Miller (3-1) allowed one run on three hits and struck out seven without walking a batter over five innings, taking the loss Friday versus the Red Sox.

Miller was strong again, throwing 46 of 66 pitches for strikes in a planned short start with Luis Castillo working in the long-relief role. However, the Mariners got no-hit through 6.1 innings and didn't score until the ninth, leaving Miller with no run support in a hard-luck loss. The right-hander is now at a 1.58 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 43:5 K:BB over 40 innings through seven appearances (six starts) this season. The Mariners plan to have all of their starters work in a tandem situation at least once prior to the All-Star break. With Miller getting his done now, he should see something closer to a traditional starter's workload in his next outing.

Durbin went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and three total runs scored in Friday's 6-2 win over the Mariners.

Durbin has five homers this season, four of which have come over his last seven games. The third baseman is batting .271 (13-for-48) in June, but he's at just .203 with a .609 OPS on the year. He's added 28 RBI, 25 runs scored, five stolen bases, 13 doubles and a triple over 66 contests as the Red Sox's primary starter at third base.

Gordon (hip) will face hitters Saturday and could begin a rehab assignment shortly thereafter, MLB.com reports.

Gordon is at Coors Field with the team on its current homestand and will be re-evaluated following his throwing session Saturday. He served as a swingman for the Rockies prior to landing on the injured list.

Suarez (3-3) allowed one hit and three walks while striking out five over 6.2 scoreless innings to earn the win Friday over the Mariners.

Suarez didn't allow a hit until Josh Naylor's one-out double in the seventh inning. After ending May in shaky form, Suarez has allowed just three runs over 18 innings while posting an 18:5 K:BB across three starts in June. The southpaw has a 2.93 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 75:24 K:BB through 76.2 innings across 14 starts this season, including six scoreless outings. He is lined up to make his next start in Colorado.

Griffin (forearm) threw from 150 feet with no pain Friday, MLB.com reports.

Griffin has been rehabbing in Florida for roughly the last week and has increased his throwing distance from 90 to 150 feet in that span. He's expected to return in late June, but he will still likely need to embark on a rehab assignment before being activated.

Reynolds (groin) went 1-for-1 with an RBI in Friday's game against the Rockies.

Reynolds was a late scratch from the lineup, but he entered the game as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and managed to deliver an RBI single. While that was a positive indication that his injury isn't particularly serious, Reynolds was immediately removed from the game in favor of a pinch runner. Injury aside, Reynolds is in the midst of a 10-game hitting streak, during which he has gone 16-for-38 with four homers, nine RBI and eight runs scored.

Lawlar was removed from Friday's game against the Twins with an apparent injury, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Lawlar legged out an infield single on a bunt in the eighth inning, but he tweaked something while doing so and was immediately lifted for a pinch runner. It's not immediately clear what the 23-year-old is dealing with, but the team may have an update on his status after the game. If he ends up needing to miss time, Jorge Barrosa would be the next man up to start in center field.

Langford went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and two RBI in Friday's 9-7 win over the Padres.

Langford gave the Rangers the lead in the fourth with an RBI double before providing some insurance with a solo homer in the eighth. The 24-year-old has played well since returning from the injured list June 5, hitting .288 with seven extra-base hits, seven RBI, nine runs scored and a stolen base across 13 games. For the year, he's slashing .258/.300/.447 with five home runs, 11 RBI, 18 runs scored and four steals over 140 plate appearances.

Sheets went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Friday's 9-7 loss to the Rangers.

Sheets opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before adding a solo blast in the eighth. The 30-year-old has gone deep twice in his past six games, though he's hitting just .195 through 15 June contests overall. On the season, he's slashing .230/.318/.456 with 12 homers, 32 RBI, 29 runs scored and four steals across 245 plate appearances.

France went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a double and five RBI in Friday's 9-7 loss to the Rangers.

France had Jacob deGrom's number, launching a grand slam in the first inning before adding a game-tying solo shot in the fourth. It was an unexpected effort from the 31-year-old, who entered the contest just 5-for-38 in June and without a homer since May 29. On the year, he's slashing .259/.306/.490 with eight long balls, 24 RBI, 17 runs scored and a stolen base across 158 plate appearances.
