Corbin (0-4) allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out eight across six innings to take the loss Thursday against the Marlins.

Corbin turned in his longest outing of the season and picked up an impressive 14 swinging strikes on 90 pitches. He allowed only one unearned run through six innings, but he came out to begin the seventh frame and both runners he faced reached base and ultimately came around to score. Despite the positive start, Corbin has now walked multiple batters in every appearance this season and has a 23:13 K:BB across 19.2 innings to go along with an 8.69 ERA.

Miley (elbow) will throw again at some point this weekend, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Miley threw 46 pitches in a live batting practice session Wednesday, and it appears that he is feeling well one day after. After his weekend session, the team will move forward with the next step in his progression, which could be another live BP or even a minor-league rehab assignment.

Mahle (1-3) took the loss to the Padres on Thursday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

Mahle allowed a first-inning run but was able to settle down and scattered two hits across the next four innings. However, he surrendered a leadoff double to Manny Machado in the sixth and was taken out after walking Eric Hosmer. Both runners came around to score as the Padres notched a four-run sixth inning to reclaim the lead. After tossing five scoreless in his first outing, Mahle has allowed multiple runs in four consecutive outings and has taken the loss in each of his last three starts.

Quintana allowed one run on four hits across five innings and didn't factor in the decision during Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Brewers. He had nine strikeouts and zero walks

Quintana allowed a leadoff home run to Andrew McCutchen, but the veteran lefty settled down and tossed five strong innings, including a season-high nine strikeouts. Across his first four starts with Pittsburgh, Quintana has a 3.32 ERA and 17:8 K:BB across 19 frames. His next start is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday in Detroit.

Peralta tossed six scoreless innings on three hits and zero walks during Thursday's 3-2 win over the Pirates. He struck out seven and did not factor in the decision.

After a bumpy start to the campaign, Peralta has allowed just six hits and one run over his last 11 innings. He currently sports a 5.00 ERA and a 23:8 K:BB across 18 total innings. His next start is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday against the Reds.

Flaherty (shoulder) advanced to throwing off flat ground from 240 feet Wednesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Since he was cleared to begin a throwing program about two weeks ago, Flaherty hasn't hit any snags in his recovery from right shoulder inflammation. Although he's playing long toss, the right-hander isn't expected to resume throwing off a mound until after the first week in May, per John Denton of MLB.com. Since he was sidelined for all of spring training, Flaherty may need another month to fully build up for starting duty before he makes his return from the 10-day injured list.

Lodolo (back) is expected to return from the 10-day injured list next weekend against the Pirates, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Lodolo hit the injured list Thursday with a lower-back strain, but it looks as though he's on track to miss just one start. He was able to play catch Thursday and is expected to resume throwing off the mound again soon, possibly this weekend. He'll be eligible to make his return from the IL on May 6 and should be back on that date or a day or two afterward.

Through three starts for Single-A Clearwater, Painter hasn't allowed an earned run with a 0.58 WHIP and a 30:3 K:BB over 12 innings.

Yes, you read that right -- the 19-year-old has a 22.5 K/9 right now. In his most recent outing, Painter faced 16 batters and struck out 14 of them, allowing just a single hit. While it's worth bearing in mind that Painter is very young and likely still years away from the big leagues, he's sure to get bumped to High-A in no time if he keeps dominating the competition like this.

Morton didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-3 extra-inning loss to the Cubs, giving up three runs on four hits and four walks over 2.1 innings. He struck out one.

The veteran right-hander got taken off the hook for his third loss of the year when Atlanta tied things up in the eighth inning, but this was still an uncharacteristically poor outing from Morton, who had lasted at least five innings in each of his first three starts of 2022. Control seems to be his biggest issue right now, as he's walked 10 batters while striking out only 10 in his last 12.2 innings, though Morton's track record should provide some reassurance his 7.00 ERA and 1.78 WHIP on the season will come down.

Lopez (3-0) picked up the win in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over the Nationals, scattering three hits and a walk over six scoreless innings while striking out six.

A two-out double by Yadiel Hernandez in the fourth inning accounted for the only baserunner to get into scoring position, as Lopez delivered another dominant performance. The right-hander extended his scoreless streak to 18.1 innings, as he hasn't given up a run since the final frame of his first start of the year. Lopez will carry a minuscule 0.39 ERA, 0,73 WHIP and 23:4 K:BB through 23.1 IP into his next outing.
