    Brewers' Trevor Megill: Picks up seventh save

    Megill picked up the save in Friday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Astros, recording two strikeouts in a hitless and scoreless 10th inning.

    After Abner Uribe pitched a scoreless bottom of the ninth inning in a 4-4 game, Megill came on to pick up his seventh save of the season after Milwaukee pushed across one run in the top of the frame on a Brice Turang sac fly. Megill has now converted his last four save chances and has surrendered just two earned runs across his last 15 appearances dating back to April 16. He's lowered his ERA from 14.40 to 4.50 during that span and has a 25:6 K:BB across 20 innings this season.

  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Shaky in no-decision

    Meyer did not factor into Friday's decision against the Mets, allowing six runs (five earned) on six hits and three walks while striking out six across six innings.

    Meyer put the Marlins in an early hole after giving up four runs in the first inning. He completed six innings despite the early setback, finishing with 10 whiffs while tossing 70 strikes on 106 pitches (66.0 percent). Despite giving up a season-high five earned runs, Meyer escaped with the no-decision thanks to his Marlins teammates. He sits at a 2.97 ERA and 1.10 WHIP across 66.2 innings this season, and his 74 strikeouts are sixth-most in the National League. Meyer is slated to start next week on the road against the Nationals.

  • Coleman Crow SP | MIL

    Brewers' Coleman Crow: Goes four innings Friday

    Crow didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Astros, allowing four runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks with one strikeout across four innings.

    With Logan Henderson (back) placed on the injured list earlier in the week, Crow got the promotion and made his third start of the season for Milwaukee. He wasn't particularly effective against Houston, generating five swinging strikes on 61 pitches while surrendering three extra-base hits, including a solo homer to Cam Smith. Crow has yet to throw more than 77 pitches in any of his three outings and now owns a 3.14 ERA and 8:3 K:BB across 14.1 big-league innings this season.

  • Blake Snell SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Blake Snell: Transferred to 60-day IL

    The Dodgers transferred Snell (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Friday.

    Snell missed more than a month at the start of the season while working his way back from shoulder fatigue, and he's now due for another extended absence after undergoing surgery on his left elbow Tuesday. He remains without a firm return timeline, though moving to the 60-day IL will force him to remain sidelined at least through the All-Star break. His 40-man spot will go to Santiago Espinal, who re-signed with the Dodgers on a major-league deal Friday.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: Placed on IL

    The Dodgers placed Hernandez on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left hamstring strain.

    Hernandez was diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain earlier Friday, and manager Dave Roberts said that the 33-year-old outfielder doesn't have a timeline for his return. Alex Call will start in left field for the Dodgers on Friday but could split reps with Ryan Ward, who was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

  • Jack Dreyer RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Won't go on rehab assignment

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Dreyer (shoulder) will not go on a rehab assignment and will be activated from the 15-day injured list when eligible June 1, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Dreyer landed on the 15-day IL in mid-May due to left shoulder discomfort. The extended rest appears to have been enough to warrant a minimum stint on the IL for the left-hander, who is tracking toward being available out of the Dodgers' bullpen for their series opener against the Diamondbacks on Monday. Prior to his injury, Dreyer posted a 2.08 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, three holds and a 24:6 K:BB across 21.2 innings.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: Has Grade 1 hamstring strain

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters Friday that Hernandez was diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and does not have a timeline for a return, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Hernandez is expected to go on the 10-day injured list after injuring his left hamstring during Wednesday's game against the Rockies. The Grade 1 diagnosis indicates that the strain isn't considered severe, but a lack of a recovery timeline is concerning for the veteran outfielder. With Enrique Hernandez (oblique) also sidelined, Alex Call and Ryan Ward are both candidates to see more reps in the outfield.

  • Ethan Holliday SS | COL

    Rockies' Ethan Holliday: Undergoing season-ending surgery

    Holliday will undergo surgery for a stress fracture in his left foot and miss the rest of the 2026 season, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    Holliday underwent several examinations after being removed from Single-A Fresno's lineup last week due to a left foot injury. The injury is severe enough to require surgery and will sideline the 19-year-old prospect for the rest of the 2026 season. He'll end the season slashing .262/.395/.557 with one steal, two triples, nine home runs and 32 RBI across 152 plate appearances.

  • Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Not in Friday's lineup

    Arenado (groin) is not in the Diamondbacks' starting lineup against the Mariners on Friday.

    Arenado will be out of the Diamondbacks' lineup for a second consecutive game while recovering from right groin tightness that popped up in Tuesday's game against the Giants. Jose Fernandez will start at third base and bat eighth in Friday's series opener, but Arenado told reporters that he could be available off the bench and return to the lineup for Saturday's contest, per Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic.

  • Dodgers' Santiago Espinal: Back with Dodgers

    The Dodgers signed Espinal to a contract Friday, Maddie Lee of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Espinal was outrighted to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday after clearing waivers, but he's back with the big club largely due to Enrique Hernandez going on the injured list due to a significant left oblique injury. With Hernandez sidelined and Hyeseong Kim optioned to Triple-A, Espinal could see some work at second and third base in a depth role behind Max Muncy and Alex Freeland.
