    Tyler Mahle went 4 1/3 innings while allowing three runs and not picking up a decision against the Rockies on Sunday.

    This makes back-to-back outings where Mahle was only able to complete 4 1/3 innings, which is less than ideal. The right-hander allowed eight hits, and he struck out five while not issuing a walk. Mahle has been extremely inconsistent in 2026 — despite back-to-back similar starts — and his ERA of 5.70 helps tell the story of the clunkers. He’ll try and get back on the right track with a rematch against the Rockies scheduled for Friday; this time in friendlier confines at home.

    Mahle has been an unexpected revelation since coming over from the Giants at the trade deadline, posting a microscopic 1.28 ERA across eight starts in an Atlanta uniform. The lone tally against him in this one came on an RBI single from Isaac Paredes in the fourth inning as he allowed just four basrunners over six frames. There’s a chance that the Braves shuffle their rotation around for the postseason, but Mahle is in line to take the ball against the Reds for his final regular season outing on Thursday.

    It’s a tough break for fantasy managers in the middle of playoff matchups. However, all indications are that Sale, who was originally scheduled to start on Friday, is healthy and not dealing with any physical issues. The decision appears to be aimed towards setting up Atlanta’s rotation for the postseason schedule. It’ll be Tyler Mahle, Grant Holmes and Martín Pérez getting the ball against the Astros this weekend.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Mahle gave up six hits, walked none and struck out three. He improved to 6-10 with the win. Mahle only allowed two unearned runs in his last start, which was also against the Phillies. He’s 3-1 with a 1.25 ERA in seven starts since joining the Braves. Mahle will look to keep it going in his next start against the Astros next week.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Mahle walked one and struck out three in the ballgame. Poor defense in the opening inning put runners on second and third base with zero outs, and Mahle was able to escape with only those two runs scoring. He then blanked the Phillies the rest of the way, affording his offense the chance to come back. The 31-year-old righty generated 12 swings and misses on 94 offerings, registering a CSW of 23 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling as he carries a 4.05 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and a 124/43 K/BB ratio (131 innings) into a rematch against the Phillies at home on Saturday.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Mahle allowed five hits and didn’t walk anyone en route to the no-decision. He racked up 17 whiffs in the favorable spot. He has now made five starts with the Braves since coming over from the Giants at the trade deadline, and he hasn’t given up more than two earned runs in any of them. That’s a 1.48 ERA for Mahle since the deal. He’ll draw a tough matchup against the Phillies on the road next time out.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    He struck out four. It’s Mahle’s shortest outing in four starts for the Braves, but he lowered his ERA for his new club to 1.52. He’ll be a great play at home against the Rockies next weekend.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Mahle gave up six hits, walked one and struck out three. He fell to 4-10 with the loss. Mahle pitched well. He allowed only two runs and worked into the seventh inning. It wasn’t his fault the Braves offense only scored one run. Mahle has allowed three runs in 18 2/3 innings (1.48 ERA) over his last three starts. He’s lined up to face the Dodgers at home next week.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Mahle looks reborn in his two starts since the trade deadline. His fastball and splitter played off each other beautifully here forcing a combined 13 swings-and-misses as he showed pinpoint command of each. He kept the ball away from the Mets’ righties so well and barely threw any pitches in the heart of the plate. Again, his command was simply masterful. This was also the first time he’s completed six innings in consecutive outings all season and he has 16 strikeouts, zero walks, and just one earned run through 12 innings as a Brave. He’s lined up for a two-start week against the Twins and Brewers coming up.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    Making his Braves debut on Friday, Mahle went toe-to-toe with Yankees starter Max Fried, striking out a season-high nine batters while tossing six scoreless frames. This is the second time in as many starts that Mahle has struck out nine batters, only this time he didn’t allow five earned runs as we saw in his previous outing. Mahle was acquired from the Giants at this year’s trade deadline and has had an up-and-down year thus far. This outing was far better than we could have expected in a road start against the Yankees. We’ll see if Mahle can have similar success in his next start, which is scheduled for Wednesday at home against the Mets.
  • ATL Starting Pitcher #54
    The Braves are really just taking on salary here, which in Mahle’s case is about $3 million, and they’re getting guy who has usually been pretty solid when healthy. Mahle has a 5.13 ERA this year, but he’s been better than that lately, posting a 3.79 ERA in his last seven starts. He’s actually throwing a little harder and has a higher strikeout rate (22 percent) than he did last year, when he had a 2.18 ERA in 16 starts for the Rangers. He’ll go into the injured Reynaldo López’s rotation spot for now. He’s still probably just an NL-only guy for fantasy purposes.

