Detmers allowed one run on six hits and struck out eight without walking a batter over seven innings in a no-decision Wednesday versus the Yankees.

The Angels moved back to a five-man rotation when George Klassen (back) landed on the injured list, pressing Detmers into action against the Yankees. Detmers delivered another gem for his fifth straight quality start, but he still wasn't as good as Cam Schlittler, who pitched eight innings of one-run, two-hit ball. With just three runs allowed over his last 33 innings and a 32:5 K:BB in that span, Detmers is setting himself up to end the year strong. He's maintained a 3.44 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 182:44 K:BB over 162 innings through 28 starts, but playing on the Angels has left him with a 4-8 record. It won't be any easier in his next outing, which is projected to be in Boston.

Schlittler allowed one run on two hits and struck out nine without walking a batter over eight innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Wednesday.

Schlittler deserved better than a no-decision, but the Yankees' offense didn't come alive until the 10th inning. He's allowed one run or less in six of his last seven outings, giving up a mere nine runs over his last 41.1 innings with a 53:17 K:BB in that span. The 25-year-old continues to dazzle in his star-making second season, pitching to a 2.04 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 210:42 K:BB across 171.2 innings through 29 starts so far. He's projected for a favorable home start against the Rockies in his next outing.

Martin allowed five hits and a walk while striking out three over 5.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Wednesday.

Martin missed just under three weeks due to a blister on his right middle finger but returned to action Wednesday with no apparent issues. The right-hander put in a good performance, but he wasn't quite as sharp as opposing starter Hayden Wesneski, who turned in seven scoreless frames in the pitching duel. Martin's performance was volatile prior to his absence, as he carried an 8.03 ERA over 24.2 innings across his previous six starts. He's posted a 4.13 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 114:40 K:BB through 130.2 innings over 25 starts this year. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Pirates.

Wesneski allowed one hit, two walks and one hit batsman while striking out five over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the White Sox on Wednesday.

Wesneski threw 58 of 90 pitches for strikes while matching his longest outing of the season by innings. He was just alright initially after his return from Tommy John surgery in late July, but he's taken a dominant turn with just one run allowed over his last 17 innings, during which he has a 15:7 K:BB. Wesneski is at a 3.18 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 33:14 K:BB through 39.2 innings over seven starts this year. He's lined up for another challenging matchup early next week in Philadelphia.

Kremer took a no-decision against the Tigers on Wednesday, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks in four-plus innings. He struck out five.

Detroit did its damage in the second and fifth innings, plating a pair of runs in each frame. After giving up just one run in each of his first two starts with the Twins, Kremer has since conceded at least four runs in three of his past four outings. The right-hander will try to right the ship in a rematch with the Tigers in Detroit, where he'll bring a 4.99 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 28:13 K:BB over 30.2 innings with Minnesota.

Miller did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing a run on seven hits and a walk across 4.2 innings. He struck out three.

After he was demoted to the bullpen last week, the right-hander quickly rejoined the M's starting rotation after Emerson Hancock (groin) landed on the IL. Miller was limited to 65 pitches Wednesday, as he managed to work his way through traffic to hold Boston to one run. Overall, it was a step in the right direction for Miller, who struggled to a 9.00 ERA across 20 frames in his previous four starts. He'll carry a 4.01 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 95:26 K:BB into his next outing, tentatively scheduled to come at home against the Rangers.

Peterson (7-8) took the loss against the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing six runs on seven hits and four walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

The southpaw never quite got going Wednesday, surrendering a pair of runs in the opening frame and being scored upon in three of the four innings he worked. It marked just the third time through 12 appearances that Peterson conceded more than two runs in a Cubs uniform. Chicago plans to bring Edward Cabrera (blister) back as a reliever eventually, positioning Peterson for a rotation spot the rest of the way. He'll carry a 4.58 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 50:26 K:BB over 59 innings with Chicago into a road rematch with Milwaukee.

Sandoval (1-4) took the loss Wednesday against the Mariners, allowing four runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks over four innings. He struck out two.

After holding Seattle scoreless through two innings, things fell apart for Sandoval in the third, when the Mariners put up four runs, including three that came with two outs. Sandoval has now dropped four of his last five starts despite holding opponents to two runs or fewer in three of those outings. Overall, his ERA sits at 4.41 with a 1.73 WHIP and 50:25 K:BB through 10 starts (49 innings). Sandoval currently lines up to face the Angels at home his next time out.

Misiorowski took a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday, allowing five runs on five hits and four walks in four innings. He struck out five.

It was a rare misstep for the National League Cy Young frontrunner, who coughed up a season-high five runs Wednesday. The outing stopped Misiorowski's streak of starts with three earned runs or fewer at 25, and the five punchouts matched a season low as well. Still, he responded well with two scoreless frames after Chicago jumped on him during the first two innings. He'll be looking to get back on track in a home rematch with the Cubs next week, still boasting a 1.97 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 227:39 K:BB over 155 innings.

Rogers allowed two runs on six hits and no walks over 6.2 innings in a no-decision Wednesday against the Rockies. He struck out 11.

After he was tagged for six runs in five innings his last time out, Rogers rebounded with a dominant performance Wednesday, as he set a season high with 11 strikeouts. The left-hander's ERA now sits at 4.30 across 26 starts (144.1 innings) this season with a 1.23 WHIP and 132:37 K:BB. Rogers currently lines up to face the Guardians at home in his next outing.
