Peterson (7-8) took the loss against the Brewers on Wednesday, allowing six runs on seven hits and four walks in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

The southpaw never quite got going Wednesday, surrendering a pair of runs in the opening frame and being scored upon in three of the four innings he worked. It marked just the third time through 12 appearances that Peterson conceded more than two runs in a Cubs uniform. Chicago plans to bring Edward Cabrera (blister) back as a reliever eventually, positioning Peterson for a rotation spot the rest of the way. He'll carry a 4.58 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 50:26 K:BB over 59 innings with Chicago into a road rematch with Milwaukee.

Sandoval (1-4) took the loss Wednesday against the Mariners, allowing four runs (three earned) on five hits and three walks over four innings. He struck out two.

After holding Seattle scoreless through two innings, things fell apart for Sandoval in the third, when the Mariners put up four runs, including three that came with two outs. Sandoval has now dropped four of his last five starts despite holding opponents to two runs or fewer in three of those outings. Overall, his ERA sits at 4.41 with a 1.73 WHIP and 50:25 K:BB through 10 starts (49 innings). Sandoval currently lines up to face the Angels at home his next time out.

Misiorowski took a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday, allowing five runs on five hits and four walks in four innings. He struck out five.

It was a rare misstep for the National League Cy Young frontrunner, who coughed up a season-high five runs Wednesday. The outing stopped Misiorowski's streak of starts with three earned runs or fewer at 25, and the five punchouts matched a season low as well. Still, he responded well with two scoreless frames after Chicago jumped on him during the first two innings. He'll be looking to get back on track in a home rematch with the Cubs next week, still boasting a 1.97 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 227:39 K:BB over 155 innings.

Rogers allowed two runs on six hits and no walks over 6.2 innings in a no-decision Wednesday against the Rockies. He struck out 11.

After he was tagged for six runs in five innings his last time out, Rogers rebounded with a dominant performance Wednesday, as he set a season high with 11 strikeouts. The left-hander's ERA now sits at 4.30 across 26 starts (144.1 innings) this season with a 1.23 WHIP and 132:37 K:BB. Rogers currently lines up to face the Guardians at home in his next outing.

Sugano did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out four.

It was a nice bounce-back outing from Sugano, who gave up 17 earned runs over just 12 innings in his previous three outings. Overall, Sugano is 12-8 this season with a 5.19 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 79:30 K:BB across 25 starts (131.2 innings). The right-hander is currently lined up to face the Yankees on the road his next time out.

Perez took a no-decision against the Royals on Wednesday, allowing six runs on nine hits and three walks in 4.2 innings. He struck out three.

It was tough sledding from the get-go for Perez, who let in five runs in the opening frame and served up a season-high three home runs after conceding just one in his previous 10 appearances. The hard-throwing right-hander is beginning to struggle on the mound -- he's given up 11 runs in his past two starts after yielding 11 earned runs in his nine outings prior to that stretch. He'll look to bounce back his next time out versus the Mets, still holding a strong 3.72 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 145:59 K:BB over a career-high 135.1 innings.

Cameron took a no-decision against the Marlins on Wednesday, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk in five innings. He struck out seven.

The Royals scored five runs in the first inning to support Cameron, but the hurler was still unable to come away with the win. It was a rare slip-up given the left-hander's recent results, as he allowed more than two runs Wednesday for just the second time in his last eight outings. He'll take a 4.08 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 138:49 K:BB over 154.1 innings into his next scheduled start versus Arizona.

Chandler allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four across five innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Wednesday.

Chandler put the Pirates on the back foot early after yielding a solo homer to Rafael Devers in the first inning. Chandler bounced back to retire the next six batters he faced before giving up another two runs in the fifth, but he received enough run support to avoid the loss. The 23-year-old right-hander has allowed at least three earned runs in two of his last three outings and has a 4.30 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 136 innings this season. His 71 walks issued are third most in the majors behind only Robbie Ray (73) and Joey Cantillo (72). Chandler is tentatively slated to start next week on the road against the White Sox.

Roupp did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Pirates, allowing one run on two hits and two walks while striking out four across five innings.

Roupp got himself into a bases-loaded situation in the fourth inning, but he limited the damage to one run on a two-out, bases-loaded walk. He's allowed one run in back-to-back outings and three times over his last five starts, leaving him with a 4.17 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 137:68 K:BB over 144.2 innings this season. Roupp is slated to take on the Cardinals next week in what projects to be the first of a two-start week.

Hagenman allowed one run on two hits and one walk while striking out two across three innings in a no-decision against the Rays on Wednesday.

Wednesday was Hagenman's season debut for the Mets, with the 29-year-old right-hander starting the year on the injured list due to a fractured rib. He kept the Rays off the board through the first two innings before giving up an RBI single to Jonathan Aranda in the third. Hagenman tossed only 46 pitches (26 strikes), though that's not entirely surprising given his lengthy stint on the IL. He figures to shift to the bullpen in a long-relief role since Jonah Tong is expected to start for the Mets next week against the Marlins, per Mike Puma of the New York Post.
