Peralta did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two runs on two hits and three walks over six innings in a 5-2 victory over Pittsburgh. He struck out nine.

Peralta recorded at least nine strikeouts for just the third time this season and notched his eighth quality start of the year. Despite the strong outing Sunday, the right-hander continues to struggle with the long ball, allowing at least one home run in seven straight appearances (10 total). During that stretch, Peralta holds a 6.06 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 4.0 BB/9, but he's still been striking batters out at high rate, totaling 38 strikeouts over his last 35.2 innings (9.6 K/9). Peralta remains a steady part of Milwaukee's rotation, and his next start is lined up for a road matchup against the Guardians.

Quintana (ribs) gave up two unearned runs on two hits over 3.1 innings for Single-A St. Lucie on Sunday. He struck out four without walking a batter.

Saturday's game between St. Lucie and Palm Beach was suspended after one inning due to rain, so Quintana took the mound for the second inning when play resumed Sunday rather than starting the officially scheduled contest later in the day. The 34-year-old southpaw built up to 46 pitches (30 strikes), and assuming he stays on schedule his next rehab outing would come Friday, likely against stiffer competition. Quintana has yet to make his Mets debut after signing a two-year, $26 million contract with the team in the offseason, but he appears to be on track to join the big-league rotation in early July.

Wesneski allowed one run across three innings of relief in Sunday's loss to the Orioles. He gave up three hits and struck out two.

Wesneski covered the last three innings of the game in a long-relief role and kept the Cubs around in an eventual 6-3 defeat. The righty has bookended two good appearances around two bad performances his last four games, giving him a 5.65 ERA across 14.1 innings in the span. That includes allowing five runs over three innings his last time out June 11. For the season, Wesneski is sitting with a 5.20 ERA. He may be able to reenter the rotation at some point, though for now he figures to keep working as a long reliever, which limits his fantasy appeal.

Webb (6-6) allowed two runs on eight hits and two walks over seven innings Sunday, striking out five and earning a win over the Dodgers.

Webb tossed three scoreless frames before the Dodgers plated a run in each of the fourth and fifth innings. It was the first time he allowed fewer than three runs since May 27, and he dropped his season ERA to 3.11. After starting the year 0-4, Webb is 6-2 with a 2.53 ERA over his last 11 starts. He'll carry a 96:19 K:BB into his next start, which is projected to be at home against the Diamondbacks.

Gonsolin (4-2) yielded seven runs on six hits and three walks over 5.2 innings Sunday, striking out seven and taking a loss against the Giants.

Gonsolin looked strong through three perfect frames before things began to unravel. While it was his first time allowing more than three runs in an outing this year, he also racked up a season-high seven punchouts. Gonsolin had registered a 1.93 ERA while going 4-0 over his previous six starts before Sunday. Despite the poor outing, Gonsolin is sporting a 2.92 ERA with a 43:21 K:BB across 10 starts. His next start is lined up to be at home against the Astros.

Davies (1-3) allowed nine runs (eight earned) on nine hits and a walk while striking out two over 3.2 innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Guardians.

Davies has hit a brutal skid, allowing 15 runs (12 earned) over 6.2 innings across his last two starts. He's completed six innings just once in seven appearances this season, and he's lost three of his five starts since returning from an oblique injury. The right-hander now has a 7.11 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 28:14 K:BB through 31.2 innings on the year. He'll look to get back on track in a projected road start versus the surging Giants.

Morton (6-6) earned the win Sunday, allowing five runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks over five innings against Colorado. He struck out eight.

Morton got off to a shaky start, allowing five runs in the first two innings. However, he'd hold the Rockies at bay from there as Atlanta eventually rallied to win 14-6. The 39-year-old Morton has logged eight or more strikeouts in five of his last seven starts. He now sports a 3.71 ERA with a 1.45 WHIP and 93:36 K:BB through 14 starts (80 innings) this season. He's slated for a road matchup with the Reds in his next outing.

Anderson (0-1) took the loss Sunday, allowing seven runs on seven hits and four walks over three innings in a 14-6 loss to Atlanta. He struck out two.

Things quickly went south for Anderson after he was staked to a 5-0 lead. He'd eventually surrender seven runs, six coming on a pair of three-run homers. The veteran right-hander now has a 9.24 ERA over his last three starts (12.2 innings) after pitching to a 1.69 mark through his first 26.2 innings this year. Overall, Anderson's ERA is up to 4.12 with a 1.25 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB through seven starts (39.1 innings) this season. He's currently in line for a home matchup with the Angels in his next outing.

Musgrove (5-2) allowed two runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one over six innings to earn the win Sunday over the Rays.

Musgrove turned in his fourth quality start of the year on an efficient 85 pitches (61 strikes) while keeping the Rays' challenging offense in check. The right-hander has given up just eight runs (seven earned) over his last 29.1 innings, trimming his ERA from 6.75 on May 20 to 4.22 now. He's added a 1.31 WHIP and 48:15 K:BB through 53.1 innings across 10 starts. Musgrove is still managing elbow bursitis, but it doesn't appear to be negatively impacting his play of late. He's lined up to make his next start at home versus the Nationals.

Wheeler (6-4) earned the win Sunday over the Athletics, allowing six hits and two walks while striking out four over six scoreless innings.

Wheeler's been very strong over his last three starts, allowing just two runs (one earned) on 11 hits and four walks with 19 strikeouts in 19.1 innings in that span. This was his second win in a row, though Sunday's outing was also the first time since April 23 that he's walked multiple batters. The veteran right-hander is at a 3.48 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 98:20 K:BB through 88 innings across 15 starts this season. Wheeler is lined up to make his next start at home versus his old team, the Mets.
