Peralta (4-1) yielded two hits and a walk over six scoreless innings Sunday, striking out eight and earning the win over Atlanta.

Peralta picked up a victory despite Milwaukee's bullpen coughing up nine runs in just three innings thanks to a 10-run outburst by the offense. He allowed just two singles and only one Atlanta runner reached scoring position against him. Over his last two starts, the 24-year-old has struck out 18 batters while allowing three hits over 13 shutout frames. He's now sporting a terrific 2.40 ERA and 69:19 K:BB across 45 innings this season. Peralta is currently lined up to take the mound in Cincinnati next weekend.

Ynoa (4-2) allowed five runs on nine hits and two walks over 4.1 innings Sunday, striking out six and taking a loss against Milwaukee.

Ynoa simply couldn't get through an easy inning Sunday. He managed to escape the first two frames without allowing a run despite putting runners in scoring position. The 22-year-old righty then gave up a two-run double in the third and another RBI double in the fourth before he was removed shortly after serving up a two-run blast to Avisail Garcia in the fifth. Ynoa had allowed just four runs over his previous 24.1 frames and still owns a strong 3.02 ERA this season. He'll look for better results in his projected start at home against the Pirates next weekend.

Garrett was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

The 23-year-old was called up by Miami on Saturday and surrendered three runs over three frames in his season debut. Garrett will head to Triple-A for now but figures to rejoin the Marlins at some point later in the year.

DeGrom (side) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

The 32-year-old was able to play catch Friday and will return to mound work Tuesday, one week after being placed on the injured list. DeGrom could return from the injured list Friday in Miami if all goes well during the bullpen session.

Anderson didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 8-6 win over the Giants, giving up four runs on six hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out seven.

The southpaw got taken deep by Darin Ruf and Brandon Crawford in the first inning, putting him in a quick 3-0 hole, and Anderson left the game in line for his fourth loss before a late rally by Pittsburgh got him off the hook. The outing snapped a string of three straight quality starts for Anderson, and he sports a 3.50 ERA and surprisingly solid 44:14 K:BB through 46.1 innings on the season.

Cueto didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Pirates, allowing two runs on eight hits over 4.1 innings. He struck out two without walking a batter.

The veteran righty got handed an early lead and held the Bucs scoreless for four innings, but Cueto benefited from two double plays behind him and when his luck finally ran out in the fifth, he got the hook. It's the second straight start in which he's given up eight hits while failing to complete five innings. Cueto will take a 3.62 ERA and 22:5 K:BB through 27.1 innings into his next outing.

Williams didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 9-8 extra-inning loss to the Tigers, giving up three runs on two hits and two walks over two innings. He struck out two.

The right-hander got staked to a 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning but immediately squandered it by coughing up three runs in the bottom of the frame, and after Williams escaped another jam in the second, Cubs manager David Ross had seen enough. Williams hadn't lasted longer than four innings in any of his last three starts, with the rough patch ballooning his ERA to 6.27, and his 11.4 percent walk rate on the year is the worst of his career.

Paddack did not factor in the decision against St. Louis on Saturday. He hurled four innings, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out two.

The right-hander was effective in the outing, but a high pitch count prevented him from picking up his second win. Paddack's only allowed run of the game came as the result of a Yadier Molina home run in the fourth inning, and he did not allow any additional extra-base hits. He is tentatively slated to next take the mound at home against Seattle next week.

Wainwright (2-4) took the loss against San Diego on Saturday as a result of allowing six runs on eight hits and three walks over four innings. He struck out two.

Wainwright did not have great control in the contest, as he threw only 52 of 92 pitches for strikes. However, his biggest problem was the long ball -- he allowed three home runs, accounting for five of the eight runs scored against him. The right-hander's start was his poorest since he yielded six runs across 2.2 innings in his first start of the campaign. He'll carry a less-than-desirable 4.63 ERA into his next start, which is tentatively scheduled to come at home against the Cubs on Friday.

Anderson (3-1) earned the win Saturday against the Brewers after allowing one run on two hits and four walks while fanning four across six innings.

Anderson had a few command issues that resulted in four walks -- tying his season-high mark --but still limited the damage to just one run allowed and he's now allowed one or fewer runs in three of his last five appearances. The right-hander owns a 4.50 ERA and will try to build off this performance when he takes the ball next week at home against the Pirates.
