Yamamoto allowed three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six batters over seven innings in a no-decision against Colorado on Monday.

Yamamoto bounced back from a rocky start his previous time on the mound, when he gave up six runs over 4.2 innings against the Angels. The All-Star hurler couldn't hold an early 2-0 lead Monday, but he gave up just one extra-base hit (an Ezequiel Tovar solo homer) and recorded 12 whiffs along with six punchouts. Yamamoto has fallen behind in the NL Cy Young Award race, but he still ranks among the senior circuit's top pitchers in several categories, including ERA (2.90, ninth), WHIP (1.08, eighth) and strikeouts (151, 11th).

Williams (8-4) allowed four hits and one walk while striking out five over 5.1 innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Monday.

Williams was back on track Monday after giving up four runs over three innings in his previous start. He's allowed just five runs in 23 innings across four starts in August, adding a 23:8 K:BB in that span. The right-hander has had some trouble with walks throughout the season, and getting that issue under control has likely helped his performance this month. Overall, he has a 3.24 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 132:68 K:BB through 133.1 innings over 25 starts. Williams is projected for a road start versus the Rangers this weekend.

Peralta (15-5) earned the win over the Cubs on Monday, allowing one hit and issuing three walks while striking out six batters over six scoreless innings.

Peralta was dominant in what was slated to be the first game of a doubleheader (Game 2 ended up being postponed), cruising through six scoreless frames on 95 pitches. The only hit he allowed was a first-inning single by Seiya Suzuki, and all three free passes he issued came to consecutive batters in the fourth. Peralta recovered from that wild stretch to retire the final eight batters he faced, finishing with his second straight scoreless quality start. The right-hander is in the midst of a career-best campaign -- he leads MLB with a career-high 15 victories and ranks 15th with 154 punchouts over 142.2 frames. Peralta's 2.78 ERA is on pace for a career-best mark.

Strider (5-11) took the loss Monday against the White Sox, allowing seven runs on 10 hits and one walk in three innings. He struck out two.

Strider has been out of sorts since he was scratched from his scheduled Aug. 2 appearance against the Reds due to rain. The right-hander has given up at least eight hits and five runs in all of his last three starts, and he's failed to throw at least five innings in each of those outings. Strider now has a ghastly 6.92 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 45:16 K:BB over his last 40.1 frames since the beginning of July, and he's shaping up as a risky fantasy option against a formidable Mets lineup this weekend.

Leiter (7-7) took the loss Monday against the Royals, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out five.

Limiting free passes remains a major issue for Leiter, who walked multiple batters in his eighth consecutive start. The six hits allowed were also his most since his June 29 outing against the Mariners, and the hard-throwing right-hander served up multiple home runs for the first time since his June 17 appearance against these same Royals. Leiter has a shaky 3.62 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 43:25 K:BB across 37.1 innings since the beginning of July, but he's next set to face a Guardians team that has an underwhelming .650 OPS since the beginning of August.

Wacha (8-9) notched the win Monday against Texas, allowing two runs on nine hits and no walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out three.

The nine hits allowed were Wacha's most since his June 30 start in Seattle, though that didn't stop him from tossing at least five innings while surrendering two runs or fewer in his seventh straight outing. The veteran right-hander continues to put together a steady campaign for the Royals, as he's given up greater than three runs on just five occasions among 25 appearances. Wacha owns a solid 3.34 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 104:37 K:BB across 142.2 frames, though a tough test against the first-place Tigers is on tap for this weekend.

Gilbert (3-5) took the loss Monday at Philadelphia, allowing six runs on nine hits and no walks over two innings. He struck out one.

The Seattle right-hander looked like a shell of the pitcher who entered this contest with a 3.31 ERA across 89.2 frames. Gilbert allowed five or more runs for the first time in 18 starts this season, as he equaled the shortest outing of his career -- previously done when he pitched two innings June 26, 2021. The Phillies tallied all six of their runs, including two homers, in the second to chase Gilbert after 65 pitches. He now sports a 3.83 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 125:23 K:BB across 91.2 total innings. Gilbert will look to bounce back in his next start, which is currently scheduled to come at home against the Athletics this weekend.

Suarez (9-6) allowed two runs on four hits and no walks over 6.2 innings to earn the win Monday against Seattle. He struck out 10.

Suarez reached the double-digit K mark for the first time this season out of 19 total starts, as he generated a solid 13 whiffs out of his 102 pitches. The Philadelphia southpaw blanked the Mariners over 6.2 frames but then gave up a solo homer and a hit-by-pitch to wrap his performance (the stranded runner subsequently scored on a homer conceded by reliever Jordan Romano). Through 119 total innings, Suarez has pitched to a 3.25 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 111:29 K:BB while allowing 10 long balls. The 29-year-old is slated to make his next start at home against the Nationals this weekend.

Gausman allowed two runs on five hits and two walks over five innings while not factoring into the decision in Monday's 5-2 loss at Pittsburgh. He struck out four.

The veteran right-hander limited the damage in this 96-pitch performance, as he allowed just one extra-base hit -- a Spencer Horwitz double in the third. Despite a five-run blowup against Kansas City on Aug. 1, Gausman has been a dependable starter since the All-Star break, producing a 2.61 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 38:8 K:BB across 38 frames. In 147.2 total innings, the 34-year-old has pitched to a 3.78 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 142:42 K:BB while yielding 19 homers. He is currently scheduled to make his next start at Miami this weekend.

Freeland left Monday's start against the Dodgers due to an apparent blister on his pitching hand, Manny Randhawa of MLB.com reports. He allowed two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five over four innings before departing.

Freeland tried to go back out for a fifth inning of work but walked back to the clubhouse after it became clear he couldn't fight through the issue any longer. It's currently unclear if the issue will cause the southpaw to miss his next turn through the rotation, which tentatively lines up for Saturday in Pittsburgh.
