  • Brewers' Logan Henderson: Solid despite loss

    Henderson (6-2) took the loss against San Diego on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk while striking out seven batters over 6.1 innings.

    Henderson gave up all three runs on homers -- a Ty France solo shot in the second inning and a Jackson Merrill two-run blast in the seventh. Though that was enough to hand him the loss, the right-hander still notched his second straight quality start and extended his streak of outings with seven or more punchouts to four starts. Henderson has posted a 2.57 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 35:4 K:BB over 28 innings spanning five starts since the All-Star break to strengthen his hold on a spot in the Brewers' rotation. He's tentatively slated to make his next start on the road against the Dodgers.

  • Casey Mize SP | SD

    Padres' Casey Mize: Much better in second start for SD

    Mize tossed six innings in a no-decision against Milwaukee on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters.

    Mize was hammered by Arizona for eight runs over 3.1 innings in his San Diego debut last Wednesday, but he was much better in his second start with his new club. The right-hander gave up a Christian Yelich two-run homer in the second inning, but that was the only time the Brewers were able to score against him. Mize induced just six swinging strikes, but he still managed a respectable six punchouts and recorded his ninth quality start of the campaign. He's being asked to help stabilize a shaky Padres rotation and is lined up to make his next start on the road against the Guardians.

  • Reid Detmers SP | LAA

    Angels' Reid Detmers: Logs quality start in no-decision

    Detmers allowed one run on three hits and four walks while striking out six batters over six innings in a no-decision against the Angels on Monday.

    Though Detmers issued four free passes, he had pretty good control overall, throwing 55 of 88 pitches for strikes. The southpaw didn't give up any extra-base hits and recorded his ninth quality start of the campaign. Detmers still hasn't earned a win since June 16, but this was a promising outing after he had posted a 5.05 ERA across his previous eight starts. He's lined up to make his next appearance at home versus Kansas City.

  • MacKenzie Gore SP | TEX

    Rangers' MacKenzie Gore: Fans nine Monday

    Gore allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out nine batters over 5.1 innings in a no-decision against the Angels on Monday.

    Gore was dominant in the outing, racking up 22 swinging strikes and nine punchouts. However, he needed 103 pitches to get through 5.1 frames, and the Rangers' offense didn't come to life until the 10th inning, so he had to settle for a no-decision. Regardless, Gore tied his second-highest strikeout total of the campaign and has now given up just one earned run over 11.1 frames across his past two starts. He's lined up to make his next start on the road against the Athletics.

  • Jacob Lopez SP | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Lopez: Strong start goes to waste

    Lopez allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out five over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Rays on Monday.

    Lopez put forth his longest outing of the season, and it was one of his better performances as well. The Athletics weren't able to hang onto the lead when the bullpen took over, as Seth Johnson and Jose Suarez combined to allow eight runs in the eighth inning. Lopez has allowed eight runs (seven earned) over 26.2 innings across five starts since he re-entered the rotation after the All-Star break. For the year, he's at a 5.38 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 75:44 K:BB through 82 innings across 19 games (16 starts). Lopez's recent pitching is encouraging, but he remains a risky option in fantasy due to a hitter-friendly home park. His next outing is projected to be at home versus the Rangers.

  • Rays' Freddy Peralta: Submits quality start Monday

    Peralta allowed three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out five over six innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Monday.

    Peralta was better in this start than in his Rays debut last week, but the offense didn't back him up while he was in the game. It had been two months since Peralta last covered six innings in a start -- he posted a miserable 8.01 ERA over his previous nine starts, six of which were shorter than five frames. On the year, Peralta has a 5.33 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 121:50 K:BB through 123.1 innings over 24 starts between the Rays and the Mets. He's lined up to make his next start at home versus the Orioles.

  • Astros' Hayden Wesneski: Goes seven innings in no-decision

    Wesneski allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Monday.

    Wesneski gave up solo home runs to Jung Hoo Lee and Drew Gilbert, but the right-hander was still able to claim his second quality start in three outings this season. He's shown little rust coming off of May 2025 Tommy John surgery, allowing no more than three runs in any start so far. He's at a 3.86 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB through 18.2 innings. Wesneski is projected to make his next start at home versus the Mariners over the weekend.

  • Mike Soroka SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Michael Soroka: Steady in return

    Soroka (glute) allowed three hits and three walks while striking out four over 4.1 shutout innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Monday.

    Soroka didn't pitch deep enough into this game to earn the win, but it was a promising return after he missed nearly two months due to a glute strain. The right-hander threw 47 of 77 pitches for strikes, so a bit of inefficiency likely cost him the win in a game where Arizona was never threatened. Prior to the injury, Soroka was having a resurgent season -- he's at a 2.92 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 83:20 K:BB through 86.1 innings over 16 starts. He's tentatively projected to make his next start at Atlanta, though he may still have at least a slight workload limit.

  • Gabriel Hughes SP | COL

    Rockies' Gabriel Hughes: Poor showing in loss

    Hughes (0-4) allowed seven runs on five hits, three walks and a hit batsman while striking out three over four innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Monday.

    For the second start in a row, Hughes has allowed a season high in runs. He had largely kept things competitive in July, but with 12 runs allowed over his last 9.1 innings, he's starting to falter. He has posted a 5.61 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 31:12 K:BB through 33.2 innings over seven games (six starts) in the majors this season. He's projected to set a new career high in innings across all levels if he remains in the Rockies' rotation, but the workload increase is expected to be modest overall. Hughes' next outing is projected to be in San Francisco over the weekend.

  • Rays' Shane McClanahan: Goes through simulated game

    McClanahan (back) threw two innings in a simulated game Thursday, per MLB.com.

    McClanahan is next scheduled to toss three innings in another outing in the next several days, according to president of baseball operations Erik Neander. The Rays believe the left-hander is dealing with only a minor bout of left mid-back tightness, and McClanahan appears to have a chance of avoiding heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining Tampa Bay's rotation.
