Scott (4-4) took the loss against the Astros on Friday, allowing three runs on one hit and five walks with two strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

Scott battled despite throwing just 58 of 96 pitches for strikes and matching a season high with five walks. It ends an ugly August for the 27-year-old, who allowed at least three earned runs in each of his five outings while posting a 6.04 ERA overall. He'll carry a 3.80 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 113:44 K :BB across 94.2 innings this season into a road matchup with the Rays next week.

Sugano (12-8) took the loss against Atlanta on Friday, allowing six runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out four across four innings.

It was another tough outing for Sugano, who has given up at least five earned runs in each of his last three outings, with the 10 hits allowed being his most in a game since Aug. 31, 2025 against the Giants. Sugano has taken the loss in four of his last five outings, recording an 8.61 ERA, 1.83 WHIP and 17:5 K:BB over 23 innings in that span. He's tentatively slated to take on the Orioles at home next week.

Iglesias came away with the save in Friday's 6-4 win over the Rockies, allowing one hit in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not record a walk or strikeout.

Iglesias was brought out for the ninth inning to protect Atlanta's two-run lead. He allowed a leadoff single to Hunter Goodman but responded by getting TJ Rumfield to ground into a double play, with Iglesias successfully closing things out after getting Willi Castro to line out. Iglesias has logged a save in each of his last five outings and is up to 29 saves on the year, which is eighth-most in the majors. He has a 2.88 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 52:16 K:BB over 50 innings this season.

Goodman went 3-for-5 with an RBI single during Colorado's 6-4 loss to Atlanta on Friday.

It was Goodman's second multi-hit game in his last three outings and the eighth time he's recorded at least three hits in a game. The 26-year-old catcher has driven in at least one run in three of four outings since coming off the IL and is up to 73 RBI on the year, which leads the Rockies and ranks 20th among National League hitters.

Harris went 2-for-3 with a double, a homer, three RBI and two runs scored during Friday's 6-4 win over Colorado.

Harris contributed to Atlanta's three-run second inning with an RBI double before extending his team's lead to 6-3 with a two-run homer in the fifth. It was Harris' fourth multi-hit game in his last 10 outings, during which he has gone 14-for-38 (.368) with two steals, two home runs, six doubles, seven RBI and five runs scored.

Acuna went 3-for-3 with a walk, a double and three runs scored during Atlanta's 6-4 win over the Rockies on Friday.

Acuna entered Friday's game having gone 5-for-41 (.122) across his 10 prior games. He ended up setting a season high Friday with three hits, and it was the fourth time this year that he reached base safety four times. Acuna is currently sitting at a career low in batting average (.235) and has a .748 OPS in 361 plate appearances, but perhaps Friday's performance is a sign the veteran outfielder will find another gear for the stretch run.

Holmes (9-5) earned the win against the Rockies on Friday, allowing three runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out three across five innings.

Holmes set the tone early by striking out two batters in the first inning and kept the Rockies off the board through his first four frames. He gave up three runs in the fifth, but Holmes received plenty of run support from his Atlanta teammates to come away with the win. He's allowed three earned runs or less in 24 of 26 outings this season and has a 3.71 ERA and 1.34 WHIP over 128.2 innings. He's lined up to face the Phillies on the road next weekend.

The Marlins are expected to recall Gonzalez from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Gonzalez has appeared in four games at Jacksonville since joining the Marlins organization Aug. 10, during which he's given up three earned runs on three hits and five walks while fanning eight batters in four innings. Although his performance hasn't been great, the Marlins will bring him up to add a fresh arm to their bullpen.

Arenado (thumb) will start at third base and bat fifth Friday against the Giants.

Arenado was left off the first version of Friday's lineup, but he is now seemingly unbothered by the thumb inflammation that caused him to sit out Thursday, so he'll check back into the starting nine. The veteran third baseman has been in a bit of a slump recently, going 5-for-27 (.185) with eight strikeouts across his last seven games.

Waldschmidt isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Giants.

Waldschmidt will take a day to regroup after going just 1-for-10 over his last five games. Jordan Lawlar will start in center field and bat ninth while Waldschmidt sits.
