Seranthony Domínguez allowed a home run but secured a save in a 2-1 win over Atlanta on Sunday.

Felix Bautista had pitched in each of the last two games, so it was Domínguez who was given a chance to lock down the save on Sunday. He was given a two-run lead and did allow two hits, including a solo home run to Sean Murphy, but he did enough to claim his second save of the season. There is not a closer competition in Baltimore.

Jackson Holliday went 4-for-4 with a two-run home run in a win over the Braves on Sunday.

Holliday needed this one. The 21-year-old is having a strong season, but also came into the day hitting .223/.273/.331 in 30 games since June 1st with 38 strikeouts and nine walks. He’s up to 11 home runs on the season with 36 RBI and a .260 average, so the season itself has been great, but there will be some bumps along the way for a player who is so young. Perhaps this is a sign that he’s coming out of his cold spell.

Trevor Rogers threw 6 2/3 shutout innings while striking out six and walking two in a win over the Braves on Sunday.

Rogers gave up just two hits while posting a 32 percent whiff rate and 34 percent CSW on the day. His fastball velocity was down to 92.4 mph today, which is one mph down from what we had seen in his previous starts against the Rangers, and that feels important. He showed good command with the rest of the arsenal, and his slider ate up left-handed hitters today. This is not the same version of Rogers that we saw in the last two seasons; however, it’s not likely to be the same version we saw back in his breakout 2021 because the secondaries remain inconsistent. Still, he is worth rostering in most league types, especially with a matchup against the Marlins on deck.

Austin Wells went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI against the Mets on Sunday.

Sean Murphy went 2-for-4 with a home run in a loss to the Orioles on Sunday.

Murphy had a 106.1 mph double in the seventh inning of the game and then rocked a 411-foot solo home run in the ninth that left the bat at 103.6 mph. The veteran now has 13 home runs and 31 RBI on the season while splitting time with rookie Drake Baldwin. There have been some trade rumors swirling around Murphy, and a new home might be best for his fantasy value. It’s tough to use him if he remains on the short side of a platoon in Atlanta.

Hunter Goodman is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the White Sox.

Goodman has gone 3-for-17 with two round-trippers in four contests since returning earlier this week from a four-game absence due to a hamstring issue. It’ll be veteran Austin Nola behind the plate on Sunday afternoon at Coors Field.
