Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Knocked around in seventh loss
Ortiz (3-7) took the loss Monday against the Reds after giving up four runs on nine hits and one walk in 4.2 innings. He struck out five.
The nine hits allowed matched a season high for Ortiz, and he worked fewer than five innings for the first time since April 23 against the Yankees. Monday also marked the first time the hard-throwing right-hander yielded greater than three runs since May 6 against the Nationals, as he surrendered multiple home runs for just the second time this year while struggling with his pitch location. Ortiz owns a pedestrian 4.26 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 76:34 K:BB over 69.2 frames, and he'll look to bounce back this weekend at pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park against a slumping Mariners club that has a .600 OPS at home since the start of May.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Blanks Yankees in win
Ortiz (3-6) earned the win Wednesday over the Yankees, allowing three hits and three walks over 5.2 scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
While it's the first win since April 18 for Ortiz, the right-hander has been pitching well lately, posting a 2.27 ERA over his last five starts (27.2 innings). His ERA is down to 4.02 on the year with a 1.40 WHIP and 71:33 K:BB across 12 starts (65 innings). A matchup with Cincinnati likely waits for Ortiz in his next turn through the rotation.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Sharp in defeat
Ortiz (2-6) was hit with the loss Friday despite allowing just one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings in a 4-1 loss against the Angels.
Ortiz probably deserved better after working through six innings and allowing just one run. The Guardians trailed 1-0 when he departed the game, and as a result, he gets tagged with the loss. It continues an unfortunate pattern for the 26-year-old, who has allowed three runs or fewer in four straight starts (2.86 ERA), but is 0-3 over that same timeframe.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Issues five walks in no-decision
Ortiz allowed three runs on four hits and five walks while striking out three over five innings in a no-decision Saturday versus the Tigers.
The five walks matched a season high for Ortiz, who has issued at least two walks in all but one of his 10 starts so far. The Tigers put up all their runs against him in the first inning, though Ortiz was in line for the loss before the Guardians tied the game in the eighth. The right-hander is now at a 4.73 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 59:28 K:BB across 53.1 innings on the year. He is projected to make his next start at home versus the Angels.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Fans seven in loss
Oritz (2-5) yielded two runs on six hits and two walks over five innings Sunday, striking out seven and taking a loss against the Reds.
Ortiz worked around some danger to keep Cincinnati off the board for three innings before serving up a two-run shot to Will Benson in the fourth. Ortiz has struck out at least seven batters in five of his nine starts this season, resulting in a 56:23 K:BB through 48.1 frames. He threw 100 pitches for the third time this season and generated 16 whiffs, including nine with his slider. Ortiz will carry a 4.66 ERA into his next matchup, which is projected to be in Detroit.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Hard-luck loss Sunday
Ortiz (2-4) allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out nine over six innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Phillies.
Ortiz logged his third quality start of the season, with the lone blemish being a Kyle Schwarber solo shot in the second inning. Two of those quality starts have been in Ortiz's last three outings, though he had a clunker in between those efforts by allowing six runs (five earned) to the Nationals on Tuesday. Ortiz's overall numbers are still rather pedestrian -- he's at a 4.78 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB through 43.1 innings over eight starts, but he has shown flashes of potential. The 26-year-old's next start is projected to be at Cincinnati.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Shaky in no-decision Tuesday
Ortiz came away with a no-decision in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Nationals, coughing up six runs (five earned) on five hits and three walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out four.
The big blow off Ortiz was a two-run blast by James Wood in the third inning, but the right-hander also dealt with runners in scoring position in the first, fifth and sixth innings in the wild 10-9 loss. Ortiz tossed only 48 of 85 pitches for strikes before getting the hook, and he'll carry a 5.30 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 40:19 K:BB through 37.1 innings into his next start, which lines up to come at home this weekend against the Phillies.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Guardians versus Nats postponed
Ortiz will not start Monday after the Guardians' matchup with the Nationals was postponed due to inclement weather, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Ortiz was slated to draw the start in Monday's series opener against Washington, but he's now scheduled to take the mound for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader, per Tim Stebbins of MLB.com. The right-hander has produced a 4.78 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 36 strikeouts over 32 innings in six starts this season and he went 6.1 scoreless frames in his last outing against the Twins on Wednesday.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: No-decision in quality start
Ortiz did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's win over the Twins, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out five over 6.1 scoreless innings.
