Scott allowed a run on one hit over one inning to earn the save in Friday's 6-5 win over the Nationals.

Scott had to face the top of the Nationals' order and gave up a solo home run to CJ Abrams, but he was able to preserve the lead after that. This was the first earned run Scott had given up since June 2 versus the Mets, and it was the first time he's allowed a baserunner since June 9 in San Diego. The left-handed reliever is up to 15 saves this year while adding seven holds and five blown saves. He's maintained a 3.79 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 40:4 K:BB over 35.2 innings as the head of the Dodgers' closing committee.

Borucki was removed from Friday's game against the Rangers with an apparent injury, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Borucki gave up one run and recorded just one out before departing the game with a trainer. It's not immediately clear what is bothering him, but the Pirates should offer some more details once they take a closer look at him.

Henry (elbow) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Henry was placed on Triple-A Reno's 7-day injured list June 12 due to left elbow discomfort, and after seeking multiple opinions, Tommy John surgery was elected as the best path moving forward for the 27-year-old southpaw. Henry will miss the rest of the 2025 season, and given the procedure, he'll likely miss most -- if not all -- of 2026. Henry appeared in two major-league games for the Diamondbacks this season but spent most of the year in Triple-A, where he posted a 2-6 record in 11 starts with an 8.12 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 51:21 K:BB across 54.1 innings.

Suarez was issued a three-game suspension from Major League Baseball on Friday, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

Suarez was ejected from Thursday's game against the Dodgers after hitting Shohei Ohtani with a pitch, and the 34-year-old closer will now receive a three-game ban on top of it. Suarez is appealing the suspension, so he will remain on the Padres' active roster until a verdict is reached.

Santana received a four-game suspension and fine from the league Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

The incident occurred during the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Tigers for "aggressive conduct toward a fan near the bullpen." The suspension was set to start Friday, but Santana has appealed the suspension and will be available out of the bullpen until the process is complete. He has a 1.72 ERA, a 0.83 WHIP, five holds and a 25:5 K:BB across 31.1 innings this season.

The Dodgers optioned Little to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

After throwing two innings in his MLB debut Thursday, Little will return to Triple-A so the Dodgers can add a fresh arm to the bullpen in Will Klein. The 27-year-old owns a 2.20 ERA and a 33:14 K:BB over 32.2 innings with Oklahoma City.

The Dodgers recalled Klein from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

Klein will make his Dodgers debut if he gets into a game, as Los Angeles acquired him via a June 2 trade and immediately optioned him to Triple-A. He's posted a 5.06 ERA and a 12:1 K:BB in six outings with Oklahoma City and will take Jack Little's spot on the active roster.

Diamondbacks Torey Lovullo told reporters Friday that Puk (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Thursday, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

Puk was pulled from his throwing program last week after experiencing left elbow discomfort. He visited Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Thursday, where it was determined that Tommy John surgery is the best option for the 30-year-old southpaw. Puk will miss the rest of the 2025 season, and given the significance of the procedure, he could miss most -- if not all -- of 2026. He'll end the season with a 3.38 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and four saves across eight innings out of the bullpen.

The Mets are planning on having Montas (lat) make a start Tuesday against Atlanta, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

Montas struggled at the end of his rehab assignment, allowing 13 runs in 6.2 innings over his final two starts. His difficulties prompted the Mets to consider deploying him out of the bullpen, but they'll stick with the original plan to slot him into the No. 5 spot in the rotation. Still, Montas shouldn't have a long leash if his struggles persist.

The Mets optioned Hagenman to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

The Mets needed to make a move in order to promote Blade Tidwell ahead of his start Friday against the Phillies. Hagenman made his MLB debut in April but was sent back down after working 3.1 innings of bulk relief. He had the same role in Thursday's 7-1 loss to Atlanta, pitching 2.2 innings out of the bullpen, allowing zero runs on two hits and no walks while striking out one.
