Corey Kluber SP | BOS
Rays' Corey Kluber: Improves to 9-7
Kluber yielded three runs on eight hits while striking out four over six innings Sunday. He earned a win against the Red Sox.
Kluber was tagged with three solo home runs in Sunday's win, beginning with Franchy Cordero's 403-foot blast in the third inning. It's the first time the veteran righty has given up multiple home runs in a start since May 10. He's now sporting a 4.21 ERA and a stellar 118:18 K:BB through 134.2 frames. However, despite going 4-2 over his last eight starts, Kluber owns a 5.40 ERA during that span. He's projected to face the Yankees at home next weekend.

Adam Wainwright SP | STL
Cardinals' Adam Wainwright: Pitches well in no-decision
Wainwright allowed two runs on eight hits and struck out four without walking a batter over 6.2 innings in a no-decision versus Atlanta on Sunday.
Wainwright was charged with two runs after Ryan Helsley gave up a three-run home run in the seventh inning. This was Wainwright's sixth quality start in his last seven outings -- he's allowed multiple runs just three times in that span. The 40-year-old ace has a 3.09 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 130:43 K:BB through 163 innings across 26 starts this season. He's projected for a home start versus the Cubs next weekend.

Lodolo (3-5) yielded three runs on five hits and a walk over seven innings Sunday, striking out five and taking a loss against Washington.
Lodolo tossed three shutout innings before coughing up a pair of runs in the fourth. He then served up a go-ahead solo shot to Ildemaro Vargas in the fifth. Lodolo is still searching for his first win since July 25; in six starts since that last victory, he's gone 0-2 with a 3.89 ERA and a 35:15 K:BB across 34.2 frames. Lodolo will carry a 4.30 ERA into his expected home matchup against the Rockies next weekend.

Mason Miller RP | SD
Athletics' Mason Miller: Makes return from IL
Miller (shoulder) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Thursday and made his return to the High-A Lansing rotation Sunday, striking out four over two innings while allowing one earned run on one hit and no walks.
Miller, the 97th overall selection in the 2021 First-Year Player Draft, made his full-season debut Sunday after a prolonged recovery from a right shoulder strain to begin the current campaign. Before slotting into Lansing's rotation, the 24-year-old right-hander struck out five over two scoreless innings in his lone rehab appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Patrick Corbin SP | TOR
Nationals' Patrick Corbin: Back in win column
Corbin (5-17) allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and a walk over six innings Sunday, striking out five and earning a win over the Reds.
Corbin yielded an unearned run in the first inning before serving up a solo homer to Stuart Fairchild in the second. The veteran southpaw then turned in four straight scoreless frames to earn his first win since June 28. He'd gone 0-7 with an abysmal 8.32 ERA in nine outings since that last victory. Corbin will carry a 6.56 ERA into his projected road outing against the Mets next weekend.

Jackson Jobe SP | DET
Tigers' Jackson Jobe: Looks sharp in High-A debut
Jobe (back) struck out three and allowed an earned run on four hits and one walk over five innings Saturday in his start with High-A West Michigan.
After receiving a promotion from Single-A Lakeland late last week, Jobe had been scheduled to make his High-A debut Wednesday, only to be pushed off his scheduled start due to back soreness. Jobe needed only a few extra days to move past the issue, and he was able to turn in a productive first outing for West Michigan. The 20-year-old right-hander pumped in 45 of his 67 pitches for strikes on the day.

Edward Cabrera SP | CHC
Marlins' Edward Cabrera: Stumbles against Dodgers
Cabrera (4-2) allowed six runs on five hits and three walks over 5.2 innings Sunday, striking out five and taking a loss against the Dodgers.
Cabrera gave up three runs in the first two innings, including Mookie Betts' home run to lead off the contest. The 24-year-old kept the Dodgers off the board for the next three innings before he was charged with three more runs in the sixth. Cabrera entered Sunday having yielded just six runs through 38.1 innings on the year, including a four-start scoreless streak that spanned 22.2 frames. He'll carry a 2.45 ERA into his projected start in Atlanta next weekend.

Julio Urias SP | LAD
Dodgers' Julio Urias: Back in win column
Urias (14-7) allowed one run on one hit and four walks over six innings Sunday, striking out seven and earning a win over Miami.
Brian Anderson's solo shot in the fourth inning was the lone blemish during Urias' quality start. The 26-year-old lefty has yielded two or fewer runs in eight consecutive starts, posting a terrific 1.08 ERA while going 7-1 during that span. Urias is now sporting a 2.32 ERA with a 137:31 K:BB through 139.2 frames. He's lined up for a home start against the Padres next weekend.

Brayan Bello RP | BOS
Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Gets another turn through rotation
Bello is scheduled to start Monday's game in Minnesota.
With Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) still on the injured list and with Josh Winckowski having recently been sent back to Triple-A Worcester, Bello will be making his second straight turn through the rotation. In his return from his own stint on the IL last Wednesday, Bello turned in the best outing of his young career, striking out seven and allowing two earned runs while scattering six hits and a walk over five frames.

Bailey Falter RP | ATL
Phillies' Bailey Falter: Draws another start
Falter is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks in Arizona.
Falter will be making his second straight turn through the rotation while the Phillies remain without Zack Wheeler (forearm), who was placed on the injured list last week. After striking out six and allowing three earned runs over six innings en route to earning the win his last time out Friday against the Pirates, Falter takes a 4.41 ERA and 1.24 WHIP into Wednesday's contest.
