Singer allowed three runs on six hits over seven innings in Friday's win over the Guardians. He struck out five without walking a batter and did not factor in the decision.

Singer gave up just one run through six innings before he served up a two-run homer to Franmil Reyes in the seventh. He's allowed at least three runs in six of his last eight starts, registering a 5.28 ERA during that stretch. Singer is now sporting a 4.25 ERA with a 63:13 K:BB through 65.2 frames. The 25-year-old is lined up to face the Tigers at home next week.

Civale allowed a run on six hits over seven innings in Friday's loss to the Royals. He struck out six without walking a batter and did not factor in the decision.

The only damage against Civale came on Andrew Benintendi's RBI single in the third inning. He was in line for the victory before Eli Morgan blew the lead in the eighth. Civale has posted a 4.09 ERA in four starts since returning from a month-long stint on the injured list, lowering his season ERA to 6.28 alongside a 51:15 K:BB through 53 frames. The 27-year-old righty is projected to face the White Sox at home next week.

Crawford will start Saturday's game against the Yankees, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Crawford served as a bulk reliever Monday against Tampa Bay and struck out eight in 5.1 scoreless innings. As Boston's rotation continues to deal with injuries, the right-hander will make his third major-league start of the season Saturday.

McClanahan allowed a run on three hits and two walks while striking out eight in six innings during Friday's extra-inning loss to the Reds. He didn't factor into the decision.

McClanahan was incredibly sharp once again Friday, as the lone run he gave up came via a solo homer in the bottom of the third inning. However, he didn't get much run support from the Rays and was unable to pick up a third consecutive win. The southpaw has delivered 11 consecutive quality starts dating back to May 11, and he's posted a 1.13 ERA and 94:10 K:BB in 72 innings during that time. He's a strong candidate for the AL Cy Young Award and tentatively lines up to make his final start before the All-Star break at home against the Red Sox on Wednesday.

Gausman (ankle) threw a bullpen session Friday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Gausman threw from flat ground Thursday, and Friday's session marked the first time he worked off a mound since sustaining his ankle injury last weekend. Manager Charlie Montoyo didn't rule the right-hander out for Sunday's start against Seattle.

Seabold was removed from Friday's game against the Yankees due to right forearm extensor tightness, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Seabold exited Friday's matchup with two outs in the top of the third inning due to an injury, and he's apparently dealing with a forearm issue. The right-hander will presumably be examined in the coming days to determine the severity of his injury.

Seabold was removed from Friday's game against the Yankees in the top of the third inning due to an apparent hand injury, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Seabold struggled mightily to begin Friday's matchup, allowing seven runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out two in 2.2 innings. It's possible that his injury contributed to his struggles, and he was removed from the matchup after being visited by the training staff. The nature and severity of Seabold's injury aren't yet known, and it's unclear whether he'll require a trip to the injured list.

Lorenzen's shoulder showed no structural damage in an MRI taken Friday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Lorenzen hit the injured list Thursday with a right shoulder strain, an injury which may partially explain his 13.09 ERA and 2.55 WHIP across his last three starts. Friday's test results indicate that he's avoided a worst-case scenario, but he still has more treatment to get through before he begins a throwing program.

Bradish (shoulder) will make multiple rehab appearances before being activated off the injured list, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Bradish has been out for just two weeks due to right shoulder inflammation, so he could probably return to the big leagues after just one outing if the Orioles needed him to. Considering that he struggled to a 9.61 ERA and 2.34 WHIP in his final five starts prior to the injury, however, it's not all that surprising that the team wants him to convincingly prove he's healthy and can be effective before he's allowed to return.

Sale (rib) has been officially announced as the starter for Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Sale is finally ready to go after missing the first half of the season with a stress fracture in his rib cage. He was shaky in his final rehab outing, walking five batters in 3.2 innings of work, but the Red Sox nonetheless decided he's ready for his season debut. Expect some workload limitations early on in his return, however, given that he topped out at four innings across his four rehab appearances.
