  • Allows seven runs in loss
    Gausman (6-7) suffered the loss Sunday, allowing seven runs on seven hits, five walks and a hit batsman against the Yankees. He struck out seven.

    Advice: Gausman needed 107 pitches to record 13 outs, allowing season highs in runs (seven) and walks (five) while being tagged for three extra-base hits including a first-inning Aaron Judge two-run blast. Gausman did strike out seven batters to represent the fourth time this season he's reached at least seven in an outing, but that's nothing more than a minor silver lining around Sunday's ugly performance. It's the fifth time this season Gausman has allowed at least five runs in a start, and he closes the month of June with a 5.64 ERA over 36.2 innings spanning six starts. His next start is tentatively slated for when the Blue Jays head west to take on the Mariners in Seattle next weekend. Rotowire.com Today, 2:57 pm
     
  • Casey Mize leaves game in sixth with leg problem
    Casey Mize left Sunday’s game in the sixth inning with an apparent left leg injury.

    Advice: Mize grabbed at his hamstring a little bit after trying to chase down a foul popup. He is in line for his second win after leaving with a 7-0 lead and one out in the sixth against the Angels. Alex Faedo replaced him. Rotoworld Today, 2:53 pm

  • Greene allows one run in loss to Cardinals Sunday
    Hunter Greene allowed one run in 4 1/3 innings and took the loss against the Cardinals on Sunday.



    Advice: Greene gave up four hits, walked two and struck out six. It was certainly better than his last start where he allowed six runs, but the Cardinals worked up his pitch count and he was unable to complete even five innings. Greene has a 3.70 ERA and 4.29 xFIP on the season. The 24-year-old right-hander is set to face the Tigers at home next weekend.

    Advice: Lynn gave up two hits, walked one and struck out six. He’s won consecutive starts for the first time this year. Lynn was excellent in shutting down the Reds and now has a 3.59 ERA on the season. The 37-year-old right-hander is set to face the Nationals on the road next weekend.

  • Hendricks gives up seven runs in loss to Brewers
    Kyle Hendricks allowed seven runs in 3 2/3 innings and took the loss against the Brewers on Sunday.



    Advice: Hendricks gave up seven hits, walked one and struck out three. Hendricks cruised through the first three innings without allowing a run and then couldn’t make it out of the fourth inning. He gave up a two-run home run to Christian Yelich and an RBI single to Sal Frelick before the Brice Turang grand slam with two outs chased him from the game. Hendricks’ ERA is 7.48 and he’s won only one of his 10 starts for the Cubs. He’s too hittable at this point of his career to be usable in fantasy. The 34-year-old right-hander is set to face the Angels at home next weekend.

  • Peralta strikes out eight, picks up sixth win
    Freddy Peralta allowed one run in seven innings and got the win in the Brewer’s 7-1 victory over the Cubs on Sunday.

    Advice: Peralta gave up two hits, walked two and struck out eight. It was his sixth win of the season and third in June. Peralta has completed at least six innings and struck out eight batters in two of his last three starts. That’s a real positive considering that before that stretch he had completed six innings in just one of his previous six starts. Peralta has a 3.83 ERA on the season. The 28-year-old right-hander has a tough matchup against the Dodgers on the road next weekend.

  • Kevin Gausman loses, struggles again
    Kevin Gausman allowed seven runs in just 4 1/3 innings on Sunday against the Yankees. He walked five and struck out seven in a loss.

    Advice: Gausman just hasn’t been right all year. Aaron Judge crushed a first-inning fastball that wasn’t up-and-in enough and the Yankees kept traffic on the bases seemingly every inning. His tried and true game plan of fastballs and splitters does not have the same potency it used to as his fastball velocity has dipped and hitters don’t chase or whiff on that splitter like they once did.

  • Taj Bradley strikes out 11 in win
    Taj Bradley blanked the Nationals over 5 2/3 innings in a 5-0 win on Sunday. He struck out 11 and walked two.

    Advice: Bradley was dominant in this one. The 11 punch outs matched his season-high and the Nationals were helpless against his terrific fastball. Living in the top of the zone, it forced 10 swings and misses and brilliantly set up his diving splitter. Bradley looks every bit the top-end starter he was billed as. Rotoworld Today, 1:08 pm
     
  • Patrick Corbin gets through six innings in loss
    Patrick Corbin allowed four earned runs across six frames on Sunday against the Rays. He struck out five and walked one in a losing effort.

    Advice: The Rays smacked Corbin around in this one and he was fortunate to give up just four runs. The Rays had 12 hard-hit balls, nine of which were hit harder than 100 MPH. He’s earned every bit of his 5.49 ERA this season. Rotoworld Today, 1:04 pm
