.93 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB over 9.1 innings.

    Hurt underwent Tommy John surgery last July, so his ability to get into more than a handful of contests at the end of this season is a big positive in itself. The right-hander fared pretty well overall during his rehab assignment, which has come to its conclusion with the end of the Triple-A campaign Sunday. At this point it's unclear if the Dodgers are considering activating Hurt for a final-week look in the big-league bullpen, though the team's relief corps has been pretty shaky of late, so such a decision isn't unfeasible.

  • Brock Stewart RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Brock Stewart: Likely to return in coming week

    Stewart (shoulder) will join the Dodgers in Arizona on their upcoming road trip and could be activated as soon as Tuesday, Michael J. Duarte of NBC LA reports.

    Stewart hasn't made a major-league appearance since Aug. 9, but he's three games into a minor-league rehab stint with Triple-A Oklahoma City that began Sept. 16. In those three outings, the veteran reliever has allowed four runs -- all unearned -- on three hits with a 3:2 K:BB over 2.2 innings. The Dodgers' big-league bullpen has struggled of late, so the team could give Stewart a chance to compete for a spot on the playoff roster with a couple appearances over the final week of the regular season.

  • Victor Vodnik RP | COL

    Rockies' Victor Vodnik: Locks down 10th save

    Vodnik earned the save Sunday against the Angels, allowing a hit and a walk while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.

    The right-hander issued a leadoff walk to Jo Adell but quickly erased it with a double play before ultimately closing the door to secure his 10th save of the season. Vodnik has been outstanding of late, giving up just one run over his last 15 appearances while converting eight saves in that span. The 25-year-old now owns a 2.92 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 47:24 K:BB across 49.1 innings on the year.

  • George Soriano RP | BAL

    Marlins' George Soriano: Grabs first save

    Soriano earned the save Sunday against the Rangers, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning in Miami's 4-2 victory.

    Soriano entered with a two-run cushion, sat down Kyle Higashioka on strikes, and needed just eight pitches to retire the side in order and record his first save of the season. The appearance was a needed step in the right direction for the right-hander, who had surrendered 14 runs across his last 13.1 innings. Despite Sunday's success, the 26-year-old still carries an 8.31 ERA and 1.73 WHIP across 53.1 innings on the season.

  • Phillies' Orion Kerkering: Beginning to struggle

    Kerkering allowed one run on three hits in one inning Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

    Kerkering has now yielded one run in three consecutive outings, and he's watched his ERA for the year climb from 2.81 on Aug. 19 to 3.28 following Sunday's showing. With Jose Alvarado (forearm) now out of the picture, Kerkering still remains very likely to make Philadelphia's playoff roster despite his recent struggles. Through 57.2 innings in 2025, Kerkering has a 3.28 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 61:26 K:BB.

  • Jordan Romano RP | LAA

    Phillies' Jordan Romano: Remains shut down from throwing

    Romano (finger/neck) hasn't resumed throwing, per MLB.com.

    Romano was working his way back from right middle finger inflammation before reporting neck stiffness and numbness in his finger last weekend, and his throwing program appears to have reached a standstill. The right-hander is very unlikely to rejoin Philadelphia's bullpen before the end of the regular season at this point, although the door is theoretically open for him to return during the postseason.

  • Braves' Daysbel Hernandez: Shifts to 60-day IL

    Atlanta transferred Hernandez (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

    Hernandez had been on the shelf since Sept. 12 due to right shoulder inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL officially spells an end to his season. Before getting hurt, Hernandez made 39 appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen and logged a 3.41 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 33:30 K:BB across 37 innings.
