Oviedo allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks over seven innings in Monday's win over the Athletics. He struck out five and did not factor in the decision,

Oviedo gave up three runs through three innings before settling in for a quality start. He turned in his longest outing since April and has allowed three or fewer runs in five straight starts. He's registered a 2.57 ERA during that span, dropping his season number down to 4.29 through 65 frames. Oviedo is currently projected to face the Mets at home this weekend.

Bielak (3-2) allowed three runs on 10 hits and a walk over 6.2 innings Monday, striking out two and earning a win over the Blue Jays.

It wasn't a very clean outing for Bielak but he was given six runs of support before throwing his first pitch so he cruised to an easy win. He tied his longest outing of the year despite punching out just two batters. The 27-year-old righty is carrying a 3.35 ERA and a 30:13 K:BB through 37.2 frames. Bielak is currently lined up to start in Cleveland this weekend.

Manoah (1-7) allowed six runs on seven hits and a walk while taking a loss against Houston on Monday. He recorded just one out.

In what's been a year full of struggles, Manoah turned in his worst and shortest start of the season. He's fallen to 0-7 with a brutal 6.85 ERA over his last 10 starts while completing at least six innings just once during that stretch. The 25-year-old has produced a 48:42 K:BB and an outrageous 1.90 WHIP through 58 innings. Manoah is currently lined up for a home tilt with the Twins this weekend.

Garrett (2-2) earned the win Monday, allowing four runs on six hits over five innings against Kansas City. He struck out six.

Garrett got off to an inauspicious start, allowing four runs over his first two innings. However, he'd manage to hold the Royals at bay while the Marlins rallied to overcome a 4-0 deficit and pick up the win. The 25-year-old Garrett had been pitching well coming into Monday's outing, holding opponents to two runs or fewer in his last four starts. Garrett sports a 4.47 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP and 60:12 K:BB over 12 starts (58.1 innings) this season.

Wentz (1-6) yielded five runs on seven hits and five walks over 4.2 innings Monday, striking out four and taking a loss against the Phillies.

Wentz never settled into a groove Monday and was taken deep twice by Trea Turner. Over his last four starts, Wentz has allowed at least five runs three times while going 0-3. His ERA has ballooned up to 7.49 with a 44:22 K:BB through 51.2 frames. Assuming he gets another turn in the rotation, he's currently lined up to see the Diamondbacks at home.

Nola (5-4) allowed three unearned runs on one hit and three walks over seven innings Monday, striking out 12 and earning a win over Detroit.

Nola carried a no-hitter through 6.2 frames before coughing up a three-run homer. He wasn't tagged with any earned runs though, dropping his ERA to 4.30 after his best outing of the year. The 30-year-old also forced a season-high 21 swinging strikes, including 10 with his fastball. Prior to Monday's outing, Nola had allowed at least four runs in three of his last four appearances. He's currently lined up for a home matchup with the Dodgers this weekend.

Choi (forearm) allowed four hits and struck out two across three scoreless innings Wednesday against High-A Beloit.

Choi has looked sharp to begin the 2023 campaign and has yet to surrender a run over a pair of starts. He's fired six scoreless frames, striking out four while failing to issue a free pass over six innings of work.

Bello (3-4) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings against the Rays. He struck out five.

Bello notched his third quality start of the season, though he ultimately took a third consecutive loss against Tampa Bay. The 24-year-old Bello had quietly put together a solid run of starts, despite the losing streak -- he hadn't allowed more than two earned runs in his previous six outings, pitching to a 2.53 ERA in that span. He now sports a 3.97 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP and 46:15 K:BB through nine starts (45.1 innings) this season.

McClanahan (9-1) earned the win Monday, allowing a run on five hits and two walks over six innings against the Red Sox. He struck out five.

McLanahan has only allowed more than two runs once in 13 starts this season. The lone blemish on his line Monday came on Justin Turner's solo home run in the sixth inning. McLanahan now boasts a pristine 2.02 ERA with a 1.15 WHIP and 87:29 K:BB over 75.2 innings this season. He'll look for a 10th win in his next outing, tentatively lined up for this weekend against a powerful Rangers offense.

Acker (undisclosed) was reinstated from High-A Hickory's 7-day injured list May 24 and has covered five innings while striking out seven and allowing two earned runs on four hits and three walks over his first two starts of the 2023 season.

Acker missed about seven weeks of action to begin the 2023 campaign due to an unspecified injury, but he's active at Hickory again and appears to be gradually ramping up his pitch count. The 24-year-old right-hander struggled in his first taste of High-A ball in 2022, logging a 10.66 ERA and 2.13 WHIP in 12.2 innings over four starts.
