Rea (11-7) earned the win against the Cardinals on Friday, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out seven over 5.2 scoreless innings.

Rea was sharp, pounding the zone with 56 of 77 pitches for strikes and racking up 13 whiffs. The 35-year-old snapped a winless skid dating back to Aug. 20 despite having now limited opponents to three earned runs or fewer in each of his past five outings. He closes the regular season with a career-best 3.95 ERA to go along with a 1.25 WHIP and 127:44 K:BB across 159.1 innings.

The Rangers recalled Corniell from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

Corniell will join the big-league squad for the first time in his career Friday to help replenish the Rangers' bullpen depth following the placement of Chris Martin (undisclosed) and Cole Winn (undisclosed) on the IL. Corniell has split time between Double-A and Triple-A this season, posting a 1.67 ERA and 0.71 WHIP across 32.1 innings between the two levels.

The Rangers transferred Eovaldi to the 60-day injured list Friday.

Eovaldi suffered a season-ending rotator cuff strain in late August, so Friday's move is procedural. It opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for Donovan Solano.

Skubal is slated to start in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Red Sox, but he will only pitch if the Tigers are still playing for a playoff spot, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

"It's pretty clear. If we need Sunday to get into the playoffs, we're going to pitch [Skubal]. If we've clinched the playoff berth, then he won't pitch," Tigers manager A.J. Hinch relayed Friday. The Tigers can clinch a postseason berth as soon as Friday with a win over the Red Sox and an Astros loss to the Angels, per ESPN. Skubal has logged seven quality starts over his last eight outings and has a 2.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 88:17 K:BB over 74.1 innings across 12 starts since the All-Star break.

Gasser is expected to serve as Milwaukee's opening pitcher for Saturday's game against the Reds, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Gasser will be making his second start since being recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Sept. 21, though he's not expected to work deep enough into Saturday's contest to qualify for a win. The left-hander -- who allowed two earned runs on one hit and two walks across three innings last Sunday in St. Louis -- could be in line for a similar workload Saturday before turning the game over to Jacob Misiorowski, who is expected to work in bulk relief.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Misiorowski will operate in a long-relief role out of the bullpen during the team's weekend series against the Reds, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Assuming he isn't needed in Friday's series opener, Misiorowski is expected to pitch multiple innings behind opener Robert Gasser in Saturday's game against Cincinnati. Misiorowski last started Sept. 19 against the Cardinals, taking a loss after yielding two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three batters. The 23-year-old right-hander will likely remain in the bullpen for the postseason, especially if Jose Quintana (calf) is reinstated from the 15-day IL ahead of the NLDS.

Quintana (calf) threw 45 pitches in a simulated game Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Manager Pat Murphy said he thought Quintana threw "fantastic" Friday. The left-hander is tracking toward being available for the start of the NLDS on Oct. 4. Quintana is recovering from a strained left calf and becomes eligible for reinstatement Tuesday.

Holmes will start Saturday's game against the Marlins, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

Holmes has been working in tandem with Sean Manaea throughout September, but both threw one inning of relief Wednesday, meaning Saturday's contest could be more of a total bullpen game. Holmes had pitched between 3.2 and 4.2 innings in his other four appearances in September.

Lodolo (groin) will throw his regularly scheduled bullpen this weekend and will not require any further evaluation, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Lodolo was lifted from Thursday's start against the Pirates with a minor groin injury, but he's a full go for his regularly scheduled bullpen and isn't concerned about the injury. If the Reds reach the postseason, Lodolo would likely be ready to make a start next week.

Atlanta optioned Waldrep to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, Grant McAuley of the Marietta Daily Journal reports.

Waldrep made his final start of the season Tuesday against the Nationals, so Atlanta will replace him on the roster with reliever Hayden Harris. The 23-year-old right-hander should be locked into Atlanta's 2026 rotation after collecting a 2.88 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 55:22 K:BB in 56.1 innings this season.
