Phillies' Kyle Gibson: Won't start Tuesday
Gibson (personal) won't start Tuesday against Atlanta, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Gibson was placed on the bereavement list Saturday following the death of his grandmother, and he'll be away from the team longer than the minimum amount of time. The Phillies will have a bullpen game Tuesday, while it seems likely that Gibson will start at some point during the team's series against the Nationals next weekend.

Ryan Feltner SP | COL
Rockies' Ryan Feltner: Sent back down
Feltner was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday.
Feltner was effective as a long reliever Friday against the Dodgers, striking out two in 3.1 scoreless innings. However, he'll head back to the minors a day after his promotion since Jordan Sheffield was recalled by Colorado on Saturday. Feltner should be in the mix to rejoin the big-league club if the Rockies need a spot starter or long reliever.

Kyle Wright SP | CHC
Braves' Kyle Wright: Nabs fourth straight win
Wright (13-4) earned the win Friday against the Diamondbacks after allowing two runs on five hits with five strikeouts and two walks in 6.2 innings.
Wright allowed single runs during the fourth and fifth innings but otherwise kept Arizona off the board. It was the right-hander's fourth consecutive quality start, and he's picked up a victory in each of those contests. Wright has won six of his past seven outings dating back to mid-June, and he has a 2.93 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB over 43 innings during that stretch.

Kyle Gibson SP | BAL
Phillies' Kyle Gibson: Placed on bereavement list
Gibson was placed on the bereavement list Saturday.
Gibson picked up his sixth win of the season Wednesday against Atlanta, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four in six innings. Players are allowed to spend between three and seven days on the bereavement list, so it's possible the the right-hander makes a start during the Phillies' road trip to Atlanta early next week.

Brandon Woodruff SP | MIL
Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Picks up ninth win
Woodruff (9-3) earned the win Friday at Boston after allowing one run on four hits with nine strikeouts and two walks over 6.1 innings.
Woodruff generated 19 swinging strikes on 101 total pitches, and he kept the Red Sox off the board besides besides giving up a run on back-to-back doubles during the sixth inning. The right-hander has been dominant in six starts since returning from the injured list in late June with a 4-0 record, 2.06 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 48:11 K:BB across 35 frames.

Jacob deGrom SP | TEX
Mets' Jacob deGrom: Making 2022 debut Tuesday
DeGrom (shoulder) will start Tuesday's game against the Nationals, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
DeGrom made four starts during his recent rehab assignment, and he posted a 2.84 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in 12.2 innings. While he gave up four runs in four innings during Wednesday's outing, he felt good afterward and will make his 2022 debut Tuesday on an extra day of rest. The right-hander threw 67 pitches during his most recent start, so it's possible that he'll have his workload monitored during Tuesday's matchup in Washington.

Jose Quintana SP | COL
Pirates' Jose Quintana: Strong start wasted Friday
Quintana didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 4-2 extra-inning loss to the Phillies, allowing four hits and two walks over 5.2 scoreless innings while striking out four.
The veteran lefty didn't let a baserunner get past first base through five innings, but Quintana ran into trouble in the sixth and fell just short of a quality start as a result, exiting with the bases loaded and two outs. Fortunately for his line, Yerry De Los Santos got Nick Castellanos to fly out to end the threat, although the Bucs' bullpen ultimately imploded and cost Quintana the win. Even with a rough outing in Coors Field on his ledger, he's been sharp over the last month-plus, and Quintana sports a 3.23 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 34:9 K:BB through 39 innings over his last seven starts while serving up zero homers.

Bailey Falter RP | ATL
Phillies' Bailey Falter: Fans eight in quality start
Falter didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 4-2 extra-inning win over the Pirates, giving up two runs on five hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out eight.
The eight punchouts were a career high for the southpaw, while the quality start was his first in the majors. Falter is still looking for his first win this season for the Phillies, and while he has an impressive 24:5 K:BB through 19 innings over four starts in July, he's also served up five homers and carries a 5.21 ERA during that stretch.

Julio Urias SP | LAD
Dodgers' Julio Urias: Goes seven strong for win
Urias gave up two earned runs on four hits and no walks while striking out four over seven innings to earn the win in a 5-4 victory over the Rockies on Friday.
Urias continued his excellent 2022 campaign with seven solid innings of two-run baseball on the road at Coors Field. Other than a blip in the second inning when he gave up an RBI triple to Randal Grichuk, Urias looked in control all night, pounding the zone with his fastball for called strikes and inducing plenty of playable batted balls. The 25-year-old left-hander now has an excellent 103:24 K:BB over 109.2 innings of work this season. He will look for his 11th win of the year when he takes the mound next week at San Francisco.

Alex Cobb SP | DET
Giants' Alex Cobb: Strikes out 11 in hard-luck loss
Cobb (3-5) allowed a run on three hits, a walk and a hit batter while striking out 11 in six innings, taking the loss Friday versus the Cubs.
Cobb allowed a solo home run to Patrick Wisdom in the fifth inning, which accounted for the only run in the game before the ninth. The Cubs added three more in the final frame, and the Giants' comeback effort fell short. Cobb recorded quality starts in four of his six outings in July, allowing 13 runs (11 earned) across 36 innings. He's gone 10 starts without a win despite pitching well. For the season, he owns a 4.06 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 85:23 K:BB through 82 innings in 16 appearances. The right-hander is lined up for a tough home start versus the Dodgers next week.
