Ginn (8-8) took the loss against the Astros on Friday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts over five innings.

Ginn opened with three scoreless frames before allowing runs in the fourth and fifth, throwing 57 of 94 pitches for strikes with nine whiffs. After opening the second half with three straight quality starts, the 27-year-old has now yielded seven earned runs over back-to-back losses. He owns a 3.60 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 118:55 K:BB across 132.1 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup with the Twins next week.

Peralta (5-11) took the loss against the Orioles on Friday, allowing five runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out six across seven innings.

Peralta fell to the Orioles on Friday for a second consecutive start, giving up seven runs over his last 11.2 frames against Baltimore. He kept the Orioles to two runs through four innings but allowed three baserunners to cross home in the fifth frame, highlighted by a two-run homer by Pete Alonso. Peralta has given up at least five earned runs six times this season, three of which have come over his last five outings. He hasn't been credited with a win since June 14 against Atlanta, and in four starts with the Rays, the veteran right-hander has a 7.17 ERA and 1.36 WHIP across 21.1 innings. Peralta is slated to take on the Tigers on the road next week.

Wesneski (3-1) earned the win against the Athletics on Friday, allowing one hit and three walks while striking out four in five scoreless innings.

Wesneski kept the Athletics off the board over five solid innings, generating 14 swinging strikes while throwing a season-high 91 pitches. It was a nice rebound after the 28-year-old allowed five runs Saturday, and he's allowed three earned runs or fewer while working five-plus frames in each of his four other starts since making his season debut July 29. He'll carry a 4.23 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 22:10 K:BB across 27.2 innings this season into a road matchup with the Mets next week.

Rogers (9-8) came away with the win against the Rays on Friday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six across seven innings.

All three of the runs Rogers gave up came in the second inning, highlighted by a two-run homer by Kenny Piper. Rogers kept the Rays off the board the rest of the way, tossing 103 pitches (75 strikes) while generating 14 whiffs and nine groundouts. It was the fourth time this season that he completed seven frames and his 12th quality start of the year, nine of which have come over his last 12 outings. Rogers will take a 4.14 ERA and 1.24 WHIP over 132.2 innings into his next start, lined up for next week on the road against the Cardinals.

Webb (8-8) took the loss against the Red Sox on Friday, allowing five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out two across 2.2 innings.

Webb looked to have things under control through the first two innings of Friday's outing, but that all came crashing down in the third frame. He gave up a three-run home run to Willson Contreras before allowing the next five batters to reach base, with Boston tallying two additional runs on a bases-loaded walk and a hit-by pitch. Webb was pulled after the HBP, marking the first time this season that he failed to complete at least three innings in a start, and the five runs he yielded were his most in a game since July 8 against the Blue Jays. He'll look to bounce back in his next start, which is lined up for next week at home against the Diamondbacks.

Gray (16-3) earned the win against the Giants on Friday, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six across six innings.

Gray didn't have his best stuff in Friday's outing, which was marred by a three-run fourth inning in which he gave up back-to-back homers to Drew Gilbert and Rafael Devers. However, Gray was able to complete six innings for a fifth consecutive start and received enough run support from his Red Sox teammates to log his 16th win of the season, which is tied with Cristopher Sanchez for most in the majors. Gray will take a 2.79 ERA and 1.16 WHIP (over 138.2 innings) into his next start, which is lined up for next week on the road against the Marlins.

Dobbins was removed from Friday's game against the Phillies with right forearm tightness, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Dobbins gave up three runs over four innings Friday and left the game with a trainer after throwing one pitch in the fifth inning. The Cardinals haven't provided any details regarding the severity of his injury, but more information could come after the game.

Misiorowski (13-5) picked up the win in Tuesday's 2-1 victory over Atlanta, scattering four hits and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out six.

The 24-year-old right-hander came out on top in a battle of NL Cy Young contenders with Chris Sale. Misiorowski didn't allow a runner to get past second base, and he delivered his fourth straight quality start and 16th of the season on 96 pitches (55 strikes). Over six outings since the All-Star break, he's racked up a 3-1 record with a 1.85 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and dominant 49:6 K:BB over 34 innings. Miz will look to keep rolling in his next trip to the mound, which is set to come at home next weekend against the Rangers.

Sale (12-9) took the loss Friday, allowing two runs on eight hits over six innings as Atlanta was downed 2-1 by the Brewers. He struck out six without walking a batter.

Matched up against Jacob Misiorowski in a battle of NL Cy Young contenders, Sale delivered his 16th quality start of the season on 94 pitches (68 strikes), but the veteran southpaw didn't get enough offensive support to avoid the loss. Sale has reeled off six straight quality starts since the All-Star break, posting a 2.19 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and stunning 49:3 K:BB in 37 innings over that stretch. Despite those impressive numbers, he'll look to snap a three-start losing streak in his next outing, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Rockies.

Manager Dan Wilson said Friday that Woo (shoulder) will not start during Seattle's weekend series against the Cubs, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Woo was removed from his most recent start Sunday against Houston after feeling soreness in his right shoulder, and although he was able to throw his normal between-starts bullpen session Thursday, the M's are still going to give the 26-year-old some extra time to recover. Wilson noted that he's optimistic Woo won't have to spend time on the injured list, though it's unknown when his next start will be. Kade Anderson will come up from Double-A to make his MLB debut Saturday, and Bryce Miller will move up in the rotation to start Sunday's series finale.
