Perdomo allowed two runs on six hits and three walks while striking out one over 4.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Friday.

Perdomo was greeted by a Mookie Betts solo home run to lead off the bottom of the first inning, but the young southpaw otherwise put together a decent outing. It was a notable improvement after he gave up five runs over 4.2 innings in his previous start. Perdomo has a 3.72 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 12:7 K:BB through 19.1 innings over four games (three starts) in the majors. He's projected for one more start this year at home versus the Twins next week.

Muncy went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-2 win over the Giants.

The veteran slugger grounded out as a pinch hitter for Miguel Rojas in the fifth inning, but he remained in the game at third base. Muncy then sparked the Dodgers' four-homer barrage in the eighth with a solo shot, his 29th long ball of the year. He's batting .253 with an .847 OPS, 74 RBI, 78 runs scored, 24 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 142 contests. While Muncy continues to see time as a strong-side platoon option, he's put together one of the better seasons of his career in that role.

Smith went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 8-2 win over the Giants.

Smith has gone 8-for-29 (.276) over his last 10 contests, adding two homers and three doubles in that span. The catcher had the last of the Dodgers' four homers in the eighth inning Friday. Smith is batting .241 with a .733 OPS, eight long balls, 31 RBI, 31 runs scored, nine doubles and no stolen bases over 67 contests this season.

Tucker went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 8-2 win over the Giants.

Tucker has gone 14-for-32 (.438) with five homers and 11 RBI over his last nine contests. The outfielder has largely struggled this season, but he's rounding into form just in time for the postseason. Tucker is batting .234 with a .728 OPS, 17 homers, 70 RBI, 87 runs scored, 23 doubles, four triples and 11 stolen bases across 146 contests.

Betts went 3-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI and a walk in Friday's 8-2 win over the Giants.

Betts went yard to lead off the bottom of the first inning and added one of four long balls for the Dodgers off Philip Abner in the eighth. This was Betts' second three-hit effort in a row and his eighth multi-hit game over 15 contests in September. He's added six homers this month to put together a strong finish to the regular season. Overall, he's batting .254 with a .766 OPS, 22 homers, 65 RBI, 66 runs scored, 20 doubles and two stolen bases over 115 contests.

Glasnow (5-1) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out 10 over six innings to earn the win over the Giants on Friday.

Glasnow had given up eight runs over 10 innings in his first two starts of September, so this was a positive return to form. The right-hander also set a season high with the 10 strikeouts after racking up nine three times earlier in the campaign. He's at a 3.46 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 87:23 K:BB across 67.2 innings through 12 starts this season. Glasnow's last regular-season outing is projected to be a road rematch versus the Giants, assuming the Dodgers can cobble together enough arms to stay with a six-man rotation over the final week-plus.

Carroll went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Friday's 9-2 loss to the Yankees.

Carroll's two-run blast answered the Yankees' five-run first inning, but the Diamondbacks wouldn't generate any other offense. The outfielder has gone 7-for-28 (.250) over his last seven games, but three of those hits have been homers. For the season, he's batting .240 with an .804 OPS, 22 long balls, 69 RBI, 89 runs scored, 31 doubles, 16 triples and 21 stolen bases across 148 contests.

Rodriguez (15-7) allowed seven runs on five hits and four walks while striking out five over 5.1 innings to take the loss versus the Yankees on Friday.

Rodriguez faced some early resistence as the Yankees rattled off five runs in the first inning. He also surrendered solo home runs to Ben Rice and George Lombard before his exit. With a couple of crooked numbers going up over his last two starts, Rodriguez might be running out of magic after an impressive campaign. He's at a 2.89 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 140:62 K:BB through 183.2 innings over 31 starts this season. The southpaw is projected to make his last start of the regular season in Colorado.

Lombard went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two additional RBI in Friday's 9-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Lombard has gone 6-for-18 (.333) over his last four contests, adding four RBI in that span. The shortstop has yet to stretch a hitting streak beyond four games, which shows he still has some adjusting to do in the majors. He's batting .234 with a .663 OPS, four homers, 15 RBI, 19 runs scored, three doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 35 contests.

Rice went 2-for-3 with a home run, a triple, two walks, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 9-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Rice has three homers during his seven-game hitting streak, including Friday's solo shot. The slugger has also shown a little speed at times -- he's up to four triples on the year after his three-bagger. On the year, Rice is batting .264 with an .897 OPS, 39 homers, 94 RBI, 100 runs scored, 22 doubles and three stolen bases over 146 contests, building upon his breakout from 2025.
