Fedde logged a no-decision against Atlanta on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and three walks while notching three strikeouts over six innings.

Fedde had only one clean inning among his six frames, but he managed to mostly tip-toe around trouble with the help of two double plays behind him. The righty was in line for the win when he departed, but Atlanta scored five runs in the eighth frame to pull out the victory. While Fedde has registered a fine 3.33 ERA and 1.19 WHIP and now has four quality starts in five appearances, he's played with fire in walking three of more batters in each of his past four outings while heavily pitching to contact. As a result, his FIP is a much less desirable 5.07, while his K:BB is an ugly 13:14 through 27 innings.

Schwellenbach tossed seven innings in a no-decision against St. Louis on Monday, allowing three runs (two earned) on eight hits and no walks while striking out five batters.

Schwellenbach gave up a pair of runs in the second inning, but he recovered from that frame to allow only one more run over the remainder of his outing. The righty mostly pitched to contact, notching just nine whiffs and a modest five punchouts, which helped him get through seven innings on an efficient 92 pitches. This was a strong bounce-back performance by Schwellenbach after he yielded a season-high six runs over 4.2 frames against Toronto in his previous appearance. That performance against the Blue Jays was the only time Schwellenbach has struggled so far this season, as he otherwise has notched a quality start in each of his other four outings and holds a 2.56 ERA overall.

Diaz allowed a run on one hit in one inning during Monday's win over Philadelphia. He struck out two and earned a save.

While Diaz was charged with only one run, he served up a three-run blast to Bryson Stott after inheriting two runners from Max Kranick. It was the first home run allowed by Diaz since April 9 and snapped a three-inning scoreless streak. Despite his 5.59 ERA, he's converted each of his six save chances this season.

Megill (3-2) allowed a hit and four walks over 5.1 scoreless innings Monday, striking out 10 and earning a win against Philadelphia.

Megill mowed through the Phillies and produced his first double-digit strikeout performance since his 2021 rookie campaign. Outside of a bases-loaded jam in the third inning, he didn't face much of a threat despite throwing only 53 of 92 pitches for strikes. Megill generated a season-high 14 whiffs. He dropped his ERA to a terrific 1.09 with a 30:11 K:BB through 24.2 frames. Megill's next start is expected to be in Washington this weekend.

Nola (0-5) allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks over 6.1 innings Monday, striking out six and taking a loss against the Mets.

Nola gave up a leadoff homer to Francisco Lindor and a solo shot to Jesse Winker in the second inning. Nola didn't run into any more trouble until the seventh inning when he put two runners on base and was charged with both runs after being removed from the contest. It was his longest outing of the year and just the second time he completed at least six frames. Nola has produced an unsightly 6.43 ERA with a 31:11 K:BB through 28 innings. He's currently lined up for a road start against the Cubs this weekend.

Stott went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in Monday's loss to the Mets.

Stott was 1-for-4 with a single before hammering a clutch three-run shot off of Edwin Diaz in the ninth inning. However, it wasn't enough to complete the comeback and the Phillies fell 5-4. Stott snapped a 17-game homerless drought with his second of the year. He's slashing .295/.356/.449 with 13 RBI and seven extra-base hits through 20 games.

Lindor went 2-for-3 with two home runs, four RBI and a walk in Monday's win over the Phillies.

For the second straight day, Lindor popped a leadoff homer to spark the Mets' offense. He then hammered a three-run shot in the seventh inning. The star shortstop had one long ball through 18 games but has since gone deep four times in his last four appearances. Lindor is slashing .284/.340/.500 with 16 runs scored and nine extra-base hits through 100 plate appearances.

Wagaman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a steal in Monday's win over the Reds.

Wagaman's third homer of the year was a solo shot in the fifth inning. He later singled and stole a base in the seventh. Wagaman is on a nine-game hitting streak, going 13-for-33 (.394) with six extra-base hits during that span. His season OPS is up to .815 through 71 plate appearances.

Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored, a stolen base and a walk in Monday's win over the Reds.

Ramirez singled in his first career MLB at-bat and came around to score during the second inning. His first extra-base knock was a ground-rule double in the seventh. Ramirez got the start behind the plate and his batterymate, Max Meyer, fired six shutout frames with 14 punchouts. Ramirez is one of the team's top prospects and is already building a strong case for regular playing time.

Lodolo (2-2) yielded three runs on seven hits and two walks over 5.2 innings Monday, striking out four and taking a loss against Miami.

Lodolo gave up two runs through four frames before Eric Wagaman launched a solo homer in the fifth inning. After beginning the season with three straight quality starts, Lodolo has failed to meet that benchmark in his last two outings. He commanded the zone well by throwing 71 of 99 pitches for strikes, but forced only 11 whiffs. Lodolo still owns a strong 2.79 ERA with an 18:4 K:BB through 29 frames. His next start is expected to be this weekend in Colorado.
