Fedde did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Royals, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out two over five innings.

Fedde was tagged early, surrendering solo homers to Bobby Witt and Salvador Perez in the first inning, but he settled down nicely afterward and kept Kansas City scoreless over the next four frames. The veteran right-hander continues to struggle with the long ball, now allowing seven home runs across his last three starts. Despite that issue, Fedde still owns a respectable 3.77 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and a 26:14 K:BB across 43 innings. He'll face a difficult test in his next outing against the Cubs as he searches for his first win of the season.

Cleavinger earned the save in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Blue Jays, allowing one run on one walk in the 10th inning.

With Bryan Baker seemingly unavailable after pitching back-to-back days, Cleavinger got the nod in the bottom of the 10th after the Rays plated a pair in the top half of the inning. It was Cleavinger's first save of the season to go along with a 1-1 record and six holds. He owns a 4.05 ERA and 9:5 K:BB across 6.2 innings.

McClanahan didn't factor into decision Tuesday against the Blue Jays, allowing one hit and one walk with seven strikeouts across five shutout innings.

McClanahan exited with a 4-0 lead, but the Tampa Bay bullpen imploded in the seventh inning, allowing five runs on four hits, one walk and an error. McClanahan hasn't allowed a run in any of his last four starts and has blanked the Blue Jays across 10.2 innings in back-to-back outings. The left-hander's off-speed and breaking stuff has been well above-average this season, and he now owns a 2.27 ERA and 41:15 K:BB across 39.2 innings. McClanahan is lined up to face the Orioles at home next week.

Kolek did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the White Sox, allowing five runs on five hits and three walks while striking out six over 4.2 innings.

Kolek managed to keep Chicago off the board through four innings despite working through traffic early, including escaping a bases-loaded jam in the third. However, everything unraveled in the fifth inning, as Drew Romo launched a solo homer before Chase Meidroth followed later with a three-run shot that forced Kolek's exit. The outing marked his second start since returning from the injured list, and while the strikeout total was encouraging, the late collapse overshadowed the positives. He'll look to bounce back in his next scheduled outing against St. Louis.

Bello didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts across 6.1 innings.

Bello has worked behind opener Jovani Moran each of his last two outings, and Bello has responded well with just two runs allowed on eight hits and two walks with 12 strikeouts across 13.1 innings. The right-hander has lowered his ERA to 6.46 with a 29:17 K:BB across 39 innings this season. Look for Boston to potentially again use Bello behind Moran for his next outing since it's yielded positive results the past two times against Detroit and Philadelphia.

Canzone went 1-for-4 with a grand slam and a sacrifice fly in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Astros.

Canzone set a career high with five RBI in this contest. He hit the grand slam in the fourth inning to blow the game open for the Mariners, and he added the sac fly as icing in the ninth. This may be the jump start he needs to get back on track -- even with this effort, he's just 3-for-19 with a 3:6 BB:K over 10 games in May. For the season, he's hitting .256 with a .797 OPS, four homers, 18 RBI, 12 runs scored, seven doubles and a stolen base over 97 plate appearances. Canzone is handling a platoon role as the Mariners' preferred designated hitter against right-handed pitchers, though he could fill in as a corner outfielder if injuries pile up.

Arozarena went 4-for-4 with a two-run home run, two doubles, a hit-by-pitch, three total RBI, one stolen base and four runs scored in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Astros.

Arozarena filled up the box score from the No. 5 spot in the order. He hit the homer in the second inning before continuing an impressive performance throughout the game. Arozarena has hit safely in his last six contests, going 12-for-23 (.522) in that span, though all of his knocks over the previous five games were singles. For the season, the outfielder is batting .303 with an .854 OPS, four homers, 16 RBI, 31 runs scored, 11 doubles and 10 stolen bases across 43 games.

Woo (3-2) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out nine over six innings to earn the win Tuesday against the Astros.

Woo threw 74 of 104 pitches for strikes, earning a second straight win. He matched his season high in strikeouts, a mark he's reached in three of his nine starts so far. He's also recorded six quality starts, though a couple of bad outings have taken a toll on his overall numbers. Woo has pitched to a 3.91 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 47:10 K:BB through 53 innings over nine starts this season. The Mariners' rotation is getting a boost Wednesday with the return of Bryce Miller (oblique), which will likely push Woo's next start to next week in a home matchup against the White Sox.

Dingler went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 10-2 loss to the Mets.

Dingler opened the scoring in the second inning by taking Freddy Peralta deep for his seventh homer of the season. The catcher had dropped off significantly after a strong start to the year, entering Tuesday batting just .161 with a 4:14 BB:K over his previous 16 games. Even with the recent struggles, Dingler still owns a decent .234/.305/.461 slash line with eight doubles, 27 RBI and 14 runs scored across 141 plate appearances.

Imai (1-1) allowed six runs on five hits, three walks and two hit batsmen while striking out three over four innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Mariners.

Imai missed a month due to right arm fatigue. He gave up two big knocks Tuesday, a two-run home run to Randy Arozarena in the second inning and a grand slam to Dominic Canzone in the fourth. Those were the first two homers Imai has allowed in his major-league career. He threw 46 of 80 pitches for strikes in his return from the injured list, so his workload may need to be monitored going forward. With a 9.24 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and 16:14 K:BB over 12.2 innings across four starts, Imai hasn't done much yet to impress in fantasy. He is tentatively projected to make his next start on the road in Minnesota.
