The Dodgers selected Pepiot's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday in Pittsburgh, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Los Angeles designated reliever Robbie Erlin for assignment to clear room for Pepiot on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster. Pepiot will be making his MLB debut Wednesday and earned the promotion after turning in a 2.05 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 36:12 K:BB across 26.1 innings with Triple-A Oklahoma City on the campaign.

Corbin didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Mets, giving up three hits and four walks over five scoreless innings. He struck out five.

The veteran southpaw wasn't efficient, tossing 51 of 86 pitches for strikes before exiting, but he left the game with a 2-0 lead only to watch the Washington bullpen cough it up. Corbin has looked much better over his last three starts with a 2.37 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB through 19 innings, but his poor 19.9 percent strikeout rate and career-worst 10.9 percent walk rate on the season indicate how thin his margin for error can be.

Carrasco (3-1) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on seven hits over 6.2 innings in a 4-2 victory over the Nationals. He struck out five without walking a batter.

The veteran right-hander fired 57 of 83 pitches for strikes en route to his second straight quality start and his third of the year. Carrasco isn't as dominant as he was in his Cleveland heyday, but he looks healthy and has posted a strong 3.19 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB through 36.2 innings.

Greene (1-5) took the loss Tuesday as the Reds fell 5-4 to the Brewers, giving up two runs on four hits and four walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out six.

While the rookie right-hander once again displayed shaky command and control -- walking at least four batters for the third time in his last four starts and serving up his 11th homer in 26 innings -- Greene was at least able to limit the damage in this one. His 27.6 percent strikeout rate remains enticing, but until the rest of the 22-year-old's skills catch up to his 98.4 mph fastball, he'll be a very risky fantasy option. Greene will carry a 7.62 ERA and 1.81 WHIP into his next start.

Peralta (2-1) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over 5.2 innings while striking out eight in a 5-4 victory over the Reds.

The right-hander fell just short of his second quality start of the season, leaving after 96 pitches (58 strikes) with two runners on in the sixth inning and the Brewers holding a 3-1 lead. Peralta has turned things around after a bumpy start to 2022, and over his last four outings he boasts a 2.08 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 28:5 K:BB through 21.2 innings -- although it's worth noting he faced the Reds twice and the Pirates once during that stretch.

Gonsolin (3-0) picked up the win Tuesday, giving up one hit and four walks over five scoreless innings in an 11-1 victory over the Pirates. He struck out five.

The right-hander wasn't exactly sharp, tossing 49 of 84 pitches before exiting, but Pittsburgh couldn't make much solid contact against Gonsolin and his offense handed him a 2-0 lead before he even stepped on the mound. He's lasted six frames only once in six starts and his 21.1 percent strikeout rate is a career low, but Gonsolin's still managed to post a 1.33 ERA and 1.07 WHIP through 27 innings.

Snell (groin) completed five innings for Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out seven to earn the win.

In his third minor-league rehab appearance -- and first at the Triple-A level -- Snell extended to five frames and tossed 59 pitches. The latter number was seven pitches fewer than he threw in his previous rehab outing, but Snell was more effective Tuesday in limiting his opponent to just one run. The Padres haven't yet announced the next step for the left-hander, though manager Bob Melvin has suggested that this was likely his final rehab start, per Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune.

Nola (1-4) took the loss during Tuesday's 5-4 defeat at the hands of the Mariners, allowing five runs (four earned) on nine hits and one walk with six strikeouts in 5.1 innings.

Nola fell behind early by surrendering four hits and two runs in the first inning with additional runs coming around in the second and sixth. Despite a quality 3.83 ERA and 1.00 WHIP from Nola to this point, Philadelphia has managed to lose all six of his starts since Opening Day. A 2.59 xERA and 2.56 xFIP suggest he should improve some going forward, with a tentative start Sunday against the Dodgers being the next opportunity.

Luzardo (2-3) took the loss during Tuesday's 9-3 defeat at the hands of the Diamondbacks, allowing four runs on two hits and four walks with six strikeouts in 2.2 innings.

Luzardo got off to a rocky start by surrendering a walk and a home run before recording an out in the first inning. He then put two more on via free passes in the third, with both runners coming around to score. The 24-year-old has compiled nearly as many walks (16) as hits (18) this year, though he's whiffed an impressive 41 in 29 innings and recorded six of eight outs via strikeout Tuesday. He's projected to toe the rubber again early next week against the Nationals.

Miley didn't factor into the decision during Tuesday's 5-4 loss to San Diego, allowing three runs on five hits and five walks with one strikeout in three innings.

After being sidelined for the first month of the season with an elbow injury, Miley pitched poorly from the start. He surrendered five baserunners and two runs in the first then three baserunners and one run in the third, with all of the damage coming with two outs in both innings. The 35-year-old found the zone with only 37 of 64 pitches and induced just four swinging strikes. Miley will look to rebound in his next start, which tentatively lines up for next week against Pittsburgh.
