Quintana yielded three runs on five hits and three walks over four innings in Sunday's win over Washington. He struck out two and did not factor in the decision.

All three runs allowed by Quintana came during the second inning when he coughed up RBI singles to Riley Adams and Victor Robles. The veteran southpaw saw his ERA rise to 3.86 through 9.1 innings. He's also sporting an uninspiring 5:5 K:BB and 1.61 WHIP. Quintana is lined up to start at Wrigley Field against the Cubs next week.

Corbin allowed two runs on three hits and three walks over 5.1 frames in Sunday's loss to the Pirates. He struck out four and did not factor in the decision.

Corbin fired five shutout innings before stumbling in the sixth. He loaded the bases with one out and was charged with two runs after he was replaced by Victor Arano. The veteran lefty now owns a 7.50 ERA through 12 innings this season. Corbin is expected to face the Giants at home next week.

Mahle (1-1) was handed the loss during Saturday's 9-1 defeat at the hands of the Dodgers, allowing seven runs on seven hits and two walks with five strikeouts in 3.2 innings.

Mahle started strong by facing 10 batters total through the first three innings, but Los Angeles got to him in the fourth with seven runs and eight baserunners before he was pulled. It was a disastrous third start for the 28-year-old, who performed well in his first two starts, though he's now failed to make it past five innings in any appearance. He's currently slated to take the mound against the Cardinals on Saturday for his next start.

Wood (1-0) allowed four hits and two walks over five scoreless innings Sunday, striking out five and earning a win over Cleveland.

Wood never found himself in much danger Sunday; only two Guardians reached scoring position and he gave up just one extra-base hit. He tossed 59 of 87 pitches for strikes and forced eight whiffs. The 31-year-old southpaw is now sporting a 1.93 ERA through 9.1 innings. Wood is expected to take the mound in Washington next week.

Heaney (1-0) registered the win during Sunday's 9-1 victory over Cincinnati, allowing three walks and a hit with 11 strikeouts in six scoreless innings.

Heaney overpowered a rebuilding Reds team while putting his strikeout upside on full display, scattering four baserunners across six easy innings while staying under 90 pitches. The 30-year-old has yet to surrender an earned run through 10.1 innings while placing among the league leaders with 16 strikeouts. He's currently slated to pitch Saturday in San Diego for his next start.

Wheeler (0-2) took the loss, allowing seven runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out three over three innings in an 11-3 loss Sunday in Miami.

After Wheeler pitched a scoreless first inning, the first four Miami batters reached safely and scored in the second. The Marlins tacked on another run in the third, and after the first three batters reached in the fourth, Wheeler was removed. Typically a pitcher with great command, the 2021 All-Star has walked four batters and hit three more in 7.2 innings this season. He will look to bounce back in his next scheduled start, Saturday against Milwaukee.

The Padres list Gore as their probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Reds in San Diego, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

With both Blake Snell (groin) and Mike Clevinger (knee) set to remain on the injured list during the upcoming week, Gore will receive at least one more turn through San Diego's rotation. The 23-year-old lefty didn't make many bats miss (three strikeouts) in his MLB debut Friday, but he did well to limit a potent Atlanta offense to two runs on three hits and two walks over 5.1 innings while taking a no-decision.

Clevinger (knee) is on track to make his second minor-league rehab start Tuesday for Triple-A El Paso, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Tuesday's start could be the final one of Clevinger's rehab assignment, especially if he's able to build on the solid two-inning, five-strikeout performance he turned in for Low-A Lake Elsinore on Thursday. Clevinger tossed 31 pitches in the start for Lake Elsinore, so the Padres will presumably want to see him reach the 50-pitch mark Tuesday to put himself in consideration for a return from the 10-day injured list during the final week of April.

Snell (groin) is in line to throw a bullpen session Tuesday, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Though Snell wasn't able to avoid the injured list due to his left groin injury, he could be in store for a minimum-length stay on the shelf if his throwing session Tuesday goes according to plan. However, with Snell due to miss a second straight turn through the rotation Wednesday versus the Reds, rookie MacKenzie Gore will pick up at least one more start.

Walker (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Sunday, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

Although Walker was able to throw a bullpen after playing catch Thursday and Friday, manager Buck Showalter said afterward that the right-hander will likely require more than one rehab start prior to rejoining the major-league club. The Mets haven't yet revealed when his rehab assignment will begin, but it's possible that he'll be able to return to the majors sometime in early May.
