8/7 2:01 PM Max Scherzer (P-TOR) Scherzer vs. Kershaw: A rare showdown between 3,000-strikeout pitchers. Max Scherzer and Clayton Kershaw are set to square off in a rare matchup on Friday. Both are members of baseball's 3,000-strikeout club and likely Hall of Famers. The 41-year-old Scherzer and 37-year-old Kershaw have each won World Series titles and are three-time Cy Young Award winners. The game at Dodger Stadium features division leaders, with the Blue Jays leading the AL East and the Dodgers holding a slim lead in the NL West. Scherzer emphasizes the importance of focusing on the game rather than the matchup, saying, “You want a shot at the champs.”

8/7 12:45 PM Jose Altuve (2B-HOU) How bad do the Astros need Yordan Alvarez back?. The Houston Astros, despite still leading the American League West at this point in the year, have got through what some would consider a hellacious 2025 season. After a massive deal given to future Hall of Fame second baseman Jose Altuve over the offseason led to Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker each finding new teams, the Astros knew they would need to fill the holes, and that it would be a tough season. Injuries have plagued the team like no one has ever seen before, and one of those still on that injured list three months after the original injury is the team's power-hitting designated hitter Yordan Alvarez, who has been dealing with a right-hand injury that was originally a strain, only to have the situation gradually become worse over time.
