Burrows (1-4) allowed six runs on five hits and three walks over 4.2 innings Tuesday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Giants.

Burrows got through two frames unscathed before the Giants started teeing off. He gave up three home runs, including a two-run shot to Christian Koss in the third inning. Willy Adames ended Burrows' night with a two-run homer in the fifth. Burrows was tagged for six runs against Minnesota on July 11 but had since given up only three runs over 17 innings before Tuesday's ugly outing. It was also the first time in his career that he allowed more than two home runs in an appearance. Burrows owns a 4.45 ERA with a 63:24 K:BB through 62.2 innings. He's projected to face the Reds at home this weekend.

Webb (10-8) allowed a run on seven hits over six innings Tuesday, striking out 10 and earning a win over Pittsburgh.

Webb's final line was impressive, but he needed 110 pitches (74 strikes) to record 18 outs. He gave up a run in the third inning but otherwise kept the Pirates' offense quiet. Webb has faced Pittsburgh in two consecutive outings, combining for 21 punchouts and two earned runs across 11.2 innings. Prior to that, he had allowed 16 total runs in his previous three starts. Webb is now sporting a 3.24 ERA with a 165:34 K:BB across 147.1 frames this season. He's currently in line for a home matchup against the Padres next week.

Littell (9-8) earned the win Tuesday against the Cubs, allowing one run on three hits and two walks in seven innings. He struck out eight.

Littell shined in his Reds debut, fanning a season-high eight and delivering his second start of season with at least seven innings while surrendering one run or fewer. The 29-year-old right-hander generated 16 whiffs on the evening, and his streak of starts with at least five frames was also extended to 20 on Tuesday. There may be some concerns regarding his fantasy appeal when he needs to work at homer-friendly Great American Ball Park, as Littell has served up an MLB-high 27 home runs, but his next appearance is slated for this weekend in Pittsburgh. Through 140.1 innings, Littell has a 3.46 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 97:23 K.

Imanaga didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Reds, allowing one run on three hits and no walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out seven.

After giving up 10 runs over his prior two starts, Imanaga rediscovered his top form Tuesday. It was the fourth time in his last six outings that the star left-hander pitched at least six innings while yielding two runs or fewer, and the seven strikeouts were only one short of the season high that he set his last time out in Milwaukee. Imanaga sports a 3.12 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 70:17 K:BB across 89.1 frames, and he's set to face a tough test next week in Toronto against the first-place Blue Jays.

The Padres optioned Sears to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

Sears did not impress for his new team in Monday's loss versus the Diamondbacks, in which he surrendered five runs across five innings. With the starter's demotion Tuesday, the Padres recalled reliever Sean Reynolds.

The Pirates optioned Oviedo to Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.

Oviedo returned from the 60-day injured list Monday to make his first appearance in the big leagues since Sept. 27, 2023, after he missed time while recovering from Tommy John surgery and then a lat strain. Though he escaped with a no-decision in the Pirates' 5-4 win over the Giants, Oviedo was inefficient in his start, needing 43 pitches to complete one inning while serving up two earned runs on two hits and three walks. He'll head back to Triple-A as he looks to hone his command following the lengthy layoff from big-league action and will be replaced on the 26-man active roster by right-hander Cam Sanders, who will provide the bullpen with some reinforcement after the Pirates needed four relievers to cover the final eight frames of Monday's contest. The Pirates have yet to announce who will replace Oviedo in the rotation the next time his turn comes up Saturday versus the Reds.

The Cubs placed Soroka on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a right shoulder strain, Mike McGraw of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.

The right-hander was removed from Monday's start against the Reds due to shoulder discomfort, with manager Craig Counsell saying after the game that an IL stint would be necessary. Soroka will be eligible to be reinstated Aug. 20, though it wouldn't be surprising if a longer absence is necessary given the nature of the injury.

The Rockies optioned Palmquist to Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Palmquist really struggled in two relief appearances during his most recent stint in the majors, allowing eight runs on 10 hits and seven walks over 3.2 innings. He'll likely go back into the rotation at Albuquerque.

Misiorowski (tibia) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The Brewers exercised caution in placing Misiorowski on the 15-day injured list over the weekend with a left tibia contusion. However, barring any setbacks, the prized young right-hander will be back in the big-league rotation when first eligible Aug. 15 in Cincinnati.

The Reds placed Lodolo on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left index finger blister.

Lodolo had to be lifted from Monday's start against the Cubs in the second inning after the blister flared up. He has dealt with blister problems before, so the Reds want to be cautious rather than rushing the southpaw back. Lodolo will be eligible for activation Aug. 20 and should have a good chance of being ready by that date. Nick Martinez is expected to take Lodolo's spot in the Cincinnati rotation.
