Cory Luebke SP - SD: Padres' Luebke combines... Sep 9, 1:34AM

Cory Luebke blanked the Dodgers for six innings and struck out seven to pick up his first major league victory Wednesday. The 25-year-old left-hander allowed just two hits in outdueling Chad Billingsley in a 4-0 game. He wasn't guaranteed anything beyond tonight, but now it seems likely that he'll stay in the rotation, probably as a permanent replacement for Wade LeBlanc. That makes him well worth adding in NL-only leagues.
Luke Gregerson RP - SD: Padres' Gregerson... Sep 9, 1:31AM

Luke Gregerson retired five in a row to end Wednesday's game against the Dodgers and pick up his second save. It was a 4-0 game, so Gregerson was allowed to go for the save after coming in with the tying run on deck in the eighth. The outing was definitely big for him, as he had given up seven earned runs over one inning in three appearances this month, taking his ERA from 2.54 to 3.48.
Daniel Hudson SP - ARI: D'Backs' Hudson defeats... Sep 9, 12:48AM

Daniel Hudson moved to 5-1 as a Diamondback by limiting the Giants to a run in seven innings Wednesday. Hudson has a 1.91 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP in eight starts for his new team. Getting him for Edwin Jackson has made the offseason Max Scherzer deal look a whole lot better at the moment.
Juan Gutierrez RP - ARI: D'Backs' Gutierrez... Sep 9, 12:44AM

Juan Gutierrez notched his eighth save Wednesday in the Diamondbacks' win over the Giants. Gutierrez has allowed one run in 11 1/3 innings since the beginning of last month. Not only does he seem sure to finish out this season as a closer, but he might make a case to keep the job entering 2011.
