  • Ryan Feltner SP | COL

    Rockies' Ryan Feltner: Allows two runs in no-decision

    Feltner did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and four walks over six innings against the Red Sox. He struck out two.

    Feltner was a bit wild, surrendering a season-high four walks, but he limited the damage to just two runs in the sixth inning. The elevated walk totals and lack of strikeout stuff remain concerns for the right-hander, but there's no denying he has yielded improved results since returning from right ulnar nerve inflammation at the end of May, compiling a 3.67 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 27 innings over his past five starts. Feltner will carry a 2-2 record with a 4.79 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 35:20 K:BB across 47 innings (10 starts) into his next outing, tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Twins.

  • Merrill Kelly SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Merrill Kelly: Suffers seventh loss

    Kelly (5-7) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings against St. Louis. He struck out two.

    Kelly ran into some trouble in the third and fourth innings but was able to mitigate the damage fairly well and record a quality start, though a lack of offense from Arizona saddled the 37-year-old with the loss. The right-hander has had spurts of success but has mostly struggled in 2026, posting a 5.71 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 44:31 K:BB across 75.2 innings (13 starts). Having lost each of his four most recent starts, Kelly will look to reverse that trend in his next outing, tentatively scheduled for Saturday at Tampa Bay.

  • Andre Pallante SP | STL

    Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Logs six innings in ninth win

    Pallante (9-4) earned the win Monday, allowing one run on six hits and no walks over six innings against Arizona. He struck out two.

    Pallante's winning ways continued Monday, as he kept the Arizona offense quiet to earn his fourth straight victory. His two strikeouts matched a season low, though the right-hander has never relied on swing-and-miss stuff and instead thrives by generating groundballs. The 27-year-old owns a 3.59 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 64:25 K:BB across 82.2 innings (15 starts) and is tentatively scheduled to face Miami on Saturday.

  • Gavin Williams SP | CLE

    Guardians' Gavin Williams: Strikes out eight in no-decision

    Williams did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk over five innings against the White Sox. He struck out eight.

    Williams allowed a run in the second inning and another in the third frame, but he did a nice job of limiting the damage and avoiding crooked numbers. After logging at least six innings in eight starts entering June, the right-hander has failed to complete six innings in any of his four starts this month, topping out at 5.1 frames. Overall, the 26-year-old owns a 9-4 record with a 3.82 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 111:31 K:BB across 96.2 innings (16 starts) and is lined up to face the Mariners on Sunday.

  • Anthony Kay SP | CHW

    White Sox's Anthony Kay: Tosses six scoreless frames Monday

    Kay did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing three hits, two walks and a hit-by-pitch over six scoreless innings against the Guardians. He struck out eight.

    Kay pitched well enough to earn the win Monday, recording a season-high eight strikeouts and not allowing an earned run for the third time this season, though bullpen troubles ultimately cost the southpaw a victory. The outing marked a positive step in the right direction for the 31-year-old, who entered with an 8.31 ERA and 1.62 WHIP across 13 innings in his first three starts of June. He'll take a 6-2 record with a 4.24 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 63:30 K:BB across 76.1 innings (16 appearances) into his next outing, which is lined up for the weekend against the Royals.

  • Grant Holmes SP | ATL

    Braves' Grant Holmes: Inefficient in tough-luck loss

    Holmes (4-4) allowed one run on three hits and five walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings to take the loss versus San Diego on Monday.

    Holmes threw 53 of 91 pitches for strikes. Manny Machado's solo shot in the fourth inning was the lone run, but Holmes' five walks were a season high that made this outing worse than what the runs column would suggest. The right-hander's June has been a bit disrupted, with a short start versus the White Sox on June 9 before his last outing was abbreviated by rain against the Giants. He's given up nine runs over 16.1 innings with a 12:12 K:BB over his four starts this month. Overall, Holmes has a 4.17 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 65:37 K:BB across 73.1 innings through 15 starts. Until he can trim down his 4.5 BB/9, he'll be a risky option in fantasy. Holmes' next start is projected to be in San Francisco over the weekend.

  • Michael King SP | SD

    Padres' Michael King: Bounces back for fifth win

    King (5-6) allowed six hits and struck out five without walking a batter over seven shutout innings to earn the win over Atlanta on Monday.

    King had given up at least three runs in each of his previous five starts, a span that including two where he didn't complete five frames. He responded Monday by matching his longest outing of the season to snap the skid. The right-hander is now at a 3.33 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 78:35 K:BB through 92 innings over 16 starts. He's been streaky at times in 2026, so this outing might help to get him back on track. King is projected to make his next start at home in a tough matchup versus the Dodgers.

  • Angels' Sam Aldegheri: Surrenders five runs

    Aldegheri (2-3) allowed five runs on five hits and a walk while striking out three over 4.2 innings to take the loss versus the Orioles on Monday.

    Keeping the ball down was a problem. Taylor Ward led off the game with a home run, and Coby Mayo added a three-run blast in the fourth inning that did most of the damage to Aldegheri's line. He's now allowed 11 runs over his last 7.2 innings. On the season, the southpaw has a 5.47 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 16:12 K:BB through 24.2 innings over seven appearances (four starts). Aldegheri is tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Athletics.

  • Kyle Bradish SP | BAL

    Orioles' Kyle Bradish: Tosses eight scoreless frames

    Bradish (5-7) allowed six hits and a walk while striking out nine over eight scoreless innings to earn the win over the Angels on Monday.

    Bradish threw 67 of 101 pitches for strikes. It's the second outing in a row where he's set a season high in innings, and he's added a 21:3 K:BB over 15.2 frames in that span. Bradish has had a couple of bumpy stretches in 2026, but he's locked in right now. The right-hander is at a 3.64 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 94:42 K:BB over 89 innings across 16 starts. His next start is expected to be at home in a tough matchup against the high-scoring Nationals.

  • Zebby Matthews SP | MIN

    Twins' Zebby Matthews: Takes tough-luck loss

    Matthews (3-5) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters over six innings in a loss to the Dodgers on Monday.

    Matthews gave up solo homers to Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman but otherwise held Los Angeles scoreless. However, Minnesota's offense managed just one run of support, saddling the right-hander with his fifth loss of the season. Despite the defeat, there were positives to take away from the performance for Matthews, as he notched his second straight quality start (and third over his past four outings) while finishing with his highest strikeout total through four starts in June. Matthews next lines up to take the mound at home against the Rockies.
