Kolek’s season likely done after move to 60-day IL

Caglianone was held out of Kansas City’s lineup for the third consecutive contest on Friday, but was feeling well enough to come off the bench as a pinch-hitter. The power-hitting 23-year-old is back in right field and hitting third for Saturday’s early-afternoon matinee in Detroit. He’s hit .242 (16-for-66) with two homers and seven RBI in 17 games since the start of July.

Thomas rejoins Atlanta’s relief mix for the second time this season after allowing four runs over 3 2/3 innings against the Pirates back on July 7. The 28-year-old was a notable pitching prospect with the Cardinals earlier this decade before injuries derailed his promising trajectory.

Hernández was jettisoned from Atlanta’s bullpen after tossing three scoreless innings in relief against the Orioles on Friday. The 31-year-old journeyman former starter should clear waivers and figures to remain with the organization as emergency depth.

Devers gave the Giants their first lead in the home half of the first inning as he pummeled a 2-1 fastball from Grayson Rodriguez for a 362-foot (101.8-mph) two-run shot. He then strolled to the dish with the bases loaded in the 10th inning and punched a single into left field to send the Giants’ faithful into a frenzy. His overall slash line on the season has continued to tick up, now up to a respectable .244/.315/.476 to go along with 21 homers and 56 RBI in 438 plate appearances.

Schmitt did his damage in the third inning of this one, tattooing a 1-1 fastball from Grayson Rodriguez for a 412-foot (105.9-mph EV) three-run shot that increased the Giants’ lead to 5-1. That would be his only hit in the contest but played a major role in the victory. For the season, the versatile 27-year-old is slashing .272/.303/.489 with a career-high 21 long balls and 54 RBI in 400 plate appearances.

The Giants’ right-hander did an excellent job here, stranding the extra runner and giving the Giants a prime opportunity to walk it off in the home half of the 10th inning. He’s in the midst of a mediocre season overall for the Giants, posting a 4.57 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and a 49/18 K/BB ratio over 41 1/3 innings in his 42 appearances. He has also notched three victories and eight saves on the season and still looks like the best option to see save chances in a nightmarish Giants’ bullpen.

Webb struck out four batters on the evening while allowing a pair of free passes. The Angels scratched out a run against him in the opening inning, then broke through for three more in the fifth including a two-run triple by Tyler Heineman. Still, Webb exited the game with a one-run lead and in line for a victory, but the Giants’ bullpen couldn’t hang on for him. The 29-year-old hurler generated 10 whiffs on 99 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 25 percent. Still 5-7 on the season, he’ll tote a 3.98 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and an 89/29 K/BB ratio (113 innings) into Wednesday afternoon’s skirmish against the Brewers.

Grissom pulled the Halos even at six runs apiece with his 381-foot (103.4-mph EV) two-run shot off of Jason Foley in the eighth inning. That would wind up being the extent of their offense in the extra-inning loss. Grissom also singled in the contest, finishing the night 2-for-5. For the season, the 25-year-old infielder is slashing a respectable .255/.319/.401 with six homers and 40 RBI in 239 plate appearances.

Rodriguez also issued a pair of walks in the ballgame while striking out three. All of the damage that he allowed came via the long ball, with Rafael Devers belting a two-run shot in the opening inning and Casey Schmitt adding a three-run blast in the third. The 26-year-old righty got eight swings and misses on 80 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of just 21 percent. He’ll try to improve upon an increasingly miserable 8.54 ERA and 1.79 WHIP when he takes on the Astros at home on Wednesday.

Armstrong was just backing up home plate when a misstep left him with what looked like a pretty serious strain. He’ll probably go on the IL on Saturday. Will Dion, who was sent down Friday, could come right back to the majors.