    Bryce Eldridge could play Saturday after missing Friday’s game with a head laceration.

    Eldridge, a surprising scratch Friday, banged his head on a low-hanging ceiling at the Giants team hotel. However, he passes tests afterwards, and it sounds like he might have played tonight if the Giants were in the race.

    Tyler Glasnow fanned 10 while allowing two runs in six innings Friday in a win over the Giants.

    Rebounding nicely from a couple of subpar outings, Glasnow allowed just three hits and three hard-hit balls tonight. He’s now 5-1 with a 3.46 ERA. His last start of the regular season will likely come Thursday against the Padres.

    In his first outing back from the IL, Edwin Díaz struck out two in a scoreless ninth against the Giants on Friday.

    Expectations are low for Díaz at the moment, but he was sharp tonight in throwing 12 of his 17 pitches for strikes while pitching with a six-run lead. He averaged 97.6 mph with his fastball, with his 1.3 mph better than his season norm, and he lowered his ERA from 11.85 to 11.05.

    Cesar Perdomo allowed two runs and six hits in 4 2/3 innings Friday against the Dodgers.

    Perdomo did a nice job limiting the damage in an outing in which he allowed six hits, walked three and struck out just one. He’ll probably make a final start next week against the Twins.

    Josue De Paula finished 2-for-3 with an RBI double and a walk against the Giants on Friday.

    We don’t want to jump the gun, but it sure looks like DePaula is going to be on the Dodgers’ postseason roster, even if he’s not a starter following Shohei Ohtani’s return. He’s at .238/.448/.476 with a ludicrous 2/8 K/BB through 29 plate appearances.

    Ty France went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in leading the Padres to an 8-2 win over the Marlins on Friday.

    France is now hitting .301, though he’s going to need 37 plate appearances in the Padres’ final eight games to qualify for the batting title. He’s just a little short of the leaderboard at the moment or else he’d be seventh in the majors in average and ninth with an .887 OPS.

    Nick Pivetta tossed five innings of one-run ball Friday against the Marlins.

    Pivetta allowed four hits, walked one and struck out four to win for the second time in three starts since coming off the IL. He got up to 76 pitches tonight after throwing 63 and 69 in his first two starts back. Things are lined up for him to face the Dodgers next week and then start Game 2 of a potential Wild Card series for the Padres.

    Tyler Phillips tossed 3 2/3 scoreless frames before being lifted Friday against the Padres.

    The Marlins are still being very aggressive, even though the postseason is almost certainly out of reach, and that meant yanking Phillips with a 1-0 lead in the fourth tonight. Cade Gibson did finish that inning without a run scoring, but then he and Tyler Zuber combined to give up six runs in the sixth. Phillips was also pulled in the fourth last time out. He has a decent enough 4.08 ERA in his 19 starts, but the Marlins don’t trust him to pitch more than twice around the order. He’ll face the Cubs next.

    Agustín Ramírez went 3-for-4 with a homer against the Padres on Friday.

    Ramírez was the Marlins’ DH tonight. He’s caught a total of 34 innings since being recalled on Aug. 4, and he hasn’t really shined as DH while batting .233/.320/.384 in 33 games. It’ll be interesting to see what the Marlins’ plans are for him next year. He’s definitely not going to overtake Joe Mack behind the plate, and while he still has some upside offensively, he’s yet to look like he’d be helpful as a first baseman or DH. He could be trade bait, but he might not fetch much unless some team thinks it can turn him into a better defender behind the plate.

    Ben Rice homered, tripled and walked twice as the Yankees decimated the D-backs 9-2 on Friday,

    Rice has 39 homers, which is far and away a record for Yankees who qualify at catcher for fantasy purposes. Gary Sánchez, at 34, holds the actual single-season record for Yankees catchers. One more will give Rice the 36th 40-homer season in Yankees history.
