  • Quinn Priester SP | MIL

    Brewers' Quinn Priester: Earns ninth win

    Priester (9-2) earned the win Wednesday against the Mariners, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out six.

    Priester gave up a pair of runs in the second inning, but he'd stop the damage there, blanking Seattle over his final five frames en route to his third straight win. The 24-year-old Priester has delivered quality starts in four of his last five outings. His ERA is down to 3.28 with a 1.20 WHIP and 86:34 K:BB across 101.2 innings this season. Priester will look to keep rolling in his next start, tentatively scheduled for next week against the Cubs.

  • Andre Pallante SP | STL

    Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Falls to Rockies

    Pallante (5-7) took the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out five.

    It was another tough outing for Pallante, who gave up four runs in the second inning of an eventual 6-0 loss. The right-hander has now allowed 17 earned runs across just 15.2 innings in his last three starts. Pallante's ERA is up to 4.91 through 20 starts (110 innings) this season, to go along with a 1.37 WHIP and 72:36 K:BB.

  • Tanner Gordon SP | COL

    Rockies' Tanner Gordon: Blanks Cards in return

    Gordon (2-2) earned the win Wednesday over the Cardinals, allowing four hits and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out three.

    Gordon was excellent in his first major-league start since May 28, scattering six hits to earn his second win in a 6-0 shutout. The 27-year-old Gordon has pitched to a 3.13 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB across his first four starts (23 innings) this season. The right-hander figures to remain in Colorado's rotation moving forward after German Marquez (biceps) landed on the IL. Gordon is currently lined up to face the Guardians on the road in his next outing.

  • Sean Manaea SP | NYM

    Mets' Sean Manaea: Pockets first win of 2025

    Manaea (1-1) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over five innings in a 6-3 victory over the Angels. He struck out five.

    The veteran southpaw collected his first win of the season while lasting at least five innings for the first time in three starts since coming off the IL, building up to 82 pitches (56 strikes). Manaea has given up only one run in each of those outings, leaving him with a 2.19 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB through his first 12.1 innings of 2025. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week in San Diego.

  • Pirates' Bailey Falter: Ties career high with eight Ks

    Falter (7-5) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on four hits over seven innings in a 6-1 victory over the Tigers. He struck out eight without walking a batter.

    The southpaw delivered his first quality start since May 31 on an efficient 87 pitches (63 strikes) as he tied his career high in strikeouts. Falter has struggled since the beginning of June, and even after Wednesday's performance he carries a 4.89 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 28:13 K:BB over his last nine starts and 42.1 innings. He'll look to build on this effort in his next outing, which lines up to come on the road early next week in San Francisco.

  • Dylan Cease SP | SD

    Padres' Dylan Cease: Solid effort in loss

    Cease (3-10) took the loss against the Marlins on Wednesday, allowing three runs (two earned) on four hits and three walks with five strikeouts over five innings.

    Cease allowed a run in the first inning and a two-run homer in the fifth that ultimately saddled him with the loss. The 29-year-old threw just 56 of 95 pitches for strikes but has now turned in back-to-back solid starts after giving up 10 earned runs across his first two July outings. He'll carry a 4.59 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 144:42 K:BB over 113.2 innings into a home matchup with the Mets next week.

  • Marlins' Sandy Alcantara: Goes seven strong in win

    Alcantara (5-9) earned the win against the Padres on Wednesday, allowing one unearned run on four hits and no walks with four strikeouts over seven innings.

    Alcantara threw 67 of 98 pitches for strikes and generated 11 whiffs in his longest outing of the season. It was a step in the right direction after the 29-year-old allowed 22 earned runs over his previous four starts, though he's now failed to record more than four strikeouts in six straight. He'll carry a 6.66 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 77:39 K:BB across 104 innings into a road matchup with the Cardinals next week.

  • Braves' Spencer Strider: Lacks command in loss

    Strider (4-8) took the loss against the Giants on Wednesday, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over five innings.

    Strider was tagged for two homers in the fifth inning and managed just one clean frame, throwing only 59 of 104 pitches for strikes. It ends a run of four straight quality starts for the 26-year-old, though he's still allowed three earned runs or fewer in nine consecutive outings. He'll take a 3.72 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 89:30 K:BB over 72.2 innings into a road matchup with the Royals next week.

  • Giants' Justin Verlander: Earns first win with Giants

    Verlander (1-8) earned the win against Atlanta on Wednesday, allowing one hit and five walks while striking out three over five scoreless innings.

    Verlander threw just 55 of 98 pitches for strikes and issued five walks for the second time this season, but he battled to earn his first win in 17 starts. It also marked the 42-year-old's first scoreless outing of the year, snapping a three-start stretch in which he allowed 14 runs (12 earned) over 11.2 innings. On the season, he owns a 4.70 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 70:33 K:BB across 84.1 frames and lines up for a home matchup with the Pirates next week.

  • Mike Soroka RP | CHC

    Nationals' Michael Soroka: Suffers tough-luck loss

    Soroka (3-8) took the loss against the Reds on Wednesday, allowing one run on two hits and three walks with six strikeouts over 5.2 innings.

    Soroka gave up a run on a single in the fourth inning, but that proved to be all the Reds would need as Nick Lodolo spun a complete-game shutout. Since allowing seven runs to the Red Sox on July 4, Soroka has yielded just four earned runs over his last three outings. He'll carry a 4.85 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 83:24 K:BB across 78 innings into a road matchup with the Astros next week.
