Gomber came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Diamondbacks, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out four.

The 30-year-old lefty produced his first quality start of the season, no mean feat at Coors Field, and exited the game after 98 pitches (61 strikes) in line for his first win of the season. The Rockies' bullpen couldn't seal the deal, however. Gomber will carry a 4.91 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB through 14.2 innings into his next start, which lines up for a road tilt early next week in Philadelphia.

Henry came away with an no-decision in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Rockies, giving up three runs (two earned) on four hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out six.

A two-run homer by Michael Toglia in the fourth inning accounted for most of the damage off Henry, who exited the game after 95 pitches (62 strikes). The results could have been far worse at Coors Field, but the southpaw has still been taken deep in all three of his starts to begin the season and has a 5.79 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB through 14 innings. He'll look for his first win of 2024 in his next outing, likely to come early next week at home against the Cubs.

Lopez and the Twins won't play Thursday against the Tigers after the game was postponed because of inclement weather in Detroit.

The two clubs will make up the contest as part of a straight doubleheader Saturday. Lopez and Tarik Skubal -- who had also been scheduled to start Thursday -- will both be pushed back a day in the pitching schedule to start Friday's series opener.

MIley did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's win over the Reds, allowing one run on one hit and two walks over four innings.

Miley was solid in his return from the 15-day-injured list (shoulder), allowing just one hit over his four innings of work while going 1-2-3 through Cincinnati's lineup in two of those frames. On the downside, the veteran lefty did issue two walks over that stretch while also hitting Jeimer Candelario with a pitch with two outs in the fourth. Miley will look to put together a cleaner outing next week when the Brewers host the Padres in Milwaukee.

Greene (0-1) took the loss against the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing six runs on six hits and one walk over six innings while striking out nine.

Greene had command issues from the jump, walking Jackson Chourio in the opening at-bat before surrendering a two-run shot to Christian Yelich on a hanging slider just two batters later. The right-hander then hit Jake Bauers with a pitch to open the second, which would eventually lead to three more runs coming home for Milwaukee in the frame. Greene had not allowed more than two runs in either of his first two starts and was also yet to surrender a home run prior to Wednesday's matchup, but saw his ERA climb to 4.86 with the dreadful outing. On a positive note, he did still manage to go six innings for the second straight start and retire eight of the final nine batters while also recording a season-high nine strikeouts in the contest.

Cease (1-1) pitched six innings in a win over the Cubs on Wednesday, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out seven.

Cease was in control from the start Wednesday, striking out the first two batters he faced and allowing just two hits and a walk over the first four innings. Unfortunately, one of those hits went for a home run to score two runs for Chicago following a previous fielding error from Ha-Seong Kim, though those would be the only runs to come across for the Cubs in the contest. The right-hander allowed only two hits on the day and has now registered a 14:4 K:BB through two starts this month, going six innings in each of those outings. The home run in Wednesday's game was also the first he's allowed in three starts to open the campaign.

Fedde allowed five runs (four earned) on four hits over five innings but did not factor into the decision as the White Sox fell to Cleveland on Wednesday. He struck out three and issued three walks.

Fedde appeared to be rolling early as the White Sox jumped out to a 5-0 lead, retiring 10 of the first 12 batters he faced in the contest. However, things began to unravel in the bottom of the fourth when the right-hander surrendered a solo homer to Josh Naylor with one out, followed by a two-run shot off the bat of Josh's brother Bo Naylor just three batters later. Fedde allowed three long balls on the day, the second time in three starts in which he's allowed multiple home runs. On a positive note, the right-hander was able to make it through five innings for the second straight start and still has not suffered a loss on the season.

Bibee (1-0) pitched 4.1 innings during Wednesday's win over the White Sox, allowing five runs on six hits while walking three and striking out two. He didn't factor in the decision

Bibee was victimized by Gavin Sheets early as the first baseman doubled home a run in the first inning and then launched a three-run shot in the third to put the Guardians in an early 5-0 hole. The 25-year-old right-hander was unable to make it through five innings for the second time in his first three starts, allowing a season-high five earned runs, though he managed to avoid the loss thanks to Cleveland's late comeback. He'll look to lower his 5.93 ERA next week when the Guardians travel to Boston to take on the Red Sox.

Stripling (0-3) took the loss against the Rangers on Wednesday, allowing six runs on 11 hits and three walks while striking out five batters over six innings.

Stripling took a tough-luck loss despite allowing just one run over seven innings against Boston his last time out, but he was much more responsible for his third loss of the campaign Wednesday. The veteran right-hander allowed 14 baserunners, and it was somewhat surprising that he was able to last six frames on 97 pitches given that amount of traffic. Stripling has at least been able to eat innings for Oakland this year -- he's averaging 6.0 frames per start through three appearances -- but his 5.50 ERA, 1.72 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB aren't appealing for fantasy purposes.
