Tigers' Spencer Turnbull: Undergoes Tommy John surgery
Turnbull underwent Tommy John surgery Thursday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Turnbull suffered a setback in his recovery in early July, and doctors recommended Tommy John surgery after he was diagnosed with a torn UCL. The right-hander should miss most or all of the 2022 season following the procedure, and a better timetable for his return could be revealed once he resumes activities.

Kolby Allard RP | CLE
Rangers' Kolby Allard: Yields seven runs again
Allard (2-9) allowed seven runs (six earned) on six hits and three walks over three innings Friday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Mariners.
Allard coughed up four runs in the second inning, including a pair after an error by Isiah Kiner-Falefa. He then served up a three-run blast to Jarred Kelenic the following inning. The 6-foot-1 lefty has now taken the loss in seven straight starts, allowing 31 earned runs through 35.2 innings (7.82 ERA) during that span. For the year, his ERA jumped up to 5.23 alongside a 70:18 K:BB. Allard is currently projected to face the Angels at home next week.

Touki Toussaint RP | LAA
Braves' Touki Toussaint: Ineffective versus Milwaukee
Toussaint (1-2) allowed seven runs on six hits and two walks with five strikeouts across 3.1 innings, taking the loss versus Milwaukee on Friday.
The right-hander was spotted a four-run lead after one inning, but he gave it all back in the third and continued to struggle in the fourth before Sean Newcomb relieved him. Toussaint had pitched well in his first two starts of the season, but Friday's outing was a disaster. He's yielded nine runs in 17 innings with a 20:4 K:BB, and he tentatively lines up to face St. Louis on the road next week.

Corbin Burnes SP | ARI
Brewers' Corbin Burnes: Sloppy in short outing
Burnes allowed five runs on nine hits and two walks with six strikeouts in four-plus innings Friday versus Atlanta. He did not factor in the decision.
The right-hander matched his season-high marks for hits and runs allowed in a start. Burnes was in trouble from the start as Atlanta hung four runs on him in the first inning before adding one more in the fifth. By then, Milwaukee had recovered to keep him out of the loss column. The 26-year-old's ERA rose to 2.46 with a 0.97 WHIP and 152:20 K:BB through 106 innings this year. He's pitched well enough to earn the benefit of the doubt that Friday was just a hiccup, but he lines up for a tough home matchup versus San Francisco during next weekend's series.

Logan Gilbert SP | SEA
Mariners' Logan Gilbert: Yields four runs in win
Gilbert (5-2) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk over 5.2 innings Friday, striking out six and earning a win over the Rangers.
Gilbert worked through three scoreless frames before giving up a run in each of the fourth and fifth innings. He then served up two solo shots to Adolis Garcia and Jonah Heim in the sixth. Prior to Friday's outing, the rookie right-hander had gone 22.2 straight innings without giving up a homer. His ERA is now up to 4.04 alongside a 73:14 K:BB through 62.1 frames. Gilbert is projected to face the Rays on the road next week.

Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD
Rays' Tyler Glasnow: Throws off mound
Glasnow (elbow) threw off a mound Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Glasnow's session came while he was in Texas for a follow-up visit regarding his elbow. He's been optimistic for a while now that he'll return before the end of the season, and he's making steady progress, though when exactly he'll make it back is not yet clear.

Reid Detmers SP | LAA
Angels' Reid Detmers: Making major-league debut Sunday
Detmers will make his major-league debut Sunday against the Athletics.
Detmers advanced to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday and struck out nine in six scoreless frames during his lone appearance with the club. He'll serve as a starter after Alex Cobb (wrist) was placed on the injured list and Shohei Ohtani (thumb) was pushed back to start Monday, but whether Detmers remains in the big-league rotation could depend on his results Sunday.

Pablo Lopez SP | MIN
Marlins' Pablo Lopez: Throws from 60 feet
Lopez (shoulder) threw from 60 feet Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Lopez has been out for nearly three weeks with a rotator cuff strain. He's now starting to take steps in the right direction, but he has quite a few more to go through before he's back in game action.

Martin Perez SP | ATL
Red Sox's Martin Perez: Allows three homers in loss
Perez (7-7) allowed six runs on seven hits and a walk with three strikeouts in four innings, taking the loss versus Tampa Bay on Friday.
For just the second time in 21 starts, Perez yielded three home runs. The six runs allowed also matched a season high for the 30-year-old. He's now gone four starts without a win, posting an 0-3 record in that span. Perez has a 4.56 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 83:33 K:BB across 98.2 innings this season. He lines up for a favorable road start in Detroit next week.

Jameson Taillon SP | TOR
Yankees' Jameson Taillon: Fans five in win
Taillon (7-4) earned the win over Miami on Friday. He allowed five hits and two walks while striking out five over 5.2 scoreless innings.
The right-hander benefited from facing a Miami team depleted of talent at the trade deadline. Taillon was an out short of a quality start, but he's still allowed just six runs (four earned) in 31 innings in July. His strong work lately has dropped his ERA to 4.11 with a 1.24 WHIP and 98:31 K:BB across 100.2 innings overall. The 29-year-old lines up for another easy start next week versus Baltimore.
