Hendricks (5-7) took the loss Tuesday against the Mets, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk in 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

The veteran right-hander had been cruising along until the fifth inning, when the Mets tagged him for three runs on four hits during the frame. It was still the seventh consecutive start with one walk or fewer for Hendricks, but he's fanned more than five on just one occasion during this stretch. Hendricks will bring an uninspiring 4.92 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 67:25 K:BB across 100.2 innings into his next scheduled outing, currently set to come this weekend at home versus the division-rival Mariners.

Schlittler didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against Toronto, allowing two runs on seven hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out three.

Schlittler was able to complete five frames in his second straight start to begin his major-league career. Additionally, the rookie right-hander touched 99 mph with his fastball four times while inducing a respectable nine whiffs. It's unknown if he'll stay in New York's rotation once Luis Gil (lat) is ready to come off his rehab assignment, but Schlittler's next start is tentatively projected for next week at home versus the Rays.

Scherzer didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Yankees, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk in five innings. He struck out four.

The Yankees ambushed the veteran hurler for three runs in the opening frame, but Scherzer was able to settle in for four innings of one-run ball thereafter. Four of his five hits allowed went for extra bases, and the 40-year-old right-hander has yet to yield fewer than two runs in any of his first six starts this season. Scherzer will try to improve on a 5.14 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 28:8 K:BB over 28 innings in his next scheduled outing, which is slated for this weekend in Detroit against the first-place Tigers.

Manager Kevin Cash said McClanahan (triceps) won't make his rehab start as scheduled Thursday due to biceps soreness, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

The Rays will be "pulling back" on the left-hander's throwing for a few days, though it's worth noting that the biceps issue isn't believed to be related to the nerve problems in his triceps that landed him on the injured list in late March. McClanahan appeared to be tracking toward making his season debut in early August, but it's unclear how long the setback will delay his return.

Manager Bruce Bochy said Eovaldi (back) will either start Wednesday against the Athletics or Friday versus Atlanta, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

The veteran right-hander said Tuesday that he's ready to take the mound Wednesday versus the A's, but the skipper indicated that the organization is still deciding on its pitching plans. Eovaldi was scratched from Sunday's scheduled start due to back tightness, an issue which no longer appears to be a concern.

Interim manager Tony Mansolino said Eflin (back) will be reinstated from the injured list to start Wednesday against the Guardians, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

The veteran right-hander has been sidelined nearly a month due to lower-back discomfort but is ready to rejoin the O's after making two rehab starts in the minors. Eflin threw 68 pitches over four innings during the second rehab outing and is likely to face some workload limitations in his first start back with Baltimore.

The Astros placed McCullers on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a blister on his right finger, retroactive to Sunday.

McCullers was lit up for four earned runs in just 2.2 innings during his last start Friday, and his move to the IL will ensure that his next outing doesn't come until at least early August. Nick Hernandez was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land to provide Houston with some extra bullpen depth, though it's currently unclear who will fill the open spot in the rotation.

Gordon is expected to be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Wednesday versus the Cardinals at Coors Field, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Gordon is set to join the rotation as a replacement for German Marquez (biceps), who is headed to the 15-day injured list. The 27-year-old righty has previously made three starts for Colorado this season, logging a 4.24 ERA and 1.35 WHIP in 17 innings.

Marquez said Tuesday that he has been diagnosed with right biceps tendon inflammation and is likely to land on the injured list, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Marquez sustained the injury in his start in Sunday's loss to the Twins. The Rockies haven't provided a timeline for Marquez's return, but he'll likely be out for longer than the minimum 15 days. The Rockies plan to recall Tanner Gordon from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday to replace Marquez on the 26-man active roster and in the rotation.

Cortes (elbow) is scheduled to make his next rehab appearance Thursday and is expected to throw around 90 pitches, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Cortes has thus far made three rehab appearances between High-A Wisconsin and Triple-A Nashville, covering 12.1 innings in total and striking out nine while allowing one run on six hits and two walks. Assuming he checks out fine physically following Thursday's outing, Cortes will likely be cleared to return from the 60-day injured list next week. Though all five of the Brewers' starting pitchers are pitching effectively at the moment, Milwaukee could expand to a six-man rotation in order to accommodate Cortes' return.
