Burrows is listed as the Pirates' probable starting pitcher for Tuesday's game in Baltimore.

In an effort to keep Burrows' workload in check down the stretch, the Pirates deployed him in relief for his last two appearances, but the right-hander will slot back into the rotation this week as Pittsburgh opens a three-game set in Baltimore. Even though he's starting again, Burrows is still likely to be subject to an unspecified innings and/or pitch limit, making it difficult to count on him pitching long enough to qualify for a win. In his most recent outing this past Wednesday against the Dodgers, Burrows had piggybacked Braxton Ashcraft, but the two pitchers could reverse roles Tuesday. Ashcraft isn't listed as a starter for the series in Baltimore, so he'll presumably be available to work behind Burrows.

Means (elbow) struck out three and allowed five earned runs on six hits and two walks over 4.1 innings in a rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Columbus.

Means had originally lined up to make the fifth start of his rehab assignment Friday with Columbus, but after falling ill, he ended up being pushed back a couple of days in the pitching schedule. The additional time off didn't prove beneficial for Means, who got stretched out to 72 pitches but wasn't particularly effective, as he surrendered four extra-base hits. The southpaw will presumably make at least one more rehab start with Columbus during the upcoming week before potentially returning from the 60-day injured list to make his Guardians debut in the second half of September.

Ober (5-7) earned the win Sunday at Kansas City, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over 5.1 innings with six strikeouts.

The Minnesota right-hander tallied a victory for the first time since May 3 -- he had gone 0-6 with a 5.91 ERA in 85.1 frames across 16 starts over that winless span. Ober's main issue during that stretch was the long ball, as he coughed up 24 -- good for a 2.5 HR/9 -- in that time. Sunday marked his first homerless performance in his last five appearances. Overall, the 30-year-old has now pitched to a 5.08 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 105:28 K:BB across 129.1 total innings. Ober currently projects to make his next start at home against Arizona next weekend.

Lorenzen (5-10) gave up four runs on seven hits and no walks over 5.1 innings to take the loss Sunday against Minnesota. He struck out five.

Despite generating an impressive 17 whiffs out of his 82 total pitches, Lorenzen had the misfortune of reaching the double-digit loss plateau for the first time in his 11-year career. The 33-year-old was bitten by the long ball -- coughing up two in an outing for the first time in his seven starts post-All-Star break -- with Byron Buxton and Kody Clemens going deep in the first and fourth, respectively. Through 124.1 total frames, Lorenzen now sports a 4.63 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 110:34 K:BB while yielding 21 homers. He currently lines up to make his next start at Philadelphia next weekend.

Sloan will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery on his eye Friday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Sloan's recovery is expected to take about 2-to-3 weeks, but it'll still be long enough to bring Sloan's campaign to an early end. The 19-year-old has pitched well out of the rotation for High-A Everett this season with a 3.44 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 77:15 K:BB over 70.2 frames in his first year of professional ball.

Interim manager Tony Mansolino said after Sunday's loss to the Dodgers that Sugano had X-rays on his right foot come back negative, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The right-hander was forced from Sunday's start after being struck in the foot by a comebacker, but he appears to have avoided a serious injury. His availability for the next turn through the rotation will likely depend on how the foot bounces back over the next few days. Sugano's record fell to 10-8 after giving up four runs on seven hits with one strikeout and no walks across three innings versus Los Angeles.

Martin allowed four runs (two earned) on two hits and three walks over 5.1 innings and did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 6-4 win at Detroit. He struck out three.

The Chicago right-hander overcame a sloppy first inning that saw the Tigers plate three runs (two unearned) in this 97-pitch performance. Since rejoining the rotation July 22 from a forearm injury, Martin has pitched to a 4.44 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 39:25 K:BB across 46.2 frames. Through 127.1 total innings, the 28-year-old has produced a 4.03 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 92:44 K:BB while giving up 19 homers. Martin projects to make his next start at Cleveland next weekend.

Morton did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the White Sox. He allowed three runs on four hits and three walks over three innings with two strikeouts.

The 41-year-old posted his shortest outing in a Tigers uniform, laboring across 72 pitches while turning in his fifth consecutive appearance with two or more walks issued. Over those five contests, Morton has been unreliable with a 6.08 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 25:17 K:BB in 23.2 frames. Overall, the Detroit right-hander now sports a 5.59 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 142:65 K:BB across 135.1 total innings while conceding 22 long balls. Morton will look to bounce back in his next matchup, which currently lines up to come at Miami next weekend.

Rea allowed just one run on three hits across 5.1 innings but did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals. He struck out six.

Rea was the second Chicago pitcher to enter the game, following opener Drew Pomeranz, who lasted an inning. The former pitched well after having allowed nine earned runs across 8.2 innings in his previous two appearances, and he lowered his ERA to 4.20 with the improved effort. With Jameson Taillon (groin) and Michael Soroka (shoulder) both currently on the shelf, Rea figures to remain in the rotation as the Cubs' fifth starter. He lines up to take the hill again Saturday against the Rays.

Kershaw (10-2) earned the win over the Orioles on Sunday, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk across 5.2 innings. He struck out eight.

It was an impressive outing from Kershaw, who logged a season-high eight strikeouts en route to his sixth win in his last seven starts. The 37-year-old Kershaw has lowered his ERA to 3.27 through 19 starts (99 innings) this season with a 1.16 WHIP and 69:26 K:BB. Kershaw is currently lined up to face the Giants on the road his next time out.
