  • Kevin Gausman SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Kevin Gausman: Fans eight in seventh win

    Gausman (7-7) recorded the win Monday against the Yankees, giving up one run on four hits and two walks in seven innings. He struck out eight.

    Gausman threw at least five innings in his fifth straight start, and he also racked up at least eight punchouts for the fifth time this season. Monday represented the sixth instance of the year where the veteran right-hander hurled at least six innings while yielding one run or fewer as well. Gausman owns a respectable 4.01 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 112:36 K:BB across 116.2 innings, and he's next set to face a difficult task this weekend against the first-place Tigers in Detroit.

  • Keaton Winn SP | SF

    Giants' Keaton Winn: Reinstated from 7-day IL

    Winn (undisclosed) struck out a batter and allowed one hit and two walks over a scoreless inning Friday for Triple-A Sacramento after being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

    Winn was shut down April 22 due to an unspecified injury and made four rehab appearances before being reinstated coming out of the All-Star break. The 27-year-old righty has a spot on the Giants' 40-man roster, but he's likely far away from getting another look in the big leagues.

  • Dietrich Enns RP | BAL

    Tigers' Dietrich Enns: Continues to pitch well in relief

    Enns tossed 2.2 scoreless innings of relief in Monday's 3-0 loss to the Pirates. He allowed three hits and struck out three.

    Enns has now made three appearances out of Detroit's bullpen, and he's yet to allow any runs across seven innings of work. The lefty didn't fare as well in two starts for the Tigers, but he could be settling in as an effective long reliever. While the improved performance is promising, Enns is in a fairly low-leverage role with limited fantasy upside at the moment, though he could take on more prominent work if he continues to pitch well.

  • Paul Skenes P | PIT

    Pirates' Paul Skenes: Fires six scoreless in win

    Skenes (5-8) earned the win against the Tigers on Monday, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out six over six scoreless innings.

    Despite reports that his innings could be managed down the stretch, Skenes needed just 86 pitches to log his first quality start since June 19 and first win since May 28. The All-Star starter has been dominant in July, allowing just two earned runs with a stellar 27:2 K:BB over four outings. He'll carry a 1.91 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 137:31 K:BB across 127 innings into a home matchup with the Diamondbacks this weekend.

  • Red Sox's Walker Buehler: Seven strong frames in Philadelphia

    Buehler didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Phillies, giving up two runs (one earned) on six hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out four.

    Buehler tallied his second straight quality start and just his sixth of the season so far, and he pounded the zone for 61 strikes among his 89 pitches. Monday also marked the third time this year that the 30-year-old right-hander tossed at least six innings while allowing one earned run or fewer, but he's failed to post at least five punchouts in any of his last six outings. Buehler holds a 5.72 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 67:36 K:BB over 85 frames, and he remains a mostly hit-or-miss fantasy option ahead of a scary matchup versus the Dodgers slated for this weekend.

  • Zack Wheeler SP | PHI

    Phillies' Zack Wheeler: Piles up 10 more strikeouts

    Wheeler didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Red Sox, giving up two runs on seven hits and no walks in six innings. He struck out 10.

    Wheeler registered double-digit strikeouts for the third time in his last four starts, also recording a whopping 22 whiffs in the process. The All-Star right-hander has now thrown at least five innings in each of his first 20 outings of the season and continues to be a workhorse in Philadelphia's rotation, having now reached the century mark in pitches on 12 occasions as well. Wheeler sports a 2.39 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 164:26 K:BB over 128 frames, and his next appearance is slated for this weekend in a tough matchup against the Yankees in the Bronx.

  • Jose Corniell SP | TEX

    Rangers' Jose Corniell: Debuts for Double-A club

    Corniell (elbow) struck out a batter over two perfect innings Saturday for Double-A Frisco after being reinstated from its 60-day injured list.

    After being optioned to the minors early in spring training, Corniell had spent all season on Frisco's IL while recovering from UCL surgery, which he underwent last June. He was given the green light to join Frisco after completing four rehab appearances in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League earlier this month, but Corniell had his workload monitored carefully in his debut for the Rangers' Double-A affiliate.

  • Aiden May SP | MIA

    Marlins' Aiden May: Excelling in FCL

    May (elbow) has collected five strikeouts over four scoreless innings over three appearances in the Florida Complex League this season.

    May spent the majority of the first half of the season rehabbing from arthroscopic elbow surgery. He's been nearly perfect since returning to the mound, issuing just one walk in three outings.

  • Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Called up Monday

    Henriquez was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

    Henriquez will join the major-league roster for the first time this season after posting a 5.89 ERA and 1.71 WHIP with 26 strikeouts over 18.1 innings in 18 appearances, including two starts, with Oklahoma City this season. The right-hander allowed one run on two hits and two walks, while striking out five batters over 3.1 innings with Los Angeles in 2024. Lou Trivino was designated for assignment Monday, opening a spot for Henriquez in the Dodgers' bullpen.

  • Bryce Miller SP | SEA

    Mariners' Bryce Miller: Another live BP on Friday

    Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said Monday that Miller (elbow) will throw another live batting practice session Friday before beginning a rehab assignment, Tim Booth of The Seattle Times reports.

    Miller came out of a live BP session Saturday with no issues but will need to face hitters once more before being cleared for rehab games. He's been sidelined since early June with right elbow inflammation and could require at least a couple rehab starts before rejoining the Mariners' rotation.
