  • Reid Detmers SP | LAA

    Angels' Reid Detmers: Fans six in Wednesday's loss

    Detmers (1-4) took the loss Wednesday, giving up four runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings as the Angels were downed 4-2 by the Guardians. He struck out six.

    A leadoff homer by Angel Martinez set the tone, but it was Detmers' inability to control Cleveland's running game with Sebastian Rivero behind the plate that proved just as costly -- the Guardians went 5-for-5 on steal attempts against the battery, with Martinez and Jose Ramirez each swiping two. Detmers was lifted after 102 pitches (60 strikes) and remains in search of his first win since April 14. He'll take a 4.38 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 53:17 K:BB through 49.1 innings into his next start, which is set to come at home early next week against the A's.

  • Kyle Bradish SP | BAL

    Orioles' Kyle Bradish: Blanks Yanks for second win

    Bradish (2-5) picked up the win Wednesday in a 7-0 victory over the Yankees, allowing one hit and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out seven.

    A fifth-inning double by Jazz Chisholm accounted for the only knock off Bradish, with three Baltimore relievers completing the combined shutout. The right-hander has produced back-to-back quality starts and has lasted at least five innings in seven straight trips to the mound, a stretch in which he's delivered a 3.76 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 42:19 K:BB over 38.1 innings. Bradish will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which lines up to come on the road early next week in Tampa Bay.

  • Nathan Eovaldi SP | TEX

    Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi: Expects to make start Sunday

    Eovaldi (side) threw a bullpen session without issue Wednesday and expects to make his next scheduled start Sunday in Houston, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

    Eovaldi had to be scratched from a scheduled start Monday against the Diamondbacks due to tightness in his left side. However, he has bounced back quickly and appears poised to miss only the one turn through the rotation. The veteran right-hander has been excellent in his last two starts, logging a 0.60 ERA, 0.53 WHIP and 15:1 K:BB.

  • Marlins' Braxton Garrett: Poised to join big-league rotation

    Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said that Garrett will be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to start the Marlins' series finale in Minnesota on Thursday, Kyle Sielaff of Marlins.tv reports.

    Garrett will be plugged into the Miami rotation as a replacement for lefty Robby Snelling (elbow), who was placed on the 15-day injured list after being diagnosed with a UCL sprain. After missing the entire 2025 season while recovering from UCL revision surgery with an internal brace, Garrett failed to break camp with the Marlins but has been a lights-out performer at Jacksonville to begin the season. Through six starts at Triple-A, Garrett has submitted a 2.30 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 32:15 K:BB in 31.1 innings. With Snelling's elbow injury likely to keep him on the shelf beyond the 15-day minimum, Garrett should be in line for an extended run in the Miami rotation.

  • Robby Snelling SP | MIA

    Marlins' Robby Snelling: Lands on IL with sprained UCL

    The Marlins placed Snelling on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a left elbow UCL sprain.

    It's a brutal blow for the Marlins and for Snelling, who just made his major-league debut last week. Whether the rookie southpaw undergoes season-ending surgery hasn't been determined yet, but it's a distinct possibility given the nature of his injury. Braxton Garrett is set to enter the Marlins' rotation in Snelling's place.

  • Nathan Eovaldi SP | TEX

    Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi: Plays catch Wednesday

    Eovaldi (side) played catch in the outfield Wednesday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Eovaldi had to be scratched from a scheduled start Monday against the Diamondbacks because of left side tightness. He's listed as day-to-day, and the fact that he's throwing again already suggests he has a chance to take his next turn through the rotation this weekend in Houston.

  • Max Fried SP | NYY

    Yankees' Max Fried: Set for imaging on sore elbow

    Fried was removed from Wednesday's start in Baltimore after three innings due to left posterior elbow soreness, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Fried had his usual velocity in the outing but wasn't sharp, allowing three runs on five hits and a walk while needing 61 pitches to navigate through his three frames. He will be examined by team physician Dr. Chris Ahmad and undergo imaging Thursday in New York. That Fried's soreness is on the outside of the elbow suggests his injury is not to the UCL, but more will be known after Thursday's exam. If Fried has to go on the injured list -- which is a likely scenario -- the Yankees could need a spot starter to take one turn before Gerrit Cole (elbow) is ready to rejoin the rotation.

  • Brady Singer SP | CIN

    Reds' Brady Singer: Optimistic about making next start

    Singer is hopeful of making his next start despite being hit in the right foot by a comebacker during Tuesday's outing versus the Nationals, Charlie Clifford of NBC 5 Cincinnati reports.

    A 106.7-mph comebacker off the bat of Daylen Lile in the second inning caught Singer in the foot. He stayed in the game but allowed five of the next 12 batters to reach base and three of them to score, so he might have been affected by the injury. However, Singer feels better than expected Wednesday, and it seems he should be good to go Sunday in Cleveland, barring a setback.

  • Chris Paddack RP | TEX

    Reds' Chris Paddack: Signs, making Reds debut Saturday

    Paddack signed a one-year deal with the Reds on Wednesday and is slated to start Saturday's game against the Guardians in Cleveland, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Paddack will be taking over the rotation spot of Rhett Lowder (shoulder), who was placed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday in a corresponding transaction. Though the 30-year-old righty will provide the Reds with a battle-tested arm at the back end of the rotation, he'll need to display vastly improved form with his new club to ensure he maintains a starting role on anything more than a short-term basis. Paddack won a spot in the Miami rotation coming out of spring training but went 0-5 with a 7.63 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 27:10 K:BB over 30.2 innings before the Marlins cut him loose last week.

  • Rhett Lowder SP | CIN

    Reds' Rhett Lowder: Move to IL made official

    The Reds placed Lowder on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right shoulder discomfort.

    Lowder was forced to exit his start last Thursday with right shoulder trouble and was subsequently given an injection in the AC joint. He does not have any structural damage, so Lowder has a chance to return soon, but it will depend on how he does after he's cleared to ramp up throwing again. Chris Paddack was signed to take Lowder's roster spot and should also hold down a slot in the rotation while Lowder is out.
