Quantrill did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 7-1 loss to Atlanta, allowing one run on three hits and no walks with one strikeout over four innings.

Quantrill was surprisingly pulled after just 47 pitches despite retiring the first seven batters he faced and allowing just one run on a solo homer in the fourth inning. While the 30-year-old has given up one earned run or fewer in four of five starts since the All-Star break, he's topped five innings just once in that span. He'll carry a 5.09 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 80:29 K:BB across 106 innings into a road matchup with the Red Sox next weekend.

Burrows did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 14-8 loss to the Reds, allowing four runs on three hits and one walk with six strikeouts over five innings.

Burrows was undone by a four-run third inning, capped by a three-run homer from Miguel Andujar. He was otherwise sharp, tossing three perfect frames and generating 13 whiffs on just 74 pitches. The 25-year-old will take a 4.66 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 69:25 K:BB across 67.2 innings into a road matchup with the Cubs next weekend.

Littell did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 14-8 win over the Pirates, allowing four runs on nine hits and no walks with three strikeouts over 4.2 innings.

Littell opened with three scoreless innings before giving up four runs in the fourth and fifth. The 29-year-old threw 56 of 83 pitches for strikes but allowed 11 hard-hit balls and failed to complete five frames for just the second time this season. He'll take a 3.60 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 100:23 K:BB across 145 innings into a home matchup with the red-hot Brewers next weekend.

Bradish (elbow) is expected to make at least one more rehab start before returning from the 60-day injured list, MLB.com reports.

The 28-year-old right-hander has worked 12.1 innings over four rehab appearances in the minor leagues, producing a shaky 6.57 ERA and 1.54 WHIP. Bradish most recently threw 69 pitches for Triple-A Norfolk on Friday in the fourth start of his rehab assignment, and he could need to complete a couple more starts in the minors before the Orioles consider reinstating him from the injured list. He'll likely be looking to build up to 70-to-80 pitches during his next rehab outing.

Wells (elbow) struck out five and allowed oone hit and one walk over four scoreless innings in a rehab start for Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

Wells has now turned in 8.1 shutout innings through the first three starts of his rehab assignment. The right-hander spotted 41 of his 52 pitches for strikes Sunday, but he'll still need at least a couple more starts to get fully stretched out before the Orioles consider opening up a spot for him in the big-league rotation. Wells has been stuck on the injured list all season while working his way back from his June 17, 2024 UCL revision and internal brace augmentation surgery.

Glasnow allowed two runs on four hits and four walks while striking out eight over 5.2 innings in a no-decision on Sunday versus the Blue Jays.

Glasnow threw 53 of 86 pitches for strikes, but he came up just one out shy of a quality start after running into trouble in the sixth inning. He's had some issues with walks lately -- he's allowed a modest seven runs over 16.2 innings across his last three starts, but he has an 18:11 K:BB in that stretch. Overall, Glasnow is at a 3.08 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 64:27 K:BB through 52.2 innings across 11 starts this season. He's lined up for a home start versus the Padres in his next outing.

The Mets promoted Tong from Double-A Binghamton to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Tong will make the leap to Triple-A after posting a 1.59 ERA with an eye-popping 162 strikeouts over 102 innings in 20 starts with Binghamton this season. The right-hander will be the headliner of a prominent trio of starting pitching prospects at Syracuse that also includes Brandon Sproat and Nolan McLean.

Fried (12-5) took the loss Sunday against the Astros, allowing four runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out three.

It was another shaky outing from Fried, who's stumbled to a 6.00 ERA over his last seven starts (36 innings). The left-hander still sports a 2.94 ERA on the season with a 1.10 WHIP and 135:36 K:BB across 24 starts (144 innings). Fried will look to right the ship in his next outing, currently scheduled for next week in St. Louis.

Alexander (3-1) earned the win Sunday over the Yankees, allowing one hit and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out three.

Alexander has been stellar of late, turning in back-to-back scoreless outings while allowing just four hits over 12 innings in that span. Overall, the 32-year-old right-hander sports a 5.02 ERA with a 1.46 WHIP and 29:18 K:BB across 37.2 innings between the Astros and A's this season. Despite his recent stretch, Alexander could soon be relegated to a bullpen role with Cristian Javier (elbow) slated to rejoin the rotation Monday.

Lauer allowed three runs on six hits and four walks while striking out four over three innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Sunday.

Lauer didn't have much command, throwing just 42 of 71 pitches for strikes. He served up solo home runs to Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman in the first inning and walked in a run in the third before his exit. Prior to Sunday, Lauer had pitched pretty well, posting a 2.57 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 34:4 K:BB over his previous six outings. His struggles in this start can be chalked up to a tough opponent -- he's earned the benefit of the doubt. On the year, Lauer has a 2.82 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 83:22 K:BB through 83 innings over 19 appearances (13 starts). The left-hander is projected to make his next start at home versus the Rangers.
