Imanaga came away with a no-decision in Tuesday's 2-1 extra-inning win over the Padres, giving up one unearned run on four hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out seven.

After escaping jams in the third and fourth innings, Imanaga's luck ran out in the fifth when both Kyle Tucker and Gage Workman dropped pop flies in foul territory, giving Manny Machado a third life which he used to launch a solo homer. It was the only blemish on the southpaw's line, as he tossed 64 of 93 pitches for strikes before exiting. Imanaga will take a 2.22 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 21:10 K:BB through 28.1 innings over five starts into his next outing, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Dodgers.

Priester (1-0) allowed just one hit and walked three over five scoreless innings in a win against the Tigers on Tuesday. He struck out four.

Priester was dominant in his first home start as a member of the Brewers. He did not give up a hit until the very last batter he faced, which was a leadoff double in the sixth by Gleyber Torres, leading to a pitching change with the game being close. Priester's been an excellent acquisition for the Brewers early on, allowing just one run on seven hits in 10 innings. He lines up for a road start in San Francisco next week.

Schwellenbach (1-1) allowed six runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three in six innings in a loss to the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

Schwellenbach allowed just one run through four innings before running into trouble in the fifth. He walked a batter and allowed four hits, with two of those being home runs, before getting an out in the inning and eventually exited down 6-1. Schwellenbach was off to a brilliant start before Tuesday with a 0.45 ERA and 0.65 WHIP through his first three outings. He'll aim to return to his dominant ways in a home start versus the Cardinals next week.

Gonsolin (back) hurled four innings for Triple-A Oklahoma City in a rehab start Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five batters.

Gonsolin retired the first six batters he faced but then struggled in the third inning, giving up three runs. While his final line wasn't great, it's worth noting that all six hits the right-hander allowed were singles, including one bunt single. Gonsolin tossed 43 of 66 pitches for strikes in the outing, and the four frames represented his longest appearance in his rehab stint, which has consisted of three starts so far. Gonsolin will likely need at least one more rehab start before he's activated off the IL, and when he returns he could have at least a temporary spot in the Dodgers' rotation, especially if Blake Snell (shoulder) has not returned to action by then.

Kelly (3-1) allowed a run on three hits and a walk over six innings Tuesday, striking out nine and earning a win over the Marlins.

Kelly cruised to an easy win while his offense posted a double-digit scoring performance. The lone run against him was an RBI groundout from Liam Hicks in the second inning. Kelly forced a season-high 13 whiffs after generating just 19 total in his first three starts. He still owns an unsightly 5.57 ERA, but that was mostly due to his nine-run blow-up start against the Yankees on April 3. Kelly is currently projected for a road matchup against the Cubs this weekend.

Gillispie (0-2) allowed eight runs on eight hits and two walks over five-plus innings Tuesday, striking out six and taking a loss against Arizona.

Gillispie coughed up four runs in the second inning, one in the third, and was charged with three more in the sixth despite not recording an out in the frame. He entered Tuesday's outing with a 3.86 ERA over 14 frames, but it shot up to 6.63 after the ugly performance. Gillispie has not recorded more than 15 outs in any of his four starts this season. Still looking for his first career win, he's in line to start in Philadelphia this weekend.

Lodolo did not factor in the decision during Tuesday's win against Seattle. He allowed four runs on five hits and a walk over 4.2 innings while striking out six.

Lodolo may have nightmares about Dylan Moore after Tuesday's outing; Moore went deep in the first and fifth innings and added an RBI single in the second. Lodolo needed 90 pitches (60 strikes) and failed to record a quality start for the first time this season. Despite the hiccup, he owns a 2.31 ERA with a 14:2 K:BB through 23.1 innings. Lodolo is currently in line to start in Baltimore this weekend.

Megill (2-2) took the loss Tuesday against the Twins after giving up four runs (two earned) on eight hits and no walks in five innings. He struck out three.

While Megill started his outing with two scoreless innings, the following three frames were a bit more troublesome. Two of Megill's runs went unearned due to Francisco Lindor's fielding error in the third inning, and the right-hander gave up two runs across his final two frames before his night ended. Just one of the eight hits Megill allowed went for extra bases, though. Despite submitting a 1.34 WHIP over 19.1 innings (four starts), Megill has limited the damage by turning in a 1.40 ERA and 20:7 K:BB ahead of his next scheduled start against the Cardinals at home this weekend.

Irvin (1-0) yielded three hits and a walk over seven scoreless innings Tuesday, striking out six and picking up a win over Pittsburgh.

Irvin allowed only one runner to reach scoring position in the dominant outing. He threw 58 of 87 pitches for strikes and forced 10 whiffs. It was both his longest outing and his first quality start of 2025. Irvin dropped his season ERA to 3.91 with an 18:7 K:BB through 23 frames. His next start is projected to be in Colorado this weekend.

Keller (1-2) yielded three runs on six hits and two walks over six innings Tuesday, striking out three and taking a loss against Washington.

Keller served up a leadoff homer to James Wood to begin the night but then held the Nationals scoreless until Nasim Nunez's two-run single in the sixth inning. It was Keller's third quality start in four outings this season, but the three punchouts were his lowest total to date. He tossed 67 of 105 pitches for strikes but generated only eight whiffs. Keller now owns a 4.30 ERA with a 17:8 K:BB through 23 innings. He's currently in line for a home matchup against Cleveland this weekend.
