Fitzpatrick was removed from Friday's game against the Rockies due to an apparent injury, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

After tossing a scoreless sixth inning Friday, Fitzpatrick went back out to the mound to pitch the seventh but injured himself while warming up. The Brewers will likely provide an update on his status after they take a closer look at him.

Gusto (0-1) took the loss against the Rays on Friday, allowing three runs on three hits and one walk while striking out one batter in two innings.

Gusto made his first start of the season Friday, but it was a rough outing for the 27-year-old right-hander. He gave up all three of his runs in the first inning and tossed 33 pitches before turning the keys over to Tyler Phillips in the third. Unfortunately for Gusto, he was unable to avoid the loss, as his Marlins teammates were limited to just two hits and a walk in a shutout. He has given up six runs across his two outings since being called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Snell (elbow) began playing catch Friday, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Snell still has a lot of work to do before coming off the injured list, but it's an encouraging sign that he's been cleared to throw roughly two weeks after undergoing surgery on his elbow. A clearer timeline for his return will begin to emerge as he checks off boxes during his throwing program, though he won't be eligible for activation until after the All-Star break.

The Rockies recalled Agnos from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

Agnos will rejoin the big-league roster to provide extra bullpen depth as Tanner Gordon (hip) moves to the injured list. Agnos has performed poorly in the majors this season, accumulating a 7.78 ERA and 1.57 WHIP through 37 innings.

The Rockies placed Gordon on the 15-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Tuesday, with a right hip impingement.

Gordon gave up four earned runs in just three innings during his last start Sunday, and he'll now have to wait until at least mid-June for his next chance to redeem himself. It's unclear who will fill Gordon's place in the rotation, which is scheduled to come up Saturday, but the Rockies will recall Zach Agnos from Triple-A Albuquerque to provide additional bullpen depth during Friday's game against the Brewers.

White was diagnosed with a left shoulder capsular sprain Friday and is expected to miss the rest of the season, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

The timeline for White's return is 12-to-16 weeks, and although that still leaves room for him to potentially return in September, the more likely outcome is that the Marlins simply shut him down for the year. The 21-year-old southpaw is considered to be one of the top pitching prospects in Miami's farm system, and he'll likely finish the Triple-A season with a 4.34 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 25:9 K:BB over 18.2 innings.

The Padres placed Laureano (hip) on the 60-day injured list Friday.

The move comes shortly after the team announced Laureano is expected to miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to repair his torn right labrum. Gavin Sheets is likely to move to left field for the remainder of the year, while Ty France becomes the team's new primary first baseman.

The Padres recalled Morgan from Triple-A El Paso on Friday.

With Jeremiah Estrada (knee) headed to the injured list, Morgan will return to the big leagues to replenish the Padres' bullpen depth. The 26-year-old righty owns a 6.08 ERA and 2.10 WHIP through 13.1 innings in the majors this season and will likely be limited to low-leverage work as long as he's with San Diego.

The Padres placed Estrada on the 15-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Wednesday, with right knee inflammation.

Estrada gave up a run and took the loss during his last appearance Tuesday, and he seems to have come away from the outing with a knee issue. Manager Craig Stammen said Friday that he doesn't expect the right-hander's injury to linger, per AJ Cassavell of MLB.com, so he could be cleared to return when first eligible. In the meantime, David Morgan will come up from Triple-A El Paso to round out San Diego's bullpen.

Laureano underwent surgery Friday to repair a torn right labrum, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Manager Craig Stammen said that Laureano's surgery is expected to keep him out for 4-to-5 months, making it extremely unlikely that he plays again this season. If the 31-year-old isn't able to make it back before the end of the year, he'll finish 2026 with a .203/.286/.374 slash line alongside seven homers, 21 RBI, 23 runs and seven steals over 53 games. Gavin Sheets will likely take over as San Diego's primary left fielder for the rest of the regular season, which will allow Ty France to start regularly at first base.
