Ryan Mountcastle - Homers in lossMountcastle went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Padres.

ImpactMountcastle has hit safely in five straight games and 17 of his last 18 contests. Over that longer span, he's gone 26-for-64 (.406) with four homers, four doubles and 13 RBI. The first baseman is slashing .271/.315/.476 with 16 long balls, 55 RBI, 51 runs scored and three stolen bases through 90 contests overall.

Dean Kremer - Earns quality start in lossKremer (11-5) allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over six innings, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Padres.

ImpactKremer turned in a baseline quality start, with just a rough third inning tarnishing his line. He's allowed no more than three runs in any of his last five starts, giving up 11 runs over 29.1 innings in that span. For the season, he's posted a 4.50 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 124:43 K:BB through 138 innings over 25 starts. The right-hander should get a little extra time to shake off this loss with Baltimore recently transitioning to a six-man rotation. He's lined up for a home start versus the Blue Jays next week.

His renewed efforts on the basepaths have him up to 22 steals this season, three high of his career high from 2021. Tatis is slashing .270/.325/.473 with 19 home runs, 63 RBI, 69 runs scored, 27 doubles and a triple through 101 contests.

Trent Grisham - Cranks homer in winGrisham went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Orioles.

ImpactGrisham got a day off Tuesday to reset amid a 1-for-20 slump over his last six games, and it appears to have done him some good. The outfielder went deep in the seventh inning Wednesday to pad the Padres' lead to 4-2. For the season, he's up to 12 homers, 12 stolen bases, 39 RBI, 55 runs scored and a .211/.317/.381 slash line through 116 games in a near-everyday role.

He's been dominant over recent months, allowing just one unearned run over 20.1 innings across his last 22 appearances. For the season, the closer is up to 27-for-31 in save conversions while pitching to a 0.84 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 65:22 K:BB through 42.2 innings overall.

Blake Snell - Secures 10th winSnell (10-8) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings to earn the win Wednesday over the Orioles.

ImpactIt was another quality start for Snell, who has given up two or fewer runs in all but one of his last 16 outings. The southpaw was able to limit the damage to a sacrifice fly in the first inning and a Ryan Mountcastle solo home run in the sixth. Snell is now at a 2.65 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 176:78 K:BB through 136 innings over 25 starts this season. He's projected for a home start versus the Marlins next week.
