Bounces back in no-decision Cortes allowed one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out four across seven innings Thursday against the Reds. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Cortes didn't have an impressive strikeout total, but he effectively limited hard contact and did not allow an extra-base hit. Entering Thursday's start, Cortes had allowed four earned runs in three of his last six starts and maintained a 5.34 ERA and 1.36 WHIP in that span, so the bounceback effort was a welcome sight. Despite his recent struggles, Cortes still features a 2.63 ERA and 99:22 K:BB across 95.2 frames on the season.

Early exit in no-decision Cortes didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 12-5 win over the Red Sox, giving up four runs on eight hits and two walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

Impact The southpaw got staked to a 4-0 lead before he even stepped on the mound, but Cortes had his own struggles and couldn't stick around long enough to capitalize on the run support. His early-season magic appears to have worn off, as the 27-year-old has failed to last longer than five innings in four of his last last six starts, stumbling to a 5.34 ERA over that stretch thanks to a 2.8 HR/9 despite an otherwise solid 1.36 WHIP and 27:7 K:BB through 28.2 innings.

Limits damage to solo shot Cortes (7-3) allowed a run on three hits and no walks while striking out six over six innings to earn the win in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader versus the Guardians.

Impact Cortes gave up a solo home run to Amed Rosario in the first inning and just a pair of singles in his last five frames.
