Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Corbin Burnes allowed eight runs in four innings in Friday night's defeat to the visiting division-rival Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. Burnes was roughed up for 10 hits and three walks on Friday against Boston, but he did at least strike out seven hitters while taking his fifth loss of the year in his disastrous outing for Baltimore. The 29-year-old ace right-hander will look to bounce back in his next time out, still carrying a sturdy 3.10 ERA and 1.11 WHIP while fanning 144 and walking 38 across 153 2/3 frames (25 starts) in his first year with the O's in 2024.

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Masataka Yoshida recorded three hits with a home run and four RBI in Friday night's win over the hosting division-rival Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Before hitting an RBI single in the eighth inning on Friday against Baltimore, Yoshida cranked a three-run homer off O's ace Corbin Burnes to right field to extend the Red Sox lead to 8-4 in the fourth frame. In 35 games since the start of July, the left-handed-hitting 31-year-old outfielder is batting a hot .336 (44-for-131) with six homers, 30 RBI, and 21 runs scored as Boston's primary DH against right-handed pitching.

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday collected four hits with three runs in Friday night's loss to the visiting division-rival Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. It was the first career four-hit effort for Holliday, who also notably ripped his first career triple off Red Sox right-hander Cooper Criswell to the right-field wall to bring the Orioles to within one run in the third inning on Friday against Boston. The 20-year-old top prospect has looked like a different player in his second stint in the major leagues, hitting a healthy .286 (16-for-56) with five home runs, 14 RBI, and 13 runs scored in his last 15 games.

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner tallied four hits, including a game-winning single in Friday evening's walk-off win over the visiting division-rival Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park. After ripping a double off Washington left-hander Patrick Corbin to left-center field for his third knock of the game, Turner cracked a walk-off single off the left-field fence to give the Phillies a 3-2 victory over the Nationals on Friday. The 31-year-old fantasy superstar is slashing a strong .309/.352/.475 with 13 home runs, 42 RBI, 62 runs scored, and 14 stolen bases over 343 at-bats (81 games) as Philly's primary No. 2 hitter this season.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola tossed six shutout innings with four strikeouts in Friday evening's walk-off win over the visiting division-rival Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park. Nola worked into the seventh frame on Friday against Miami, surrendering seven hits and two walks but settled for a tough-luck no-decision. The 31-year-old workhorse right-hander is 11-6 this season with a rock-solid 3.45 ERA and 1.16 WHIP with 142 punchouts and 39 walks covering 154 frames (25 starts) for the Phillies.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Dylan Carlson homered in Friday evening's series-opening walk-off win over the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks at Tropicana Field, adding a stolen base. Before hitting an RBI single in the eighth inning, Carlson cranked a solo home run off Arizona right-hander Ryne Nelson to right field to cut the Rays' deficit within 2-1 in the fifth frame on Friday against the D-backs. In his last 12 games since joining Tampa Bay, the 25-year-old former top prospect has gone 9-for-34 (.265) with three big flies, eight RBI, four runs scored, and one steal.

Kansas City Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino homered with three RBI in Friday evening's season-opening win over the hosting Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. Pasquantino crushed a three-run blast off Reds right-hander Fernando Cruz to right field to extend the Royals' lead to 7-1 in the ninth inning on Friday against the Reds. The streaky 26-year-old slugger is slashing a respectable .260/.314/.450 with 18 long balls, 26 doubles, and 88 RBI through 442 at-bats (118 games) as KC's everyday No. 3 batter in 2024.

