  • Marlins' Connor Gillispie: Allows four runs in no-decision

    Gillispie did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 7-5 extra-inning win over the Phillies, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk with three strikeouts over five innings.

    Gillispie surrendered three runs in the first inning but managed to settle in despite generating just six whiffs on 91 pitches. While the results haven't been ideal, the 27-year-old has completed at least five innings in four of his five starts this season. He'll take a 6.75 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB across 24 innings into a road matchup with the Mariners next weekend.

  • Jesus Luzardo SP | PHI

    Phillies' Jesus Luzardo: Strikes out seven in no-decision

    Luzardo did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 7-5 extra-inning loss to the Marlins, allowing two runs (one earned) on eight hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over seven innings.

    Luzardo was fantastic against his former team, needing just 88 pitches to complete seven frames while generating 17 swinging strikes. The southpaw has now yielded three earned runs or fewer in each of his five starts with his new club. On the season, he owns a 2.08 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 36:7 K:BB across 30.1 innings and lines up for a road matchup with the Cubs next weekend.

  • Clay Holmes RP | NYM

    Mets' Clay Holmes: Tosses six strong versus St. Louis

    Holmes pitched six innings, giving up one run on four hits and two walks while striking out six in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Cardinals. He did not factor into the decision.

    Holmes tossed five scoreless frames before running into a little trouble in the top of the sixth inning, surrendering the only run on his line on a one-out RBI groundout by Alec Burleson. The right-hander has now given up just two runs over 11 innings in his last two starts after the Marlins tagged him for four runs over 5.1 frames April 8. Holmes will carry a 3.16 ERA and 1.36 WHIP into his next projected start Saturday on the road versus the Nationals.

  • Cubs' Jameson Taillon: Pitches well in no-decision

    Taillon allowed one run on three hits across five innings and did not factor into the decision during Sunday's 3-2, 11-inning loss to the Diamondbacks. He walked two and struck out six.

    Taillon pitched well enough to deserve his second win of the season but didn't receive enough run support to escape his third straight no-decision. The veteran righty allowed six runs over 4.1 innings in his first start of the year, but since then, he's allowed only eight runs across 22.1 innings while striking out 23. Taillon seems to be rounding into form, and he'll look to keep pitching well in his next scheduled start, which is penciled in for next Sunday against the Phillies, as the Cubs only play five games in the coming week.

  • Chase Burns P | CIN

    Reds' Chase Burns: Heading to Double-A

    Burns is being promoted to Double-A Chattanooga, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

    Burns will move up a level after he produced a 3.09 ERA and 0.89 WHIP with 20 strikeouts over 11.2 innings in three starts with High-A Dayton. The right-hander is one of the Reds' top overall prospects, and the 2024 first-round pick is now one step closer to fulfilling his major-league dreams.

  • Mitch Keller SP | PIT

    Pirates' Mitch Keller: Yields two runs in no-decision

    Keller did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Guardians, pitching five two-run innings while allowing five hits and two walks. He struck out three.

    The Pittsburgh right-hander fired 101 pitches in this outing, as he limited the Cleveland lineup to just one extra-base hit. The only blemish on Keller's afternoon was a two-run homer cracked by Steven Kwan in the third inning. After 28 innings, Keller now sports a 4.18 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB. The 29-year-old is currently scheduled to make his next start against the fearsome Dodgers on the road next weekend.

  • Merrill Kelly SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Merrill Kelly: Exits early Sunday

    Kelly (leg) exited Sunday's contest against the Cubs in the bottom of the sixth inning due to right leg cramping.

    Kelly had tossed 5.2 innings of one-run ball, allowing two hits and a walk while striking out five batters before being forced to leave the game. The right-hander retired the final 16 batters he faced in the contest, and his status moving forward is likely day-to-day. Kelly is projected to make his next start Saturday against Atlanta, and it's unclear if he's in danger of missing that outing.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Expected to make next start

    Glasnow (lower leg) is expected to make his next start Sunday versus the Pirates, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    Glasnow departed Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rangers in the fifth inning due to cramping in his right lower leg, but manager Dave Roberts said following the game that the right-hander will likely be set for his next turn in the rotation. Glasnow tossed four scoreless innings before leaving the game Sunday, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out six batters. Through four starts in 2025, the right-hander has compiled a 3.71 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with 23 strikeouts over 17 innings.

  • Brewers' Logan Henderson: Dazzles in debut

    Henderson (1-0) earned a win after he pitched six innings, allowing one run on three hits and a walk while striking out nine batters in Sunday's 14-1 victory over the Athletics.

    Henderson was nothing short of spectacular in his major-league debut, tossing four scoreless frames to begin his outing. The only blemish on his line came in the top of the fifth inning, when he surrendered a one-out solo home run to Seth Brown. Henderson will likely return to Triple-A Nashville in the near future, but Sunday's performance should lead to another chance with the Brewers down the road this season.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Departs with cramps

    Glasnow exited Sunday's game against the Rangers due to cramps in his right lower leg.

    Dodgers fans and fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief, as the oft-injured Glasnow isn't dealing with a serious issue. The right-hander was pitching well prior to exiting the contest with six strikeouts across four scoreless innings, and he now has a 3.71 ERA through four starts this year. Los Angeles has two team off days this week, so Glasnow should naturally get some extra rest before his next turn through the rotation.
