It was only the second time through five starts this season the left-hander has completed five innings, and he generated only seven swinging strikes on 93 pitches. Corbin has an 8.10 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 18:14 K:BB across 23.1 innings. and he'll attempt to build on this performance during next week's start.

Senzatela was hit hard in Thursday's start against the Diamondbacks, allowing three runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out three in 4.2 innings. His groin issue could have contributed to his struggles, and he'll now have additional time to recover. It's not yet clear when Senzatela could return to action, and the team hasn't announced who will take his place in the rotation. However, left-hander Lucas Gilbreath was recalled in a corresponding move and could make his major-league debut as a starter while Senzatela is sidelined.

Senzatela was placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained right groin Saturday.

The move can be backdated to Friday, making Senzatela eligible to return May 10, though it's not yet clear if he's expected to be ready by then. He's struggled to a 5.76 ERA and 1.55 WHIP through six starts this season. Lucas Gilbreath was recalled in a corresponding move.

DeGrom will get an extra day of rest and will start Tuesday against the Cardinals, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

DeGrom should still be able to make two starts next week, as he'll be lined up to face the Diamondbacks on Sunday. He's gotten extra rest twice already this season, and the setup appears to be working, as he owns a remarkable 0.51 ERA, 0.57 WHIP and 59:4 K:BB through five starts.

Strasburg (shoulder) recently threw off the bullpen mound, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

The right-hander remains on schedule in his recovery process, but the Nationals haven't yet indicated when Strasburg could return to game action.

Peralta (3-0) allowed one run on one hit and a walk while striking out seven over six innings in a 3-1 win over the Dodgers on Friday.

Peralta was absolutely dominant Friday. The 25-year-old allowed his only hit of the night when AJ Pollock homered off him to begin the fifth and managed to issue just one walk for a second straight start. The right-hander was battling for a rotation spot during spring training and has undoubtedly run away with the opportunity as he currently owns a 2.25 ERA and 45:14 K:BB over 28 innings. He's next expected to pitch on the road against the Phillies next week.

Darvish (3-1) earned the win over San Francisco on Friday, pitching 6.1 innings and allowing one run on four hits and three walks while striking out 12.

The right-hander was on his game against a surprising Giants squad, giving up only one run on a first-inning homer. Darvish set a season high with 12 strikeouts in the victory and induced 16 swings-and-misses. Since a rough outing in the season opener against Arizona, Darvish has hurled five straight quality starts, posting a 1.35 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 43:10 K:BB over 33.1 innings during that stretch. He is projected to next take the mound Wednesday at home against Pittsburgh.

Webb (1-2) tossed six innings against San Diego on Friday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four. He was tagged with the loss.

Webb notched his second straight quality start in the contest, but he was outdueled by Yu Darvish and suffered the loss. Still, it was a promising effort from Webb after he began the campaign by allowing 10 earned runs over his first 15.1 frames. The right-hander has since yielded only three runs over 13 innings while registering a 12:4 K:BB over his past two starts. He's tentatively lined up to face the Rockies at Coors Field on Wednesday.

Gray (3-2) allowed five runs (four earned) on nine hits and one walk while striking out three across six innings to take the loss Friday against the Diamondbacks.

This was Gray's worst start of 2021; he allowed a season-high four earned runs. The damage came in the third inning in which he surrendered four straight hits with two outs, followed by a throwing error by Josh Fuentes, resulting in a four-run inning. Other than that, he pitched well and managed to get through six innings. The 29-year-old has had a good start to the season with a 3.15 ERA and 34.1 innings pitched through six starts.
