  • Griffin Canning loses fourth straight start
    Griffin Canning lost Tuesday after allowing six runs — five earned — in five innings against the Brewers.

    Advice: Canning’s stuff is definitely better now than it was at the beginning of the year, but the results remain mediocre. He’s lost all four of his starts this month, though his ERA is slightly lower now (5.02) than it was at the end of May (5.08). Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:20 pm
     
  • Hogan Harris gets first victory of 2024
    Hogan Harris yielded three runs — one earned — in five innings Tuesday in a victory over the Royals.

    Advice: It’s the first win and decision in four starts and two relief appearances for Harris this season. The 27-year-old had a 7.14 ERA in six starts and eight relief appearances for Oakland last year, but he’s at 2.37 right now, having struck out 26 and walked 11 in 30 1/3 innings. He still seems like someone to avoid for fantasy purposes. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:55 pm
     
  • Mason Miller perfect in ninth for 13th save
    Mason Miller recorded his 13th save with a scoreless ninth against the Royals on Tuesday.

    Advice: Miller had it easy tonight, getting one strikeout and a pair of routine flies. He’s had some hiccups of late, but he remains about as good of a bet as any reliever from an ERA and strikeout perspective. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:55 pm
     
  • Alec Marsh tagged for seven runs by A’s
    Alec Marsh was lit up for seven runs in three-plus innings by the A’s on Tuesday.

    Advice: This after he completely shut down the Yankees for seven innings last time out. Marsh got 14 missed swings in the 76-pitch outing, but pretty much everyone who reached base against him came around to score. He’ll take a 5-4 record and a 4.37 ERA into his next start against the Rangers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:54 pm
     
  • Fans eight in no-decision
    Steele did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over 6.2 innings. He struck out eight.

    Advice: The Chicago southpaw posted his third straight quality start as he generated 14 whiffs en route to eight punchouts, tying the season high he'd set May 27 against Milwaukee. The Giants managed to collect both runs against Steele on a fifth-inning double yielded to Curt Casali. Although Steele is still searching for his first win, he's been a dependable arm with a 3.16 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 56:15 K:BB over 57 innings this season. He's scheduled make his next start against the Giants again, but in San Francisco. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:18 pm
     
  • Quality start in no-decision
    Webb did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Cubs, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk over seven innings. He struck out five.

    Advice: Webb collected his third consecutive quality start and 12th of the season with a solid 101-pitch outing. The San Francisco ace's only blemish of the game came in the second inning when he allowed a 401-foot two-run home run to Dansby Swanson. With this outing, Webb pushed his ERA down to 2.99 over 99.1 innings this year. He'll look to eclipse the 100-inning threshold for the fourth consecutive season in his next start, currently slated come against the Cardinals on the road. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:09 pm
     
  • Bassitt allows two earned runs in loss to Red Sox
    Chris Bassitt allowed two earned runs over six innings in Tuesday’s loss to the Red Sox.

    Advice: Despite allowing nine baserunners on the evening, Bassitt managed to hold the Red Sox to just two earned runs, and pitched out of a jam with runners on to close out the sixth inning. The veteran righty continues to be a solid option in the middle of the Jays’ rotation, and has allowed just four earned runs over 18 innings in the month of June. Bassitt will get another crack at the Red Sox in his next start on Monday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:33 pm
     
  • Houck allows two earned runs as Red Sox top Jays
    Tanner Houck allowed two earned runs over 5 2/3 innings in Tuesday’s win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Houck gave up two runs in the second after Ernie Clement laced a double to right to give the Blue Jays their first runs of the night. He would be pulled in the sixth after an RBI single by Isiah Kiner-Falefa, but things could’ve been much worse for Houck, who allowed nine baserunners on the evening while throwing 103 pitches. He’s allowed three earned runs or less in 14 of his 15 starts on the season and is scheduled to face the Jays in his next start, which comes on Monday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:32 pm
     
  • Schwellenbach strikes out 7 in win over Tigers
    Spencer Schwellenbach allowed one earned run over six innings while picking up the win on Tuesday against the Tigers.

    Advice: Schwellenbach turned in his best performance of the season on Tuesday to earn his first career win. In addition to striking out a season-high seven batters, Schwellenbach also allowed just one run on three hits — both season-bests. The rookie has now allowed three earned runs in his last 12 innings pitched and has a 10:4 strikeout-to-walk ratio over that span. Schwellenbach is scheduled to make his next start on Monday against the Cardinals. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:55 pm
