Gilbert didn't factor into the decision against Atlanta on Friday, allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings.

The right-hander looked shaky out of the gate, loading the bases with the first three batters he faced, but he limited the damage to a single run, punching out Michael Harris with two men aboard. Gilbert settled in after the first, retiring 15 of the next 18 hitters he faced to post his third consecutive quality start. Over that stretch, the 28-year-old has logged a 2.50 ERA and 26 strikeouts across 18 innings, though he's come away with just one win. Gilbert will look to keep rolling in his next scheduled start against St. Louis.

Williams (10-5) earned the win over the Rays on Friday, allowing one run on seven hits and three walks while striking out three over seven innings.

Williams worked around traffic most of the night, allowing at least one baserunner in each frame until he finished with a clean seventh. The right-hander's lone blemish was a solo homer by Junior Caminero in the sixth, marking the sixth time in his last nine starts that he's limited opponents to one run or fewer. The 26-year-old will take a 3.17 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 146:76 K:BB through 150.2 innings into his next scheduled outing, a favorable matchup against Kansas City.

Barnett (1-1) allowed four runs on three hits and five walks while striking out eight over five innings to earn the win versus the Angels on Friday.

The Athletics' third-inning explosion gave Barnett enough run support, and the rookie right-hander was able to grind out five innings on 102 pitches (55 strikes) to secure his first win in the majors. It was still far from an encouraging performance for the 24-year-old, who has now given up nine runs with a 9:5 K:BB over his first nine innings in the majors. The Athletics are far out of the wild-card race and have a handful of injuries in the rotation, so there's some room for Barnett to learn on the job. He's tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Red Sox.

Soriano (10-10) allowed eight runs on six hits and five walks while striking out four over 2.1 innings to take the loss Friday versus the Athletics.

Soriano had won three of his last four starts, posting scoreless lines in each victory, but it was again the Athletics that got to him. He posted quality starts in his first two matchups against the A's this year, but they've responded by tagging him for 13 runs across eight innings in his last two starts against them. Soriano has been prone to blowups this year -- this is the eighth time he's given up five or more earned runs and the ninth time he's been charged with at least five runs. Over 29 starts, he has a 4.07 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 148:73 K:BB through 163.2 innings. He's tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Twins.

Tolle (0-1) allowed five runs on five hits and four walks while striking out two over three innings to take the loss Friday versus the Diamondbacks.

Tolle fell behind early when he gave up a solo home run to Geraldo Perdomo in the first inning. He then allowed Jordan Lawlar to score on a wild pitch in the second before Ildemaro Vargas lifted a three-run homer in the third. Tolle's second start was obviously a disappoint compared to his encouraging MLB debut versus the Pirates last week. He's now allowed seven runs with a 10:6 K:BB across 8.1 innings. Tolle has gotten at least five days of rest between every start this season, so the Red Sox may need to incorporate a sixth starter or bullpen days down the stretch if they intend to keep him on that schedule.

Flaherty did not factor into the decision in Friday's 7-5 loss to the White Sox, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks with two strikeouts over 4.1 innings.

Flaherty threw just 49 of 83 pitches for strikes and allowed runs in four separate innings. It continued an up-and-down second half for the 29-year-old, who has surrendered four or more earned runs in four of his past nine outings while holding opponents to one run or fewer in another four. He'll carry a 4.85 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 171:54 K:BB across 146.2 innings into a road matchup with the Yankees next week.

Smith (5-7) earned the win against the Tigers on Friday, allowing four runs on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings.

Smith threw just 53 of 91 pitches for strikes but generated an impressive 15 whiffs and received strong support from the White Sox offense. Though he fell short of a third consecutive quality start, the 25-year-old has now completed at least five innings in six straight outings. He'll carry a 3.95 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 118:52 K:BB across 125.1 innings into a home matchup with the Rays next week.

Lopez (5-4) took the loss Friday against the Royals, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.

Lopez was sharp in his first major-league start since June 3, working six strong innings in his return from the injured list. The right-hander has now tossed at least five frames in all but one of his 12 outings in 2025, and he's given up greater than two runs on just two occasions all year. Lopez threw 92 pitches Friday, so he shouldn't have any workload restrictions in his next scheduled appearance against the Diamondbacks. For the campaign, he has a 2.85 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 65:15 K:BB.

Wacha (9-11) notched the win Friday against the Twins, allowing one run on four hits and two walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

After failing to throw at least five innings for just the third time all season his last time out, Wacha returned to form Friday to toss 5.2 strong frames. The five strikeouts were his most since his Aug. 1 start in Toronto, and the four hits allowed were his fewest also since that same outing against the Blue Jays. The veteran right-hander has a quality 3.45 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 117:41 K:BB over 28 appearances, and he's next set to take the ball for a pivotal matchup against the division-rival Guardians.

Means (elbow) will not make his scheduled rehab start with Triple-A Columbus on Friday due to an illness, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Means' fifth rehab start will be delayed by at least a day, with the Guardians hoping that the 32-year-old southpaw will be able to pitch Saturday. Means is in the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery that he underwent in June of 2024, and the hope is that he will rejoin the Guardians' rotation before the end of the regular season.
