The 34-year-old southpaw punched out seven batters on the night while issuing three walks. Ray allowed an RBI double to Bo Bichette in the opening inning and served up a solo homer to Mark Vientos to open the second but kept the Mets off the board from there on out. He piled up 19 whiffs on 96 pitches on the night — eight of those on his slider — while posting a CSW of 33 percent. He’ll look to extend his winning streak when he carries a 3.38 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and an 11/3 K/BB ratio into Tuesday’s battle against the Phillies.

Olson got the scoring started in the top half of the first inning, crushing a 3-2 fastball from Ryne Nelson for a 430-foot (108.0 mph EV) solo shot — his first home run of the season. He then smacked an RBI double in the fifth inning and scored on Austin Riley’s run-scoring double. He also added an RBI double off of James McCann in the ninth. The 32-year-old slugger is off to a solid start to the 2026 campaign, slashing .321/.367/.571 with a homer and five RBI.

Lodolo had been expected to throw around 60-65 pitches in the rehab start, but he was pulled after throwing only 40 pitches over 2 2/3 innings. There had been optimism that the 28-year-old hurler would be ready to rejoin the Reds’ rotation next week, but that’s now out of the question. The plan for him going forward will likely depend on how he’s feeling in the coming days. For now, fantasy managers will have to exercise patience.

Olney adds that the two sides are still finalizing the contract, which figures to get across the finish line before Griffin’s major-league debut on Friday. The sport’s best prospect appears to be settling in for a long stay by the Allegheny. The easy comparison is to the eight-year, $130 million deal that Roman Anthony signed last August. Griffin profiles as a top-of-the-order table-setter for the Pirates right away and will pair with ace Paul Skenes as the franchise’s cornerstones for years to come. The 19-year-old prodigy batted .333/.415/.527 with 21 homers and 65 steals in 122 games last year in his professional debut. He’ll be the youngest position player to reach the big leagues since Juan Soto back in 2018. He needs to be rostered in any fantasy leagues where he is somehow still available.

It was a single-car accident blamed on wet pavement. He was taken to the hospital afterwards and subsequently released. Fortunately, no serious damage was done, but we’ll have a better idea Thursday if there’s something that might impact Winn’s baseball availability for the near future. If he needs an IL stint, the Cardinals could give his at-bats to Ramón Urías and José Fermín and call up Cesar Prieto to fill the open roster spot.

Erceg was forced into action to clean up a ninth-inning mess after Bailey Falter allowed three runs and brought the tying run to the on-deck circle with one out, despite Kansas City entering the frame with a seven-run cushion. He retired Austin Martin before getting James Outman to ground out to end the contest. The hard-throwing 30-year-old will have some runway to establish himself as the Royals’ primary closing option with Carlos Estévez on the injured list with a foot contusion.

Williams authored a masterful performance in an extremely challenging road matchup against a Dodgers lineup that resembles a fully operational Death Star, scattering two hits and three walks over seven frames while recording double-digit strikeouts for the fifth time in his career. The 26-year-old former top pitching prospect, who posted a sparkling 2.18 ERA across 12 second half starts to close out last year, has looked like an upper-echelon fantasy starter so far, allowing three runs with a 16/9 K/BB ratio across 11 innings of work. He’ll face the Royals on Tuesday in a home matchup.

Schlittler is on another level right now. He’s still yet to allow a run or even walk a batter this season to go along with 15 punchouts across nearly 12 innings of work. In this start, he threw his three fastball variations a combined 88% of the time and the Mariners were completely helpless against them. His four-seamer led the way with 11 swings-and-misses and both his cutter and sinker played off it perfectly. Combined, those pitches had nearly an 80% strike rate as he had no fear challenging the Mariners’ hitters in the zone because they couldn’t touch him. At this rate, Schlittler looks like he could be on his way to ace-status. He’s scheduled to face the Athletics at home in his next start.

Roberts added that Justin Wrobleski will temporarily move into the rotation to build in some extra rest for everyone else. Ohtani simultaneously holds the longest active scoreless pitching streak (22 2/3 innings) and the longest active on-base streak (36 games) in baseball right now. The 31-year-old two-way superstar tossed six shutout innings on Tuesday against the Guardians while also reaching base safely three times. He’ll get a couple extra days of rest before taking the ball to close out a three-game rematch of last year’s thrilling Fall Classic.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt told reporters that DeLauter was scheduled for a day off regardless before suffering a left foot contusion during Tuesday’s game at Dodger Stadium. The encouraging news for Cleveland, and fantasy managers, is that initial X-rays were negative for any fractures. The 24-year-old rookie sensation will be re-evaluated ahead of Friday’s series opener against the Cubs to determine whether additional time off is needed. He should be considered day-to-day for now. It’ll be Angel Martínez taking over in right field on Wednesday night in his absence.
