Tarik Skubal - Fires four scoreless framesSkubal pitched four scoreless innings in a no-decision Saturday against Kansas City, giving up just one hit to go with one strikeout.

ImpactThe 24-year-old had his workload limited once again, but he was nearly perfect in his four innings of work, limiting the Royals to just an Edward Olivares single while registering 32 of his 45 pitches for strikes. Skubal has gone 8-12 in 30 appearances (28 starts) this season, posting a 1.24 WHIP and 163:46 K:BB over 146 innings.

Nicky Lopez - Nabs two hits, stolen baseLopez went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-1 loss to Detroit.

ImpactLopez singled and swiped second in the sixth inning -- his 21st stolen base of the year -- then added a double in the eighth. It was the fourth multi-hit game in the last seven contests for Lopez, who has emerged as a viable fantasy asset in 2021, hitting .303 with a .367 on-base percentage to go with his perfect 21-for-21 performance on the basepaths.

Jon Heasley - Works into sixth inningHeasley pitched 5.1 scoreless innings Saturday against Detroit, giving up three hits and two walks with three strikeouts. He did not factor in the decision.

ImpactIt was a much-improved effort from Heasley, who surrendered four runs in four innings during his MLB debut eight days earlier. Heasley limited the Tigers to a double and a pair of singles Saturday and pitched into the sixth inning before a one-out walk to Daz Cameron ended his day. Heasley has just five strikeouts through his first 9.1 innings, but he has almost certainly earned one more start this season, tentatively scheduled for next Friday against Minnesota.
