Detmers got a no-decision in a 13-6 loss to the Astros on Friday, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks with three strikeouts in four innings.

Detmers pitched well Friday but was stung by the long ball, allowing both runs on solo shots by Jose Altuve and Aledmys Diaz. Manager Joe Maddon took an understandably conservative approach with the former top prospect, who struggled during the 2021 campaign. The 22-year-old is scheduled to face the Rangers for his next start Friday.

Odorizzi took a no-decision during Friday's 13-6 victory over the Angels, allowing two runs on six hits with two strikeouts in four innings.

Odorizzi surrendered both runs in the first but settled down to limit Los Angeles' offense thereafter and bide time for Houston's offense to ignite. The 32-year-old is set to face Seattle in his next start Friday and should hold the fifth spot in Houston's rotation at least until Lance McCullers returns from injury.

Kelly took a no-decision in Friday's 3-0 loss to San Diego, allowing no runs on four hits and two walks with seven strikeouts across four innings.

Kelly quieted a potent Padres offense and was able to keep Arizona competitive before the bullpen caved. Manager Torey Lovullo only let Kelly get through the lineup twice, as the Padres made him grind through a 28-pitch first inning and 25-pitch fourth inning that inflated his pitch count to 75. The 33-year-old lines up to face the Mets in his next start Friday.

Rodriguez allowed three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two over four innings Friday against the White Sox. He didn't factor into the decision.

Rodriguez gave up three runs in the first two innings of Friday's matchup before escaping with a no-decision. The 29-year-old posted a career-worst 4.74 ERA and 1.39 WHIP in 32 appearances (31 starts) last year, but he had a career-best 27.4 percent strikeout rate. Rodriguez tentatively lines up to make his next start against the Red Sox on Wednesday at home.

Buehler (1-0) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks over five innings Friday, striking out five and picking up a win over the Rockies.

All the damage against Buehler came in the second inning when he coughed up two runs on three hits. The 27-year-old righty kept the Rockies scoreless for the next three frames, finishing his outing with 78 pitches (53 strikes). He posted a 6.52 ERA in 9.2 innings this spring as he works to shake off the rust from a long offseason. Buehler is expected to face the Reds at home next week.

Freeland (0-1) yielded five runs on five hits and two walks over 3.2 innings Friday, striking out six and taking a loss against the Dodgers.

Freeland rolled through three shutout frames before the Dodgers jumped him in the fourth. He allowed three runs to cross the plate before he left the game and was charged with two more from runners he left on base. The lefty is now 4-10 with a 4.17 ERA in his career against the Dodgers. Freeland is lined up to face the Cubs at home next week.

Ray (1-0) allowed one run on three hits and four walks over seven innings Friday, striking out five and earning a win over the Twins.

Making his first start after landing a $115 million deal last offseason, Ray fired 96 pitches across seven innings of one-run ball. The lone blemish on his outing was a solo shot by Gio Urshela in the fourth frame. The 6-foot-2 southpaw has dealt with command issues throughout his career, registering a career 3.9 BB/9 entering the 2022 campaign, so the four walks shouldn't come as much of a surprise. Ray is expected to face the White Sox on the road next week.

Ryan (0-1) allowed two runs on two hits and four walks over four innings Friday. He struck out four and was handed a loss by Seattle.

The 25-year-old coughed up a two-run shot to Mitch Haniger in the first inning before settling in for three shutout frames. On top of walking four batters, he also hit Ty France with a pitch. Ryan has never had real command issues as a professional, including last season when he issued just five free passes through 26.2 innings at the big-league level. Ryan is expected to take the mound in Boston next week.

Cole allowed three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out three in four innings during Friday's win over the Red Sox. He didn't factor into the decision.

The start of Cole's Opening Day start didn't go as planned, as the right-hander allowed a walk, a homer, a single and a double before recording an out. However, he settled down later in the outing and allowed just two baserunners during the rest of the outing. Cole tossed 68 pitches in his regular-season debut and will attempt to improve his results in his next outing. He tentatively lines up to start at home against the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

Webb didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Marlins, allowing one run on five hits and a walk over six-plus innings. He struck out three.

The right-hander blanked Miami over six frames, but after walking Joey Wendle on four pitches to begin the seventh, Webb was replaced by Dominic Leone and watched Wendle come around to score two batters later. The win then slipped through his fingers when Camilo Doval blew the save in the top of the ninth. Webb still got his season off to a flying start, and he'll look to keep that momentum going Wednesday at home against the Padres.
