Cabrera (4-7) allowed two unearned runs on one hit and one walk over six innings Friday, striking out nine and taking a loss against Washington.

Cabrera's own error contributed to a two-run first inning, but he settling in for a dominant outing. He racked up nine punchouts for the first time since May 2 and generated 16 whiffs, including seven with his changeup. Cabrera has produced an 18:4 K:BB while allowing only one earned run over his last 18.1 innings. Since returning from the injured list in July, he's registered a 3.72 ERA, lowering his season mark to 4.55 through 89 innings. Cabrera is currently in line for a home matchup against the Dodgers next week.

Stone (shoulder) is expected to begin a throwing program this weekend, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Stone landed on the 15-day injured list Sept. 6 due to right shoulder inflammation. The Dodgers' rotation is short-handed with Clayton Kershaw (toe) and Tyler Glasnow (elbow) also on the IL, but Stone at least has taken a step in the right direction with the playoffs just around the corner. Stone has an 11-5 record across 25 starts this season with a 3.53 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 140.1 innings.

Gonzales underwent flexor tendon repair surgery on his left forearm Friday, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Gonzales is expected to need 12 months before returning to play, meaning he could be sidelined for the entire 2025 campaign. The Pirates are expected to decline his $15 million team option for next season.

Manager Dave Roberts said Glasnow felt discomfort in his right elbow Friday while warming up for a simulated game, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Glasnow was slated to face live hitters for two or three simulated innings, but he instead returned to the clubhouse after warming up. The 31-year-old right-hander will get additional testing on his elbow to provide some clarity on his chances of returning before the end of the regular season, per Juan Toribio of MLB.com. Glasnow has been on the 15-day injured list since Aug. 16 due to tendinitis in his right elbow.

The Rockies optioned Gordon to Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

Gordon was called up to make a spot start Wednesday and yielded seven runs in 3.1 innings against the Tigers. He'll return to Albuquerque on Friday, giving way to Austin Gomber (paternity list) on the 26-man roster. Gordon has an 8.65 ERA in 34.1 innings for the Rockies this season.

Gomber was reinstated from the paternity list Friday. He'll start Friday's game against the Cubs.

As expected, Gomber will rejoin the team to make the start Friday. The left-hander has been impressive across his last five starts, logging a 3.00 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP with a 23:7 K:BB across 33 innings. Tanner Gordon was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move.

Glasnow didn't complete his scheduled simulated game Friday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Glasnow went straight to the clubhouse after warming up in the bullpen instead of facing hitters. It's unclear why he couldn't complete the session, but it doesn't bode well for his ability to return before the end of the regular season. Glasnow hasn't thrown for the Dodgers since Aug. 11 due to elbow tendinitis.

Hall is listed as the Brewers' starting pitcher for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks at Chase Field, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

Hall logged 5.2 innings across two relief appearances since joining the Brewers as a September call-up, and Sunday will mark his first start since he tossed seven scoreless frames in Cincinnati on Aug. 30. Hall has the potential to look excellent on the right day, but he's struggled to stay healthy for prolonged stretches while working as a traditional starter. Arizona's team .787 OPS against lefties ranks second in baseball behind Philadelphia (.800 OPS), so Hall will carry some risk as a streaming option.

Birdsong did not factor into the decision in a loss to the Brewers on Thursday, allowing two hits and one walk over five scoreless innings while striking out four.

Birdsong got off to a great start Thursday, allowing just one hit through the first four innings before being relieved in the sixth after throwing just 68 pitches. It marked the right-hander's first time going at least five innings since July 27 against the Rockies, which was also the last time that he collected a win. Additionally, it marked the first time in Birdsong's last five starts that he didn't issue multiple walks.

Montas (7-10) picked up the win over the Giants on Thursday, allowing two hits and two walks over six scoreless frames while striking out eight.

Montas stifled San Francisco's lineup, allowing just two batters to reach second base during his six innings on the mound. The right-hander generated 19 swings and misses en route to posting eight or more strikeouts for only the third time this season. It also marked Montas' second consecutive quality start to open the month, and he now carries a very strong 18:5 K:BB September to go along with a 2.25 ERA.
