    • Logan Allen combines on shutout of White Sox
      Logan Allen scattered six hits over six innings and combined with three relievers on the Guardians’ 7-0 shutout of the White Sox on Sunday.

      Advice: Allen struck out three and walked one. Most likely, he would have given up a few runs if he had faced a major league offense today, but he’ll take it; he had surrendered 13 earned runs over 12 2/3 innings in going 0-2 in his previous three starts. He’s now 4-2 with 5.56 ERA overall. Rotoworld Today, 2:12 pm
       
    • Zack Wheeler tagged by Marlins on Sunday
      Zack Wheeler allowed six runs on six hits in four innings in a no-decision against the Marlins on Sunday.

      Advice: Wheeler allowed seven hard-hit balls in just four innings of work, including a three-run homer to Josh Bell. He posted just a 12 percent whiff rate and 15 percent CSW and was only able to land his sinker in the strike zone 32 percent of the time. It feels like just an off-game for Wheeler, whose velocity was fine. He’ll carry a 2.53 ERA into next week’s start against the Nationals. Rotoworld Today, 2:11 pm
       
    • Tyler Glasnow won’t start Wednesday vs. Giants
      Tyler Glasnow will not start Wednesday’s game against the Giants.

      Advice: Yoshinobu Yamamoto will get the ball Monday with Gavin Stone on Tuesday, but the Dodgers will either go with a bullpen game or make a roster move prior to Wednesday’s game rather than have Glasnow start. The Dodgers have given the right-hander at least five days off betweens starts in 2024, and that will continue for the foreseeable future. Rotoworld Today, 11:41 am
       
    • Pitches well in loss
      Miller (3-3) was stuck with the loss against Oakland on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out nine.

      Advice: All of the damage against Miller came in the top of the third, when the 25-year-old issued a leadoff walk to Lawrence Butler to open the frame, followed by back-to-back singles. The right-hander allowed only two hits outside of that inning and retired 10 of the final 12 batters he faced, but he still got stuck with his third loss of the season due to a lack of run support. Miller has allowed two runs or fewer in six of his eight starts this season and recorded his second-highest strikeout total of the campaign Saturday with nine punchouts.

    • Bryce Miller posts nine strikeouts in loss to A’s
      Bryce Miller recorded nine strikeouts and allowed two runs over six innings in a loss to the Athletics.

      Advice: Miller deserved a better fate in this one as he generated an eye-popping 17 swinging strikes, including six on his splitter alone, and finished with a strong 34 percent CSW. The 25-year-old righty has quietly taken a significant step forward this season, increasing his strikeout rate to 27.9 percent, while allowing two earned runs or fewer in six of his eight outings so far. He’ll bring a stellar 2.66 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 51/15 K/BB ratio across 47 1/3 innings (eight starts) into a tough road tilt on Friday against the Orioles. Rotoworld Today, 4:41 am
       
    • Yields four runs over 5.1 innings
      Cortes (1-4) took the loss Saturday in Tampa Bay, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

      Advice: Cortes had just eight walks all season coming into this outing and half of those came in his first two starts. He issued a season-high three free passes in this one and it's the first time since April 14 that he didn't go at least six frames. Cortes will try to bounce back his next time out in a favorable projected matchup at home against the White Sox. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:41 pm
       
    • Nestor Cortes struggles in loss to Rays Saturday
      Nestor Cortes struggled in Saturday’s loss to the Rays, giving up four runs on five hits over his 5 1/3 innings of work.

      Advice: Cortes punched out five batters on the afternoon, but also issued three free passes. The 29-year-old southpaw struggled to keep the baseball in the yard, giving up a leadoff homer to Yandy Diaz to start the home half of the first and then a three-run bomb to Randy Arozarena in the third — accounting for all of the damage done against him. Cortes generated 11 swings and misses on 89 pitches on the afternoon, posting a CSW of 31 percent. He’ll look to get back on track as he carries a 4.02 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and a 51/11 K/BB ratio (53 2/3 innings) into Friday’s matchup against the White Sox. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:27 pm
       
    • Pitches well in no-decision
      Irvin did not factor into the decision Saturday in Boston, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks over seven innings. He struck out six.

      Advice: It marks the first time in 32 career starts at the big-league level that Irvin completed seven innings. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to pick up a win for his efforts, as the right-hander departed with the game tied and then watched reliever Robert Garcia cough up a couple runs in the eighth inning. Irvin has permitted two or fewer runs in five of his last six outings, lowering his ERA to a season-low 3.55. His next projected start is a difficult one on the road versus the Phillies.

    • Jake Irvin holds Red Sox to two over seven innings
      Jake Irvin allowed two runs while working seven innings in a no-decision Saturday against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Irvin scattered four hits without issuing a walk, and he was able to strike out six. It’s the first time this season that the 27-year-old has been able to get through seven innings — he had worked six in four previous outings — and for the most part, it was another solid outing for a pitcher that doesn’t get a lot of fantasy acclaim. He’ll take a solid 3.55 ERA into an outing Friday against the Phillies. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:28 pm
