Tallies eighth save
Munoz picked up the save in Monday's 3-1 victory over the Astros. He allowed a hit and no walks while striking out one over a scoreless inning.
Analisi
Munoz needed 14 pitches (11 strikes) to close out the Astros, with a two-out single from Jose Altuve representing the lone baserunner in a clean ninth inning. Widely regarded as one of the best closers in baseball, the hard-throwing right-hander's numbers haven't been particularly pretty early in 2026, though a five-run implosion against the Padres on April 15 has played a major role in inflating his season statistics. Through 16 innings (17 appearances), Munoz owns a 5.63 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with a 3-3 record, 26:7 K:BB and eight saves.

Takes loss Tuesday
Munoz (3-3) took the loss Tuesday against Atlanta, allowing a run on one hit and a walk in one inning. He struck out two.
Analisi
Entering with the game tied 2-2 in the ninth inning, Munoz promptly gave up a leadoff, go-ahead homer to Matt Olson. It's already the third long ball surrendered by Munoz this season after he gave up just two in 62.1 innings last year. It's been a shaky start to the campaign for Munoz, who sports a 6.00 ERA with a 1.40 WHIP and 25:7 K:BB across 15 innings while converting seven of his nine save chances.
