Boyd (13-8) earned the win Friday, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over five innings against the Rays. He struck out one.

Boyd delivered his shortest start since Aug. 8 and surrendered at least four runs for the fourth time in his last five outings, but he was still able to build on his career-high win total. The left-hander had a 2.46 ERA through his first 24 starts of the year, but the recent stumble has seen that mark increase to 3.05. Still, it's been a career year for Boyd, whose previous career best in a season of more than 15 starts was a 4.39 ERA.

Yamamoto allowed one run on one hit and one walk while striking out 10 over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Giants on Friday.

There was no late drama in this one, as Yamamoto gave up both baserunners and the lone run on his line in the first inning in his first start since losing a no-hitter after 8.2 innings versus the Orioles last Saturday. Yamamoto retired 20 straight batters to end his start, which was his third straight effort of at least seven innings of one-run ball, and he's tallied 10 strikeouts in each of those games. The right-hander was dominant early in the year and has returned to that form down the stretch with some of his best outings of 2025, including five straight quality starts since his start in Colorado on Aug. 18. Yamamoto is at a 2.66 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 187:51 K:BB through 162.1 innings over 28 starts this season. He's lined up for a rematch versus the Giants at Chavez Ravine next week.

Verlander allowed one run on four hits and four walks while striking out four over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Friday.

Verlander was good, throwing 67 of 105 pitches for strikes, but Yoshinobu Yamamoto was even sharper as the two pitchers dueled for seven frames. Over his last six starts, Verlander has allowed just 10 runs (nine earned) in 35.1 innings while posting a 37:11 K:BB. The one run on his line Friday was a solo home run by Michael Conforto, which was the first long ball Verlander has given up during his recent stretch of strong pitching. The 42-year-old right-hander is now at a 3.94 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 124:47 K:BB through 134.2 innings across 26 starts this season. His next start is projected to be at Arizona.

Singer (13-10) allowed two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out four over six innings to take the loss Friday versus the Athletics.

Singer gave up a leadoff homer in the bottom of the first to Lawrence Butler and also surrendered the first of Carlos Cortes' two solo shots in the game. While this was a sixth straight quality start for Singer, it was the first time he'd allowed a long ball in that span. He's given up eight runs over his last 36 innings while posting a 36:9 K:BB. For the season, the right-hander has a 3.94 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 149:57 K:BB across 155.1 innings over 29 starts. Singer is projected for a road start in St. Louis next week.

Pfaadt didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Twins, allowing five runs on nine hits and one walk in 4.2 innings. He struck out two.

Pfaadt has mostly struggled lately, having now tossed fewer than five innings while surrendering at least four runs in three of his last four outings. Friday was also notably the right-hander's ninth start of the season in which he was tagged for at least eight knocks, and he's now given up more hits (187) than any other pitcher in 2025. Pfaadt will take a rough 5.31 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 131:34 K:BB across 157.2 innings into a scheduled appearance against the division-rival Giants.

Pallante (6-14) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, allowing five runs (four earned) on four hits and four walks in five innings. He failed to record a strikeout.

The walks came back to haunt Pallante, who issued at least three of them for the fourth time in his last six starts. Although he's thrown at least five innings in six consecutive outings, the right-hander has permitted at least four runs in four of them. Pallante has a lackluster 5.34 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 104:57 K:BB across 155 innings in 2025, and he's lined up to face the division-rival Reds next week.

Priester (13-2) picked up the win Friday against the Cardinals, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk in 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

Priester is now on a five-start streak of yielding two runs or fewer. Additionally, he's given up two runs or fewer in 10 of his last 11 outings. The right-hander has found a home in Milwaukee this year, working to a strong 3.25 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 118:47 K:BB over 146.2 innings. He's next scheduled to face the Angels, who have a poor .651 OPS against right-handed pitching since the beginning of August.

Sears (8-11) took the loss Friday against the Rockies, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk in 4.1 innings. He struck out eight.

Sears registered 13 whiffs en route to fanning at least eight for the second time this season, but it was a weak showing besides the swing-and-miss stuff. The southpaw has now been taken deep in eight consecutive major-league appearances, which puts him up to 29 homers allowed in 26 outings this year. Friday was likely just a spot start for Sears, who holds a shaky 5.12 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 113:33 K:BB over 130 frames across time with the Athletics and Padres in 2025.

Gordon (6-6) recorded the win Friday against the Padres, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out nine.

The 27-year-old left-hander tied a season high in strikeouts, tossing at least six frames for the seventh time out of 13 outings this year as well. Since seeing his ERA balloon to 8.37 following a disastrous Aug. 10 start in Arizona, when he was obliterated for 10 earned runs, Gordon has managed to throw six innings while yielding two runs or fewer in four of his last six appearances to enhance his ERA to 6.14 for the season. He'll carry a 1.50WHIP and 55:16 K:BB over 66 frames into a scheduled start versus Miami his next time out.

The Rockies will recall Blalock from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Saturday's game against the Padres in San Diego, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Blalock owns an unsightly 8.62 ERA and 1.79 WHIP through 47 innings with the Rockies this season and hasn't been much better in Triple-A, accumulating a 9.37 ERA in 16.1 frames since being optioned to Albuquerque in mid-August. Despite his poor numbers, he'll come up from the minors to fill the opening in Colorado's rotation left by Chase Dollander's (knee) impending move to the injured list. Blalock will be welcomed back to the big leagues by a Padres squad who torched him for 12 runs in just 3.2 innings back on May 10.
