Senzatela (1-7) took the loss Wednesday against the Rangers after allowing six runs on eight hits and four walks in 4.2 innings. He struck out three.

For the seventh time this season, Senzatela surrendered at least seven hits in a start. The veteran right-hander has yet to give up fewer than six knocks in any of his nine outings this year, and he set a season high with four walks Wednesday. After giving up no earned runs over 9.2 innings to open the season, Senzatela has an 8.21 ERA and 19:11 K:BB over his last seven appearances. He won't be a recommended fantasy streamer versus the Phillies in his next scheduled start, currently projected for early next week.

Falter did not factor into Wednesday's decision against the Mets, allowing three hits and five walks while striking out three across 3.2 scoreless innings.

Falter was able to keep the Mets off the board, but he allowed eight baserunners and ran his pitch count up to 78 (41 strikes) before being lifted for Chase Shugart in the fourth inning. It was the first time in nine starts this season that Falter didn't make it out of the fourth frame, but he has yielded just one earned run over his last three starts. He's in line to start against the Reds at home next week.

Vasil picked up the save in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Reds, allowing one walk with no strikeouts over a scoreless ninth inning.

Vasil has been a multi-inning reliever in 2025, but after tallying a 1.88 ERA through 24.0 innings to open his rookie season, the White Sox opted to give him a try in the ninth inning. He cashed in on the opportunity, logging the first save of his career. Considering the White Sox's lack of reliable arms, Vasil could continue to see save chances. However, those are expected to be few and far between.

Taillon (2-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Marlins, allowing three runs on four hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over six innings.

Taillon surrendered four home runs in his previous start and couldn't keep the ball inside the park once again Wednesday. Three of the four hits he allowed to the Marlins were long balls, with Kyle Stowers hitting two and Agustin Ramirez accounting for one. Though Taillon hadn't yielded multiple home runs since his season debut before this stretch, he's been tagged for a homer in all but two starts this year. Over 49.2 innings, he owns a 4.53 ERA and a 42:9 K:BB. Taillon will look to get back on track in his next start, which is scheduled to be a rematch with Miami next week.

Weathers (1-0) picked up the win Wednesday against the Cubs, allowing one run on two hits and one walk with five strikeouts across five innings.

Miami activated Weathers off the injured list for Wednesday's start after a forearm injury kept the 25-year-old sidelined since the beginning of the season. While he threw only 76 pitches -- an expected outcome after maxing out at 57 pitches during his rehab assignment -- Weathers worked with efficiency versus a potent Cubs offense. His lone blemish came in the fourth inning when Seiya Suzuki lifted a solo homer. His next start is scheduled for next week in a rematch with the Cubs.

Lodolo (3-4) took the loss Wednesday against the White Sox, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks with four strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

Lodolo failed to complete six innings for the fourth time in his last six starts, getting pulled midway through the sixth frame after yielding a solo home run to Lenyn Sosa. During that six-start stretch, Lodolo is 1-3 with a 4.76 ERA and 34 strikeouts across 34.0 innings. He's tentatively expected to make his next start Monday at Pittsburgh.

Martin (2-4) picked up the win in Wednesday's 4-2 victory over the Reds, allowing one run on seven hits and no walks across 6.2 innings. He struck out five.

Martin had allowed seven runs in 9.1 innings spanning his last two starts, a stretch that ballooned his ERA from 3.24 to 4.01. He bounced back Wednesday by exceeding six innings for the first time all year and picking up his first win in six starts. He holds a 3.65 ERA and a 33:12 K:BB across 49.1 innings this season and is expected to take the mound again Monday against Seattle.

Elder didn't factor into the decision Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and one walk with three strikeouts across six innings during the 5-4 loss to Washington.

Elder didn't quite pack the strikeout punch he had in his previous two starts when he logged eight and six Ks, respectively. He made up for it by not allowing a single extra-base hit and retiring 15 of the final 18 batters he faced after giving up a run in the opening frame. Atlanta led 4-1 when Elder exited after six innings, but Washington rallied to score four runs in the closing three frames to steal the victory. Through 44 innings, Elder has a 4.50 ERA and a 33:13 K:BB. Elder is scheduled to face the Nationals again Wednesday.

Bassitt did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's game against Tampa Bay, allowing one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out six over 5.2 innings.

Bassitt entered Wednesday's game having yielded three earned runs or more in each of his last four outings. He allowed at least two baserunners in three of the first four innings, but he was able to limit the damage to a single run. Bassitt has a 3.16 ERA and 1.27 WHIP across 51.1 innings this season, and his 55 strikeouts is eighth most in the American League. He also boasts a 4.1 percent walk rate, which is in the 93rd percentile in the majors. Bassitt is slated to face the Padres at home next week.

Pepiot (2-5) took the loss against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out seven across six innings.

Pepiot managed to keep the Blue Jays off the board through the first five innings, but he gave up a three-run homer to Alejandro Kirk in the sixth and was unable to get enough run support from the Rays' hitters to avoid the loss. Pepiot has logged a quality start in four of his last five appearances but has taken the loss in three of those outings. The 27-year-old right-hander has a 3.47 ERA and 1.26 WHIP across 49.1 innings this season and is lined up to face the Astros at home next week.