Pittsburgh Pirates closer David Bednar earned the save in Friday evening's series-opening win over the visiting Seattle Mariners at PNC Park. Bednar gave up one run on two hits but struck out three batters on Friday against Seattle, freezing Mariners infielder Justin Turner to earn his 21st save of the year and secure the Pirates' 5-3 win in the ninth inning. The 29-year-old veteran right-hander has registered a shaky 5.83 ERA and 1.37 WHIP with 44 punchouts and 15 walks while converting 21 of his 26 save opportunities across 41 1/3 frames (44 appearances) as Pittsburgh's stopper this year.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole threw six shutout innings with eight strikeouts in Friday evening's season-opening victory over the hosting Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Cole picked up his fourth win of the season on Friday against the Tigers, allowing just four hits and two walks in a dominant outing for New York. The 33-year-old reigning American league Cy Young Award winner has logged a disappointing 4.15 ERA and 1.37 WHIP with 60 punchouts and 16 walks over 52 2/3 frames (10 starts) for the Yankees this season.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder/designated hitter Andrew McCutchen (knee) left Friday night's win over the Seattle Mariners at PNC Park early due to left-knee discomfort. McCutchen is currently being examined and treated by the medical staff. It was a bad night of injuries for Pittsburgh, as shortstop Oneil Cruz (ankle) also left late in the game. The 37-year-old McCutchen hurt his knee running to first base on a single in the seventh inning and was replaced at DH by Ji Hwan Bae. McCutchen went 1-for-3 in the game with an RBI and a strikeout. At the very least, he's unlikely to play in the second game of the series on Saturday, but fantasy managers will want to check back for the severity of his knee injury. The five-time All-Star hasn't provided fantasy managers much else besides a modest 16 long balls in his 16th year in the big leagues in 2024.

Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz (ankle) was removed from Friday night's win early over the Seattle Mariners at PNC Park due to left-ankle discomfort. Cruz is currently being examined and treated by the medical staff. The 25-year-old appeared to tweak his ankle after hitting a double in the seventh inning. Isiah Kiner-Falefa replaced him at shortstop, with Jared Triolo entering the game at second base. Before leaving, Cruz went 1-for-4 with the double, two RBI and a strikeout. Fantasy managers will want to check back for more information on Cruz, who should be considered day-to-day for now. If he's forced to miss extended time due to the ankle injury, Kiner-Falefa would likely become the team's everyday shortstop. Cruz is one of the best young shortstops in the game and entered Friday's contest with a career-high 18 homers, 59 RBI and 12 stolen bases in 107 games.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) is heading to the 15-day injured list on Friday with right-elbow tendinitis. The Dodgers recently pushed Glasnow back from his scheduled start on Friday at Busch Stadium against the St. Louis Cardinals to Saturday, and now we know why. The first-time All-Star won't be starting at all this weekend now and is set to miss at least the next two weeks. With the 30-year-old injured, Bobby Miller, who has an ERA over 8.00 in his seven starts for the Dodgers this year, will most likely rejoin the big-league roster and start in place of Glasnow on Saturday. Glasnow is tied for third among all starting pitchers with a 32.2% strikeout rate in his first year in Hollywood and has also gone 9-6 with a 3.49 ERA, a league-best 0.95 WHIP and a career-high 168 strikeouts in 134 innings over 22 starts. Keep him stashed in all fantasy formats while he recovers.

