Finnegan (2-0) allowed no hits and one walk while striking out one in a scoreless seventh inning to earn the win against the Yankees on Friday.

Finnegan tossed an immaculate inning Wednesday, and he was brought on during a 3-3 matchup Friday. He was able to pick up his second win of the season after the Nationals scored six runs in the top of the eighth inning. Finnegan has posted a 3.29 ERA and 18:6 K:BB in 13.2 innings this year, but his fantasy value is limited by his low-leverage role.

Suter exited Friday's game against the Marlins due to right calf cramps, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

Suter left Friday's spot start with a trainer after just 2.1 innings, but his calf issue likely won't force him to miss significant time. The left-hander will likely be available out of the bullpen in the near future.

Suter was removed from Friday's game against the Marlins in the third inning with an apparent injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Suter was making his first start of the season Friday and allowed one run on four hits and a walk while striking out two in 2.1 innings to begin the game. However, he issued a walk and allowed a single in the bottom of the third inning and left the game with a trainer. The nature and severity of his injury aren't yet known.

Garcia (groin) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Garcia had been sidelined since April 24 due to a left groin strain, but he'll now return to the bullpen. He posted an 8.53 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 6.1 innings to begin the season.

Suero (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment Sunday with Triple-A Rochester, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Suero has been out with a strained oblique since mid-April. He threw 22 pitches in a simulated game Thursday, so he shouldn't be too far from returning to the active roster if he gets through a rehab appearance without issues.

Hernandez (biceps) will throw 20 pitches of live batting practice Saturday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Hernandez left his first start of the year with biceps inflammation but has been making steady progress towards a return to the mound. He threw a 30-pitch bullpen session Tuesday and is now ready to face hitters. His pitch count still isn't anywhere close to a starter's workload, however, so he has some work left to do before returning to game action.

Edwards' contract was selected by Atlanta on Friday.

Edwards was a very good reliever in the not-too-distant past, posting a 3.06 ERA from 2015 through 2018. He stumbled to an 8.47 mark in 2019, however, and threw just 4.2 innings last year before suffering a forearm injury. If Edwards is somehow fully back in vintage form, he could throw high-leverage innings at some point this season, but that shouldn't be close to the default expectation given the way his recent seasons have gone.

Adam was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Friday, Maddie Lee of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

The 30-year-old was optioned to the alternate site last week but will rejoin the Cubs ahead of Friday's series opener versus the Pirates. Adam has surrendered seven runs on seven hits with a 10:6 K:BB across 6.2 innings out of the bullpen this season.

Bass gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless eighth inning to record his first hold of the season in Thursday's win over the Diamondbacks.

It wasn't pretty, as Bass threw only eight of 15 pitches for strikes, but he was able to get the job done. The veteran righty has a 1.08 ERA over 8.1 innings since spitting the bit on the closer role, but his 5:3 K:BB over that stretch suggests he's still not a great fit for high-leverage work.

Floro (2-1) worked a perfect seventh inning Thursday to pick up the win over the Diamondbacks.

He tossed an efficient 11 pitches (eight strikes) before handing the ball off to Anthony Bass for the eighth inning. Floro has only been scored upon once in 16 appearances to begin the season, leading to a 1.23 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 15:4 K:BB through 14.2 innings, and the right-hander has four holds in addition to his wins.
