Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Stewart will undergo season-ending surgery on his right shoulder, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Stewart has been attempting to work his way back from shoulder inflammation since mid-August, but he'll now opt to go under the knife to address the issue and miss the postseason. It's currently unclear whether the 33-year-old reliever will be able to pitch by the start of spring training next year, but a recovery timeline may emerge following his procedure.

Baty was removed in the second inning of Friday's game against the Marlins due to a side injury, Andrew Tredinnick of The Bergen Record reports.

Baty came up with the injury during his plate appearance in the top of the first inning and appeared to aggravate it on a throw to third base in the bottom of the frame. Ronny Mauricio has entered the game at third base.

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.

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.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Edman is not in Friday's lineup against the Mariners due to ankle soreness, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Edman appeared to tweak his ankle on a diving catch attempt during Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, which prompted him to sit out Thursday's contest. Roberts relayed that Edman's ankle is "a little sore," and with the Dodgers clinching the NL West in Thursday's win over Arizona, Edman will be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game for rest purposes. Edman will be joined by Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy on the bench in Friday's series opener while Miguel Rojas starts at the keystone and bats sixth.

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.

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.

The Rangers placed Martin (undisclosed) on the 15-day injured list Friday.

It's unclear if Martin's move to the IL is related to the right hand injury he suffered Sept. 14, but the Rangers should provide some clarity in the near future. Either way, he'll remain sidelined for the rest of 2025 and finish the season with a 2.98 ERA and 1.20 WHIP across 42.1 innings. With Cole Winn (undisclosed) also moving to the IL, Texas will promote Jose Corniell and Luis Curvelo from Triple-A to fill the open roster spots.

The Rangers placed Smith on the paternity list Friday.

Smith didn't travel with the team for the Rangers' final series of the regular season as he awaits the birth of his child. Friday's move opens up a spot on the active roster for Donovan Solano, who's been recalled from Triple-A Round Rock. Smith can remain on the paternity list through Sunday's regular-season finale.
