Michael Burrows SP | PIT
Pirates' Mike Burrows: Fans six in no-decision
Burrows didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Marlins after giving up two runs on four hits and three walks in 4.1 innings. He struck out six.
Burrows tied his season high in punchouts, but he did issue a season-high three free passes. The 25-year-old right-hander has yet to deliver a quality start or even reach the sixth inning in any of his four outings, but he has conceded just two runs to go with an encouraging 12:3 K:BB over his last 9.2 innings. Burrows has a 5.00 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 17:7 K:BB through 18 frames overall, and he's in for a difficult assignment his next time out against the first-place Cubs.

Eury Perez SP | MIA
Marlins' Eury Perez: Shaky in season debut
Perez dropped to 0-1 in Monday's 10-3 loss to the Pirates after giving up four runs on four hits and two walks while striking out five over three innings.
Perez was likely operating with a restricted workload in his first major-league start since 2023 after completing his long road back from Tommy John surgery. Though Perez had some shaky command in his 2025 MLB debut, he touched 99 miles per hour with his fastball on eight of his 70 pitches. The Pirates did all of their damage against him in a four-run third inning, when they got five consecutive hitters to reach base to begin the frame. Perez possesses plenty of swing-and-miss stuff, but it could take him some time to settle back in at the big-league level. He'll try to stretch out a bit further in his next outing, currently projected for this Sunday against the Nationals.

Blake Snell SP | LAD
Dodgers' Blake Snell: Bullpen session on tap
Snell (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Snell made about 10 throws off a mound over the weekend to a standing catcher, per Plunkett, and he's now ready to take the next step in his throwing progression by completing what the Dodgers are terming as a "touch-and-feel" bullpen session. The lefty hasn't tossed from a mound since experiencing a setback in late April, so he'll likely need to make it through at least a few side sessions before facing live hitters.

Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD
Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Trending in right direction
Glasnow (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Tuesday in Los Angeles, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
Glasnow has been moving in the right direction since it was reported at the end of May that he was experiencing general body soreness after throwing. "He's doing really well," stated manager Dave Roberts. "Very excited and anxious to start facing some hitters. So that's coming too." If all goes well during Glasnow's side session, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him gain clearance for live BP later in the week.

Emmet Sheehan SP | LAD
Dodgers' Emmet Sheehan: Continuing to ramp up
Sheehan (elbow) is expected to work at least four innings during his next rehab start, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Sheehan has looked solid during his time in the minors, working three frames in each of his last two appearances at Triple-A Oklahoma City. The right-hander may only need to make one more start at Triple-A before the club considers activating him from the 60-day IL, as skipper Dave Roberts stated Monday that there could be a conversation about adding Sheehan to the big-league rotation following his next rehab appearance.

Michael King SP | SD
Padres' Michael King: Not making much progress
King (shoulder) is still resting and hasn't yet been able to ramp up his throwing, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.
The team is prescribing rest as the main method of rehab for King, who was placed on the 15-day injured list May 25 due to a pinched nerve in his throwing shoulder. While he reportedly started to play light catch one week ago, manager Mike Shildt noted that the club is still looking into the best way forward for the right-hander. "We're just in a holding pattern to see what it is and the best way to treat it, if there is a better way to treat it outside of just the rest," said Shildt. It would seem that King is still weeks away from a return, though an official timetable has yet to be established.

Tyler Stuart SP | WAS
Nationals' Tyler Stuart: Back from minor-league IL
Stuart (elbow) allowed four runs on four hits and four walks while striking out five over 3.2 innings Thursday against Double-A Reading.
Stuart began the season on the 7-day injured list due to an elbow injury, and he's back at Double-A after completing his rehab assignment. He looked a bit rusty in his first appearance for the Senators this season but should get an opportunity to bounce back later in the week.

Connor Gillispie SP | MIN
Marlins' Connor Gillispie: Returning to Triple-A
The Marlins optioned Gillispie to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
Gillispie was recalled by the Marlins on Saturday but did not make an appearance for the big club. He'll return to Triple-A, where he has a 2-0 record across six games (five starts) with a 4.38 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 17:12 K:BB in 24.2 innings. The move makes room on the 26-man roster for Eury Perez (elbow), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list.

Eury Perez SP | MIA
Marlins' Eury Perez: Reinstated from IL
Perez (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list ahead of Monday's game against the Pirates.
Perez has fully recovered from Tommy John surgery that caused him to miss the entire 2024 season and the first two-plus months of 2025. He finished his rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville, and across three outings he posted a 2.13 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 12.2 innings. Perez had a 5-6 record across 19 starts with the Marlins during the 2023 regular season with a 3.15 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 108:31 K:BB across 91.1 innings. Connor Gillispie was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville and Ryan Weathers (lat) was placed on the 60-day IL in order to make room on the 26-man roster for Perez.

Ryan Weathers SP | MIA
Marlins' Ryan Weathers: Lands on 60-day IL with lat strain
The Marlins placed Weathers on the 60-day injured list Monday due to a left lat strain.
Weathers flew back to Miami on Monday to be evaluated after he experienced shoulder discomfort during his most recent start Saturday against the Rays. Further tests revealed a lat strain, and the Marlins made the quick decision to place the 25-year-old southpaw on the 60-day IL rather than the 15-day IL. As a result of the transaction, Weathers won't be eligible to resume pitching for the Marlins until at least mid-August. Weathers is now on the IL for the second time this season, after he missed the first six weeks of the campaign while recovering from a left forearm injury. In a corresponding move, the Marlins activated Eury Perez (elbow) from the 60-day IL ahead of his 2025 MLB debut Monday against the Pirates.
