José Ramírez - Homers in lossRamirez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Angels.

ImpactRamirez ended an 11-game homer drought with the first-inning blast. In that span, the third baseman hit just .205 with three extra-base hits. He's up to 22 homers, 73 RBI, 79 runs scored, 23 stolen bases and a .275/.349/.479 slash line through 137 contests this season. Ramirez continues to bat in the heart of the order as Cleveland's most dangerous hitter.

Lucas Giolito - Falls to former teamGiolito (7-13) took the loss Saturday against the Angels, allowing four runs on four hits and striking out nine without walking a batter over seven innings.

ImpactGiolito filled the strike zone, throwing 67 of his 92 pitches for strikes, but he was perhaps a little too precise. Three of the four hits he surrendered were home runs. He's allowed 13 runs over 10 innings with the Guardians after posting a 6.89 ERA across 32.2 innings with the Angels prior to getting waived at the end of August. Overall, he's recorded a 4.89 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 177:60 K:BB through 163.2 innings over 29 starts between three teams this year. Giolito is lined up for a home start versus the Rangers next week.

Matt Thaiss - Clubs ninth homerThaiss went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Guardians.

ImpactThaiss has gotten into just three games since returning from a short trip to the injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. His homer Saturday was his first hit in nine at-bats since his return. The catcher has nine long balls, 31 RBI, 32 runs scored, two stolen bases and six doubles over 93 contests this year. Thaiss is likely to fill a backup role behind Logan O'Hoppe for the remainder of the year.

Randal Grichuk - Smacks two-run homerGrichuk went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Guardians.

ImpactGrichuk has hit safely in seven straight games, going 8-for-27 (.296) in that span. The outfielder is up to 14 homers on the year, including six in 37 games with the Angels since he was traded from the Rockies, though he's hit just .197 with his new team. For the year, he's at a .269/.323/.457 slash line with 39 RBI, 54 runs scored and two stolen bases through 101 contests.

Brett Phillips - Goes yard in winPhillips went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Guardians.

ImpactPhillips has gotten on base in all four games since he was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake, going 4-for-12 with two walks and two RBI in that span. His homer Saturday was his first of the season over 30 plate appearances, and just his fourth hit. He was mainly used as a defensive replacement early in the year, but Phillips has seen a little run of action in center field with Mike Trout (wrist) and Mickey Moniak (back) unavailable.

Tyler Anderson - Goes eight innings in winAnderson (6-6) allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out four over eight innings to earn the win over the Guardians on Saturday.

ImpactWhile Anderson gave up multiple homers for just the fourth time this year, this was one of his better starts of the year. Both long balls were solo shots, and the Angels answered with four homers of their own to support him. Anderson's win was his first since July 23. The southpaw is now at a 5.36 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 112:59 K:BB through 136 innings over 26 outings (24 starts) this season. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Tigers.
