Schultz (2-3) took the loss Monday, allowing three runs on five hits, no walks and two hit batsmen over 5.1 innings against Seattle. He struck out six.

Schultz avoided a major snowball effect after allowing a leadoff homer to Julio Rodriguez in the first inning, though the big lefty was unable to complete six innings and was ultimately saddled with his third loss. One positive from the outing was that Schultz didn't issue a walk for the first time in his big-league career, though he did plunk a pair of hitters. The 22-year-old has struggled in May, posting a 6.05 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 19.1 innings (four starts). Schultz will carry a 4.93 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 32:21 K:BB across 34.2 innings (seven starts) into his next outing, which is tentatively scheduled for Sunday against San Francisco.

Woo (4-2) earned the win Monday, allowing three hits and two walks over six scoreless innings against the White Sox. He struck out eight.

Woo was stellar, keeping the White Sox offense off the board en route to his third scoreless start of the season. After a rocky two-start stretch between April 25 and May 1 in which he surrendered 13 earned runs across nine innings, the right-hander has allowed just two runs over 18 innings with a 26:6 K:BB across his past three outings. Woo will carry a 3.51 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 55:12 K:BB through 59 innings (10 starts) into his next outing, which is tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Royals.

Neto went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run Monday in a 2-1 victory versus the Athletics.

Like every other Angels batter, Neto entered the ninth inning without a hit against A's starter J.T. Ginn. Adam Frazier opened the frame with a single to break up the no-no, and Neto then ended the contest in dramatic fashion with a two-run blast to center field. The long ball was Neto's eighth of the campaign, and he's added seven stolen bases, 31 runs and 22 RBI while slashing .225/.336/.412 through 48 contests.

Urena allowed four hits and walked two batters while striking out four over six scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Athletics on Monday.

Urena was excellent in the outing, holding the A's scoreless while tossing 92 pitches over six innings. However, he was outshone for most of the game by Athletics starter J.T. Ginn, who carried a no-hitter into the ninth before ultimately serving up a walk-off homer. Urena recorded just four strikeouts, but he induced 15 whiffs. The right-hander has put his name on the fantasy radar with a string of strong appearances -- over his past four starts, Urena has posted a 1.64 ERA despite a modest 17:9 K:BB across 22 innings.

Barger (elbow) was in Toronto for a follow-up exam Monday, seeking the green light to start hitting and throwing Tuesday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Barger was a playoff standout for the Blue Jays last fall, slashing .367/.441/.583 in the postseason, but his 2026 campaign has been plagued by injuries so far. He first hurt his ankles in an awkward landing at first base in early April and returned for just one start before landing right back on the IL with right elbow inflammation. Barger seems eager to begin ramping up his activities, however, and the expectation is still that he will be a big part of the Toronto lineup when healthy.

Ginn (2-2) was the pitcher of record in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Angels after allowing two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out 10 batters over eight-plus innings.

Ginn dominated through eight frames, holding the Angels without a hit while establishing a new career-high strikeout total. The game was tied 0-0 heading into the ninth, but the Athletics scored a run in the top of the inning to give Ginn a shot at history. In an absolutely brutal ending to a fantastic outing, Ginn gave up a leadoff single to Adam Frazier to lose the no-hitter before Zach Neto tagged him for a two-run, walk-off home run. Ginn's start will be most remembered for the way it ended, but fantasy managers who roster him should take solace in the strength of his overall performance. He not only picked up third straight quality start but also demonstrated improved swing-and-miss stuff with 14 whiffs.

Falter will work as the Royals' opening pitcher Tuesday in a bullpen game against the Red Sox, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Falter is in line for his second appearance since being activated from the 15-day injured list Saturday. The southpaw handled two innings in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Cardinals, and even though he'll be pitching on just two days' rest Tuesday, a multi-inning appearance isn't out of the question.

Foscue went 3-for-3 with a home run, two doubles, a walk and three total RBI in a loss to the Rockies on Monday.

Foscue did his best to keep the Rangers in the contest, registering an RBI double in each of the second and sixth innings around a solo homer in the fifth. The 27-year-old came into the game having gone just 4-for-22 on the campaign, but his 3-for-3 performance lifted his season batting average from .182 to .280. Foscue has started four straight games for Texas and could continue to see consistent playing time moving forward while Josh Smith (lower body/wrist/illness) and Corey Seager (back) remain on the IL.

Jeffers left Monday's game against Houston with a left wrist sprain, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

Jeffers was removed from the matchup in the middle of his at-bat during the eighth inning after taking one swing, which resulted in a broken bat. Gleeman adds that the backstop will be sent for further testing Tuesday to determine the extent of the injury. Victor Caratini would be in line for more work behind the dish if Jeffers requires a trip to the injured list.

Wilson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 16-6 loss to the Rays.

Wilson, who remains mostly stuck in short-side platoon role, belted his first homer of the season Monday. The utility player doesn't have a clear pathway to action at any position, especially now that Jackson Holliday (hand) is back with the Orioles. Wilson has at least been effective when called upon, batting .290 with two extra-base hits, three RBI, six walks and two stolen bases over 31 at-bats.
