Wrobleski (6-2) was tagged with the loss Friday against the Brewers after allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks across five innings. He struck out four.

Wrobleski endured a rough start to the game, allowing four runs in the first inning, including a three-run shot to William Contreras. The lefty would allow just one run the rest of the way, but the damage was already done against one of the hottest offenses in the NL of late. Wrobleski has been trending in the wrong direction, giving up 14 runs (including three homers) in 19.2 frames over his past three outings. His next start should come next week in a favorable home matchup against the Rockies.

Martin (7-1) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over 5.2 innings to earn the win over the Giants on Friday.

A nine-run fourth inning by the White Sox bought plenty of breathing room for Martin. He used up some of it over the next two frames, but the Giants never made a real threat to erase the deficit. The four runs allowed were a season high, and this was the first time Martin's given up multiple runs since April 10 versus the Royals. He also fell short of a quality start for just the third time in 10 outings. He has a 2.04 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 66:12 K:BB through 61.2 innings in what's been an impressive breakout campaign, albeit with few truly challenging matchups on his game log. Martin's next start is projected to be at home versus the Twins.

McDonald (2-1) allowed seven runs on three hits, one walk and two hit batsmen while striking out four over 3.2 innings to take the loss versus the White Sox on Friday.

McDonald was perfect the first time through the order but completely unraveled in the fourth inning. He was pulled after giving up five runs, but Ryan Borucki also struggled, allowing two inherited runners to score. This was a terrible time for McDonald to have a bad start, as it came on the same day Logan Webb (knee) was making his first, and likely only, rehab start. McDonald is now at a 4.76 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 21:4 K:BB through 22.2 innings over four starts in the majors this year. His performance Friday likely made the Giants' decision easier when they need to clear a 26-man roster spot for Webb's return next week, though an official decision from the team is likely a few days away.

Soroka allowed one run on four hits and a hit batsman while striking out two without walking a batter over six innings in a no-decision Friday versus the Rockies.

Soroka didn't have his best strikeout stuff, but he gave the Rockies little to work with. He's allowed just four runs over 24.1 innings in May, adding a 21:5 K:BB this month. Soroka has given up two runs or fewer in eight of his 10 starts overall, pitching to a 3.27 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 57:14 K:BB through 55 innings. This is the closest he's looked to his promising early years before injuries ravaged his career, but durability remains the biggest question for the right-hander. He'll look to keep rolling with a projected road start in San Francisco next week.

Sugano allowed two runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three over 6.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Sugano gave up a run in each of the second and fourth innings, but the Rockies' late rallies in the eighth and ninth frames got him off the hook. This was his third quality start of the season, and his first such effort since April 10 versus the Padres. That's mostly come down to not pitching particularly deep into games, though he's had a few bumpy starts after doing impressive work in March and April. The 36-year-old right-hander is at a 3.86 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 28:15 K:BB through 53.2 innings over 10 starts this season. That meager strikeout rate, combined with a brutal home park, will continue to depress Sugano's fantasy appeal. Sugano's next start is projected to be a tough one on the road versus the Dodgers.

Buehler allowed three runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over five innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Friday.

Buehler allowed two runs in the first inning and another in the fourth. He was able to avoid giving up a home run for the first time in four starts, but the Padres' offense didn't show up in time to give him a chance at the win. The four walks were a season high for the right-hander. He's at a 5.05 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 41:18 K:BB through 46.1 innings over 10 starts this season. Buehler's next outing is projected to be at home versus the Phillies.

Springs (3-5) allowed four runs on three hits and three walks while striking out three over 6.1 innings to take the loss versus the Padres on Friday.

Springs was tagged for three home runs in the contest, with Ramon Laureano's solo shot in the seventh being the difference. This was Springs' third straight loss, and he's allowed nine runs (eight earned) over 17.1 innings in that span. For the season, he has a 4.11 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 50:19 K:BB through 61.1 innings across 11 starts. Springs was sharp to start the year, but all 11 homers he's allowed have come over his last seven games, a span in which he's gone 0-5. He'll try to right the ship in his next start, which is projected to come at home versus the Mariners.

The Mets are expected to recall Pintaro from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Pintaro already has one MLB appearance under his belt from last season, though it ended with him allowing two runs on two hits and two walks while logging one strikeout in two-thirds of an inning. He's had far more success to begin the year at Triple-A, posting a 2.81 ERA and 1.15 WHIP alongside a 32:12 K:BB through 25.2 innings. His notable improvement will now buy him another look in the big leagues, where he'll likely work as a multi-inning reliever.

Tolle did not factor into the decision in Friday's 8-6 loss to the Twins, allowing three runs on four hits and two walks with nine strikeouts over six innings.

Tolle labored through a three-run second inning but was otherwise dominant, generating 15 whiffs on 85 pitches while limiting the Twins to just one extra-base hit. Through six major-league outings this season, the 23-year-old has delivered four quality starts while holding opponents to three earned runs or fewer each time out. He'll take a strong 2.45 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 39:9 K:BB across 36.2 innings into a tough test at home against Atlanta next week.

Prielipp did not factor into the decision in Friday's 8-6 win over the Red Sox, allowing six runs (five earned) on seven hits and three walks with one strikeout over four innings.

Prielipp yielded four runs in the first frame and struggled with his command overall, throwing just 49 of 85 pitches for strikes with only seven whiffs. It was the first major hiccup of the season for the rookie, who entered Friday having allowed two earned runs or fewer in each of his first five major-league outings. He now owns a 4.03 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 30:12 K:BB across 29 innings and will aim to bounce back in a road matchup against the White Sox next week.
