Peralta (11-4) picked up the win Sunday against Washington, allowing one run on three hits and one walk over 6.2 innings. He struck out seven.

Peralta tallied a third consecutive quality start and pitched into the seventh inning for the first time since his second start of the season. The 29-year-old has come away with a win in six straight appearances, and he owns a 2.60 ERA and a 40:6 K:BB across 34.2 innings during that stretch. He's tied with Max Fried for the league lead in wins. Peralta is slated to pitch against the Dodgers next weekend.

Irvin (7-5) took the loss Sunday against Milwaukee, allowing three unearned runs on four hits and one walk across five innings. He struck out five.

Irvin got no run support in the loss, and all three runs the Brewers scored while he was on the mound came after a two-out error by Brady House. Sunday's outing snapped a streak of seven consecutive starts yielding a home run. Irvin had also walked at least three batters in each of his last three starts. The 28-year-old owns a 4.58 ERA and an 83:38 K:BB across 116 innings heading into the All-Star break.

Eovaldi (7-3) picked up the win Sunday against Houston, allowing one run on five hits and one walk over 7.2 innings. He struck out seven.

Eovaldi has been dominant this season, allowing no more than three runs in any outing. He's stepped up his game even more in July, yielding two runs (one earned) on 12 hits and two walks with 18 strikeouts across three starts. Sunday's appearance marked Eovaldi's first time pitching more than six innings since a month-long stay on the injured list that sidelined him for almost all of June. The 35-year-old has a 1.58 ERA entering the All-Star break, particularly noteworthy considering he hasn't posted an ERA below 3.63 in his career.

Brown (9-4) took the loss Sunday against Texas, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out eight.

Brown has allowed four or more runs in back-to-back starts -- something he had done just once in his first 17 appearances of 2025. Four of the five hits he surrendered Sunday went for extra bases. He'll look to rebound after the All-Star break, but even with the cold spell, Brown owns a stellar 2.43 ERA and a 137:34 K:BB across 115 innings.

Flaherty didn't factor into the decision Sunday against Seattle, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks with seven strikeouts over five innings.

Flaherty punched out at least seven batters for a fourth straight outing, and he hasn't allowed more than three runs in a start during that stretch. The four-start spurt has come immediately after a pair of appearances in which Flaherty allowed eight and seven runs, respectively. He owns a 4.65 ERA and a 124:40 K:BB across 100.2 innings this season, with his strikeout total ranking 15th in MLB.

Gilbert didn't factor into the decision Sunday against Detroit, allowing two unearned runs on six hits and two walks across 5.1 innings. He struck out nine.

Gilbert had allowed four earned runs in three of his last four starts, but he managed to slow down a strong Tigers offense Sunday. Both runs scored while Gilbert was on the mound came after an error in the first inning. Dillon Dingler delivered the blow with a two-RBI double. Since returning from the injured list June 16, Gilbert has a 4.40 ERA and a 44:9 K:BB across 30.2 innings.

Bello (6-3) earned the win in Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, yielding one run on six hits and no walks over 6.1 innings. He struck out five.

The only blemish on the Boston right-hander's performance came on a Josh Lowe sacrifice fly in the fourth inning, as he scattered one double and five singles. With this 105-pitch effort, during which he fired 73 strikes, Bello extended his recent stretch of solid pitching performances. Dating back to May 23, the 26-year-old has allowed fewer than three earned runs in 10 starts, a stretch where he's tallied seven quality starts and pitched to a 2.69 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 50:15 K:BB across 60.1 frames. Through 92.1 total innings, Bello sports a 3.14 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 70:34 K:BB.

Pepiot (6-7) took the loss Sunday at Boston, allowing four runs (three earned) on seven hits and one walk over six innings with three strikeouts.

Despite being stuck with the loss, Pepiot managed to notch his third consecutive quality start, pushing his season total to 13. The 27-year-old certainly did not have his sharpest stuff, as he managed to generate a subpar six whiffs out of his 88 total pitches. This performance also snapped a nine-start streak over which Pepiot had conceded five or fewer hits and pitched to a 2.60 ERA in 52 innings. Following this effort, the Tampa Bay right-hander enters the All-Star break with a 3.38 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 110:37 K:BB across 114.1 total frames.

Gray did not factor in the decision during Sunday's win over Atlanta. He allowed a run on three hits over three innings while striking out five.

Gray was working through a solid outing before a rain delay cut it short. He threw a pair of scoreless frames before yielding an RBI single to Matt Olson in the third inning. Since coughing up six runs in Milwaukee on June 12, Gray has posted a 2.54 ERA over 28.1 innings. He's produced a terrific 79:9 K:BB over his last 12 outings. Gray will carry a 3.50 ERA and a 118:19 K:BB into the All-Star break.

Holmes did not factor in the decision during Sunday's loss to Kansas City. He allowed two runs on five hits and a walk over five innings while striking out two.

Holmes coughed up a two-run double to John Rave in the second inning but otherwise didn't face much trouble. The Mets couldn't muster up any offense until the ninth inning, which prevented Holmes from taking a loss. He threw 50 of 81 pitches for strikes and generated seven whiffs, marking the sixth straight outing in which he failed to reach double-digit swinging strikes. Holmes will enter the All-Star break with a 3.31 ERA and an 83:41 K:BB across 103.1 innings.
