Peralta did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings in a 3-2 loss against Colorado. He struck out 10.

Peralta diced up the Rockies and set down a season-high 10 batters on strikes. He worked through some traffic, as he stranded six runners. The righty is delivering another solid season for the Brewers with a 3.63 ERA and 41 strikeouts in 34.2 innings. His WHIP is at 1.27, which would be his highest mark since the 2019 season.

Feltner did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk over 5.1 innings against the Brewers. He struck out three.

Feltner shut the Rockies out through five innings, but he allowed three of the first four batters to reach in the sixth before being lifted. The 26-year-old allowed 13 runs in his first three starts of the season, but he's only surrendered two more in three subsequent starts to lower his ERA from 8.78 to 4.45. Feltner is tentatively scheduled to face the Mets on Sunday.

DeSclafani (3-1) earned the win Tuesday, allowing three hits over eight scoreless innings against the Astros. He struck out three.

DeSclafani rolled through the Astros lineup, posting a season high in innings pitched. The only downside to DeSclafani's outing was a season-low three strikeouts. The righty has been spectacular this season, going at least five innings in every start. He now has a 2.13 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 30 strikeouts in 38 innings.

Alcantara (1-3) took the loss Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks over five innings against Atlanta. He struck out five.

Alcantara struggled Tuesday, though his final line certainly could've been worse, as he managed to strand nine baserunners over five high-stress innings. Overall, it's been a disappointing start to the year for Alcantara following his Cy Young campaign. His ERA is up to 5.09 with a 1.25 WHIP and 31:12 K:BB through six starts (35.1 innings). The 27-year-old Alcantara will look to get back on track in his next outing, tentatively lined up for this weekend against the Cubs, where the ace will be looking for his first win since April 4.

Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Irvin will be recalled from Triple-A Rochester to make the start against the Cubs on Wednesday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Irvin will be making his MLB debut Wednesday. The 26-year-old has made five starts (22.1 innings) for Rochester while posting a 5.64 ERA and 20:11 K:BB. The Nationals have already sent down Cory Abbott to make room for Irvin on the roster. Whether Irvin makes multiple starts for Washington will be determined in part by how he pitches against the Cubs.

Wesneski allowed just one run on five hits across six innings but did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's loss to the Nationals. He struck out two and did not walk a batter.

Wesneski was sharp in his second quality start of the year, but the Cubs mustered only one run of support, denying him a shot at his third win. After allowing eight earned runs across six innings in his first two starts, the 25-year-old has allowed just six earned runs over 22.1 innings in his last four outings. Wesneski will look to keep it up in his next start, which is tentatively set for Sunday against the Marlins.

Suarez (forearm/elbow) fired two scoreless, hitless innings during which he recorded a strikeout and a walk in his rehab start for Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Suarez was scheduled to go deeper in the game, but because of inclement weather, the left-hander threw only 29 pitches. He was able to continue ramping up in the bullpen, however, and finished at 54 pitches. Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that Suarez will make at least one more rehab start before making his return from the 15-day injured list and joining Philadelphia for his 2023 big-league debut.

Lucchesi and the Mets will not face Detroit on Tuesday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

The game will be made up as a split doubleheader between the Tigers and Mets on Wednesday. Lucchesi is virtually assured of starting one of those two contests after being scheduled to take the ball against Detroit on Tuesday.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Kershaw is currently the scheduled starter for Friday's game against the Padres, Matthew Moreno of DodgersBlue.com reports.

Dustin May was lined up for Friday's start with Kershaw going against the Padres on Saturday, but the Dodgers appear committed to giving May some extra time to rest up. Kershaw was outstanding in his most recent start last Saturday, tossing seven scoreless innings in a win over the Cardinals.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Tuesday that Houser (groin), who remains on the 15-day injured list and is on a rehab assignment, is trending toward making a start soon for the big-league club, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

McCalvy believes that start could come against the Giants in the Brewers' upcoming three-game series in San Francisco this weekend. Houser covered five innings and 80 pitches last Friday in his most recent rehab start for Triple-A Nashville, allowing three runs. The Brewers haven't officially decided on Houser's next step or his role once he's activated, but if he joins the rotation, he would likely be replacing Colin Rea as the team's No. 5 starter.
