Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Dealing with bruised shoulder
Manager Craig Counsell said that Boyd left Friday's game against the Mariners due to a bruise on his left shoulder, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
Boyd made a great catch on a 105-mph comebacker during the fifth inning of Friday's contest, but it seems he didn't quite come away from it unscathed. The 34-year-old southpaw said after the game that he's not too concerned about his shoulder at this point, so he should still be able to make his next scheduled start in St. Louis next week.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Strikes out six in no-decision
Boyd did not factor into the decision in Friday's 9-4 loss to the Mariners, allowing two runs on two hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings.
Boyd generated nine swinging strikes and was given a surprisingly early hook at just 76 pitches after making a miraculous catch on a comebacker to record his final out. The outing snapped a streak of four straight quality starts for the southpaw, but he's now gone at least five innings while allowing three earned runs or fewer in 14 of 15 outings this season. He'll take a 2.84 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 79:21 K:BB across 85.2 innings into a road matchup with the Cardinals next week.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Sharp in sixth win
Boyd (6-3) picked up the win Saturday, allowing a run on one hit and one walk over six innings in a 2-1 victory over the Pirates. He struck out three.
The veteran southpaw fired 63 of 93 pitches for strikes in his fourth straight quality start and 10th of the year, but Boyd looked like he might have to settle for a no-decision until Dansby Swanson broke a 1-1 tie by going yard in the sixth inning. Boyd will take a 2.79 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 73:19 K:BB through 80.2 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Mariners.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Notches another quality start
Boyd didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Phillies after giving up two runs (one earned) on eight hits and two walks in six innings. He didn't record a strikeout.
While it was the first time all season that Boyd fanned fewer than three, that didn't stop him from producing his third quality start in a row and ninth overall in 2025. The veteran left-hander had tallied at least six strikeouts in six of his prior seven outings before Monday, so fantasy managers should expect him to rebound in this area going forward. Boyd has worked to a strong 2.89 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 70:18 K:BB across 74.2 innings ahead of soft matchup slated for this weekend versus the Pirates, who are batting a mere .199 against left-handers since May 1.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Takes hard-luck loss
Boyd (5-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Nationals, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk over 7.1 innings. He struck out six.
Boyd was excellent Wednesday, holding the Nationals scoreless through six innings and without a hit for five. However, Amed Rosario led off the seventh with an opposite-field home run, which would prove to be enough to stick Boyd with the loss, his first since April 16, in a 2-0 defeat. The left-hander has turned in quality starts in five of his last six outings. Boyd's ERA sits at 3.01 with a 1.19 WHIP and 70:16 K:BB across 12 starts (68.2 innings). He'll look to get back into the win column in his next turn through the rotation, currently scheduled for next week in Philadelphia.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Rebounds with six dominant frames
Boyd (5-2) earned the win over Colorado on Wednesday, allowing an unearned run on four hits and no walks while striking out eight batters over six innings.
Boyd recorded his shortest -- and arguably worst -- outing of the season in his previous trip to the mound, giving up four runs over four innings against Cincinnati last Friday. The southpaw bounced back with perhaps his finest start of the campaign Wednesday, as he limited the Rockies to an unearned run while racking up 13 whiffs and tying a season high with eight punchouts. Boyd also tied a season high by completing exactly six innings, which he's done in seven of his 11 starts this season. The 34-year-old hurler is already more than halfway to his career-best win total (nine), and he's gotten there with a strong overall line that includes a 3.08 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 64:15 K:BB through 61.1. frames.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Lasts four innings Friday
Boyd didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 13-6 win over the Reds, giving up four runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out three batters across four innings.
Boyd put his team in an early hole by allowing the Reds to drive in three runs during the first inning. After throwing 93 pitches in four frames, he left the game with the Cubs trailing 4-2 but was saved from a loss by Chicago's 11-run outburst across the final three innings. The 34-year-old southpaw will carry a 3.42 ERA and 1.32 WHIP into his next meeting at home against an unimpressive Rockies squad.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Fans eight in fourth win
Boyd (4-2) picked up the win Saturday, giving up three runs on four hits over six innings in a 7-3 victory over the White Sox. He struck out eight without walking a batter.
The veteran southpaw did serve up solo shots to Chase Meidroth in the first inning and Tim Elko in the fifth, but otherwise Boyd was firmly in control as he delivered his third straight quality start and sixth of the year. The eight Ks tied his season high, and Boyd will take a 2.98 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 53:13 K:BB through 51.1 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Cincinnati.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Punches out season-high eight
Boyd did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Mets, allowing two runs on six hits and no walks over six innings. He struck out eight.
The veteran southpaw generated a solid 16 whiffs in this 92-pitch performance to notch his fifth quality start. Boyd limited the Mets to just two extra-base hits, both of which produced runs -- a Luis Torrens triple in the second and a Mark Vientos solo homer in the sixth. The 34-year-old Boyd has been a dependable arm in his first season with the Cubs, pitching to a 2.78 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 45:13 K:BB across 45.1 innings. His next start is scheduled to be against the White Sox at home next weekend.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Secures third victory
Boyd (3-2) earned the win over San Francisco on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over six innings.
The only runs Boyd allowed came on a Luis Matos homer in the fourth inning. The left-handed hurler was otherwise excellent, finishing with 16 whiffs and tying a season high with seven punchouts. Boyd also didn't walk a batter for the first time this season and notched his fourth quality start through seven outings. He now has a 37:13 K:BB over 39.1 frames along with a 2.75 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. Boyd's next start is projected to be a tough road matchup against the Mets.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Fans six in no-decision
Boyd did not factor into the decision against the Pirates on Wednesday, allowing two runs on six hits and three walks while striking out six over five innings.
Boyd gave up one run in the first and fourth innings, but he faced the minimum number of batters in the two frames in between and was in line for the win until the Cubs yielded three runs in the fifth. He generated 12 whiffs and 16 first-pitch strikes while tossing 83 pitches (52 strikes), and he has recorded at least five strikeouts in four of six starts this season. He's slated to make his next start at home against the Giants next week.

Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Survives six frames for second win
Boyd (2-2) collected his second win Wednesday against the Dodgers, giving up six runs (three earned) on 10 hits and a walk while striking out four batters across six innings.
Boyd can thank his own throwing error in the fifth inning for taking three earned runs off his final statline. He can also thank the Cubs' hitters for allowing him to collect a win by keeping up with the Dodgers' star-studded offense, which had little trouble creating traffic on the basepaths against the 34-year-old lefty. Thanks to two straight scoreless starts to begin the campaign, Boyd still carries a 2.54 ERA and 1.38 WHIP through 28.1 innings, and he's lined up to have a favorable matchup during his next start against the Pirates, who own the second-lowest OPS (.639) in the National League.
