Schlittler (13-6) came away with the win Tuesday against the Rockies, allowing one run on three hits while striking out 10 across seven innings. He did not issue a walk.

The only blemish on Schlitter's line was a solo home run by Adael Amador in the third inning, but it was an otherwise spectacular outing for the American League Cy Young candidate. It was the fourth time this season (and third since the All-Star break) that Schlitter logged double-digit strikeouts, and he's allowed one run or zero in eight of his last nine starts. Among qualified starters this season, the Yankees right-hander ranks second in ERA (2.01), fourth in both WHIP (0.92) and opposing average (.189) and fifth in strikeouts (220) over 178.2 innings. Schlittler's next start is tentatively slated for this weekend at home against the Mets.

Sandoval (1-5) took the loss against the Angels on Tuesday, allowing four runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out seven across six innings.

It was Sandoval's first career start against the Angels, with whom he spent six seasons from 2019 to 2024. He didn't have his best stuff Tuesday, giving up at least one run in three of his six frames, and the 10 hits he allowed were his most in a start since May 12, 2024 against the Royals (11). Sandoval has taken the loss in five of his last six outings and sports a 4.58 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 57:27 K:BB over 55 innings this season. He's tentatively slated to start next week on the road against the Rangers.

Detmers (5-8) earned the win against Boston on Tuesday, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out nine across six scoreless innings.

Detmers allowed only three baserunners during his start (including a hit-by-pitch) and generated 14 whiffs on a career-high 112 pitches (73 strikes). It was seventh time this season (and third time since the All-Star break) that Detmers struck out at least nine batters, and his 191 punchouts (over 168 innings) are fourth most in the American League this season. He'll take a 3.32 ERA and 1.03 WHIP into his next start, tentatively slated for next week at home against the Mariners in what currently projects as a two-start week for the 27-year-old southpaw.

Weathers (forearm) did some flat-ground throwing from 75 feet Tuesday, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

The left-hander said after the throwing session that he feels "really good" as he works his way back from a flexor strain. Weathers is aiming to rejoin the Yankees as a reliever later this month.

Prielipp struck out five and allowed two earned runs on five hits and no walks across four innings of relief in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Tigers.

Prielipp made a second straight appearance as a bulk reliever, this time piggybacking Joe Ryan (glute), who was lifted after four innings and 66 pitches in his first start with Minnesota in more than a month following his return from the injured list. Ryan should be ready to handle a more standard workload in his next start, so unless the Twins elect to expand the rotation to six men, Prielipp could end up taking on a more flexible bullpen role over the final two weeks of the season. The Twins are looking to limit Prielipp's workload down the stretch; he's already racked up 126.2 frames between the majors and Triple-A St. Paul in 2026, a 44-inning increase from his 2025 total.

Cameron didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Diamondbacks after allowing three hits and two walks while striking out seven over six scoreless innings.

Cameron dominated Arizona and didn't allow a runner to advance beyond first base during his six innings. He lowered his ERA to 3.93 with this strong showing, and he now owns a 1.66 ERA across 59.2 innings over his last nine starts dating back to July 24. Cameron is scheduled to make his next start Sunday on the road against the Red Sox.

Rodriguez (4-7) took the loss Monday against the Red Sox after allowing five runs on six hits and four walks while striking out three over four innings.

Rodriguez escaped a bases-loaded jam in the first but couldn't repeat the feat in the second. Jarren Duran opened the inning with a solo homer before Rodriguez surrendered a three-run shot to former Orioles teammate Adley Rutschman, putting the Angels in a 4-0 hole they'd never escape from. Rodriguez's ERA climbed to 6.28 after this outing, and he's given up at least three earned runs in four of his last six starts. The 26-year-old should remain a risky fantasy option and is slated to make his next start on the road against the Nationals this weekend.

Cease allowed five runs (four earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Monday.

Cease had posted a 1.71 ERA over 58 innings spanning nine starts since the All-Star break. He found some trouble in Sacramento, though the Blue Jays' offense did enough to prevent him from taking a loss. Cease is at a 2.40 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 227:67 K:BB across 161.1 innings over 27 starts this season. The right-hander is projected to make his next start at home versus the Orioles.

Lopez allowed four runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out one over six-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Blue Jays on Monday.

Lopez had a quality start going, but he was left in too long and faded in the seventh inning. This marks the first time since July 7 where he's given more than two runs in an appearance. The 28-year-old southpaw is now at a 4.78 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 104:53 K:BB through 111 innings over 24 appearances (21 starts) this season. Lopez is projected to make his next start at home against the Mariners.

Ryan (6-9) took the loss against Detroit on Monday, allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits and one walk while striking out seven batters over four innings.

It was an uneven outing for Ryan in his return from a stint on the injured list that lasted over a month. The Tigers scored four runs against the veteran righty over the first two innings, but he managed to rebound and retired the final eight batters he faced. Ryan also flashed good swing-and-miss stuff with 12 whiffs among 66 pitches and seven punchouts. His pitch count was logically limited following the lengthy absence, but that should push up over his remaining starts. Ryan is next lined up to take the mound at home versus Cleveland.
