Detmers allowed two hits and two walks while striking out six over six scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Friday.

Detmers threw 58 of 91 pitches for strikes while dueling with Roki Sasaki in a low-scoring game. Over his last three starts, Detmers has allowed just four runs on eight hits and five walks while racking up 27 strikeouts across 19 innings. There's still some volatility, and playing for the Angels makes wins hard to come by. He's at a 4.26 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 88:24 K:BB through 74 innings across 13 starts this season. The southpaw's next start is projected to be at home versus the Astros.

Sasaki allowed two hits and two walks while striking out 10 over seven shutout innings in a no-decision Friday versus the Angels.

Sasaki had his best start of the season, but a rare quiet showing from the Dodgers' bats kept him from earning the win. He's been on a roll lately, allowing just five runs (four earned) with a 29:5 K:BB over 24.1 innings across his last four starts. Overall, Sasaki is at a 4.03 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 60:21 K:BB through 58 innings over 11 starts. His next start is projected to be on the road versus the White Sox.

Kelly (5-4) allowed seven runs on six hits, three walks and a hit batsman while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Nationals on Friday.

Kelly had a strong May, but his first start in June was a dud. He allowed three home runs, which accounted for four of the seven runs on his line in his first loss since May 3 versus the Cubs. Kelly is now at a 5.71 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 37:25 K:BB through 58.1 innings over 10 starts this season. His next start is projected to be on the road versus the Marlins.

Griffin (7-2) allowed one run on two hits and no walks while striking out four over five innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Griffin's lone mistake ended up being an Aramis Garcia solo shot in the third inning. The long ball has been a problem for Griffin at times, as he's allowed eight of them over his last five starts, a span in which he's given up 18 runs across 25.1 innings. For the season, the southpaw has a serviceable 3.63 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 69:21 K:BB across 72 innings through 13 starts. His next start is slated to be a favorable road matchup in San Francisco.

Scott (2-0) allowed three hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.2 shutout innings to earn the win over the Padres on Friday.

Scott threw 67 of 98 pitches for strikes in this contest. Over his last three starts, he's covered 16.1 innings, allowing just one run on 12 hits and six walks with 16 strikeouts in that span. Scott has a 2.50 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 41:18 K:BB through 36 innings across eight starts this season. The right-hander is projected to make his next start at home against the Cardinals. Scott looks to have done enough to keep his spot in the rotation when Kodai Senga (back) returns, as David Peterson has moved to the bullpen and Jonah Tong was reassigned to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

King (4-5) allowed four runs on six hits and no walks while striking out four over six innings to take the loss Friday versus the Mets.

Three of the four runs on his line came via home runs by Jared Young and Luis Torrens. This was just the second time all season King has allowed multiple homers, though he has been taken deep in three straight outings. In that span, a three-game losing streak, he's given up a total of 13 runs over 15.2 innings. On the year, King has a 3.41 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 69:29 K:BB through 74 innings over 13 starts. The right-hander's next start is projected to be at home versus the Reds.

Sproat did not factor into the decision in Friday's 9-7 extra-inning win over the Rockies, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks with two strikeouts over five innings.

Sproat gave up a run in each of the first three innings before finishing with two scoreless frames, throwing just 51 of 87 pitches for strikes and yielding 11 hard-hit balls. It was the 25-year-old's longest outing since logging 5.1 innings May 12, though he's now allowed at least three earned runs in five straight starts during that stretch. He'll take a 6.17 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 54:29 K:BB over 54 innings into a road matchup against the Athletics next week.

Feltner did not factor into the decision in Friday's 9-7 extra-inning loss to the Brewers, allowing one run on one hit and two walks with four strikeouts over six innings.

Feltner allowed a run in the second inning but otherwise kept a dangerous Brewers lineup in check, throwing 51 of 81 pitches for strikes while generating eight whiffs. The outing gave the 29-year-old back-to-back quality starts, both of which have come at Coors Field, since returning from the injured list Saturday. He owns a 4.22 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB across 32 innings this season and lines up for another home matchup against the Cubs next week.

Wacha (4-4) took the loss against the Twins on Friday, allowing five runs (four earned) on eight hits and no walks with two strikeouts over 5.2 innings.

Wacha entered the sixth inning at just 54 pitches with a 2-1 lead, but he unraveled for four runs while failing to complete the frame. After reeling off five straight quality starts from May 4 through May 25, the veteran right-hander has surrendered 10 earned runs over his past two outings. He still owns a solid 3.44 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 67:26 K:BB across 81 innings and will take those numbers into a home matchup against the Rangers next week.

Matthews (2-3) earned the win against the Royals on Friday, allowing two runs on five hits and four walks with two strikeouts over seven innings.

Matthews yielded two runs in the first inning but kept the Royals off the board over his final six frames despite throwing just 57 of 100 pitches for strikes and generating only six whiffs. The final line was a welcome rebound from the seven-run blowup he endured Sunday, and the 26-year-old has now recorded a quality start in four of his five outings this season. He'll take a 4.15 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 26:8 K:BB across 30.1 innings into a road matchup against the Tigers next week.
