Notches double-digit Ks again Bradley (8-3) earned the win over Cleveland on Tuesday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks with 10 strikeouts over seven innings.

Impact Bradley surrendered a solo homer to Rhys Hoskins in the second inning, but that was the only time the Guardians were able to get in the scoring column. The right-hander was absolutely dominant with a massive 25 swinging strikes en route to 10 punchouts. Bradley has registered double-digit strikeouts three times this season, including in each of his past two starts. He had a rough stretch in late May through mid-June, posting a 7.78 ERA across four starts, but he's since turned things around with three wins, a 2.25 ERA and a 32:8 K:BB across 24 innings spanning his past four outings. Bradley's next start will likely be after the All-Star break in Chicago against the Cubs.

Fans 11 in win Bradley (7-3) allowed one run on four hits and three walks while striking out 11 over five innings to earn the win over Houston on Wednesday.

Impact Bradley threw five solid innings, with his only hiccup in the first inning, and struck out his season high 11 batters. The righty has now pitched three straight good starts for the Twins where he has allowed only five runs in 17 innings to lower his ERA to 3.86. The 25-year-old is slated to pitch next week against the Guardians.

Let down in no-decision Bradley did not factor into the decision Friday versus the Rockies, giving up two runs on three hits and three walks over seven innings. He struck out seven.

Impact Bradley fired seven scoreless innings but returned for the eighth, when he allowed a double and a walk that came around to score after his exit. The Minnesota bullpen then surrendered five runs during the ninth inning to prevent him from picking up his seventh win of the season. Despite that misfortune, it's still a second consecutive quality outing for Bradley, who has allowed just two runs in each of his past two starts to lower his season-long ERA to 3.98 through 15 games.

Yields two runs in win Bradley (6-3) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Impact Bradley pitched well and got plenty of support from the Twins' offense, exiting with a 16-2 lead. The right-hander snapped a four-game winless stretch in which he had allowed 17 runs over 19.2 innings. For the season, Bradley has a 4.11 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 84:32 K:BB across 76.2 innings through 14 starts. He's lined up to make his next start at home versus the Rockies, which should be a favorable matchup.

Pitches into seventh inning Bradley allowed four runs on five hits and a walk while striking out seven over 6.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Cardinals on Sunday.

Impact Bradley rebounded fairly well after three straight starts in which he failed to complete five frames. He still gave up four runs, with a pair of homers accounting for three of those runs on his line Sunday. Bradley has taken a step back after starting the season in great form, but this effort could help him turn things around a bit. He's at a 4.14 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 80:30 K:BB over 71.2 innings across 13 starts this season. His next start is tentatively scheduled to be on the road in Arizona.

Impact The ball was flying out of Comerica Park as the two teams combined for eight homers, and Bradley took his share of the damage as he served up long balls to Dillon Dingler in the first inning, Riley Greene in the second and Kerry Carpenter in the fifth. It's the first time since April 24 that the right-hander has been taken deep multiple times in a game, but Bradley's been struggling since returning from a pectoral strain in late May, posting a 7.00 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and 21:12 K:BB over his last four starts and 18 innings. He'll try to regain his early-season form in his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come at home this weekend against the Cardinals.

Stumbles against ChiSox Bradley (5-2) took the loss Wednesday, giving up four runs on seven hits and five walks over 4.2 innings as the Twins fell 8-0 to the White Sox. He struck out five.

Impact The right-hander managed to get 63 of his 104 pitches into the strike zone, but Bradley's five free passes tied his career-worst mark, set as a rookie with the Rays in September 2023. Since coming off the IL on May 23, Bradley's stumbled to a 5.93 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 18:13 K:BB over 13.2 innings, suggesting he may not be 100 percent recovered from the pectoral issue that had sidelined him. He's currently scheduled to make his next start on the road early next week in Detroit.
