Webb (4-3) was handed the loss against Minnesota on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out nine batters over seven innings.

Webb pitched very well Saturday, racking up 10 whiffs and nine punchouts while holding the Twins to a two-run Trevor Larnach homer. However, opposing starter Joe Ryan and three relievers limited San Francisco to just one run, saddling Webb with his third loss in his past five starts. Despite the final outcome, the performance continued a recent strong stretch for Webb -- he's now notched four quality starts across his past five appearances. Fantasy managers who roster the right-hander should also be pleased with his punchout totals this season; after logging a K/9 no higher than 8.1 in each of his previous three campaigns, Webb in on track for a career-best mark with a 10.6 K/9 so far this season.

Ryan (3-2) earned the win over San Francisco on Saturday, allowing one run on two hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over six innings.

Ryan was originally slated to start Thursday against Baltimore, but he had to be pushed back due to an illness. The ailment may have contributed to Ryan being lifted after just 76 pitches Saturday -- he was shown laying on the dugout floor between innings, so he clearly wasn't 100 percent -- but it didn't affect his effectiveness. The right-hander induced 12 whiffs, fanned seven batters and gave up just one run -- on a Heliot Ramos homer -- while notching his third straight quality start. Over that three-game span, Ryan has given up just two runs over 19 innings while posting a 26:2 K:BB. On the season, he has a 2.74 ERA, 0.83 WHIP (third-best among qualified pitchers) and sterling 54:5 K:BB over 46 frames.

Francis allowed three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out five over 6.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Saturday.

Francis earned his third quality start of the season with this effort, which saw him throw 59 of 89 pitches for strikes. He had allowed 11 runs across his previous 7.1 innings before finding some success in Seattle. He's now at a 5.40 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 30:11 K:BB across 61.2 innings over eight starts this season. Francis is tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Tigers.

Sears didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 11-7 win over the Yankees, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out four.

The southpaw did serve up a solo shot to Aaron Judge in the fourth inning but otherwise held a potent New York lineup in check, tossing 50 of 82 pitches for strikes before exiting. Sears has given up two runs or fewer in five straight starts, and through 45 innings on the season he sports a 2.80 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 36:7 K:BB. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in San Francisco.

Rodon came away with a no-decision in Saturday's 11-7 loss to the A's, giving up four runs on eight hits over six innings. He struck out 10 without walking a batter.

Homers by Luis Urias in the second inning and Brent Rooker in the third accounted for all the damage off Rodon, who fanned double-digit batters for the first time this season thanks to 20 swinging strikes among his 98 pitches (67 total strikes). The veteran southpaw will take a 3.29 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 67:20 K:BB through 54.2 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Mets.

May (1-3) allowed two runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out five over 6.2 innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Diamondbacks.

May earned his third quality start of the season with his longest outing in 2025, but he didn't get any run support. The Dodgers managed just seven baserunners in the contest and couldn't scrape together a run, leaving May to take his second loss in a row. He's allowed 16 runs over 22.2 innings across his last four outings to spoil a strong start to the campaign. Overall, the right-hander has a 4.08 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 33:15 K:BB across 39.2 innings through seven starts. May's start next week will be at home, either against the Athletics or the Angels, depending on how the Dodgers align their rotation after Roki Sasaki struggled Friday in his first taste of pitching on five days' rest.

Bibee (3-3) took the loss against the Phillies on Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and no walks with three strikeouts over seven innings.

Bibee threw 63 of 96 pitches for strikes but received no run support from his offense, exiting with a 1-0 deficit. The 26-year-old endured a rocky start to the season but has since yielded only five earned runs over his last four outings. He owns a 3.80 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 31:16 K:BB across 45 innings and lines up for a road matchup with the Reds next weekend.

Suarez (1-0) earned the win against the Guardians on Saturday, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out five over seven scoreless innings.

Suarez was incredibly efficient, needing just 82 pitches to complete seven innings while generating 11 swinging strikes. It was an encouraging rebound after the southpaw yielded seven runs in his return from the injured list Sunday. He'll carry a 5.91 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 11:3 K:BB across 10.2 innings into a home matchup with the Pirates next weekend.

deGrom (3-1) earned the win against the Tigers on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk with 10 strikeouts over five innings.

deGrom surrendered a pair of solo homers but was otherwise dominant, racking up 21 whiffs on 90 pitches. The 36-year-old has won three straight contests while yielding two earned runs or fewer in each of his past five starts. He'll carry a 2.72 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 46:10 K:BB across 43 innings into a home matchup with the Astros next week.

Ryan (elbow) has resumed throwing off a mound but hasn't yet progressed to full bullpen sessions, per MLB.com.

Ryan is making gradual progress from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last August. A return to the big-league roster near the end of the regular season is a possibility if Ryan continues to proceed without any setbacks, but it's not a guarantee that he'll pitch for the Dodgers this season given the nature of his procedure.
