    • Sharp in third win
      Lynn (3-3) allowed a run on four hits over 6.2 innings Monday, striking out five and earning a win over Atlanta.

      Advice: Lynn turned in four shutout frames before coughing up a solo homer to Austin Riley in the fifth inning, but he was otherwise nearly untouchable. It was a much-needed rebound for Lynn, as he registered an unsightly 7.90 ERA over 13.2 innings in his previous three outings. He earned his first win since May 21 with his longest outing since April 16, lowering his season ERA to 3.86 with a 78:30 K:BB through 16 starts. Lynn's next outing lines up for this coming weekend at home against the Reds. Rotowire.com Today, 7:14 am
       
    • One bad inning Monday
      Schwellenbach (1-3) took the loss Monday against the Cardinals, giving up four runs on eight hits over five innings. He struck out six without walking a batter.

      Advice: The rookie didn't pitch badly overall, but he lost focus in the third inning and allowed all four of the runs against him thanks to five hits and a wild pitch. It was the first time in five big-league starts that Schwellenbach hasn't issued a free pass, and he's gone three straight outings without serving up a homer, providing hope that he can provide some stability to the back of Atlanta's rotation. The 24-year-old right-hander lines up to make his next start at home this weekend against the Pirates. Rotowire.com Today, 6:28 am
       
    • Schwellenbach strikes out six in loss Monday
      Spencer Schwellenbach allowed for runs in five innings and took the loss against the Cardinals on Monday.



      Advice: Schwellenbach gave up eight hits, walked none and struck out six. It wasn’t a terrible start considering it was the fifth start of his major league career. All four runs against Schwellenbach came in the fourth inning and the only extra-base hit he allowed was an RBI double to Alec Burleson. Schwellenbach has allowed only two home runs in his five starts. His ERA is 5.40, but his xFIP is much lower at 3.69, which shows that the positives outweigh the negatives so far. The 24-year-old rookie right-hander is set to face the Pirates at home this weekend.

    • Lynn gets third win against Braves Monday
      Lance Lynn allowed one run in 6 2/3 innings and got the win in the Cardinals’ 4-3 victory over the Braves on Monday.



      Advice: Lynn gave up four hits, walked none and struck out five. The win was Lynn’s third of the year. It was his first quality start since May 27th. Lynn lowered his ERA to 3.86 and he has a 4.02 xFIP on the season. His 5.73 ERA from last year appears to be an outlier. Lynn is close to getting a strikeout per inning, but he’s only completed six innings in four of his 16 starts this year. The 37-year-old right-hander is set to face the Reds at home this weekend.

    • Recalled, starting Tuesday
      The Padres recalled Mazur from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

      Advice: Mazur looked to be on his way out of the San Diego rotation after being optioned to Triple-A after he was lit up for three runs over 4.2 innings in a no-decision this past Friday against the Brewers, but he'll get at least one more start while Yu Darvish's (groin) return from the 15-day injured list will be delayed due to right elbow inflammation, per Dennis Lin of The Athletic. Over his four starts with San Diego this season, the rookie has gone 0-2 with a 7.27 ERA, 1.96 WHIP and 11:16 K:BB in 17.1 innings, numbers that make him an untrustworthy fantasy option.

    • Padres recall Adam Mazur to start Tuesday
      Padres recalled RHP Adam Mazur from Triple-A El Paso.

      Advice: The Padres are taking advantage of the Fernando Tatis Jr. injury to recall Mazur just three days after demoting him. He’ll start Tuesday against the Nationals, since Yu Darvish isn’t yet ready to go. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:49 pm

    • Tagged for six runs
      Miller dropped to 6-6 on the season in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Marlins, allowing six earned runs on six hits and one walk over four innings while striking out three.

      Advice: Miami jumped on Miller early with a four-run first inning. He gave up another run in the second before Jesus Sanchez scored the Marlins' final run with a solo shot in the third. Miller has allowed 15 earned runs over five starts this month, resulting in a 4.88 ERA in that span. Two of those outings have accounted for 13 of the runs. Miller has produced a 4.89 ERA since the start of May, driving his season mark up to 3.90. He's currently in line for a home matchup with the Twins next weekend. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:56 pm
       
    • Yields five runs in loss
      King (5-5) allowed five runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out eight over six innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Brewers.

      Advice: King had given up a total of five runs across his previous five outings, but he had just one win in that span despite a 34:9 K:BB over 26.2 innings. He wasn't as good Sunday, as the Brewers pieced together a two-out rally in the second inning that accounted for four of the five runs on his line. King is now at a 3.75 ERA with a 1.29 WHIP and 109:38 K:BB through 93.2 innings over 17 appearances (16 starts) this season. The right-hander is projected to make his next start at Boston.

    • Resumes throwing off flat ground
      Harrison is progressing in his recovery from a right ankle sprain and had been playing catch off flat ground from up to 90 feet as of Saturday, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: While the fact that Harrison hasn't been shut down from activity one week after landing on the injured list is an encouraging sign, the Giants still aren't counting on the 22-year-old lefty to rejoin the rotation until July. With all of Harrison, Blake Snell (groin) and Keaton Winn (elbow) going on the IL within the past three weeks, the Giants are left with Logan Webb and Jordan Hicks as the only healthy members of their season-opening rotation.
