Scott did not factor into Wednesday's decision against the Tigers, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five across 4.2 innings.

Scott got off to a rocky start by yielding two runs in the first inning, and he allowed at least two baserunners in four of five frames before being pulled with two outs in the fifth. It was the second straight start in which Scott didn't complete the fifth inning, though he's given up two earned runs or fewer in each of his last three outings. He'll take a 3.45 ERA and 1.40 WHIP (across 15.2 innings) into his next start, which is lined up for next week on the road against the Nationals.

Montgomery will work as an opening pitcher for the Pirates during Thursday's game against the Rockies, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Montgomery will be deployed as an opener for the third time this season after delivering shutout innings in both of his first two assignments. The 25-year-old southpaw has thrown 11 consecutive shutout frames, allowing just five hits and four walks while striking out 13 batters during that stretch. Carmen Mlodzinski is expected to follow Montgomery as the Pirates' bulk reliever.

Uribe (2-2) was charged with the loss and a blown save Wednesday against the Padres, allowing three runs on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

Called upon to protect a 1-0 lead in the ninth inning, Uribe served up a three-run home run to Gavin Sheets for his second blown save of the year. The hard-throwing right-hander has been shaky at times in 2026, posting a 4.96 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 17:6 K:BB over 16.1 frames while converting four his six save opportunities. That said, the door is open for Trevor Megill to begin cutting into Uribe's share of save chances going forward.

Gray (4-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Phillies, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out six.

It was a strong performance from Gray, with Philadelphia's lone run coming on a Justin Crawford homer in the third inning. In two starts since returning from the IL, Gray has allowed just one run on six hits over 11 innings. Overall in 2026, his ERA sits at 3.18 with a 1.15 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB across seven starts (34 innings). Gray will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is currently lined up for next week in Kansas City.

Rumfield went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 10-4 win over the Pirates.

Rumfield extended Colorado's lead to 7-4 in the eighth inning with a two-out homer off Brandan Bidois, his sixth of the season. The 25-year-old Rumfield has been swinging the bat well of late, going 12-for-33 (.364) with three homers in his last eight games. Overall, he's slashing .277/.339/.452 with 22 RBI and 17 runs scored across 171 plate appearances in his rookie campaign.

Miller secured the save Wednesday against the Brewers, allowing no runs on one hit and no walks in the ninth inning. He struck out two.

It didn't look like the Padres would have a save opportunity Wednesday, but Gavin Sheets' go-ahead three-run home run in the top of the ninth frame opened the door for Miller. The hard-throwing right-hander did allow the possible tying run to get to the plate, but he struck out Jackson Chourio to seal the win for San Diego and deliver a fifth straight scoreless appearance. Through 19.2 innings this year, Miller has a scintillating 0.92 ERA, 0.66 WHIP and 40:5 K:BB while converting all 13 of his save chances.

King took a no-decision Wednesday against the Brewers, allowing one run on six hits and two walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

The 30-year-old right-hander kept the Milwaukee bats off balance throughout the evening, inducing a whopping 11 groundouts Wednesday. King also worked at least five innings while yielding two runs or fewer for the seventh time already this year, having now pitched at least five frames in all nine of his starts. King sports an excellent 2.63 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 50:22 K:BB over 51.1 frames, but he's set for a daunting task this weekend against the division-rival Dodgers.

Keller (4-2) took the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing six runs on seven hits and a walk across 5.2 innings. He struck out three.

Keller cruised through his first four innings, holding Colorado without a hit. However, it was a different story in the fifth -- Keller would give up five straight hits to open the frame, allowing the Rockies to tie the game 3-3, before allowing a three-run homer to Mickey Moniak to cap a six-run frame. It's the first loss in Keller's last five starts after he held opponents to three runs or fewer in four straight outings coming into Wednesday. His ERA now sits at 3.59 with a 1.08 WHIP and 38:15 K:BB across nine starts (52.2 innings) this year. Keller will look to rebound his next time out, which is tentatively scheduled for next week on the road in St. Louis.

Valdez did not factor into Wednesday's decision against the Mets, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven across 6.2 innings.

Valdez took to the mound Wednesday after serving a five-game suspension for throwing at Trevor Story during the Tigers' 10-3 loss to the Red Sox on May 5. Valdez limited the Mets to just one run through six innings but was tagged for another run in the seventh that tied the game at 2-2. He logged 17 first-pitch strikes and generated 11 whiffs on 106 pitches (72 strikes), which is the first time he's cracked the century mark this season. It was the sixth quality start of the season for Valdez, who has a 4.32 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 42:17 K:BB across 50 innings. He's lined up to face the Guardians at home next week.

Misiorowski left his start Wednesday against the Padres due to quad cramping, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Misiorowski's quad began to bother him while he was warming up for the eighth inning, and manager Pat Murphy opted not to push things after the 24-year-old had already made it through seven frames for the first time this season. Misiorowski has now thrown 18.1 consecutive scoreless innings to begin the month of May and owns a 29:4 K:BB across his last three starts. Assuming his next start doesn't get pushed back, he's lined up to face the Cubs at Wrigley Field early next week.
