    Jason Adam worked a perfect ninth against the Braves on Wednesday for his second save.

    The Padres weren’t willing to use Mason Miller for a third straight day, so Adam got the save chance tonight. He has a 2.45 ERA and a 20/8 K/BB in 29 1/3 innings in his setup role this season.

    The 34-year-old hurler has been terrific between stints on the injured list this season, registering a 2.51 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and a 22/8 K/BB ratio over 32 1/3 innings in 36 appearances. No word yet on how long he’ll be shelved for. German Marquez was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move on Thursday.

    Miller, who picked up an impressive four-out save against the Orioles on Sunday, will be away from the club on bereavement leave for the next few days. He’s converted 19 saves with a microscopic 0.90 ERA and 59/12 K/BB ratio across 30 innings this season. His absence will result in either Jason Adam or Adrian Morejon handling any save chances for the Padres. The other dark horse name to watch is hard-throwing rookie Bradgley Rodriguez, who has been an unexpected revelation this season. Fantasy managers should anticipate Miller returning later this week.

    Adam came in with the bases loaded in a 9-5 game, and since he was able to put out what would have been the tying run, he gets the save. He’s pitched twice since coming off the injured list Friday, and will be called on as a set-up man for Mason Miller more often than not.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #40
    The 34-year-old hurler is fully recovered from surgery on his quad and is finally ready to make his 2026 season debut. He’ll step right back into a setup role in front of closer Mason Miller with Jeremiah Estrada (elbow) landing on the injured list in a corresponding move on Friday.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #40
    It was a bit of a surprise when Adam hit the injured list at the end of spring training considering he looked sharp in a handful of late-spring relief outings coming off last year’s quad surgery. He’ll make a couple appearances for Double-A San Antonio later this week before presumably heading to San Diego to make his season debut.

    It was looking like Adam would be ready for the start of the regular season after making a handful of Cactus League appearances at the end of spring training. The 34-year-old veteran reliever will get a little extra time in the minors as he works his way back from last year’s quad surgery.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #40
    Adam has twirled a pair of hitless frames this spring in his return from last year’s quad surgery and could potentially be on San Diego’s season-opening roster. The 34-year-old veteran will operate in a high-leverage role behind elite stopper Mason Miller.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #40
    The 34-year-old right-hander is working his way back from surgery on his quad and has been making substantial progress. He’s slated to pitch in Cactus League games on Friday and Monday, and if all goes well there, it sounds like he’ll be able to be included in the team’s Opening Day bullpen.
  • SD Pitcher #40
    The Padres and Adam appear to disagree, as Adam said that “in my mind” he will be ready for Opening Day. Stammen continued by saying “We’re going to decide what’s best for him. And hopefully we’re on the same page together. We may have a different opinion at times, but we’ve got the best interest in him, not only for this season but for the rest of his career.” It appears as if Adam’s Opening Day status is in some question. Luckily Mason Miller seems well-locked into the closer’s role so it shouldn’t make much difference in leagues that don’t count holds.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #40
    Adam secures a nice pay raise over the $4.8 million that he took home in 2025. The 34-year-old hurler delivered another dominant season in his first full year with the Padres, compiling a 1.93 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and a 70/25 K/BB ratio over 65 1/3 innings before a ruptured quad tendon ended his season prematurely at the beginning of September. He’ll function in a setup capacity in front of Mason Miller once again in 2026, limiting his overall fantasy appeal.

    Corbin Carroll is day-to-day with a hyperextended elbow, manager Torey Lovullo said.

    Good news. Carroll was removed from Sunday’s game after going 1-for-4 with two strikeouts. If he needs Monday off, Jorge Barrosa will probably get a start in the outfield.

    Casey Mize was dealing with groin tightness when he exited Sunday’s game after taking a comebacker off his wrist and is set to undergo tests.

    The wrist was also a factor in his departure, but it’s already doing better. The Tigers are more concerned about the leg issue. Mize has already twice served IL stints due to groin problems this season. If he’s forced there again, Keider Montero could reenter the rotation.

    Ryan Johnson held the Tigers to one run and two hits over five innings in the Angels’ 3-2 victory Sunday.

    Johnson gave up a leadoff homer to Kevin McGonigle in the first, but that was all of the damage. He allowed only one more hit, so the three walks didn’t hurt. He struck out five. Johnson moved to 2-5 with a 6.10 ERA. He’ll pitch in San Francisco next weekend.

    Despite giving up a solo homer to Riley Greene, Ryan Zeferjahn recorded his third save Sunday against the Tigers.

    The Angels bypassed Kyle Yates today after his blown save and loss on Friday. That left Zeferjahn for the ninth after Chase Silseth and Sam Bachman set him up with scoreless innings. Zeferjahn gave up the homer to start the inning, making it a one-run game, but he retired the remaining three batters he faced. He’s now gone five straight appearances without allowing a walk, which is pretty big. He’d walked 31 in 40 2/3 innings previously. If he continues to stay away from the free passes, he might be a decent enough closer for the Angels. However, his name has already started coming up in trade rumors as the Halos prepare to sell at the deadline.

    Jo Adell went 0-for-4 against the Tigers on Sunday to finish hitless for a sixth straight game.

    Adell is 0-for-19 with one walk during the two-series stretch. He hit the ball hard twice today, but both were pounded right into the ground. Adell is still showing elite bat speed, and his 22.4 percent strikeout rate is the lowest mark of his career. One would think he’d be doing better than this, and he might be a candidate for a change-of-scenery trade before the deadline.

    Kerry Carpenter went 0-for-4 against the Angels on Sunday and is without a hit in 21 at-bats since July 5.

    Carpenter is 3-for-34 with no extra-base hits or RBI this month, dropping his OPS from .810 to .722. He put four balls in play today and none of them topped 90 mph. Considering his inability to hit lefties and his lack of defensive value, Carpenter is quite the liability when he’s not crushing righties. The Tigers need a lot more from him than this.

    Corbin Carroll left Sunday’s game against the Cardinals with an apparent injury.

    Carroll was removed for a pinch hitter in the ninth inning in the extra-inning victory. He went 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts before leaving, and looked to be in a good amount of pain in his final at-bat. The Diamondbacks should have an update on Carroll’s potential availability soon.

    Cole Young went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in the Mariners’ 6-3 win over the Giants on Sunday.

    With Dominic Canzone resting, the 22-year-old Young hit third for the first time this season today, even though the Mariners were facing a lefty and Young had hit just .217/.267/.330 against southpaws. It worked out just fine, obviously. Young reached on an error, struck out and singled against Robbie Ray and then homered off righty Adrian Houser in the seventh. He also hit a big homer in Saturday’s win, and he now has 13 on the year.

    Logan Gilbert fanned 10 while allowing three runs over six innings Sunday in a win over the Giants.

    Gilbert gave up three hits, including a homer, in a two-run first and then just one more over his remaining five innings. The 10 strikeouts matched his season high established last month against the Orioles. He’s 6-2 with a 2.42 ERA in his last 10 starts, and he’s up to 10th in the majors with 129 strikeouts on the season. He’ll pitch in Texas next weekend.

    Andrés Muñoz struck out two in a perfect ninth for a save Sunday against the Giants.

    It’s Muñoz’s fourth straight hitless appearance. He hasn’t allowed a run in any of his last 12 outings, and he’s now up to 17 saves on the year.
