Arenado left Sunday's game with bruised hand

Nolan Arenado left Sunday's game against the Padres with a bruise on the palm of his right hand.

Arenado injured his hand on a swing in the third inning and eventually left the game in the sixth. "I took a funky swing. I don’t know if I spun my hand, but it got real swollen," said Arenado. "It didn’t feel bad, but it didn’t feel great. They decided to take me out. I tried to stay in." The Rockies are hopeful that Arenado will be able to play Monday against the Marlins.

Kluber records 10 strikeouts, earns 18th win

Corey Kluber earned his 18th win of the season Sunday in the Indians' 4-2 defeat of the Mariners.

Ben Gamel hit a two-run homer off Kluber in the bottom of the fifth, but it came after an inning-opening fielding error by shortstop Francisco Lindor so both runs were unearned. Kluber yielded only five other hits -- four of them singles -- and he struck out 10. The 31-year-old ace boasts a 2.27 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, and 262/36 K/BB ratio in 198 2/3 innings this season for the American League Central champions. His final regular-season start will come at home against the White Sox.

Khris Davis slugs 41st home run vs. Rangers

Khris Davis launched his 41st home run of the season Sunday in the Athletics' 8-1 victory over the Rangers.

Davis contributed a two-run jack to the A's five-run fifth inning. He also drew a walk in the game, finishing 1-for-3 with one run scored and two RBI. The 29-year-old left fielder has registered 83 home runs and 207 RBI in two seasons with Oakland and is looking at a big payout this winter as a second-year arbitration-eligible player.

Judge homers twice in 9-5 loss to Blue Jays

Aaron Judge hit his 47th and 48th homers of the season in a 9-5 loss to the Blue Jays on Sunday.

It's safe to say that the struggles of August are behind Judge. His first homer was a blast off of Marcos Stroman in the sixth, and one inning later he had a three-run shot off of Ryan Tepera. The automatic Rookie Of The Year now has 11 homers in the month of September. He's going to be just fine.

Bryce Harper (knee) expected to return Monday

Bryce Harper (knee) is expected to be activated from the disabled list on Monday.

Harper has been playing in simulated games without issue and will get some regular at-bats in big league games in an effort to prepare himself for the postseason. The 24-year-old superstar was hitting .326/.419/.614 with 29 homers and 87 RBI in 106 games before going down with the knee injury.

Quintana throws shutout Sunday vs. Brewers

Jose Quintana pitched his first shutout since 2015 in the Cubs' 5-0 defeat of the Brewers on Sunday.

Quintana was absolutely terrific in this one, holding a dangerous Brewers offense to three singles and one walk while tallying 10 strikeouts. The 28-year-old left-hander now boasts a 3.50 ERA in 79 2/3 innings since joining the Cubs and Sunday's double-digit strikeout game helped him notch the first 200-strikeout season of his career. He'll wrap up the regular season with a start at home against the last-place Reds.

Giolito dominant over seven in rout of Royals

Lucas Giolito fired seven innings of one-run ball Sunday as the White Sox routed the Royals 8-1.

Giolito gave up a solo homer to Lorenzo Cain in the top of the fourth inning but he was otherwise brilliant, yielding just four other hits -- one double, three singles -- while issuing zero walks and striking out five. The talented 23-year-old boasts a 2.38 ERA, 0.95 WHIP, and 34/12 K/BB ratio over his first 45 1/3 innings (seven starts) with Chicago. Giolito finishes 2017 with a road start next weekend against the Indians, who will probably be resting some regulars.

Rivero earns 19th save Sunday vs. Cardinals

Felipe Rivero earned his 19th save of the season Sunday afternoon against the Cardinals.

Rivero retired all three batters he faced in the top of the ninth inning, two via strikeout. The hard-throwing 26-year-old left-hander owns an excellent 1.72 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, and 86/20 K/BB ratio in 73 1/3 innings this season with Pittsburgh and he should rank as a top-tier fantasy closer (or close to it) leading into 2018.

Betts knocks in three in 5-4 win over Reds

Mookie Betts went 1-for-4 with three runs knocked in during a 5-4 victory over the Reds on Sunday.

After missing Saturday's game, Betts was back in the Boston lineup on Sunday, and he had one of the biggest hits of the game. Down 4-2, he knocked in two on a two-run double to tie the game at 4-4, and he scored the game-winning run on a single by Rafael Devers. It gives Betts 99 RBI on the year, and while he's hitting just .263, he's shown that he's a quality run-producer in the potent Red Sox lineup.