Ortiz retired the side in three of his innings Wednesday and finished with 10 whiffs and 16 first-pitch strikes on 90 pitches (56 strikes). It was Ortiz's first scoreless start of the season, and he has fanned 31 batters over his last four outings. The right-hander has a 4.78 ERA and 1.41 WHIP over 32 innings this season, and he'll look get back to a .500 record in his next start, which is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Nationals.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Strikes out eight in loss
Ortiz (2-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Yankees, allowing four runs on five hits and five walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out eight.
Ortiz got off to a rocky start Wednesday, allowing two runs in each of the first two innings. The right-hander now has at least eight strikeouts in three consecutive outings, though he's struggled with command, posting 4.91 BB/9 through his first five starts. Ortiz now sports a 5.96 ERA with a 1.56 WHIP and 31:14 K:BB across 25.2 innings this year. He's currently lined up to face the Twins at home in his next start.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Fans eight in revenge game
Ortiz (2-2) picked up the win Friday, giving up two runs on four hits and three walks over five innings in a 10-7 victory over the Pirates. He struck out eight.
Facing the club he debuted with in 2022, Ortiz fired 59 of 92 pitches for strikes, including 28 called or swinging strikes, and got plenty of run support from his new teammates. After a bumpy first outing for the Guardians, Ortiz has posted a 3.24 ERA and 21:5 K:BB over his last three starts and 16.2 innings. He'll look to keep rolling in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home next week against the Yankees.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Strikes out 10 in win
Ortiz (1-2) earned the win against the Royals on Saturday, allowing one run on one hit and two walks with 10 strikeouts over 5.2 innings.
Ortiz was a solo homer away from a spotless outing, racking up 16 whiffs on 100 pitches to earn his first win of the season. The 26-year-old owns a 6.06 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB across 16.1 innings, though much of the damage to his ratios stems from a seven-run outing March 31. He's slated to face his former team, the Pirates, in Pittsburgh next weekend.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Takes loss in quality start
Ortiz (0-2) yielded three runs on seven hits over six innings Sunday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Angels.
Ortiz gave up two runs in the second inning, starting with Logan O'Hoppe's solo shot. Jorge Soler later went deep with another solo home run in the sixth. Ortiz has been tagged with 10 runs over 10.2 frames in his first two starts of the 2025 campaign after posting a 3.32 ERA across 135.2 innings with Pittsburgh last season. He's currently in line for a home matchup against the Royals next weekend.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Knocked around in 2025 debut
Ortiz (0-1) took the loss against the Padres on Monday, allowing seven runs on nine hits and four walks while striking out two batters over 4.2 innings.
The outing started well enough for Ortiz, as he retired the side in order on three groundouts in the first inning. However, the Padres exploded for four runs in the second frame, and they tacked on three more runs against him in the fifth. A lack of control was partly to blame for Ortiz's struggles, as he walked four batters, and three of those recipients came around to score. The right-hander struggled during the spring slate, and those issues carried over into at least his first outing of the regular season. Ortiz will try to right the ship the next time he takes the mound, which is tentatively slated to be this weekend against the Angels.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Final spring outing
Ortiz allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out one over four innings in Tuesday's spring start against the Diamondbacks.
This was Ortiz's final outing of the preseason, which was a rocky one for the Guardians' winter acquisition. The right-hander finished with 14 strikeouts and 13 walks over 17.1 innings this spring. Despite his struggles, Ortiz is expected to start the third game of the regular season Sunday against the Royals.

Guardians' Luis L. Ortiz: Six walks allowed
Ortiz allowed four runs on two hits and six walks while striking out two over four innings in Tuesday's spring start against the Rangers.
It was another rocky outing for Ortiz, who made his fifth Cactus League start. The free passes continued a trend that has seen him walk 11 batters over his last 10.1 spring innings and 12 overall in 14.2 innings. Unsurprisingly, the walks have wreaked havoc on his spring ERA (11.66). Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt told Tim Stebbins of MLB.com that the right-hander's stuff plays when he's in the zone, but Ortiz needs to work on being more consistent with his delivery. "Because when we see him in the zone, we see what he can do. And that's to be an elite pitcher," Vogt said. Ortiz is short on experience in the majors, having appeared in 59 games (34 starts) since his debut in 2022. He'll continue to work with pitching coach Carl Willis to bring out the 2024 version of Ortiz, who posted a 3.32 ERA in 37 games (15 starts) for Pittsburgh.
