Ryan Gusto SP | MIA
Marlins' Ryan Gusto: Takes loss as Friday's opener
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.

Tanner Gordon RP | COL
Rockies' Tanner Gordon: Placed on IL
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.

Jeremiah Estrada RP | SD
Padres' Jeremiah Estrada: Placed on injured list
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.

Brian Fitzpatrick RP | MIL
Brewers' Brian Fitzpatrick: Back in majors
The Brewers recalled Fitzpatrick from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.
Fitzpatrick has turned in a 1.13 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through 16 innings at Nashville, and he's also performed well when called upon by the Brewers, allowing just one earned run in 5.2 frames. He'll now rejoin the big-league bullpen alongside Craig Yoho to replace DL Hall (pectoral) and Jake Woodford.

Craig Yoho RP | MIL
Brewers' Craig Yoho: Recalled from Nashville
The Brewers recalled Yoho from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.
With DL Hall (pectoral) landing on the injured list and Jake Woodford departing the 40-man roster Friday, Yoho will return to the majors to help plug the holes in Milwaukee's bullpen. The 26-year-old has dominated Triple-A hitters since first reaching Nashville in 2024, posting a 1.14 ERA and 0.96 WHIP and a 100:33 K:BB across 79 combined innings. However, he gave up seven earned runs over 8.2 frames with the big club last season.

Jake Woodford RP | MIL
Brewers' Jake Woodford: Designated for assignment
The Brewers designated Woodford for assignment Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Woodford helped save the bullpen by logging three innings in Thursday's loss to the Giants, but he gave up four runs in the outing and holds a 6.94 ERA on the season. The righty is likely to clear waivers, and he would have the ability to decline an outright assignment.

DL Hall RP | MIL
Brewers' DL Hall: Out with pec strain
The Brewers placed Hall on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left pec strain, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Hall had to leave an appearance Thursday against the Giants due to the injury, and an MRI revealed a strain. The 27-year-old lefty is expected to miss roughly 4-to-6 weeks, per Hogg, which lines him up to return right around the All-Star break.

Taylor Rashi RP | MIN
Diamondbacks' Taylor Rashi: Scrubbed from 40-man roster
The Diamondbacks designated Rashi for assignment Friday.
The club needed to clear space on its 40-man roster for the addition of LuJames Groover. Rashi gave up three runs over 3.2 innings earlier this season with the Diamondbacks but has spent most of the year at Triple-A Reno, turning in a 1.03 ERA and 26:12 K:BB across 26.1 frames. He could draw some interest via waivers.

Matt Svanson RP | STL
Cardinals' Matt Svanson: Getting another look in majors
The Cardinals recalled Svanson from Triple-A Memphis on Friday.
Svanson was sent down last month after posting a disappointing 8.77 ERA and 26:15 K:BB over 25.2 innings. He seemed to get back on track at Memphis, tossing 5.2 scoreless frames with an 8:1 K:BB. Svanson will likely be used in middle relief.
