Romano and Estévez work with reduced velocity, Helsley struggles with command, and more.

Sunday’s slate was exhausting. Managers changed usage patterns, relievers struggled, and there were more blown saves than saves secured. Today’s three takeaways focus on:

• Jordan Romano’s velocity dip

• Carlos Estévez notched the save, but the velocity went down again

• Ryan Helsley suffered a blown save, issuing four walks for the second time in his career

There are also game recaps for the following teams:

AL: BOS | CHW | DET | HOU | LAA | MIN | NYY | TB | TEX

NL: CHC | COL | LAD | NYM | PIT | SD | SF | WSH
