Helsley allowed a hit and a walk in a scoreless inning while earning a save against Atlanta on Sunday. He struck out one batter.

Helsley put two runners on base with no outs but escaped the jam and finished off the 5-4 win. After blowing three straight chances in early June, he's converted six straight while allowing only one run over his last eight outings. Helsley owns a 3.27 ERA and a 36:14 K:BB while converting 19 of his 24 save chances this season.

Daniel did not factor in the decision during Sunday's loss to St. Louis. He allowed a run on two hits and three walks over four innings while striking out five.

Daniel was promoted from Triple-A Gwinnett to make his first MLB appearance since April 27. He ran into some trouble in the first two frames and coughed up a run in the second inning before retiring seven of the last eight batters he faced. Daniel has posted a 3.27 ERA over 71.2 innings at the Triple-A level this season. As of now, it's unclear if he'll stick around with Atlanta after the All-Star break. There may be room for Daniel to carve out a role as the team deals with a banged-up rotation, including injuries to Chris Sale (ribs) and Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow).

Kranick is scheduled to meet with Dr. Keith Meister to receive a second opinion on his right elbow injury, and Tommy John surgery could be a possibility for the right-hander, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.

Kranick was placed on the 15-day injured list June 19 due to right flexor strain, and after being re-examined Thursday following three-week rest period, the 27-year-old seemingly hasn't made enough progress in his recovery to start throwing. He'll receive feedback from Dr. Meister before a determination is made on his treatment plan, but Kranick could be at risk of requiring the second Tommy John surgery of his career, after he previously underwent the procedure in June 2022. Another Tommy John surgery would knock Kranick out for the remainder of the season and would likely sideline him for the entire 2026 campaign.

Butto (illness) is scheduled to make a rehab appearance in the rookie-level Florida Complex League on Tuesday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

New York placed Butto on the 15-day injured list July 4 after he came down with an illness, but the right-hander shouldn't be in line for an extended stay on the shelf. He may need just one or two rehab appearances before being cleared to return from the IL, possibly in advance of the Mets' first game out of the All-Star break Friday versus the Reds.

Strahm walked two in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Padres.

Strahm threw just seven of 16 pitches for strikes, but he was able to avoid giving up a run to preserve a thing lead. He's on a six-inning scoreless streak, during which he has picked up two saves and one hold while adding a 7:4 K:BB. Strahm is at a 3.29 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 44:12 K:BB with six saves, 10 holds and four blown saves over 38.1 innings this season. The Phillies' closer role is a committee at this point, but Strahm has been more reliable than Jordan Romano or Orion Kerkering in recent weeks.

Bednar earned the save Sunday against the Twins, allowing one hit and striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning to preserve the 2-1 victory.

Called on to protect a one-run lead, Bednar calmly closed the door with a pair of strikeouts to make it 18 consecutive appearances without an earned run, a dominant stretch during which the 30-year-old has collected 23 strikeouts and allowed just 12 baserunners. After a rough 2024 and start to 2025, the right-hander has been extremely reliable for Pittsburg when called upon, converting all 13 save attempts and closing in on two months without an earned run. Rightfully so, Bednar has remained locked in as Pittsburgh's main ninth-inning option and will look to continue shutting things down post All-Star break.

Scott allowed two runs on two hits and a walk over one inning, taking a blown save in Sunday's 5-2 extra-innings win over the Giants.

Offense was at a premium in the first nine innings, but Scott allowed a game-tying, two-run home run to pinch hitter Luis Matos in the ninth. This was Scott's second blown save in three outings, and he's been tagged for five runs over five innings to begin July. He's now 19-for-26 in save chances while adding seven holds over 45 appearances this season. Scott's ERA is up to 4.09 with a 1.14 WHIP, but his impressive control (49:8 K:BB) should keep him firmly in the high-leverage mix as long as can bounce back following the All-Star break.

Pagan picked up the save Sunday, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning to close out the 4-2 win over the Rockies.

Pagan made quick work of Colorado in the final frame, needing only 14 pitches to retire the side in order and lock down his 20th save of the season. The veteran right-hander has now converted 20 of 23 save chances and has been especially effective lately, allowing only two earned runs over his last 15 appearances. Pagan continues to provide stability for Cincinnati while keeping his role as the team's preferred closer firmly intact.

McGee was optioned to Triple-A Nashville following Sunday's 8-1 win over the Nationals.

McGee will return to Triple-A after being called up July 1 and tossing three innings of one-run ball during which he allowed two hits and two walks while punching out three batters in three relief appearances. The right-hander has produced a 2.57 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with seven strikeouts over five innings in five outings with the Brewers this season, and he'll likely get another shot with the big-league club down the road this year.

Palencia tossed a scoreless ninth inning with a strikeout to secure the save in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Yankees.

Palencia was needed to put out a fire Saturday, retiring the final two batters of the game to record a save, but he had a more conventional appearance Sunday. The righty came on for the full ninth inning with the Cubs up three runs, and he retired New York in order on 14 pitches to pick up his 12th save of the season. Palencia has emerged as Chicago's clear top closer, and he's been lights-out in the role with a 1.57 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 39 strikeouts across 34.1 innings. Given how well the Cubs are playing, Palencia figures to see plenty of save chances moving forward, which boosts his fantasy profile.
