The 26-year-old right-hander was non-tendered in mid-November as the Giants needed to clear a couple of spots on their 40-man roster. Teng broke through to the big leagues with the Giants in 2024, where he posted a 9.82 ERA, 2.09 WHIP and a 7/8 K/BB ratio across 11 innings of work. He’ll continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the Giants.

Chourio’s first homer of the year was a 400-foot blast to left-center, and he also had a 113.3-mph double to left in the eighth. He’s gone 14-for-44 since coming off the IL, giving up him a .318/.362/.500 line in 47 plate appearances.

Henderson left up 2-1, and Chad Patrick held down the fort for the rest of the game. Henderson has a 2.81 ERA and a 20/2 K/BB in 16 innings over three starts since being recalled by the Brewers. With Patrick in the pen, Henderson should survive Brandon Woodruff’s return and remain a key piece of the Milwaukee rotation and a valuable fantasy starter going forward.

Most three-plus inning saves comes in 11-2 games, but not tonight. With Abner Uribe, Trevor Megill and Aaron Ashby all working last night, the Brewers just stuck with Patrick as he allowed one hit, walked none and struck out three over the final four innings. He wound up throwing 52 pitches on three days’ rest in his third straight relief appearance. It looks like the Brewers intend to keep him in the pen going forward, making him pretty useless in mixed leagues. He’ll remain quite valuable to his major league team, though.

Prielipp has allowed one or two earned runs in all five of his starts to date, but he has only a 1-2 record to show for it. His eight strikeouts tonight were a new high. He’s definitely a mixed-league option at this point, but he’s not a great play in a one-start week against the Red Sox in Fenway next weekend.

Trivino expected free agency after the Orioles designated him for assignment and he went unclaimed on the waiver wire. The 34-year-old will be a depth piece for Philadelphia, and they’ll need to add him to the 40-man roster if they deem him worthy of a bullpen spot.

Garver was a late scratch from Saturday’s game. It’s worth noting that the 35-year-old is expected to handle catching duties while Cal Raleigh (oblique) is unable to play, so if Garver needs to miss time, it’ll be Jhonny Pereda starting behind the plate until their return.

Usually “load management” is a term reserved for NBA players, but for Seattle, it’s about making sure Donovan doesn’t aggravate the groin injury that has seen him miss time already in 2026 and required surgery in 2025. When Donovan has played he’s been effective, but fantasy managers have to be prepared for some absences for the foreseeable future.
