Bundy allowed a run on three hits and a walk with six strikeouts in five innings, taking a no-decision in Friday's extra-inning win over the White Sox.

Bundy allowed the first run of the game in the form of a Jose Abreu solo home run in the second inning. This was the first time in four starts Bundy's allowed a long ball, and he's given up six runs (five earned) in 24 innings in that span. The solid stretch has him down to a 4.50 ERA with a 1.26 WHIP and 53:14 K:BB through 70 innings in 14 starts overall. The right-hander is scheduled for a road start versus the Rangers this weekend.

Lauer allowed one run on two hits and two walks over six innings in Monday's win over the Cubs. He struck out nine and did not factor in the decision.

Lauer served up a solo homer to Nelson Velazquez in the third inning but was otherwise dominant. It was the first time he allowed fewer than three runs since May 26; he posted a brutal 6.54 ERA over his previous six outings. The 27-year-old southpaw now owns a strong 89:27 K:BB with a 3.84 ERA through 84.1 innings this season. Lauer is lined up to face the Pirates at home this weekend.

Bello confirmed that he'll be called up from Triple-A Worcester to start for the Red Sox in Wednesday's series finale with the Rays, Katie Morrison of The Springfield Republicanreports.

Bello has been dominant this season between stops at Worcester and Double-A, compiling a 2.33 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 114:33 K:BB in 85 innings at the two levels. He's proven that he's ready for a shot at the big leagues, and he'll get his opportunity Wednesday at Fenway Park. Boston currently has four other starting pitchers on the injured list and another in Michael Wacha (dead arm) who is day-to-day, so Bello could get a chance to stick around beyond Wednesday if he fares well in his MLB debut.

Corbin allowed one run on eight hits and one walk while striking out four across seven innings Monday against the Marlins. He didn't factor into the decision.

Corbin surrendered his only run of the day in the top of the third inning on an RBI single to left field, and he would exit without an opportunity to earn the win despite turning in yet another strong performance. Corbin has given up just two runs over his last two starts, fanning 16 and walking three over that stretch (15 innings).

Garrett allowed one run on four hits and one walk while striking out four across 7.1 innings Monday against the Nationals. He didn't factor into the decision.

Garrett pounded the zone in this one, firing 57 of his 83 pitches for strikes. He surrendered his only run in the bottom of the eighth inning on an RBI single to right field, and he was removed immediately after without a chance to snag the victory. The southpaw got knocked around for five runs in his previous outing, but he's allowed three runs or fewer in four of his last five starts. Garrett has accrued a 4.25 ERA and 1.45 WHIP with a 26:7 K:BB over 29.2 innings on the year.

Kremer gave up five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings Monday against the Rangers. He didn't factor into the decision.

Kremer turned in his worst performance of the 2022 season Monday after surrendering just five runs (four earned) over his first five outings of the campaign over 28 frames. Things really fell apart in the fifth inning for Kremer, as he gave up all five runs in the inning on a sacrifice fly, an RBI single and a three-run shot. Despite this, the right-hander still owns a 2.48 ERA and 1.29 WHIP with a 23:9 K:BB across 32.2 innings on the year.

Dunning allowed five runs (three earned) on seven hits and one walk while striking out five over 5.1 innings Monday against the Orioles. He didn't factor into the decision.

Dunning entered the fifth inning with a two-run lead, but two unearned runs crossed the plate after a fielding error by his first baseman, tying the game at five. Despite a shaky outing Monday, he's posted a 3.92 ERA and 1.31 WHIP with a 26:13 K:BB over his last seven starts (39.0 innings).

Faedo left the second game of Monday's doubleheader against the Guardians due to right hip soreness, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Faedo is up with the club as the 27th man for Monday's twin bill, so as Woodbery notes, he'll be sent back to Triple-A Toledo regardless of his health. He'll likely be re-evaluated in the coming days to determine whether he'll require a stint on the minor-league injured list.

Urena is expected to make a spot start Wednesday against the Dodgers, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Urena spent the first month of the 2022 season with the Brewers, posting a 3.52 ERA and 1.57 WHIP with a 5:3 K:BB across 7.2 frames in a relief role before being designated for assignment in early May. If the right-hander is confirmed as Wednesday's starter, it would mark his first big-league action since April 26. Urena has worked five and six innings in his last two minor-league outings, respectively, so he could potentially work more than a few frames if things go well.

Steele allowed just one run on two hits across 6.2 innings but did not factor into the decision in Monday's loss to the Brewers. He walked four and struck out nine.

Steele was cruising with a 1-0 lead into the seventh inning, but after recording two quick outs, he allowed a walk and double that tied the game. After another walk, the lefty got the hook. It was a promising start nonetheless for Steele, who was one away from matching his season high in strikeouts. The walks are still holding him back a bit, as this was the seventh time in 16 starts that he's walked three or more batters. Steele will look to keep pitching well in his next scheduled start Saturday against the Dodgers.
