Angels optioned LHP Mitch Farris to Triple-A Salt Lake

Farris allowed 12 runs on 12 hits in six innings this spring while striking out eight and walking two. He did have a solid season in Double-A last year, so he will look to settle in at Triple-A and prove himself worthy of making his MLB debut this season.

Shohei Ohtani

LAD Starting Pitcher #17

Shohei Ohtani hit a solo home run to help the Dodgers to a 4-2 win over the Phillies on Friday.

Ohtani also singled twice. His homer was one of four that the Dodgers hit off Zack Wheeler, and it gave the Dodgers a 3-0 lead while also giving Ohtani his 10th homer of the season. It seems unlikely to be the last. The 31-year-old has homered in back-to-back games, and this one comes a game after he threw six no-hit innings. Huh. Might be something here.

Zack Wheeler

PHI Starting Pitcher #45

Zack Wheeler allowed four runs over six innings to pick up a loss against the Dodgers on Friday.

If you take away solo homers, Wheeler was solid. When you give up four of them, that caveat doesn’t really work. Wheeler couldn’t keep the ball in the park, and while he allowed no other runs and just one more hit before leaving, those roundtrippers made it a disappointing effort for the 36-year-old. Wheeler was due for a shaky start, and still has a 2.27 ERA and 40/9 K/BB in his 43 2/3 innings in 2026. Expect him to bounce back against the struggling Padres’ offense next week.

Justin Wrobleski

LAD Starting Pitcher #70

Justin Wrobleski allowed just a single run on one hit while striking out nine in a win over the Phillies on Friday.

Wrobleski’s only blemish was a solo homer by Kyle Schwarber. The 25-year-old bounced back nicely from his rough outing against the Brewers where he gave up five runs in as many innings, and he pounded the strike zone with zero walks and 63-of-88 pitches landing. Wrobleski is now 7-2 on the season, and he’s earned that mark with a 2.87 ERA over the first two months of the campaign. He’s set to face the Diamondbacks on Thursday

Rafael Devers

SF 1st Baseman #16

Rafael Devers tripled while going 2-for-4 against the Rockies on Friday.

Devers is not exactly known for his dazzling speed, but he was able to hit a run-scoring triple in the ninth and came around to score on a Matt Chapman single. He’s been excellent in the month of May with an .897 OPS coming into Friday’s contest, and it’s a friendly reminder than when Devers has it clicking, there aren’t many hitters better.

Jung Hoo Lee

SF Right Fielder #51

Jun Hoo Lee went 4-for-5 in a loss for the Giants on Friday to the Rockies.

It was Lee’s first game since coming off the injured list due to a back strain, and it was a good one. Three of the hits were singles, while he also added a double for good measure and scored twice. Lee has been relatively effective in 2026 with a .284/.323/.402 slash in his third season of MLB action.

Hunter Goodman

COL Catcher #15

Hunter Goodman hit a game-tying three-run homer against the Giants on Friday.

Goodman’s blast with a pair of runners on was reviewed, but ultimately was deemed a roundtripper the tied the game at 6-6. The 26-year-old also doubled for the ninth time, while the homer was the 13th. Goodman’s .242 average leaves a bit to be desired, but the power production from behind the plate has helped make up for that figure.

Ezequiel Tovar

COL Shortstop #14

Ezequiel Tovar homered twice including a walk-off two-run homer while also stealing a base in an 8-6 win for the Rockies on Friday over the Giants.

Tovar homered in the eighth to get the Rockies to within a run at 4-3. The 24-year-old gave the Rockies the win and also improved his homer total to four with a two-run blast off Caleb Kilian that completed the comeback win for Colorado, as the Rockies entered that inning trailing 6-3. Tovar has struggled for most of the year, but he’s homered three times this week, and he’s shown the ability — in spurts anyway — to be a fantasy factor.
