Nathan Eovaldi (illness) likely to pitch Sunday

Brewers’ skipper Pat Murphy told reporters that Turang underwent an MRI exam which didn’t reveal anything serious — though he will get a second opinion to be sure. Murphy also noted that there’s a chance that Turang returns before their weekend series against the Dodgers is through. Whether or not he’ll require a trip to the injured list will likely depend on how he responds to treatment over the next couple of days.

Rodden will fill the roster space that was vacated when Colt Emerson was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma after Thursday’s game. It will be the first trip to the big leagues for the 26-year-old infielder who was a fifth-round selection by the Mariners from the 2023 draft class. Rodden hit .262/.342/.499 with 19 long balls, 65 RBI, eight stolen bases and a 93/43 K/BB ratio in 410 plate appearances at the Triple-A level this season.

The 21-year-old phenom struggled in his first exposure against MLB pitching, slashing a woeful .190/.246/.335 with eight home runs, 23 RBI, three stolen bases and an 83/15 K/BB ratio in his first 241 plate appearances. He should get plenty of time at the Triple-A level to get his confidence back up before getting another chance with the M’s. Brock Rodden is expected to be promoted from Triple-A Tacoma to take Emerson’s spot on the active roster on Friday.

Ortiz smacked a one-out single off of Kevin Gausman in the fourth inning and scored the game’s first run on an RBI double by Dylan Crews. He then broke the game open as he ambushed a first-pitch fastball from Gausman for a 414-foot (105.2-mph EV) three-run shot in the fifth inning. The 24-year-old is taking advantage of his opportunity here, slashing .333/.355/.767 with four homers and eight RBI in his first 31 plate appearances with the Nationals. He could be worth a look in deeper mixed leagues until he shows any signs of cooling down.

Lile capped off a five-run uprising in the fifth inning with a run-scoring single that chased Kevin Gausman from the ballgame. He also singled in the eighth inning and raced around to score on an RBI single by Jorbit Vivas. The 23-year-old outfielder has been swinging a hot bat in recent weeks and is now slashing .249/.298/.418 to go along with 15 homers, 65 RBI and 12 swipes on the season.

Crews opened the scoring in the ballgame with an RBI double off of Kevin Gausman in the fourth inning that plated Abimelec Ortiz. He also singled with two outs in the fifth inning, swiped second base and scored on an RBI single off the bat of Daylen Lile. With his two-hit attack, the 24-year-old outfielder is now hitting .218/.290/.372 with 10 homers, 27 RBI and eight stolen bases in his first 293 plate appearances with the Nationals on the season.

Cavalli also walked two batters in the ballgame. He retired the first 15 batters he faced until Dansby Swanson worked him for a walk to open the sixth inning. Cavalli’s no-hit bid was then spoiled by a two-out single from Michael Busch in the seventh. The 27-year-old right-hander got 14 whiffs on 103 pitches on the afternoon, posting a strong CSW of 34 percent. He’ll carry an impressive 3.36 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and a 151/41 K/BB ratio (136 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s matchup against the Rangers in Arlington.

Busch spoiled Cade Cavalli’s no-hit bid with a two-out single in the seventh inning. That would be the only hit that the Cubs’ offense would get in the brutal offensive performance. For the season, the 28-year-old slugger is hitting .245/.353/.388 with 14 homers and 63 RBI in 544 plate appearances on the season.

On the plus side for fantasy managers, Gausman struck out seven batters in the ballgame while issuing only one base on balls. He kept the Nationals off the board through the first three frames until Dylan Crews smacked an RBI double in the fourth inning. They then piled on with five more runs in the fifth — including a three-run blast by Abimelec Ortiz. Gausman got 12 swings and misses on 93 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 30 percent. He’ll look to improve upon his underwhelming 4.53 ERA and 1.27 WHIP when he squares off against the White Sox on Tuesday.

Wilson connected on a 2-2 cutter from Max Fried in the second inning, clubbing a 396-foot (104.1-mph EV) solo shot that gave the M’s an early 1-0 lead. That would be the extent of the scoring for both teams in the ballgame. Wilson finished the afternoon 1-for-2 plus a walk and is now hitting .204/.297/.357 with four homers and 11 RBI in 111 plate appearances at the MLB level this season.
