    • Logs save No. 19
      Holmes picked up the save Sunday against the Dodgers. He pitched a scoreless ninth but allowed two hits and struck out a batter.

      Advice: Holmes quickly got the first two outs of the inning, but then ran into some trouble after allowing back-to-back base hits to bring Mookie Betts up to the plate. Holmes was able to get Betts to whiff on a slider to end the game and pick up his 19th save. Holmes is now tied with Emmanuel Clase for second in baseball in saves. He's been excellent this season, posting a 1.23 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 29:8 K:BB in 29.1 innings. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
       
    • Could make spot start Tuesday
      Varland and Caleb Boushley are the two leading candidates to be called up Tuesday to make a spot start against Colorado, the Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

      Advice: The Twins are going to push their rotation back a day and may call up a pitcher from the minors. Varland hasn't had much success in the minors since he lost the Twins' fifth-starter role and was sent to Triple-A in April. He has a 5.31 ERA at Triple-A St. Paul but a 9.9 K/9.

    • Crumbles in extra-inning loss
      McArthur (2-3) allowed three runs (two earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning to take the extra-inning loss versus the Mariners on Sunday.

      Advice: McArthur's tumultuous pitching continued after a brief three-inning scoreless streak to begin June. He got into trouble in the 10th inning Sunday, allowing an RBI single to Julio Rodriguez and a two-run single to Cal Raleigh. The Royals nearly overcame it with another comeback push, but that fell short. McArthur has given up multiple runs five times this season, with four of those outings coming since the start of May. He's at a 5.27 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 24:5 K:BB through 27.1 innings while adding 12 saves in 16 chances. While he's generally kept decent control, he's giving up too much contact to be reliable, though the same can be said for a majority of the Royals' relievers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:17 pm
       
    • Turns in scoreless appearance
      Francis allowed three hits and a walk over four shutout innings in a no-decision Sunday.

      Advice: Francis made his first start since April 7 and efficiently worked through four shutout frames, needing only 49 pitches to get it done. In his first two starts this season, he was tagged with 12 runs through just 8.1 innings. Sunday's outing was his second appearance since returning from the injured list due to a forearm issue. Francis lowered his ERA to 7.36 with a 22:8 K:BB through 22 innings this season. His next start is lined up to be at home against the Guardians. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:37 pm
       
    • Turns in quality start
      Spence yielded two runs on five hits over seven innings in a no-decision Sunday. He struck out three during the loss to the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Spence allowed a two-run single to Isiah Kiner-Falefa in the second inning but otherwise kept Toronto's offense quiet. After tossing a season-high six innings in his last outing, Spence set a new personal best Sunday while delivering his first MLB quality start. He posted a 4.26 ERA through 25.1 innings out of the bullpen before joining Oakland's rotation; through five starts, Spence has registered a 3.12 ERA with an 18:6 K:BB through 26 innings. His next start is lined up to be in Minnesota. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:14 pm
       
    • Snags first save
      Cabrera allowed an unearned run and picked up a save during Sunday's win over the Athletics.

      Advice: Cabrera pitched the bottom of the 10th inning and let one run come home but still preserved the 6-4 win. It was his first save since the 2022 season when he was with St. Louis. Cabrera owns a 5.25 ERA through 24 innings this season. Yimi Garcia worked a scoreless ninth inning and earned the win Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:07 pm
       
    • Picks up 18th save
      Finnegan earned the save Sunday, striking out one in a perfect inning against Atlanta.

      Advice: Finnegan entered in the ninth frame after a Jarred Kelenic blast cut the Washington lead to three and needed only 11 pitches to finish off Atlanta and secure his 18th save in 20 opportunities. Finnegan has contributed 23 scoreless outings over 26 appearances spanning 26 innings this season, lowering his ERA to 1.73 and WHIP to 0.88 with Sunday's effort.

    • Fans nine in no-decision
      Ragans allowed a run on three hits and a walk over six innings in a no-decision Sunday. He struck out nine during the loss to Seattle.

      Advice: Ragans served up a leadoff home run to J.P. Crawford on just the fourth pitch of the game but was otherwise dominant despite not earning a win. After the homer, Ragans struck out seven of the next 10 batters he faced. It was his second straight quality start and fourth in his last five appearances. He forced a season-high 22 whiffs, including 11 with his changeup. Ragans lowered his ERA to 3.08 alongside a 98:25 K:BB through 79 innings. His next start is expected to be against the Dodgers in Los Angeles. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:49 pm
       
    • Notches save Sunday
      Saucedo recorded one out to earn a save over the Royals on Sunday.

      Advice: Saucedo needed only two pitches to record the final out of the 10th inning during Sunday's win. He's picked up two saves and a hold this month despite getting only four outs during those three appearances. He lowered his ERA to 2.81 through 16 innings this season. Saucedo shouldn't see many save chances moving forward as Andres Munoz (back) returned to action Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:42 pm
