He forced 13 swinging strikes and his sinker touched 96 mph. Through three starts this season, Valdez has produced a 2.60 ERA with a 16:6 K:BB across 17.1 frames. He's currently projected for a home start against the Mariners next weekend.

The star infielder had been in a short slump recently, going 6-for-30 (.200) with one extra-base hit over his previous seven games. Still, he's sporting a strong .342/.414/.596 slash line with four steals, 15 extra-base hits and 21 runs scored through 28 games.

Littell was able to return to form and pitch two more scoreless frames before exiting after the sixth, securing his first quality start since March 30. The 28-year-old will carry a 3.27 ERA into his next projected start Saturday at home versus the Mets.

2h agoHaliburton is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks due to back spasms, Jeremiah Johnson of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

-
Jeremiah Robinson-Earl NO PF
Pelicans' Jeremiah Robinson-Earl: Iffy for Monday
2h agoRobinson-Earl is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder due to a left ankle sprain.
It's unclear when Robinson-Earl suffered the injury, as he's played only five minutes across the first three games of the opening-round series and didn't see any action during Saturday's Game 3 loss. If Robinson-Earl is ruled out, his absence shouldn't impact the Pelicans' rotation.
-

1m agoShesterkin will get the starting nod for Game 4 in Washington on Sunday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

Namestnikov took a Nate Schmidt slapshot off the head in the third period but was able to skate back to the locker room with some assistance, which is a positive sign. The team should have an update on Namestnikov's status after some more testing, but his availability for Game 5 on Tuesday is in doubt at this stage. He had one shot on goal in 10:05 of ice time Sunday.
