Wesneski (1-0) allowed three runs on seven hits, two walks and a hit batsman while striking out four over 5.2 innings to earn the win over the Angels on Wednesday.

Wesneski made his first major-league appearance since May of 2025, completing his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The right-hander showed some rust, but he took advantage of a favorable matchup to get the win while throwing 52 of 79 pitches for strikes. It wouldn't be surprising for Wesneski to operate with a slight workload restriction for a few more starts. He is tentatively lined up for a home start versus the Blue Jays next week.

Rodriguez allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Wednesday.

Rodriguez put together his best outing of the month, but he still allowed multiple home runs, giving up solo shots to Yainer Diaz and Jeremy Pena. He left in line for the win, but the Angels' bullpen failed to protect the lead. Rodriguez remains an inconsistent performer this year -- he's allowed three runs or less in just five of his 10 starts. Overall, he has a 7.98 ERA, 1.75 WHIP and 36:21 K:BB this season, and he's also surrendered nine homers through 44 innings. He's projected to get a look at his former team, the Orioles, in a road start next week.

Schlittler took a no-decision Wednesday against the White Sox, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in 6.1 innings. He struck out eight.

Schlittler was cruising along until the seventh inning, when Andrew Benintendi hit an RBI double to both get the White Sox on the board and chase Schlittler from the hill. The All-Star right-hander added to his breakout campaign with a strong month of July, tossing at least 6.1 innings while yielding two runs or fewer in four of his five starts on the month. Schlittler is set to carry a 2.04 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 165:26 K:BB over 136.2 innings into a favorable home draw against the Cardinals in his next start.

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

Martin was in line for the loss Wednesday, giving up all of his four runs in the opening inning, but the hurler taken off the hook when the White Sox rallied for four runs across the seventh and eighth frames. The right-hander has fared poorly since the beginning of June, posting a 5.84 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 35:21 K:BB over his last 10 starts (49.1 innings). Martin is hanging onto what's still a respectable 3.62 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 106:35 K:BB over 117 frames overall, but things may not get any easier with a tough assignment in Boston on tap for his next outing.

Singer (5-10) took the loss against Cleveland on Wednesday, allowing four runs (all unearned) on six hits and four walks while striking out three across 4.1 innings.

After a nice streak of three starts of more than six innings, Singer stumbled in the 6-1 loss to the Guardians, throwing only 58 of his 100 pitches for strikes and walking in two runs. It ends a run of four straight starts of at least five innings for the righty. Singer is now tied for the MLB lead with 10 losses on the year, though his 4.35 ERA and 1.42 WHIP through 107.2 innings likely aren't deserving of that loss total.

Cantillo took a no-decision Wednesday against the Reds, allowing no runs on four hits and a walk while striking out eight over four innings.

Cantillo wasn't exactly efficient as he threw just 53 of his 89 pitches for strikes, but he generated multiple strikeouts in three of his four frames to help break a two-start losing streak. The 26-year-old got into jams in the first and fourth innings but escaped unscathed as he continues to excel with runners in scoring position, as the .189 average against him in those situations leads MLB. The lefty is slated to make his next start at home against the Mets.

Hughes (0-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Padres, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk across five innings. He struck out two.

Hughes was sharp early, as he held San Diego to just one hit through his first three innings. However, things would unravel in the fourth, when the rookie right-hander allowed the first four batters to reach safely, ultimately giving up three runs. Through his first 24.1 big-league innings, Hughes sports a 3.33 ERA with a 1.19 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB. He's currently lined up to face the Rays at home his next time out.

Canning (2-9) earned the win Wednesday over the Rockies, allowing one hit and no walks across three scoreless innings. He struck out four.

Working in a bulk role again, Canning looked much better Wednesday, holding Colorado to a lone single en route to his second win of the season and first since June 17. It was an impressive bounce-back showing from the right-hander, who had given up nine runs (eight earned) across just 6.1 frames in his previous two appearances. Canning's ERA now sits at 6.65 on the season with a 1.57 WHIP and 67:32 K:BB across 65 innings.

Boyd took a no-decision Wednesday against the Cardinals, allowing no runs on four hits and two walks in seven innings. He struck out five.

Boyd engaged in a pitching duel with St. Louis right-hander Dustin May, who did fire five shutout innings, but Boyd was even better with seven scoreless frames. The 35-year-old southpaw notably escaped a bases-loaded jam in the sixth inning unscathed, and he's now pitched at least six frames in five straight outings while logging four quality starts during that span. Boyd is lined up for a tough test his next time out against the Dodgers, holding a strong 3.41 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 60:19 K:BB over 66 innings.

Webb (6-7) earned the win Wednesday over Milwaukee, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out four.

It's just the second win for Webb in his last seven outings -- the right-hander had been slumping coming into the day, posting a 7.54 ERA across 22.2 innings in his prior four starts. Webb's ERA now sits at 3.93 across 19 starts (119 innings) this season with a 1.12 WHIP and 93:30 K:BB. He's currently lined up to face the Rangers on the road his next time out.
