    Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports that the Rangers are closing in on a major league contract with free agent right-hander Luis Curvelo.
    The 24-year-old has elected free agency after toiling in the minor leagues for the Mariners for the past six seasons. He was brilliant at Double-A Arkansas in 2024 — registering a 2.57 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and a 78/18 K/BB ratio over his 66 2/3 innings of work. Despite the fact that he has yet to play above Double-A ball, Curvelo has been a very popular name on the open market. The Rangers seem to think that he can jump right in and help their bullpen immediately.

    Giants placed RHP Ryan Walker on the paternity list.
    The 29-year-old hurler is expected to be away from the Giants for their weekend series against the Rays as he welcomes a new addition to the family. Keaton Winn was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move to take his place in the Giants’ bullpen.
    Padres put King back on IL, this time for knee
    James Schiano discusses San Diego Padres' Michael King, who has been placed back on the Injured List for knee inflammation, explaining why this is a cause for concern.
  • SF Starting Pitcher #65
    Giants activated RHP Landen Roupp from the 15-day injured list.
    The 26-year-old hurler will make his triumphant return to the Giants’ rotation on Friday evening against the Rays. Before landing on the injured list with inflammation in his pitching elbow, Roupp had posted a 3.11 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and a 95/42 K/BB ratio over his first 101 1/3 innings on the season.
  • SF 3rd Baseman #26
    Giants placed INF Matt Chapman on the 10-day injured list with right hand inflammation.
    It’s the same hand issue that bothered Chapman earlier in the season. He did undergo an MRI exam which seems to have ruled out any structural damage, but he’ll still miss at least a couple of weeks while recovering. Casey Schmitt is starting in his place at third base on Friday night and figures to handle the bulk of the action there while Chapman is shelved.
  • LAA Shortstop #2
    Luis Rengifo is absent from the Angels’ starting lineup for Friday night’s skirmish against the Athletics.
    There doesn’t appear to be anything wrong physically with the versatile 28-year-old, it looks to be just a routine night off. Christian Moore will start in his place at second base and bat eighth against A’s right-hander Jack Perkins.
  • LAD 3rd Baseman #13
    Dodgers placed INF Max Muncy on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain.
    Muncy was diagnosed with a Grade 1 strain and while he’s expected to be out longer than the minimum of 10 days, he is not expected to miss the remainder of the regular season. Buddy Kennedy — who was claimed off of waivers from the Blue Jays — will add infield depth for the Dodgers while Muncy is shelved.
  • COL Shortstop #14
    Ezequiel Tovar is not in the Rockies’ starting lineup for Friday night’s soiree against the Diamondbacks.
    It appears to be just a routine day of rest for the 24-year-old shortstop. Ryan Ritter was activated from the injured list prior to the game and he’ll start at shortstop and bat ninth against Brandon Pfaadt and the Diamondbacks on Friday evening at Coors Field.
  • NYY 1st Baseman #48
    Paul Goldschmidt was held out of the Yankees’ lineup for a second consecutive game on Friday evening due to soreness in his right knee.
    The 37-year-old first baseman banged his knee on the ground after he slipped while trying to catch a foul pop during Wednesday’s game against the Twins. He’s still considered day-to-day. Cody Bellinger will cover first base on Friday night while Jose Caballero will draw a rare start in right field and bat ninth against Andre Pallante and the Cardinals.
  • MIN Right Fielder #19
    Alan Roden (thumb) was scratched from the Twins’ starting lineup for Friday night’s tilt against the Tigers.
    The 25-year-old outfielder aggravated his jammed left thumb when he slid (unsuccessfully) into home plate during the 10th inning of Thursday’s loss to the Tigers. He’s considered day-to-day.
  • HOU Shortstop #3
    Jeremy Peña was held out of the Astros’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Orioles due to illness.
    The 27-year-old shortstop tried to give it a go during warmups but wasn’t feeling up to it, so he’s being looked at by the Astros’ team doctors to determine exactly what’s going on there. Mauricio Dubon will start in his place and bat eighth for the Astros against Brandon Young and the O’s. Peña should be considered day-to-day.
  • SEA 1st Baseman #12
    Josh Naylor is not in the Mariners’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Mets.
    It appears to be just a routine night off with left-hander Sean Manaea toeing the slab for the Mets. Naylor has been terrific in his first 18 games with the M’s, slashing .292/.352/.523 with four homers, 10 RBI and a whopping 11 stolen bases in 72 plate appearances. Donovan Solano will start at first base and bat seventh for the M’s on Friday evening in New York.
