Castillo allowed five runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings in Tuesday's win over the Twins. He did not factor into the decision.

Castillo was staked a five-run lead in the third inning and gave it all right back. Kody Clemens took him deep in the third before the Twins would tack on four more runs in the fourth. Castillo has given up a home run in four consecutive outings and has allowed at least seven hits in three of his last six starts. Castillo is winless since May 19 and will look to change that this weekend against the Rangers.

Rodon took a no-decision Tuesday against Cincinnati, giving up no runs on four hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out five.

It was the sixth scoreless start of the season for Rodon, who has spun at least six innings each time he's accomplished this feat. The veteran southpaw has now thrown at least five innings in each of his 17 outings, and he's punched out at least five in all but one of those appearances. Rodon will carry a stellar 2.92 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 119:34 K:BB over 101.2 innings into his next scheduled start against the Blue Jays, who are hitting a torrid .314 versus left-handed pitching since and including May 28.

Crochet allowed three hits and three walks while striking out 10 over seven innings in a no-decision Tuesday versus the Angels.

Crochet was excellent, but the Boston offense supplied just one run of support while he was in the game. He's allowed one run or fewer in seven of his last 10 starts and in 10 of 17 starts overall. This was also his fourth double-digit strikeout game of the year. Crochet has a 2.06 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 135:31 K:BB across 109.1 innings. His next start is tentatively projected to be at home versus the Reds.

Anderson allowed a run on two hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Red Sox on Tuesday.

Anderson fell short of completing five innings for the third time in five starts in June. While this was arguably his best start of the month, he was pulled at 82 pitches (51 strikes), which shows there was a bit of inefficiency involved. The southpaw is now at a 4.41 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 70:33 K:BB through 85.2 innings over 16 starts. Anderson is projected to make his next start at Atlanta.

Bradley (5-5) allowed two hits and a walk over 6.2 shutout frames Tuesday, striking out four and earning a win over Kansas City.

Bradley retired the first 16 batters he faced in the dominant performance. He faced a jam in the sixth inning with two runners in scoring position but escaped unscathed. It was a much-needed rebound after he gave up 19 runs (13 earned) over his previous three appearances. Bradley threw 57 of 87 pitches for strikes to earn his first win since May 21. He now owns a 4.57 ERA with a 77:35 K:BB through 86.2 innings this season. Bradley is lined up to start in Baltimore this weekend.

Bubic (6-5) yielded four runs (two earned) on eight hits over six innings Tuesday, striking out eight and taking a loss against the Rays.

Bubic coughed up a two-run homer to Danny Jansen in the second inning. The Rays later plated unearned runs in the fourth and fifth frames. Bubic has posted a 14:1 K:BB over his last two outings after walking four batters against the Yankees on June 11. However, he's given up 10 earned runs in his last three starts after giving up only seven runs in his previous eight outings. Bubic still owns a terrific 2.18 ERA and a 96:27 K:BB through 91 frames. He's currently slated for a tough home matchup against the Dodgers this weekend.

Vasil (3-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out one in 5.1 innings.

Vasil was very efficient out of the bullpen after the White Sox went with an opener. He needed just 54 pitches to complete five scoreless innings but was pulled in the seventh after the Diamondbacks put two on with one out, leading to a three-run frame. It was a career-long effort from Vasil, who's now pitched at least three innings in seven straight outings. Vasil lowered his ERA to a 2.82 across 54.1 innings and has been effective as a long reliver for the majority of the season.

Waldichuk (elbow) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Waldichuk tossed three scoreless innings, allowing one hit while hitting a batter and striking out four in a rehab start with Single-A Stockton on Sunday. He will now shift his minor-league rehab assignment to Las Vegas as he reaches the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery, which took place in May 2024. Waldichuk last pitched with the Athletics in 2023, posting a 5.36 ERA and 1.56 WHIP with 132 strikeouts over 141 innings in 35 appearances, including 22 starts.

Enns is expected to be called up from Triple-A Toledo to start Thursday's game against the Athletics, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Enns joined Detroit on a minor-league deal in December and will get a look with the big club after posting a 2.89 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 71:15 K:BB across 62.1 innings (14 starts) with Toledo. The left-hander last appeared in the majors in 2021 with the Rays and delivered a 2.82 ERA in nine bullpen appearances before he spent the subsequent three seasons pitching overseas. Detroit is expected to get Reese Olson (finger) back from the injured list next week, so Enns may be in store for just one turn through the rotation before heading back to Triple-A.

Bradford will undergo season-ending surgery Wednesday to repair the UCL in his left elbow, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Bradford had appeared close to beginning a rehab assignment, but the Rangers announced that the southpaw encountered a significant setback and will require surgery. It won't be known until the operation whether Bradford will need Tommy John surgery or an internal brace procedure. The latter would give him a better chance of contributing at some point next season, while the former could potentially knock him out until 2027.
