Martin was charged with a blown save Friday against Houston, allowing two runs on three hits and no walks in the eighth inning. He struck out one.

Martin took his third blown save of the season, and he served up his first homer since June 24 in Baltimore. The veteran right-hander should remain a setup man for the Rangers in the final weeks of the season, though he hasn't fared particularly well on the mound as of late. Over his last 12.1 innings, Martin has a 5.11 ERA and 1.78 WHIP covering 15 appearances.

Burger went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run Friday in a 4-3 extra-innings win over the Astros.

The homer was Burger's 13th of the year to extend his hitting streak to five games. The infielder had a .658 OPS as of June 20, though he's performed far better at the plate since then as he tries to salvage a disappointing season. Since the start of July, Burger is batting .324 with six extra-base hits, 15 RBI and 11 runs scored over his last 71 plate appearances to increase his OPS to .703 for the campaign.

Garcia went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday in a 2-1 win against the Twins.

Garcia smacked homer No. 16 on the year, and he registered his first hits of the month of September. While the speedy infielder had been more of a steals specialist for fantasy managers in past seasons, he's bloomed into a five-category contributor in 2025. Through 577 plate appearances, Garcia is slashing .294/.357/.472 with 55 extra-base hits, 66 RBI, 66 runs scored and 22 stolen bases.

Estevez picked up the save Friday against the Twins, allowing no hits and one walk with no strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.

Estevez increased his MLB lead in saves with his 38th of the season, also turning in his ninth consecutive scoreless outing. The 32-year-old right-hander has been outstanding all year for the Royals, producing a 2.49 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 52:21 K:BB over 61.1 innings. Estevez has a strong grip on the closer role as the campaign nears an end.

Flaherty did not factor into the decision in Friday's 7-5 loss to the White Sox, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks with two strikeouts over 4.1 innings.

Flaherty threw just 49 of 83 pitches for strikes and allowed runs in four separate innings. It continued an up-and-down second half for the 29-year-old, who has surrendered four or more earned runs in four of his past nine outings while holding opponents to one run or fewer in another four. He'll carry a 4.85 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 171:54 K:BB across 146.2 innings into a road matchup with the Yankees next week.

Smith (5-7) earned the win against the Tigers on Friday, allowing four runs on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings.

Smith threw just 53 of 91 pitches for strikes but generated an impressive 15 whiffs and received strong support from the White Sox offense. Though he fell short of a third consecutive quality start, the 25-year-old has now completed at least five innings in six straight outings. He'll carry a 3.95 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 118:52 K:BB across 125.1 innings into a home matchup with the Rays next week.

Leasure earned the save in Friday's 7-5 win over the Tigers, striking out two while retiring all five batters he faced.

Leasure was summoned with two runners on in the eighth inning and was perfect in delivering a five-out save. The 27-year-old has been strong since the All-Star break, converting all five of his save chances with a 3.05 ERA and 30:6 K:BB over 21 appearances. For the year, he's tallied seven saves and 11 holds while posting a 3.95 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 70:27 K:BB across 54.2 innings.

Lopez (5-4) took the loss Friday against the Royals, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.

Lopez was sharp in his first major-league start since June 3, working six strong innings in his return from the injured list. The right-hander has now tossed at least five frames in all but one of his 12 outings in 2025, and he's given up greater than two runs on just two occasions all year. Lopez threw 92 pitches Friday, so he shouldn't have any workload restrictions in his next scheduled appearance against the Diamondbacks. For the campaign, he has a 2.85 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 65:15 K:BB.

Wacha (9-11) notched the win Friday against the Twins, allowing one run on four hits and two walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

After failing to throw at least five innings for just the third time all season his last time out, Wacha returned to form Friday to toss 5.2 strong frames. The five strikeouts were his most since his Aug. 1 start in Toronto, and the four hits allowed were his fewest also since that same outing against the Blue Jays. The veteran right-hander has a quality 3.45 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 117:41 K:BB over 28 appearances, and he's next set to take the ball for a pivotal matchup against the division-rival Guardians.

Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a home run, four RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 7-5 win over the Tigers.

Montgomery was a consistent contributor Friday, driving in runs in the first and fifth innings before capping his night with a two-run homer in the seventh. The 23-year-old has gone deep eight times in his past 12 games, piling up 18 RBI during that stretch. Through just 204 major-league plate appearances, he's slashing .232/.296/.562 with 18 home runs, 46 RBI and 34 runs scored.
