Kirby (8-5) picked up the win in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over the Orioles, allowing three hits over seven scoreless innings. He struck out seven without walking a batter.

The right-hander racked up 32 called or swinging strikes among his 87 pitches (57 total strikes) en route to his fourth straight win, and his eighth quality start of the season. Kirby has gotten into the win column in seven of his last eight outings, delivering a 2.42 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 54:11 K:BB across 48.1 innings during that red-hot stretch. He'll look to keep rolling in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come on the road this weekend against the Mets.

May (7-8) picked up the win Tuesday against Houston, allowing five hits and one walk with eight strikeouts over six scoreless innings.

May notched his first win with the Red Sox after yielding three runs in 3.2 innings during his Boston debut last week. Tuesday's outing marked May's third scoreless start of the campaign, and he fell one strikeout short of tying his season high. In 113.2 innings this season, May has a 4.67 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 109:45 K:BB. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Orioles his next time out.

McCullers (finger) will begin a rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Sugar Land, MLB.com reports.

McCullers threw a bullpen session in Houston on Tuesday after throwing a four-inning simulated game a week earlier. Given the significant ramp-up before his scheduled rehab start, McCullers could be activated from the injured list by late August.

Arrighetti (1-3) took the loss Tuesday against Boston, allowing two runs on one hit and five walks with three strikeouts over five innings.

Arrighetti was hit around by Miami in his first start off the injured list last week and struggled to find the zone Tuesday. The 25-year-old had been sidelined since early April, so it's not too surprising for him to be rusty. That said, he allowed nine runs (seven earned) during his three-start minor-league rehab stint, which doesn't inspire much confidence. He'll look to get back on track in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled to come in Detroit.

Leiter didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against Arizona, allowing one run on four hits and two walks with three strikeouts over five innings.

The only damage against Leiter came in the third inning, when Blaze Alexander clubbed a solo home run. The long ball snapped Leiter's streak of three consecutive starts without allowing a homer. Leiter threw 58 of his 91 pitches for strikes and walked fewer than three batters for the first time in six outings. The 25-year-old will take a 3.94 ERA and 96:54 K:BB into his next start, which is scheduled to come early next week against Kansas City.

Rodon (12-7) earned the win Tuesday against the Twins, allowing one run on one hit and two walks in seven innings. He struck out five.

Rodon gave up one run on one hit and one walk in a shaky first inning, but he more than settled in and was just about untouchable from that point on. Tuesday also represented the first instance since his July 11 start in which the All-Star left-hander pitched at least seven innings, and Rodon now sports a 3.25 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 164:58 K:BB over 146.2 frames. His next outing is slated for next week in Tampa Bay against the Rays, who have a .604 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the beginning of July.

Lopez (6-6) allowed four hits, struck out nine batters and walked none over seven shutout innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Rays.

Lopez continues to look like the Athletics' best starter lately. Over his last four outings, he's posted a 28:6 K:BB across 24 scoreless innings in that impressive stretch. He won't keep this up forever, but his strong second half is showing serious developmental progress. He's now at a 3.30 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 103:30 K:BB through 84.2 innings over 19 appearances (15 starts) this season. Lopez will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is projected to be on the road in Minnesota.

Baz (8-9) allowed five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over seven innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Athletics.

Baz had his longest start since he went seven innings July 1. The right-hander didn't get any help Tuesday, nor did he do himself any favors by allowing four or more runs for the fourth time in five starts. He's now at a 4.93 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 140:50 K:BB through 135 innings across 24 starts. He's already exceeded the 118.2 innings he had across all levels in 2024, so it's possible the 26-year-old is wearing down a bit. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Yankees.

Flaherty (6-12) took the loss to the White Sox on Tuesday, allowing five runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out six over 4.1 innings.

The right-hander cruised through four scoreless frames before unraveling in the fifth, surrendering six hits and all five of his runs in the inning before being lifted. After a strong July in which he never allowed more than three runs in a start, Flaherty has now been tagged for five earned runs in back-to-back outings. He'll carry a 4.76 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 153:49 K:BB into his next scheduled start early next week against the Astros.

Wacha (7-9) got the win Tuesday over the Nationals, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three in 5.2 innings.

Wacha was one out away from completing five scoreless frames but a triple from Luis Garcia pushed across the first run for the Nationals. Another triple in the sixth by CJ Abrams led to a second run against Wacha but he was otherwise able to hold Washington at bay. Wacha has now gone six straight starts allowing two earned runs or fewer and will aim to keep his strong stretch rolling next week at home against the Rangers.
