Quintana (shoulder) was scheduled to throw a bullpen session Tuesday and will do so again Friday before the Brewers determine his next steps, MLB.com reports.

Quintana landed on the 15-day injured list May 14 due to a left shoulder impingement, and at the time, the Brewers were hopeful that he would be able to return when first eligible May 26. The veteran southpaw is no longer on track to be activated that day, but a return later on next week hasn't been ruled out. Quintana was recently sent in for a second opinion on his injury, but after the original diagnosis was confirmed, he received the green light to get back on the mound this week. Assuming Quintana's side session Tuesday went well, he'll throw what will presumably be a more intense bullpen session Friday. After that, the Brewers will assess whether he's ready to rejoin the big-league rotation, or if he'll need to complete a simulated game or go out on a minor-league rehab assignment beforehand.

Luzardo (5-0) got the win over the Rockies on Tuesday, allowing one run on two hits and three walks while striking out 10 in six innings.

Luzardo continues to dominate in a Phillies uniform, as he posted his sixth straight start of at least five innings while allowing two runs or fewer. Two hits allowed tied his fewest in a start this season and it was the first time he's recorded double-digit punchouts since he struck out 11 in his season debut. Luzardo's 1.95 ERA is currently eighth lowest in baseball and he is one of 16 starting pitchers with a K/9 over 10. Luzardo lines up to complete a two-start week against the Athletics this weekend.

Hence (ribs) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Palm Beach on Wednesday.

Hence has been sidelined all season with a right rib cage strain but has finally been cleared to test things out in game action. The top prospect will eventually move up to Triple-A Memphis but will be brought along slowly, given his injury history.

Fortes went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 14-1 loss to the Cubs.

The backstop took Jameson Taillon deep in the third inning for the Marlins' only offense of the night. It was Fortes' first homer of the season, while the start was his sixth in May over 17 games as he continues to split the workload behind the plate with rookie Agustin Ramirez and Liam Hicks. On the month, Fortes is batting just .136 (3-for-22).

Freeman went 3-for-4 with a double, a steal, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Phillies.

Freeman paced the Colorado offense with three hits and picked up his first extra-base hit of the year. He now has two steals and has not struck out in 10 at-bats since returning from injury Friday.

Weathers came away with a no-decision in Tuesday's 14-1 loss to the Cubs, allowing one run on five hits over five innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.

The lefty served up a solo shot to Kyle Tucker in the first inning but otherwise held Chicago's bats in check for a second straight start, only to see the Marlins' bullpen melt down as soon as he left the mound. Weathers has given up two runs in 10 innings with a 9:1 K:BB since coming off the injured list last week, and he'll look to stay sharp in a potential revenge game early next week when Miami travels to San Diego -- the team that drafted Weathers in the first round in 2018.

Senzatela (1-8) took the loss Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing four runs on 10 hits and a walk while striking out three in six innings.

Senzatela was hit around for three runs in the first inning but continued on to throw five more innings of one-run ball. Despite tying a season-high mark with 10 hits allowed, Senzatela managed to reach six innings for just the second time in 2025 and did not allow a home run for the third time in his last four home starts. He's given up at least four runs in five consecutive starts and his 6.34 ERA is the worst in baseball among qualified pitchers. Senzatela will have his hands full again when the Yankees come to town this weekend.

Suzuki went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, a home run, three runs scored and four RBI in Tuesday's 14-1 win over the Marlins.

The game was tied 1-1 until the Cubs erupted for eight runs in the sixth inning, with Suzuki's two-run blast on a Lake Bachar fastball capping the offensive outburst. It was Suzuki's 12th long ball of the year and his third in the last eight games, a stretch in which he's batting .300 (9-for-30) with four doubles, six runs and 11 RBI.

McCoy (finger) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday, going 1-for-4 with two RBI.

McCoy has been shelved since late April with a sprained finger on his left hand. He will likely need a handful of rehab games and isn't a guarantee to be added back to the major-league roster once activated from the 10-day injured list.

Tucker went 3-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 14-1 win over the Marlins.

The 28-year-old outfielder produced his first three-hit effort since April 22, while his first-inning long ball off Ryan Weathers snapped a brief nine-game homerless drought. Tucker has slowed down in May, but on the season he still sports a .268/.381/.532 slash line with 11 home runs, 13 steals, 34 RBI and 37 runs in 49 contests.
