Little (1-1) picked up the win Friday over the Yankees, giving up a hit and striking out two in 1.2 scoreless innings of relief.

Entering the game in the sixth inning, Little wound up getting credited with his first career major-league win after Kevin Gausman failed to last the minimum five frames to qualify. The 27-year-old southpaw has been a reliable option in the Toronto bullpen over the last month-plus, posting a 2.45 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 9:5 K:BB in 11 innings since the beginning of July with five holds in 13 appearances.

Green struck out the side in a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his eighth save of the season in an 8-5 win over the Yankees.

Facing the top of New York's order, Green needed 16 pitches to sit down Alex Verdugo, Juan Soto and Aaron Judge in a very impressive performance. The right-hander appears set as the Blue Jays' closer for the rest of the season unless Jordan Romano is able to make a late return from arthroscopic surgery on his elbow, and Green has earned the role by posting a 1.84 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB through 14.2 innings since the beginning of July while converting all six of his save chances.

Urena (3-6) took the loss Friday against the Red Sox, allowing seven runs on eight hits and no walks over four innings. He struck out two.

The veteran right-hander made his first start since June 5, firing 69 total pitches in this outing. Despite entering with an impressive 2.84 ERA over 31.2 innings across six starts this season, Urena was knocked around by the Red Sox, yielding three extra-base hits en route to a season-worst seven runs. With Max Scherzer (shoulder) hitting the injured list Friday, Urena likely sticks in the Texas rotation for the time being. He lines up to face the Yankees on the road in his next start.

Hader picked up a save against the Rays on Friday, allowing one walk in a scoreless ninth inning..

Hader entered the game with a one-run lead, and the tying runner got on base, but he managed to escape with his 22nd save in his 23rd opportunity this season. Hader now has 10 saves in July and hasn't blown a save since April 2nd. The 30-year-old allowed three runs on Monday, but outside of that, he hasn't allowed a run in his eight other appearances since July 9.

Martin (0-1) took the loss Friday against the Twins, allowing four runs on six hits and three walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out five.

The Chicago right-hander was unable to prevent the White Sox's 18th consecutive loss, as he stumbled out the gate by allowing a 409-foot, two-run homer to Royce Lewis in the first inning. Lewis had Martin's number in this outing, as the Minnesota slugger later laced a two-run double in the third. Despite the rough 75-pitch performance, Martin should remain the White Sox rotation as Drew Thorpe (right flexor strain) was placed on the injured list Friday. He lines up to make his next start against the Athletics in Oakland next week.

The Mariners designated de Geus for assignment Friday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

De Geus has spent the majority of the season with Triple-A Tacoma. Across his 32 outings in the minors, he's registered seven saves with a 6.60 ERA, 1.73 WHIP and 21:11 K:BB across 30 innings.

The Mariners placed Santos on the 15-day injured list with right biceps inflammation Friday, retroactive to Thursday.

Santos' bicep caused him to make an early exit from Wednesday's game, and it will now officially keep him sidelined for at least another two weeks. JT Chargois, who was recently acquired in a trade with Miami, was added to the active roster to fill the opening in Seattle's bullpen.

The Mariners claimed Hernandez from waivers Friday.

Hernandez was designated for assignment by the Rangers on Tuesday after Texas acquired southpaw Andrew Chafin in a trade with Detroit. Across 26 major-league outings this season, Hernandez has a 5.05 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 36:26 K:BB across 41 innings. The 28-year-old right-hander will likely begin his tenure with his new organization with Triple-A Tacoma, but he could make his way back to the majors if the Mariners require his arm out of the bullpen.

The Rangers recalled Pennington from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

Pennington was assigned to Round Rock after being acquired by the Rangers on Monday from the Royals in exchange for Michael Lorenzen. Across 39 outings in Triple-A this season, Pennington has a 2.13 ERA with 84 strikeouts across 63.1 innings. His move to the big club corresponds with the Rangers placing right-hander Max Scherzer (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list.

Martin (elbow) is on pace to return during Boston's upcoming series against the Astros, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

The Red Sox will likely look to get Martin into a few rehab games in the minor leagues, but assuming he doesn't face any setbacks, a return to the bullpen should come in roughly seven days. The 38-year-old reliever put up a 3.42 ERA and 1.03 WHIP through 26.1 innings prior to landing on the IL in early July.
