On track to start Wednesday Lopez (wrist) is listed as the Marlins' scheduled starting pitcher for Wednesday's game in Philadelphia.
Impact Lopez's 12th start of the season Friday against the Astros was his second-shortest outing of the season, as he was pulled midway through the fifth inning after getting struck by a comebacker on the right wrist. He was diagnosed with a contusion following his departure, but his inclusion on the Marlins' upcoming pitching schedule suggests he was able to complete his between-starts bullpen session Sunday without incident. Lopez will carry a 4-2 record, 2.30 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 72:19 K:BB over 70.1 innings into Wednesday's game.

Dealing with right wrist contusion Lopez has been diagnosed with a right wrist contusion after exiting Friday's game against the Astros, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Lopez was hit by a comebacker in the bottom of the fifth inning Friday and immediately removed from the game, but he underwent X-rays that came back negative. The right-hander also threw a warmup pitch in an attempt to stay in the game Friday, so he should be considered day-to-day for now. If Lopez is cleared to make his next start, he tentatively lines up to take the mound on the road in Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Removed with apparent wrist injury Lopez was removed from Friday's game against the Astros in the bottom of the fifth inning after being hit by a comebacker on his right wrist, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Lopez sustained his injury with one out in the bottom of the fifth inning and threw a warmup pitch in an attempt to stay in the game, but he was ultimately removed by a trainer. He was productive prior to his departure, allowing just one run on six hits and two walks while striking out five in 4.1 innings. The exact nature and severity of Lopez's injury aren't yet known.

Settles for no-decision Saturday Lopez allowed four runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six across seven innings against San Francisco on Saturday. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact Lopez allowed a total of four runs between the third and fourth innings, but he stuck around for three more frames and kept the Giants off the scoreboard while Miami mounted a comeback. The right-hander finished with his fourth no-decision over his past five starts, tossing a season-high 110 pitches. Lopez will carry a 2.18 ERA into his next outing, which is lined up to come at home against Washington next week.

Quality start in Coors Lopez didn't factor into the decision in Monday's 7-1 loss to the Rockies, allowing three hits and four walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out five.
Impact The right-hander pitched around trouble and tossed only 58 of 99 pitches for strikes, but Lopez still exited the game with the Marlins ahead 1-0, only to see Cole Sulser and the bullpen implode. Lopez delivered his fifth quality start of the season, and he'll take a stellar 1.83 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 61:15 K:BB through 59 innings into his next outing.

Serves up three homers in loss Lopez (4-2) was charged with the loss Tuesday against the Rays after giving up four runs on nine hits with eight strikeouts and zero walks over seven innings.
Impact Lopez allowed three home runs, including Kevin Kiermaier's inside-the-park homer, which accounted for all four of Tampa Bay's runs on the day. The big blow came in the sixth inning when Ji-Man Choi crushed a two-run shot to right field. The right-hander generated an impressive 21 swinging strikes on 86 pitches, but the long balls soured that effort as he allowed more than three earned runs for the first time in 2022. Lopez still has strong numbers for the season with a 2.04 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 56:11 K:BB across 53 innings.

Loses arbitration case Lopez lost his arbitration case against the Marlins on Saturday and will make $2.45 million this season, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Impact Lopez had hoped to receive $3 million. Either figure represents a huge bargain for the Marlins, as Lopez owns a 1.57 ERA through eight starts this season, striking out 27.0 percent of opposing batters while walking just 6.2 percent.

Impact The right-hander needed 82 pitches (44 strikes) to record only nine outs in his shortest outing of the year, and the three walks and two strikeouts were both season-worst performances in those categories. Despite the stumble, Lopez still boasts a stellar 1.57 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 48:11 K:BB through 46 innings.

Matches Burnes in pitchers' duel Lopez did not factor into the decision Friday against the Brewers despite striking out 11 batters while allowing one run on three hits and no walks across seven innings.
Impact Lopez gave up a leadoff homer to Kolten Wong to start the game before settling in for seven dominant frames. Unfortunately for him and the Marlins, Corbin Burnes was just as good for the visitors, allowing just one run in seven innings as well. While it wasn't good enough for a win, it was still another dominant showing from Lopez, who now owns a 1.05 ERA through seven starts. He'll look to keep the remarkable start going Wednesday against Washington.

Tosses eight scoreless frames Lopez (4-1) earned the win during Saturday's 8-0 shutout of San Diego, allowing five hits and two walks with five strikeouts in eight scoreless innings.
Impact After escaping a bases-loaded jam in the first inning, Lopez rolled through San Diego's lineup en route to a tidy fourth victory to give him a share of the league lead. The 26-year-old fired 65 of 97 pitches for strikes and has now prevented the opponent from scoring in four of his six starts, compiling an MLB-best 1.00 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 35 strikeouts in 36 innings in the process. He'll look to keep it going against Milwaukee next weekend.

Handed first loss Lopez (3-1) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks over 4.2 innings Monday, striking out seven and taking a loss against Arizona.
Impact Lopez's 18.1-inning scoreless streak was ended almost immediately when he coughed up a two-run shot to David Peralta with one out in the first inning. The 26-year-old later allowed two more runs in the fifth, including another RBI from Peralta that knocked him out of the game. After allowing just one run through 23.1 innings to begin the year, Lopez saw his ERA climb to 1.61 in the loss. He's projected to take the mound in San Diego this weekend.
