Fried didn't factor into the decision in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Phillies, giving up three runs on nine hits over six innings. He struck out eight without walking a batter.

The southpaw tossed 69 of 103 pitches for strikes en route to his sixth quality start in his last seven outings and his 15th of the season. However, Fried got denied his 11th win when A.J. Minter served up a game-winning homer to Bryson Stott in the bottom of the eighth inning. Fried will take a 2.73 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 117:22 K:BB through 125.1 innings into his next start.

Lodolo (3-3) picked up the win in Monday's 11-2 rout of the Marlins, giving up two unearned runs on five hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out nine.

The nine punchouts were a career high for the rookie, and the quality start was his first in seven trips to the mound in the big leagues. Lodolo sports an impressive 30.5 percent strikeout rate through his first 32.1 innings for the Reds, but his 4.73 ERA and 1.67 WHIP haven't kept pace.

Rogers (4-10) took the loss Monday as the Marlins were routed 11-2 by the Reds, coughing up six runs on eight hits and two walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out five.

Miami gave the southpaw an early 1-0 lead, but it evaporated quickly. Rogers managed only six swinging strikes among his 84 pitches, and he hasn't produced a quality start since late April. He'll take a 5.85 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 83:41 K:BB through 87.2 innings into his next outing.

Ashby (2-8) took the loss against Colorado on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out nine batters over 7.0 innings.

Ashby racked up 17 swinging strikes and completed a season-high seven innings in the contest, but he got no support from his offense and ended up with his eighth loss. This was nonetheless a positive performance for the left-hander, as he notched his first quality start since May 30. Ashby's 4.38 ERA on the season reflects the inconsistent nature of his campaign, but he has shown flashes of his potential with 92 strikeouts over 76.0 innings.

Freeland (5-7) earned the win over Milwaukee on Monday, allowing four hits and one walk while striking out seven batters over seven scoreless innings.

The Brewers managed only four hits -- all of which were singles -- against the veteran left-hander, and no Milwaukee batter reached second base until the ninth inning. Freeland threw 58 of 99 pitches for strikes and finished with his most punchouts since May 18 -- a span of 10 starts. He entered Monday having allowed 15 runs in 16 innings in July, so this was a nice bounce-back in his first start of the second half. Freeland still carries a mediocre 4.64 ERA on the campaign.

Gonsolin (11-1) took the loss Monday versus the Nationals. He allowed four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out four in six innings.

After allowing no more than three runs or two earned runs in his first 16 starts, Gonsolin has been tagged for nine runs in 11 innings on either side of the All-Star break. His undefeated run came to an end Monday, as he was responsible for all of the Nationals' fifth-inning rally. The loss was the right-hander's first in over a calendar year -- his last one was July 19, 2021 against the Giants. Despite the recent regression, he still has a 2.26 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 90:27 K:BB across 99.2 innings. He'll look to get back on track in his next start, though it's projected to be a tough road outing in Colorado this weekend.

Kelly (10-5) earned the win Monday over the Giants. He allowed only three hits while striking out seven over eight scoreless innings.

Kelly kept runs off the board for the first time since June 8 and the fifth time in his 20 starts. This was arguably his best outing of the season, as he racked up 10 whiffs and threw 61 of 99 pitches for strikes. The right-hander has won three straight starts and has turned in quality starts in all five of his appearances in July. He owns a 3.04 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 96:36 K:BB across 118.1 innings this year. He's lined up for a road start in Atlanta this weekend.

Brubaker yielded two runs on eight hits and two walks over six innings in Monday's loss to the Cubs. He struck out four and did not factor in the decision.

Brubaker gave up an RBI single to Nico Hoerner in the second inning followed by a solo home run from Rafael Ortega in the third, breaking his streak of five straight starts without allowing a homer. The 28-year-old righty has allowed three or fewer runs in seven of his last eight outings; in the process, he's lowered his season ERA to 3.96, the first time all year that it's dipped below 4.00. Brubaker will carry a 101:42 K:BB into his projected home outing against the Phillies this weekend.

Small will start Tuesday's game against the Twins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Small is slated to make the second start of his big-league career after a shaky debut earlier in 2022. He's expected to remain in the starting five past Tuesday's outing barring any significant changes to Milwaukee's pitching plans.

Gore left Monday's game against Detroit with left elbow soreness, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Gore will likely be monitored closely over the next few days to determine his availability moving forward. He'll be considered day-to-day until further notice.
