Nick Sogard gets a day off on Monday

Rock threw 16 pitches and recorded zero outs in his Athletics debut yesterday, in a game that also featured three stolen bases against him.

Barnett will start tonight’s game against the Guardians. Normally we can’t recommend streaming pitchers with a 7.08 ERA, and today will be no exception.

Heuer did not pitch in the few days he was active since being recalled on September 14. The Orioles needed the roster spot for Cade Povich so he could start tonight against the Brewers.

He’ll start tonight’s game against the Brewers. The Brewers have clinched, so it’s not a blaring light “don’t stream” if you’re in need of wins, but he’ll be hard to trust.

He’s appeared in three games for the Syracuse Mets and homered in each of them. Rojas has been moved around between second, shortstop, and third since being acquired. His short-term future is likely tied to if Bo Bichette opts out of his contract this offseason or not. If Bichette stays, Rojas will likely be trying to push Marcus Semien out at second base. If Bichette goes, Rojas could be part of a spring training competition at third base.

The Angels top prospect at this point, acquired for Jose Soriano at the trade deadline, has now homered in five straight games. Nimmala is hitting .260/.389/.577 for the Trash Pandas in 27 games. He could probably use some real seasoning at Triple-A next year, but acquiring him has certainly given the Angels a long-term plan if they want to deal Zach Neto at some point this offseason.

Bowlan said he felt his groin tighten on the second-to-last pitch he threw in the eighth inning. He’d given up runs in last five appearances before the injury, so letting him heal up probably isn’t the worst timing in the world for the Phillies as they look to secure their wild card position.

Meckler plated Zach Neto after Mike Trout previously singled to tie the game. The 26-year-old Meckler has a nice .294/.370/.381 line through 299 plate appearances, and unless the Angels go on a major spending spree this winter, one imagines he’ll get a chance to remain the team’s left fielder against right-handers to start 2027.

Ureña managing to retain mixed-league value pretty much all year long in a situation as bad for pitchers as the one in Anaheim is one of the top accomplishments from any rookie this year. Not even just rookies, really. Ureña departed with a 3-0 lead tonight, but it failed to hold up, keeping him 9-10 with a 2.74 ERA. He’ll probably make just one more start Wednesday against the A’s.
