Singer (13-10) allowed two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out four over six innings to take the loss Friday versus the Athletics.

Singer gave up a leadoff homer in the bottom of the first to Lawrence Butler and also surrendered the first of Carlos Cortes' two solo shots in the game. While this was a sixth straight quality start for Singer, it was the first time he'd allowed a long ball in that span. He's given up eight runs over his last 36 innings while posting a 36:9 K:BB. For the season, the right-hander has a 3.94 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 149:57 K:BB across 155.1 innings over 29 starts. Singer is projected for a road start in St. Louis next week.

Pfaadt didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Twins, allowing five runs on nine hits and one walk in 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

Pfaadt has mostly struggled lately, having now tossed fewer than five innings while surrendering at least four runs in three of his last four outings. Friday was also notably the right-hander's ninth start of the season in which he was tagged for at least eight knocks, and he's now given up more hits (187) than any other pitcher in 2025. Pfaadt will take a rough 5.31 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 131:34 K:BB across 157.2 innings into a scheduled appearance against the division-rival Giants.

Pallante (6-14) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, allowing five runs (four earned) on four hits and four walks in five innings. He failed to record a strikeout.

The walks came back to haunt Pallante, who issued at least three of them for the fourth time in his last six starts. Although he's thrown at least five innings in six consecutive outings, the right-hander has permitted at least four runs in four of them. Pallante has a lackluster 5.34 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 104:57 K:BB across 155 innings in 2025, and he's lined up to face the division-rival Reds next week.

Priester (13-2) picked up the win Friday against the Cardinals, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk in 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

Priester is now on a five-start streak of yielding two runs or fewer. Additionally, he's given up two runs or fewer in 10 of his last 11 outings. The right-hander has found a home in Milwaukee this year, working to a strong 3.25 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 118:47 K:BB over 146.2 innings. He's next scheduled to face the Angels, who have a poor .651 OPS against right-handed pitching since the beginning of August.

Sears (8-11) took the loss Friday against the Rockies, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk in 4.1 innings. He struck out eight.

Sears registered 13 whiffs en route to fanning at least eight for the second time this season, but it was a weak showing besides the swing-and-miss stuff. The southpaw has now been taken deep in eight consecutive major-league appearances, which puts him up to 29 homers allowed in 26 outings this year. Friday was likely just a spot start for Sears, who holds a shaky 5.12 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 113:33 K:BB over 130 frames across time with the Athletics and Padres in 2025.

Gordon (6-6) recorded the win Friday against the Padres, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out nine.

The 27-year-old left-hander tied a season high in strikeouts, tossing at least six frames for the seventh time out of 13 outings this year as well. Since seeing his ERA balloon to 8.37 following a disastrous Aug. 10 start in Arizona, when he was obliterated for 10 earned runs, Gordon has managed to throw six innings while yielding two runs or fewer in four of his last six appearances to enhance his ERA to 6.14 for the season. He'll carry a 1.50WHIP and 55:16 K:BB over 66 frames into a scheduled start versus Miami his next time out.

The Rockies will recall Blalock from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Saturday's game against the Padres in San Diego, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Blalock owns an unsightly 8.62 ERA and 1.79 WHIP through 47 innings with the Rockies this season and hasn't been much better in Triple-A, accumulating a 9.37 ERA in 16.1 frames since being optioned to Albuquerque in mid-August. Despite his poor numbers, he'll come up from the minors to fill the opening in Colorado's rotation left by Chase Dollander's (knee) impending move to the injured list. Blalock will be welcomed back to the big leagues by a Padres squad who torched him for 12 runs in just 3.2 innings back on May 10.

Sasaki (shoulder) suffered a calf injury during his latest rehab start at Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Sasaki has been working his way back from a right shoulder impingement since mid-May and was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A on Aug. 14. The 23-year-old had been nearing the end of his 30-day window to remain out on assignment, but now that he is dealing with calf problems, he'll stay in Triple-A for at least one more start before returning to Los Angeles. Once fully healthy, the right-hander may be forced into a bullpen role given the abundance of depth already in the Dodgers' starting rotation.

The Padres recalled Sears from Triple-A El Paso to start Friday's game against the Rockies.

Sears will give the Padres' regular starters an additional day of rest by making a spot start Friday. The 29-year-old southpaw has appeared in three games with the Padres this season, allowing nine runs with an 8:3 K:BB across 14.2 innings. David Morgan (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Lopez (shoulder) threw 20 pitches off the mound Friday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Lopez will throw five more bullpen sessions over the next couple weeks, and the plan is for the right-hander to face live hitters Sept. 30. Lopez will obviously miss the remainder of the 2025 season if that's the plan, but it sounds like he should be close to fully recovered by spring training next year. While Lopez has said he wants to remain a starter, he now says he'd be open to a return to the bullpen, according to Bowman.
