The Nationals selected Cosgrove's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Friday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Athletic reports.

Cosgrove was acquired via trade from the Astros last week and is now joining up with the big club. The lefty reliever has logged a 4.15 ERA and 32:22 K:BB across 30.1 innings of work at the Triple-A level this season.

The Pirates will recalled Harrington from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Harrington has had a rough season at Indianapolis, posting a 6.52 ERA and 56:26 K:BB across 58 frames. He's been used as a multi-inning reliever over the past several weeks, so Harrington will give the Pittsburgh bullpen some length.

The Pirates recalled Kelly from Triple-A Indianapolis Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Kelly made his major-league debut earlier this season for Pittsburgh, allowing two runs over 2.1 innings in his lone appearance. The 22-year-old has logged a 4.85 ERA and 54:33 K:BB over 68.2 frames at Indianapolis in 2026. Kelly is presumably up to provide the bullpen with some length.

Soto went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks and an additional run scored in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Royals.

Soto capped the scoring in the seventh inning with a 435-foot blast off Beck Way, his 21st long ball this season. Soto's now homered four times in his last seven games, going 8-for-24 (.333) with a 1.348 OPS in that span. Overall, the star outfielder is slashing .297/.414/.579 with 50 RBI, 44 runs scored and seven stolen bases across 321 plate appearances.

Naylor went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases and a run scored in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Marlins.

Naylor, who extended his hitting streak to five games Thursday, now has three stolen bases in his last two games. He's up to 18 steals in 21 attempts this year, putting him well in range to pass his career-high of 30 set last season. At the plate, Naylor's managed a .251/.312/.353 slash line with eight homers, 36 RBI and 34 runs scored across 375 plate appearances.

Canzone went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Marlins.

Canzone cut Miami's lead to 8-4 in the eighth inning with a 421-foot blast off William Kempner, his 15th homer this season. Canzone, who's been batting third of late in Seattle's order as their regular DH against right-handed pitching, has gone 6-for-22 with two homers and five RBI in his last five games. Overall, he's slashing .269/.341/.543 with 39 RBI, 33 runs scored and a steal across 246 plate appearances.

Foscue went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, a walk and two total RBI in a 7-6 win against the Angels on Thursday.

Foscue logged his first hit with a 429-foot solo homer in the fourth inning and added an RBI on a ground-rule double in the sixth. The infielder has been swinging the bat well when given the opportunity of late, producing four multi-hit performances and a .409 average with three homers, three doubles and nine RBI across his past eight contests. He's struggled to get playing time, however, as Thursday marked his first start over the Rangers' past five games.

Nimmo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a stolen base in a 7-6 win against the Angels on Thursday.

Nimmo began the scoring with a solo homer off Reid Detmers in the first inning. He then beefed up his line with a single, stolen base and run scored in the third. Nimmo had been struggling coming into Thursday, going just 1-for-13 across four contests since returning to the lineup July 4 following a four-game absence due to a shoulder injury. He's produced a decent .257/.328/.416 slash line through 87 contests but has just nine home runs, 31 RBI and four thefts, well below the pace for his usual marks in those areas.

Schanuel went 4-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, a run and two RBI in a loss to the Rangers on Thursday.

Schanuel was the star of the Angels offense Thursday, posting four of the team's 10 total hits, including both of the club's extra-base knocks. His seventh-inning single plated two runs as part of a five-run rally that resulted in a tie game, but Texas ultimately came away with a walk-off win. Schanuel was in need of a big performance -- he entered Thursday having gone just 1-for-11 over his previous three games and was batting a meager .211 across his past 10 contests.

Detmers allowed five runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out six batters over four innings in a no-decision against Texas on Thursday.

Detmers gave up a solo homer to Brandon Nimmo in the first inning, setting the tone for what would be a rough night for the left-hander. He was taken deep again in both of the third and fourth innings and was lifted after throwing 82 pitches across four frames. Detmers did manage six punchouts to at least give his fantasy managers something to find solace in, but the rough outing continued what has been a very up-and-down campaign. The 26-year-old began June looking brilliant in allowing just one run while posting an 18:2 K:BB over 20 innings across three starts, but since then he's given up exactly five runs in three of his subsequent four starts to push his season ERA up to a mediocre 4.39.
