Josh Osich - R - Giants

Josh Osich got the last five outs of the ballgame -- three via the strikeout -- and earned a win as his team beat the Padres 5-4 in extra innings on Saturday.

He was called upon to get the last two outs of the 11th inning and stayed in the game to work the 12th in scoreless fashion as well. He struck out three batters and the only baserunner he allowed came when he beaned Matt Szczur. Osich has been a steady middle reliever this season despite an elevated walk rate. He has a 3.77 ERA with 32 strikeouts and 16 walks in 31 innings.
Jul 22 - 8:52 PM
Eduardo Nunez - 3B - Giants

Eduardo Nunez went 3-for-5 and drove in two runs in a win over the Padres on Saturday.

He also worked a walk in the long ballgame. He came to the plate with the bases loaded in the fourth inning and singled to plate two runs. The third baseman missed some time recently with a hamstring injury and has been mentioned in trade rumors of late. His 17 stolen bases are his best fantasy asset. He has a .299 batting average with four homers, 35 runs and 29 RBI in 73 games.
Jul 22 - 8:43 PM
Matt Moore - S - Giants

Matt Moore surrendered four runs in six innings and came away without a decision against the Padres on Saturday.

It has been a rough season for the former elite prospect, but he pitched well today except for one bad inning. All four runs he allowed came home in the fourth frame. It started with a solo home run off the bat of Wil Myers, followed by three singles and then a triple by opposing pitcher Luis Perdomo. On the good side, Moore was able to punch out seven batters without issuing a base-on-balls in the contest. He owns a dreadful 3-10 record and a 5.82 ERA. Coming into today's game he had a 4.20 ERA at home and a 7.61 ERA on the road this year.

Dallas Keuchel - S - Astros

Dallas Keuchel (neck) let up three hits and one run over five strong innings Saturday in a rehab start for Low-A Quad Cities.

Keuchel notched five strikeouts and didn't walk anyone while throwing 48 of his 62 pitches for strikes. He'll reportedly meet up with the team in Baltimore on Sunday and could return from the disabled list next Friday or Saturday against the Tigers. The left-hander was a Cy Young contender before injuries derailed his first half, contributing a stellar 1.67 ERA over 11 starts. He hasn't lost a game since last August.

Chi Chi Gonzalez - S - Rangers

Chi Chi Gonzalez (elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery next week.

Gonzalez had been working his way back from a slight UCL tear in his throwing elbow but Tommy John surgery became necessary after a recent setback. His surgery will be performed by Dr. Keith Meister. This will knock Gonzalez out for all of 2017 and probably most of next year as well. The right-hander holds a 4.54 ERA over 17 big league appearances including 13 starts.

Wil Myers - 1B - Padres

Wil Myers cracked a solo home run and finished the day 1-for-5 in Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Giants.

He went yard off starter Matt Moore to get the Padres on the board in the fourth inning. It was his 19th longball of the year. He hit 28 of them last year and will likely end up near that number again. The well-rounded, five-category producer is slashing .252/.332/.471 with 46 RBI, 51 runs scored and 10 stolen bases.
Jul 22 - 8:28 PM
Pedro Severino - C - Nationals

According to Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post, Pedro Severino will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

He'll be taking the place of Ryan Raburn, who is slated to go on bereavement leave. The 24-year-old hasn't hit much this year, batting a mere .211 with four homers and 26 RBI over 161 at-bats for Syracuse. He'll give the Nationals some catching depth behind Matt Wieters and Jose Lobaton.
