Bradish (3-7) allowed five runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk with three strikeouts in 4.2 innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Blue Jays.

Bradish gave up three runs over the first two innings, then put two runners aboard in the fifth that Jake Reed allowed to score on Raimel Tapia's three-run double. Bradish has quality starts in three of his last five outings, but the two that weren't quality both came against Toronto. The rookie right-hander owns a 5.05 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 93:37 K:BB through 101.2 innings across 20 starts this year. He's lined up for an even tougher start at home versus Houston next week.

Berrios (11-5) earned the win Saturday, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings against the Orioles. He struck out three.

Berrios surrendered a two-run single to Gunnar Henderson to cut the Orioles' deficit to one in the third inning. The righty's last nine starts have been inconsistent, as he has allowed four runs or more in three of them and two earned runs or fewer in the other six. In addition, the 28-year-old has thrown six innings or more in six of those games and four innings or fewer in two.

Bieber (11-8) gave up one run on four hits and zero walks while striking out six in eight innings Saturday against the Twins. He picked up the win.

Bieber was in complete control, save for a solo home run from rookie Matt Wallner in the eighth inning on a hanging breaking ball. He has given up exactly one earned run in five of his last six starts. Bieber is on pace to make his next start in Chicago against the White Sox next week.

Montas (shoulder) won't make his next start on normal rest, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

Montas is undergoing an MRI on his shoulder following Friday's start against Milwaukee, and the results of his examination will help determine whether he requires a trip to the injured list. Regardless of whether he lands on the IL, he'll require at least a few additional days of rest prior to making his next start. Domingo German will likely rejoin the Yankees' rotation late next week.

Montas will undergo an MRI on his shoulder, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

Montas started Friday's series opener in Milwaukee and allowed four runs on four hits and four walks while striking out two in 3.1 innings. He felt something in his shoulder after the game, but he's optimistic that he isn't dealing with a serious injury. A better idea of his status going forward will likely be revealed once the results of his MRI are known.

Cueto was scratched from his scheduled start Saturday against the Tigers due to illness, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Cueto's absence complicates an already difficult starting pitching situation for the White Sox. Michael Kopech hit the injured list earlier Saturday with shoulder inflammation, with Davis Martin getting called up in his place. Martin will take Cueto's scheduled Saturday start, but that leaves Kopech's scheduled turn Sunday unfilled. If Cueto's illness is a minor one, it's possible he's pushed back just one day, but it's also possible he misses an entire turn in the rotation, forcing the White Sox to call up another arm or go with a bullpen game.

Martin will start Saturday's game against the Tigers, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Martin was called up Saturday, and he'll immediately draw a start after Johnny Cueto (illness) was scratched from his scheduled start. Martin threw an inning at Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, so it's possible that he's on a pitch count during Saturday's outing.

Kopech was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to shoulder inflammation, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Kopech has yet to be officially ruled out for the season, per James Fegan of The Athletic, but it's certainly possible that he's done for the year. The team has no long-term concerns regarding the injury, but whether or not he makes it back depends on how his shoulder responds when he plays catch next week, and on if the White Sox are still in the playoff hunt when he's eligible to return. Even if Kopech does pitch again this season, it may be for only a single start. Davis Martin was recalled to take his place in the rotation.

Martin was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Martin was sent down by the White Sox in early September, but he'll rejoin the big-league club after Michael Kopech (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday. Martin has made 10 appearances (five starts) for the White Sox this year and has posted a 4.09 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 44 innings. Kopech was slated to start Sunday against the Tigers, and it's not yet clear whether Martin will immediately take his place in the rotation since he tossed an inning at Charlotte on Thursday.

Montas gave up four earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out two over 3.1 innings in a 7-6 loss to the Brewers on Friday. He did not factor into the decision.

Montas has struggled immensely since coming over to the Yankees and his unusual bout of ineffectiveness continued in Milwaukee. The major damage in this contest came on a three-run homer by Willy Adames in the second inning. Montas has now issued eight free passes over his past two starts and has a miserable 6.35 ERA in eight starts as a Yankee. He will look to rectify his control problems and get back to the pitcher he was in Oakland his next time out against the Red Sox.
