Warren (4-3) earned the win against the Red Sox on Friday, allowing four runs on three hits and four walks with six strikeouts over 5.1 innings.

Warren was given an early lead and looked poised for his first quality start since May 9 before allowing four runs over his final two innings. He struggled with command and control, issuing four walks for the second straight outing while generating just six whiffs on 84 pitches. The 25-year-old now carries a 5.34 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 75:28 K:BB across 57.1 innings and is slated to face the Royals on the road next week.

Buehler (4-4) took the loss against the Yankees on Friday, allowing seven runs (five earned) on seven hits and two walks with two strikeouts over two innings.

Buehler surrendered five runs on two homers in the first inning and needed 67 pitches to get through just two frames, marking his shortest outing of the season. The 30-year-old has now yielded 10 earned runs over his past two starts, pushing his ERA from 3.95 to 5.18. He also owns a 1.44 WHIP and 44:17 K:BB across 48.2 innings and is slated for a home matchup with the Rays next week.

Fairbanks worked a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his 12th save of the season in a 4-3 win over the Marlins.

The right-hander didn't walk or strike out a batter, instead getting two flyballs before Taylor Walls made a leaping grab on a Javier Sanoja line drive for the final out. Fairbanks has been tagged for earned runs in only one of his last 18 appearances dating back to April 23, posting a 1.04 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 14:7 K:BB through 17.1 innings over that stretch while converting nine of 10 save chances.

Judge went 3-for-5 with a double, one RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 9-6 win over the Red Sox.

Judge helped ignite an early Yankees outburst, scoring twice in the first two innings and adding his first steal since May 20. While the slugger hasn't homered through five games in June, he's reached base in seven of his last nine plate appearances and is hitting .397 on the year. He also boasts a 1.254 OPS with 21 home runs, 51 RBI, 59 runs scored and five steals across 279 plate appearances.

Littell (6-5) picked up the win Friday, allowing one run on six hits over six innings in a 4-3 victory over the Marlins. He struck out four without walking a batter.

The only blemish on Littell's line was a fourth-inning solo shot by Agustin Ramirez. The right-hander delivered his third straight quality start and ninth of the season in 13 trips to the mound, and he hit the showers after an efficient 72 pitches (47 strikes), getting a bit of a break after he tossed a 117-pitch complete game his last time out. Littell will take a 3.68 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 52:11 K:BB through 80.2 innings into his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road next week in Boston.

Ober (4-2) took the loss against Toronto on Friday, allowing five runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four across seven innings.

Ober looked to be in control after breezing through the first three frames. However, he gave up two runs in both of the next two frames -- including a two-run home run to Addison Barger in the third -- before serving up a solo shot to George Springer in the sixth. Ober was efficient with his 87 pitches (64 strikes) and generated 13 whiffs and 23 first-pitch strikes, but he wasn't able to get enough run support to avoid the loss. Ober has a 3.78 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 54:15 K:BB across 69 innings this season, and he is slated to start against the Rangers at home next week.

Chisholm went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI and two stolen bases in Friday's 9-6 win over the Red Sox.

Chisholm launched a three-run homer in the first inning and remained a thorn in Boston's side all night, adding two more hits and swiping two bags. The 27-year-old has been on fire since returning from the injured list Tuesday, going 8-for-16 with two home runs, six RBI, three runs scored and three steals. On the season, he's slashing .223/.326/.471 with nine long balls, 23 RBI, 20 runs scored and nine stolen bases across 141 plate appearances.

Williams earned the save in Friday's 9-6 win over the Red Sox, striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.

Williams was called upon to protect a three-run lead in the ninth and worked around a hit-by-pitch to secure his second straight save since reclaiming the closer role. While his season line remains rough at a 6.08 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 30:12 K:BB across 23.2 innings, the 30-year-old has allowed runs in just three of 15 appearances since the start of May. With Luke Weaver (hamstring) sidelined for several weeks, he has a chance to reclaim the ninth-inning job for good.

Bichette went 1-for-4 with a two-run single in Friday's 6-4 win over the Twins.

Bichette struck out in his first two plate appearances, but he got the better of Bailey Ober in the fifth, when his single to center field brought Ernie Clement and Andres Gimenez home. That single extended Bichette's hitting streak to 10 games, and over that span he has gone 13-for-40 (.325) with four home runs and 12 RBI.

Barger went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-4 win over Minnesota.

Barger flirted with a home run after flying out to center field in the first inning, but he was able to leave yard in the fourth on a two-run shot off Bailey Ober. Barger is up to seven home runs on the season, five of which have come over his last seven games, and during that span he has a 1.263 OPS with seven runs scored and 10 RBI.
