Joe Musgrove SP | SD
Padres' Joe Musgrove: Earns fourth win
Musgrove (4-2) allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out five over six innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Guardians.
Musgrove allowed multiple runs for the first time in four starts, but he also picked up his third quality start over that span. The right-hander has started to more regularly get through six innings after failing to do so in his first five starts of the season. He's now at a 4.37 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 47:14 K:BB over 47.1 innings through nine starts. Musgrove is lined up for a tougher home start versus the Rays this weekend.

Yonny Chirinos SP | MIA
Rays' Yonny Chirinos: Pitches well Tuesday
Chirinos allowed two hits and a walk while striking out two over 3.2 scoreless innings Tuesday versus the Athletics. He did not factor in the decision.
Chirinos covered the most innings of the five pitchers the Rays used in a 2-1 loss. This was his first scoreless outing since April 23. It's unclear if Chirinos will be deployed as a traditional starter or work behind an opener going forward. He's pitched to a 2.35 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 17:12 K:BB through 38.1 innings over nine appearances (two starts) this season. Regardless of the usage, he's lined up for a weekend appearance on the road in San Diego if he remains a part of the Rays' rotation.

Luis Severino SP | ATH
Yankees' Luis Severino: Tagged for six in no-decision
Severino did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing six runs on seven hits and three walks over 4.2 innings in a 7-6 victory over the Mets. He struck out four.
Severino needed 104 pitches to get through 4.2 innings after allowing four runs over his first two frames. The 29-year-old right-hander has struggled mightily of late, allowing 17 runs through 13.2 innings in his last three starts. Severino is 0-1 with a 6.48 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 22:10 K:BB through his first five starts (25 innings) this season. He'll look to get on track in his next start, tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Red Sox.

Pirates' Osvaldo Bido: Will get first MLB start Wednesday
The Pirates will call up Bido from Triple-A Indianapolis to start Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.
The 27-year-old will be making his MLB debut Wednesday after registering a 4.55 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 56:26 K:BB in 55.1 innings with Indianapolis this season. Even against a mediocre Chicago lineup, Bido profiles as a risky streaming option for fantasy purposes, given his so-so numbers at Triple-A and lack of a prior MLB track record.

Eric Lauer SP | LAD
Brewers' Eric Lauer: Optioned after coming off IL
Milwaukee reinstated Lauer (shoulder) off the 10-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. "We want to get him right, to be healthy and be a contributor," Brewers general manager Matt Arnold said.
Lauer was placed on the 15-day injured list May 22 with an impingement in his non-throwing shoulder, and the southpaw struggled in his rehab start Sunday with Nashville, allowing seven runs (five earned) in two innings. Lauer was an effective part of the Milwaukee rotation in 2022, but he'll remain in the PCL until the Brewers deem him worthy of a roster spot again this summer.

Jordan Lyles RP | KC
Royals' Jordan Lyles: Hit hard for 11th loss
Lyles (0-11) took the loss Tuesday, allowing five runs on five hits and three walks over six innings against Cincinnati. He struck out four.
Lyles struggled to find the zone all evening, as just 51 of his 94 pitches went for strikes. All five runs allowed came in the second inning, as the Reds were able to bat around and took a lead they would not relinquish. Although Lyles did not allow a home run in the outing, he has been especially victimized by them all season, giving up two or more homers in seven of his 13 starts. His next scheduled start is slated for Monday against the Tigers.

Brandon Williamson SP | CIN
Reds' Brandon Williamson: Records first big-league win
Williamson (1-0) earned the win Tuesday, allowing four runs on seven hits over five innings in a 5-4 victory over the Royals. He struck out one.
After not factoring into the decision in his first five starts, Williamson was finally able to secure his first victory Tuesday. The young southpaw gave up runs in each of his first three innings before settling down the rest of the way. Williamson was able to induce just seven swinging strikes on the evening, although he did throw 51 of his 78 pitches for strikes. He is scheduled to start during a three-game set against the Rockies next week.

Dean Kremer SP | MIN
Orioles' Dean Kremer: Notches seventh win
Kremer (7-3) earned the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on eight hits over six innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out six.
It was a solid bounce-back effort from Kremer after he allowed six runs in a loss to Milwaukee in his last outing. While the 27-year-old Kremer's record is impressive, he still sports a mediocre 4.74 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP and 65:19 K:BB through 14 starts (76 innings) this season. His 47 percent hard-hit rate also ranks in the bottom ninth percentile in the league. Still, Kremer has provided some stability in the Orioles' rotation. He's currently in line to face the Cubs on the road this weekend.

Chris Bassitt SP | BAL
Blue Jays' Chris Bassitt: Hit hard in Baltimore
Bassitt (7-5) took the loss Tuesday, allowing eight runs on 11 hits and a walk over three innings against Baltimore. He struck out five.
All of the damage against Bassitt came via the home-run ball -- a pair of two-run shots before Gunnar Henderson blasted a grand slam in the third inning. It was a tough night for the 34-year-old Bassitt, who allowed just two runs in 15.2 innings over his previous two outings. His ERA is now up to 4.02 to go with a 1.13 WHIP and 75:2 K:BB through 14 starts (85 innings) this season. Bassitt is currently lined up for a tough road matchup against the Rangers in his next outing.

Reese Olson SP | DET
Tigers' Reese Olson: Start vs. Atlanta postponed
Olson's scheduled start versus Atlanta on Tuesday was postponed due to inclement weather, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
Olson was scheduled to square off against Spencer Strider, but the poor weather in Detroit won't allows that to happen Tuesday. The game will be made up Wednesday with the two teams playing a straight doubleheader, and it's likely both will be involved in one of the two contests.
