One shutout owned Monday. The Mets still won the team board.
September 7, 2026 was an 11-game Monday, and the loudest pitching line did not need a bullpen. Jesús Luzardo threw a two-hit shutout with 12 strikeouts in Philadelphia. The game lasted 1 hour, 51 minutes. Kyle Schwarber hit the only run.
The team board went a different direction. The New York Mets scored nine in Miami and posted the day's best AthX Engine team score. Henry Bolte led hitters with a homer, three walks, and three steals in a walk-off win. Those three facts do not contradict each other. They are Monday.
Top team fantasy scores (Monday, September 7, 2026)
| Rank | Team | AthX Engine FP | Final | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | New York Mets | 17 | 9-4 | Mets at Marlins |
| 2 | Los Angeles Dodgers | 12 | 6-3 | Dodgers vs Reds |
| 3 | Boston Red Sox | 11 | 5-2 | Red Sox vs Angels |
| 4 | Baltimore Orioles | 11 | 6-4 | Orioles vs Guardians |
| 5 | Athletics | 10 | 6-5 | Athletics vs Blue Jays |
| 6 | Detroit Tigers | 9 | 5-4 | Home win over Minnesota |
| 7 | Arizona Diamondbacks | 9 | 5-4 | Five runs in the 10th at Kansas City |
| 8 | San Francisco Giants | 9 | 5-4 | Walk-off in the 11th vs St. Louis |
| 9 | Milwaukee Brewers | 8 | 4-3 | Eighth-inning rally vs Chicago Cubs |
| 10 | San Diego Padres | 7 | 3-2 | Pivetta's return from the IL |
The Phillies beat Atlanta 1-0 and still finished with 5 team FP. That is the Luzardo problem in team scoring: a shutout with one run does not fill a team table the way nine runs in Miami do. The Mets sit first because they scored nine and kept scoring after Miami's three-run second.
Top pitchers (AthX Engine, September 7, 2026)

| 5 | Emmet Sheehan | Dodgers | 19.66 | 5.2 IP, 1 R, 3 H, 10 K, 1 BB |
| 6 | Logan Webb | Giants | 19 | 6.0 IP, 1 R, 3 H, 8 K, 2 BB |
| 7 | Brayan Bello | Red Sox | 18 | 5.0 IP, 0 R, 4 H, 7 K, 2 BB |
| 8 | Nick Pivetta | Padres | 17 | 5.0 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 2 K, 0 BB |
| 9 | Matthew Boyd | Cubs | 15 | 7.0 IP, 3 R, 5 H, 7 K, 2 BB |
| 10 | Chase Burns | Reds | 13 | 3.0 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 5 K, 1 BB |
Luzardo at 44 FP is not a close race. A complete-game shutout with 12 strikeouts and one walk is a different conversation from everyone else's six-inning quality start. Holmes threw six shutout innings in the same game and still sits 23 FP behind him. Cameron threw six scoreless at Kauffman and took a no-decision after Arizona scored five in the 10th. Boyd worked seven innings and lost 4-3 when Milwaukee scored three in the eighth.
Top hitters (AthX Engine, September 7, 2026)
| Rank | Player | Pos | Team | AthX Engine FP | Line |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Henry Bolte | OF | Athletics | 17 | 1 HR, 3 BB, 3 SB, 3 R |
| 2 | Pete Crow-Armstrong | OF | Cubs | 13 | 1 HR (41st), 2 R, 2 SB |
| 3 | Teoscar Hernández | OF | Dodgers | 12 | 1 HR, 3 RBI, 1 SB |
| 4 | Coby Mayo | 1B | Orioles | 11 | 2 HR, 3 RBI |
| 5 | Riley Greene | OF | Tigers | 9 | 3-for-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI |
| 6 | Zack Gelof | 2B | Athletics | 9 | 2B, 2 RBI, 2 SB |
| 7 | Moisés Ballesteros | 1B | Angels | 9 | 3-for-4, 1 HR, 1 2B |
| 8 | Andrés Giménez | 2B | Blue Jays | 8 | 1 HR, 1 2B, 2 RBI |
| 9 | Kazuma Okamoto | 3B | Blue Jays | 8 | 1 HR (29th), 2 BB |
| 10 | Nathaniel Lowe | 1B | Guardians | 8 | PH 3-run HR in the 9th |
Bolte's night was on-base value with a homer attached. Crow-Armstrong hit his 41st and stole two in a 4-3 loss at Milwaukee. Mayo's two homers snapped Baltimore's six-game skid. Lowe's pinch-hit three-run shot in the ninth made a 6-1 game 6-4 and still left Cleveland short.

What stood out
Luzardo's 44 FP is the card. Complete games this clean do not show up every Monday, and Holmes throwing six shutout innings on the other side makes the 1-0 even stranger. The Phillies still sit four back in the NL East after splitting the series.
The hitter board belonged to a player who walked three times and stole three bases, not only to the two-homer nights. Bolte's 17 FP is why AthX Engine scoring cares about more than the long ball. Crow-Armstrong's 41st homer in a loss is the other September note: the Cubs keep getting production from the middle of the order and keep dropping one-run games.
