Henderson went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 3-2 loss to Washington.

Henderson is mired in a deep power outage, but he was at least able to rip his second double of the month of May on Friday. The All-Star shortstop hasn't homered since April 26, which is a 16-game drought without a long ball. He's hitting a paltry .202 with 18 extra-base hits, 22 RBI, 23 runs scored and five stolen bases across 188 at-bats on the year.

Hoskins went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks and an additional run scored during the Guardians' 7-6 loss to the Reds on Friday.

Hoskins reached base safely in three of his five plate appearances in Friday's game, and he collected his fourth home run of the season when he took Andrew Abbott deep to left field in the sixth. Hoskins has logged three homers in 12 games since May 1, but he has gone just 5-for-28 (.179) this month.

Bibee (0-6) took the loss against the Reds on Friday, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two across 6.2 innings.

Bibee put the Guardians on the back foot early by allowing two runs in the second inning. He allowed just one run the rest of the way and came away with his fourth quality start of the season, but Bibee was still tagged with the loss and is still searching for his first win of 2026. He'll take a 4.15 ERA and 1.35 WHIP (across 52 innings) into his next start, which is slated for next week on the road against the Marlins.

Mayer went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run during the Red Sox's 3-2 extra-inning loss to Atlanta on Friday.

Friday's contest was a low-scoring affair, and Meyer ended up tying things at 2-2 in the seventh inning with a solo homer. It was his second home run of the season and first since April 3. Meyer has struggled at the plate as of late, but perhaps Friday's performance was a sign of things to come for the 23-year-old second baseman.

Early did not factor into the decision Friday against Atlanta. He allowed two runs on five hits while striking out six without a walk across five innings.

Both of the runs Early gave up came on solo home runs by Drake Baldwin and Michael Harris in the first and fourth frames, respectively. Early was solid outside of those two long balls, and he ended up avoiding the loss after his Red Sox teammates scored two runs across the sixth and seventh innings. The 24-year-old southpaw has a 3.21 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 45:18 K:BB across 47.2 innings this season, and he's slated to face the Royals on the road next week.

Fluharty will serve as Toronto's opening pitcher for Saturday's game in Detroit, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Fluharty has already worked as an opener once before this season, allowing one run on two hits and a walk in an April 4 game against White Sox. Now sporting a 5.40 ERA and 1.40 WHIP through 15 innings on the season, Fluharty will be trusted him to handle the first inning or two of Saturday's contest before the Blue Jays send in Spencer Miles for bulk-relief duties.

Diaz went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk during Tampa Bay's 7-2 win over Miami on Friday.

Diaz got the Rays on the board early with a two-run home run off Janson Junk in the first inning, which was the former's second home run in May and sixth of the season. It was also the sixth multi-RBI game of the season for Diaz, who is slashing .297/.378/.449 with 26 RBI, 21 runs scored and one steal across 180 plate appearances.

Walls went 1-for-3 with three RBI during the Rays' 7-2 win over the Marlins on Friday.

Walls brought Cedric Mullins home on a groundout to first, and the former tacked on two more runs for Tampa Bay with a double to right field. Walls' three RBI on Friday were a season high, and it's the third time in four games that he's driven in at least one run. He has gone 4-for-14 (.286) with five RBI and two runs scored over his last four games.

Mullins went 4-for-4 with three singles, one steal, a solo home run and two additional runs scored during the Rays' 7-2 win over the Marlins on Friday.

Mullins utilized the bunt to get on base in both of his first two at-bats before smacking his third home run of the season (and first since April 18) in the sixth inning. He also logged his ninth steal of the season, which puts him eighth in the American League and second on the Rays behind Chandler Simpson (14). Over his last seven games, Mullins has gone 9-for-24 (.375) with three steals, one home run, five RBI and five runs scored.

Seymour allowed one run on two hits while striking out two across two innings while serving as the opener in the Rays' 7-2 win over the Marlins on Friday.

Seymour made his first start of the season Friday against Miami and went two innings as the opener, giving up a solo home run to Connor Norby in the second before handing the keys to Jesse Scholtens. Seymour has yielded a home run in two of his last three outings and has a 5.48 ERA and 1.36 WHIP over 21.1 innings this season. It's possible that Seymour operates as the Rays' opener when Scholtens makes his next appearance, which is tentatively slated for next week at home against the Orioles.
