  • Joe Ryan SP | MIN

    Twins' Joe Ryan: Strikes out nine in loss

    Ryan (13-10) took the loss against the Phillies on Friday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk with nine strikeouts over five innings.

    Ryan threw 59 of 90 pitches for strikes and generated 14 whiffs, but he was outdueled by Aaron Nola. The 29-year-old was uneven down the stretch, giving up five or more runs in four of his final seven outings while holding opponents to two earned runs or fewer in the other three. He'll still close the campaign with a career-best 3.47 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 194:39 K:BB across 171 innings.

  • Jake Meyers CF | HOU

    Astros' Jake Meyers: Scratched Friday

    Meyers was scratched from the lineup ahead of Friday's game versus the Angels due to right calf soreness, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Meyers missed nearly two months earlier in the season due to right calf problems, and he appears to have aggravated the injury prior to Friday's contest. While he takes a day to recover, Zach Cole will shift to center field, and Cam Smith will start in right for the Astros.

  • Dylan Beavers LF | BAL

    Orioles' Dylan Beavers: Exits with shin injury

    Beavers was removed from Friday's game against the Yankees with right shin discomfort, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Beavers fouled a ball off his lower leg during his at-bat in the fourth inning and was replaced on defense once the O's took the field in the bottom of the frame. The severity of the outfielder's injury isn't immediately clear, but with just two games remaining in the regular season, it's possible the team could keep Beavers on the bench to close out the year as a precaution.

  • Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Starting Friday after all

    Canzone is starting in right field and batting seventh against the Dodgers on Friday.

    Canzone will enter the Mariners' starting nine after Victor Robles (undisclosed) was scratched from the lineup. Canzone has gone 7-for-19 (.368) with one home run, three RBI and four runs scored over his last six games.

  • Victor Robles RF | SEA

    Mariners' Victor Robles: Scratched from Friday's lineup

    Robles (undisclosed) was scratched from the Mariners' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.

    The reason for Robles' removal from the lineup has yet to be announced, but Dominic Canzone will start in right field and bat seventh. Robles entered Friday's game having gone 11-for-49 (.224) with two steals, eight runs, one homer and four RBI in the 18 games since returning from his seven-game suspension Sept. 6.

  • Luis Curvelo RP | TEX

    Rangers' Luis Curvelo: Back in majors

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

    Curvelo was demoted to Triple-A earlier this month after giving up three runs (two earned) to the Mets without recording an out, but he'll return to the Rangers now that the big club will have to finish the season without Chris Martin (undisclosed) and Cole Winn (undisclosed). Curvelo owns a 5.50 ERA and 1.39 WHIP through 18 MLB innings this year and will likely be limited to middle relief.

  • Jose Corniell RP | TEX

    Rangers' Jose Corniell: Recalled to majors

    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.

  • Nathan Eovaldi SP | TEX

    Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi: Moved to 60-day IL

    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.

  • Donovan Solano 1B | TEX

    Rangers' Donovan Solano: Joining big-league club

    The Rangers selected Solano's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

    Solano inked a minor-league contract with Texas on Sept. 9 after being released by Seattle on Sept. 1. The veteran infielder will provide the Rangers with additional depth after Josh Smith was placed on the paternity list. Nathan Eovaldi was transferred to the 60-day injured list to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for Solano.

  • Cole Winn RP | TEX

    Rangers' Cole Winn: Lands on IL

    The Rangers placed Winn on the 15-day injured list Friday with an undisclosed injury.

    Winn will be joined on the injured list by Chris Martin (undisclosed), putting an early end to both pitchers' seasons. Winn was extremely effective for the big club this year, turning in a 1.51 ERA and 0.96 WHIP over 41.2 innings. Jose Corniell and Luis Curvelo were recalled from Triple-A Round Rock in corresponding moves.