The Detroit Tigers designated infielder Gio Urshela for assignment on Friday, according to a source. The out-of-contention Tigers have decided that it's time to play the youngsters to close out the 2024 regular season. Both infield prospects Trey Sweeney and Jace Jung have been called up the last two days and figure to get plenty of opportunities to impress in their first taste of the big leagues down the stretch. Sweeney and Jung are both starting at shortstop and third base, respectively, on Friday at Comerica Park against the New York Yankees. Urshela provided very modest production for the Tigers and fantasy managers in 2024, slashing .243/.286/.333 with a well below-average .619 OPS, only five home runs, 37 RBI and 25 runs scored in 300 at-bats. He's likely to clear waivers and could be sent to Triple-A Toledo.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Matt McLain (rib cage, shoulder) has been cleared to resume baseball activities, including swinging a bat. However, there's still no date for McLain to resume a minor-league rehab assignment. It's been a trying year for McLain, who was extremely impressive in his first year in the big leagues for the Reds in 2023. The 25-year-old former first-rounder out of UCLA had offseason shoulder surgery and then suffered a stress reaction in his rib cage earlier this month just as he was on the cusp of making his 2024 debut. It's good news that he's been cleared to resume baseball activities, but he's going to need a lengthy rehab stint before joining the Reds and isn't going to have much time to help fantasy managers if he returns before the end of the year. McLain slashed .290/.357/.507 with 16 homers, 50 RBI and 14 steals last year.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Michael Siani (oblique) is meeting with doctors on Friday to determine whether he's had enough healing to begin swinging a bat. Siani has been going through fielding drills and running in the past week to prepare for a return as soon as possible. Swinging and facing live pitching will be the last hurdle for Siani as he tries to recover from a right-oblique strain. The 25-year-old received a platelet-rich plasma injection on Aug. 6 after being put on the 10-day injured list. The timing of his injury was terrible, as Siani was looking much better at the plate since the All-Star break. Overall, the former fourth-rounder of the Cincinnati Reds in 2018 has hit .256 (60-for-234) and has mainly been fantasy relevant in NL-only leagues due to his speed (14 steals).

Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman (back) was scratched from Friday's lineup at Camden Yards against the division-rival Boston Red Sox due to lower-back discomfort, the team announced. With Rutschman a little beat up, catcher James McCann made the start behind the plate and is hitting in the nine-hole against Red Sox left-hander Brennan Bernardino. For now, fantasy managers will want to consider Rutschman as day-to-day and check back on Saturday to see if he's back in action. Losing the 26-year-old switch-hitting, All-Star catcher for any length of time would be a big blow to the Orioles and fantasy managers alike. Rutschman has continued to swing a hot bat in August, going 12-for-40 (.300) with three doubles, a triple and eight RBI in 12 games played. Check back later for a potential update on the severity of his back injury.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto (triceps) threw 17 pitches to live hitters during a batting practice session on Friday in his first time facing live hitters since going on the injured list back in June. Manager Dave Roberts said they cut the session short due to the heat. Yamamoto said he continues to feel good, but he'll need at least two more live sessions before going on a minor-league rehab assignment. The 25-year-old isn't going to rejoin LA's starting lineup until September most likely, but that doesn't mean fantasy managers should send him to the waiver wire. In his first 14 big-league starts in 2024 before injuring his right triceps, Yamamoto went 6-2 for the Dodgers with a strong 2.92 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and impressive 27.9% strikeout rate and 5.7% walk rate in 74 frames.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Bobby Miller is expected to rejoin the big league roster on Saturday, according to manager Dave Roberts. The 26-year-old was optioned to the minors about a month ago to work on his mechanics but he was also dealing with a groin issue. The plan is for Tyler Glasnow to take the mound for Saturday's game. Roberts said that Miller could pitch out of the bullpen. He continued by saying anything is on the table for how Miller could be used. Miller was already barely an option in fantasy leagues, but a move to the pen would basically give him no value.

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Ryne Nelson will get the starting nod against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday. Manager Torey Lovullo said earlier in the week that Nelson would be available out of the bullpen. The D-Backs didn't use him out of the pen which made him available to pitch in this game. Nelson allowed two earned runs while striking out nine batters over 7 1/3 innings of work during his latest start. He'll be a decent streaming option on Friday, but Nelson is likely headed to the bullpen after this start. Lovullo said the team plans to go down to a five-man rotation which probably means Nelson is the odd man out.
From RotoBaller
Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Drury has been awful with the bat since the All-Star break. He's hitting .127 with four RBI since the break, so it's not shocking to see him sitting for a second straight game. As a result, Michael Stefanic will cover second base and bat ninth versus right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach. He's hitless over his last three games, but Stefanic is sporting a .281 batting average with five RBI in 20 games with the Halos this season. He won't be a great streaming option for Friday's slate.
