Freeland (0-2) took the loss Tuesday against the Brewers, giving up five runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out five in 6.1 innings.

Milwaukee first got to Freeland in the second inning, touching up the left-hander for four runs courtesy of a Jackson Chourio two-run double and one-run singles by William Contreras single and Sal Frelick. Freeland righted the ship for three scoreless frames afterward, but a Brice Turang home run in the seventh sent the southpaw packing Tuesday. Freeland has now gone at least six innings in each of his first three starts while working to a 3.79 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and a pristine 15:0 K:BB across 19 frames, but he'll face a difficult task in San Diego for his next scheduled start over the weekend.

Peralta (1-1) got the win Tuesday against the Rockies after allowing one run on three hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out six.

Besides a solo homer by Brenton Doyle in the third inning, it was smooth sailing for Peralta, as he gained his first win of the year despite having to work at hitter-friendly Coors Field. Through 18 innings (three starts) to open the campaign, the star right-hander now totes a strong 2.00 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 22:4 K:BB. On tap for Peralta is another tough draw in Arizona for his next scheduled start this weekend.

Hill went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 10-5 loss to the Mets.

Hill took Huascar Brazoban deep for a 398-foot, two-run home run to center field in the sixth inning to reduce the Marlins' deficit to one run. Hill's best play of the game came in the bottom of the sixth frame, when he made a diving catch in center field for the third out to rob the Mets with the bases loaded. He's slashed .269/.345/.462 with two walks, two stolen bases, one home run and three RBI to start the season.

Cronenworth was removed from Tuesday's game against the Athletics due to an apparent leg injury, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Cronenworth didn't even attempt to run to first base on his third-inning groundout, instead doubling over in pain while grabbing at his leg. He was eventually able to walk off the field under his own power, but the Padres will presumably take a closer look at him to see if he suffered any severe damage.

Hicks went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 loss to the Mets.

Hicks got the scoring started Tuesday with a two-run single in the first inning, and he added a third RBI in the sixth when his groundout to first brought Griffin Conine across home plate. After starting the season 0-for-8, Hicks has logged a hit in four of his last five outings and has gone 5-for-14 with one double and four RBI across that span.

Gillispie (0-1) did not factor into the decision against the Mets on Tuesday. He gave up two runs on three hits and one walk while striking out two over four innings.

Tuesday was the second straight start against the Mets for Gillispie, and for a second consecutive time he came away with a no-decision as Calvin Faucher was tagged with the loss. Gillispie tossed 74 pitches (43 strikes) but was unable to reach five innings of work after doing so in each of his first two starts of the 2025 season, and he's begun the year with a 3.27 ERA and 1.14 WHIP across 22 frames. With the Marlins slated for two off-days over the next week, Gillispie may not take the mound again until next weekend's series against the Phillies.

Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 win over the Marlins.

Lindor finally registered his first home run of the 2025 season Tuesday, taking Connor Gillispie deep to right field in the first inning. Lindor hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh frame to register his first multi-RBI game of the season while extending the Mets' lead to five runs. He is on a seven-game hitting streak and has gone 9-for-26 with three walks, two doubles, one home run and four RBI over that span.

Taillon didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Rangers after allowing three runs on five hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out six.

After allowing Jonah Heim to plate a pair of runs on a single in the second inning, Taillon served up a solo homer to Wyatt Langford in the third frame. Despite the early struggles, the veteran right-hander settled in to throw three scoreless innings thereafter to register a quality start and was in line for the win before the Cubs relinquished a 6-3 lead in the eighth. Taillon will take a 6.06 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 14:4 K:BB over 16.1 innings (three starts) into a tougher matchup in San Diego for his next scheduled start, which is tentatively set for early next week.

Alonso went 2-for-4 with two doubles and four RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 win over Miami.

Alonso registered his first RBI of the game in the third inning, and he proceeded to drive in three more runs on a bases-clearing double in the sixth frame to give the Mets a four-run lead. Alonso has logged two hits in each of his last three games and has recorded at least four RBI in three games this season. Alonso has gone 12-for-30 with four walks, five doubles, three home runs and 15 RBI over his last eight outings.

Holmes (1-1) came away with the win against the Marlins on Tuesday. He gave up four runs on five hits and three walks while striking out 10 across 5.1 innings.

Holmes got off to a rough start by allowing two runs in the first inning, but he was nearly flawless over the next four frames, striking out nine batters over that span. He was tagged for two more runs in the sixth, but the Mets were able to generate enough offense for Holmes to log his first win of the 2025 campaign. In his first three starts of 2025, Holmes has a 4.30 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 20:9 K:BB across 14.2 innings. His next start is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Twins.
