Abel (2-1) took the loss against the Mets on Saturday, allowing four runs on six hits and no walks with one strikeout over three innings.

Abel allowed a solo home run in the first inning and then served up back-to-back-to-back long balls to the top three hitters in the Mets' order in the third. It marked the worst of the rookie's five starts with the Phillies, and he's now totaled just nine strikeouts over his past four outings after fanning nine in his major-league debut on May 18. He'll carry a 3.47 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 18:4 K:BB across 23.1 innings into a road matchup with Atlanta next weekend.

Perez (0-2) took the loss against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks with six strikeouts over 4.2 innings.

Perez allowed a run in the first inning and was charged with two more before failing to escape the fifth. While the 22-year-old has yet to complete five frames in any of his three starts since debuting June 9, he threw 58 of 89 pitches for strikes with 13 whiffs and touched 100 mph twice with his fastball. He'll carry a 6.17 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, and 11:7 K:BB across 11.2 innings into a tough matchup with the Diamondbacks next weekend.

Holmes (4-6) earned the win against the Marlins on Saturday, allowing five hits and five walks with five strikeouts over 5.2 scoreless innings.

Holmes kept the Marlins off the board despite issuing a season-high five walks, with all 13 of his swinging strikes coming on the slider. While the 29-year-old has just two wins over his past 10 starts, he's allowed three earned runs or fewer in nine of those outings. He'll take a 3.71 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 97:39 K:BB across 85 innings into a road matchup with the Mets next week.

Baldwin went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Marlins.

Baldwin reached base three times, highlighted by a three-run homer in the ninth inning to help put the game out of reach. The rookie has cooled off a bit in June, going just 9-for-41 over 14 games, though he's still managed three home runs and nine RBI during that span. On the season, he's slashing an impressive .293/.350/.483 with eight homers, 24 RBI and 16 runs scored across 160 plate appearances.

Roupp (5-5) earned the win against the Red Sox on Saturday, allowing three hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over six scoreless innings.

Roupp threw 56 of 90 pitches for strikes and generated 13 whiffs, including nine with his curveball. It was a nice rebound after the 26-year-old gave up six runs against the Dodgers in his previous outing June 14, and he's now delivered at least six scoreless frames in four separate starts this season. He'll carry a 3.67 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 70:32 K:BB across 76 innings into a road matchup with the White Sox next weekend.

Doval earned the save in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Red Sox, allowing two runs on three hits in the ninth inning without recording a walk or a strikeout.

Doval entered the ninth with a three-run lead and gave up three straight hits before settling down to retire the next three batters and secure the win. While the 27-year-old has converted six of seven save chances in June, he's also allowed five earned runs across 10 appearances. On the season, he's 12-for-15 in save opportunities with a 2.06 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 33:15 K:BB over 35 innings.

Devers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Red Sox.

Devers' first home run with his new team was a two-run shot in the third inning off former teammate Brayan Bello, and it proved to be the difference in the game. Since joining the Giants, the 28-year-old slugger has gone 4-for-20 with two extra-base hits and three RBI over five games as the team's designated hitter. On the season, he's slashing .267/.393/.497 with 16 homers, 61 RBI, 48 runs scored and one stolen base across 356 plate appearances.

Keller (1-10) took the loss against the Rangers on Saturday, allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits and two walks while striking out five across 5.2 innings.

Keller turned in another good performance and was one out shy from recording his 12th quality start of the season, but he still came away with the loss as the Pirates' hitters were unable to generate enough run support. Keller hasn't won a game since March 28 against the Marlins, and he has received two or fewer runs of support in 10 straight games. He is tied with Antonio Senzatela for the most losses in MLB this season, and Keller will hope to get back into the win column in his next start, tentatively slated for next week at home against the Mets.

Garcia (adductor) will begin his rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Garcia landed on the 15-day injured list in early June due to a right adductor strain, but he's made enough progress with his throwing program to resume pitching in games. The right-hander posted a 4.50 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 23:15 K:BB across 26 innings with the Dodgers prior to landing on the shelf.

Estrada (hand) is not in the Rockies' starting lineup against the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Estrada will be out of the lineup for a fourth consecutive game due to a right hand injury, but he told reporters Saturday that he doesn't believe he'll need a stint on the injured list, per Thomas Harding of MLB.com. Orlando Arcia will start at the keystone and bat eighth.
