May is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics in Sacramento.

Just as manager Alex Cora suggested would be the case, May is set to return to a starting role this week after the right-hander was deployed on three days' rest as a reliever in his most recent outing this past Wednesday against the Guardians. While working behind opener Brennan Bernardino, May limited Cleveland to one earned run on three hits and two walks. Since being acquired from the Dodgers on July 31, May owns a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings through his first six outings with the Red Sox.

Miller didn't factor into the decision against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.1 innings.

Miller kept things in check early, retiring nine of the first 10 batters he faced, before surrendering a solo homer to Matt Olson to lead off the fourth inning, extending his streak to eight straight starts with a long ball allowed. The right-hander was lifted in the sixth after issuing a walk to Ronald Acuna that loaded the bases, and the bullpen let one of those runners come home. Miller finished just two outs shy of recording back-to-back quality starts for the first time this season. The 27-year-old will carry a 5.53 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 53:29 K:BB across 70 innings into his next scheduled start against the Angels.

Skubal (13-4) picked up the win in Saturday's 6-0 victory over the White Sox, scattering two hits and a walk over six scoreless innings. He struck out six.

Chicago didn't get a runner past second base against Skubal, who delivered his fifth straight quality start and 19th of the season on 90 pitches (63 strikes). Per Sarah Langs of MLB.com, the Detroit ace has 12 outings this season of at least six innings without giving up a run, leaving him one shy of Bob Gibson's legendary 1968 campaign for the most by a pitcher in the live-ball era. Skubal will take a 2.10 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and absurd 222:28 K:BB through 180 innings into his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Miami.

Perez (1-4) took the loss Saturday, coughing up six runs on five hits and three walks over four innings as the White Sox fell 6-0 to the Tigers. He failed to strike out a batter.

The veteran southpaw had no margin for error in a matchup with Tarik Skubal, but after Perez served up a leadoff homer to Jahmai Jones, he completely unraveled in the fourth inning. Perez had allowed just four runs total (three earned) over 21.2 innings in August after returning from the IL, but his first outing in September provided an immediate correction to his ratios. Perez will carry a 3.15 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 39:18 K:BB through 45.2 innings on the season into his next start, which lines up to come on the road next weekend in Cleveland.

DeGrom (11-7) took the loss against the Astros on Saturday, surrendering three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out eight over 5.1 innings.

DeGrom opened the night in dominant fashion, striking out the side in the first inning before a clean second, but his outing would unravel as the game went on. The right-hander gave up solo homers to Christian Walker in the third and Yordan Alvarez in the fifth before exiting in the sixth with two runners on, leaving him two outs shy of what would have been his first quality start since August 9. Despite piling up 47 strikeouts in his last seven outings, deGrom has dropped five of his six decisions during that span. The 37-year-old owns a 2.78 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and a 169:35 K:BB through 155.2 innings and will look to bounce back in his next scheduled start against the high-powered Mets.

Brown (11-7) earned the win over the Rangers on Saturday, delivering six shutout innings with four hits, three walks, and eight strikeouts.

Brown continued his impressive August form, and he's posted a dazzling 1.44 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and a 41:14 K:BB through his last 43.2 innings. The right-hander threw a season-high 107 pitches, matching his career high, before exiting the mound with the Astros ahead 3-0. The outing was Brown's eighth scoreless start of the year, and he remains among the league's ERA leaders and strengthens his Cy Young case. The 27-year-old will take a 2.25 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and a 190:52 K:BB into his next scheduled outing against Atlanta next weekend.

Kikuchi (6-11) allowed seven runs on six hits and three walks while striking out one over two innings to take the loss versus the Athletics on Saturday.

Kikuchi was hit hard, as four of the six hits he gave up went for extra bases, leading to a season-high seven runs allowed. Kikuchi has gone 0-4 over his last five starts, surrendering 23 runs over 22.2 innings in that span to unravel what had been a promising season -- albeit with plenty of warning signs -- prior to August. Overall, he's now at a 4.18 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 163:69 K:BB through 161.2 innings over 30 starts. The southpaw is projected to make his next start against one of his former teams when the Angels visit Seattle next week.

Ginn (3-6) allowed one run on five hits and struck out five without walking a batter over five innings to earn the win over the Angels on Saturday.

Over six outings in August, Ginn went 0-4 with a 7.24 ERA and 34:13 K:BB across 27.1 innings. His first start of September was much better, and the Athletics gave him more than enough support in a 17-4 win. Ginn has had an uneven year with a 4.95 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 86:23 K:BB across 76.1 innings through 20 appearances (13 starts). The right-hander is projected to make his next start at home versus the Reds.

Ryan (13-8) took the loss against the Royals on Saturday, allowing five runs on four hits and four walks with two strikeouts over two innings.

Ryan was tagged for five runs in the first inning and issued a season-high four walks, leaving after just 62 pitches in his shortest outing of the season. Despite tossing seven shutout frames last Sunday, the 29-year-old has now allowed five earned runs or more in three of his past four starts. He'll carry a 3.32 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 176:34 K:BB across 157 innings into a home matchup with the Diamondbacks next weekend.

Kolek (5-5) earned the win against the Twins on Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk with four strikeouts over seven innings.

Kolek was spotted an early lead and ran with it, throwing 64 of 95 pitches for strikes while limiting the Twins to just two extra-base hits in his longest outing since a complete game shutout May 10. The 28-year-old has delivered quality starts in both of his appearances with the Royals and now owns a 3.88 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 63:27 K:BB across 92.2 innings this season. He's slated to face the Guardians on the road next week.
