Julian Tavarez(Brewers):
The Brewers made room on their roster today to activate reliever David Riske from the DL by designating reliever Julian Tavarez for assignment.
Tavarez Designed For Assignment
Jim Edmonds(Cubs):
Cubs outfielder Jim Edmonds is day to day, and step by step because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, caused partly by five games on artificial turf.
Edmonds Day-To-Day With Foot Soreness
Dan Haren(Diamondbacks):
Dan Haren had a little something extra going Wednesday night when he took the Chase Field mound, because he was facing his former team, the Oakland A's.
Haren's Arm, Bat Too Much For Athletics
Troy Percival(Rays):
As Troy Percival recorded the final out on Wednesday night, it marked the Rays' first series win over the Cubs at Tropicana Field in franchise history.
Percival Moves Up Saves List
Coco Crisp(RedSox):
Center fielder Coco Crisp became the latest player to be afflicted by the recent injury bug that has spread throughout the Boston Red Sox.
Crisp Leaves With Left Hand Discomfort
Coco Crisp was taken out of the game in the third with discomfort in his left hand, but Francona expects him to be available tomorrow. The soreness was in soft tissue on the top of the hand in the area below the ring finger.
Crisp Departs, Cubs Still Eying Him
J.D. Drew(RedSox):
Manny Ramirez (right hamstring) and Kevin Youkilis (back) were both out of the lineup with nagging injuries. David Ortiz was still on the disabled list. Coco Crisp was forced to leave Wednesday's game with a left hand ailment.
Drew Stays Hot, Propels Sox Past Phils
Understand, J.D. Drew has never had a month like the one he's having now. But here's the real stunner: David Ortiz and Manny RamÃrez have never had a full month in which they've slugged at the rate Drew is currently slugging. Neither, for that matter, has Nomar Garciaparra nor Mo Vaughn. For some historical perspective, Carl Yastrzemski didn't have a month statistically this good in his Triple Crown year of 1967.
June BoonFor Him
Kip Wells(Rockies):
No one ever wants to have a blood clot removed from their hand. That's certainly true of Rockies right-handed pitcher Kip Wells, who had one removed from his throwing hand on May 6. Oddly, Wells might parlay his misfortune into what he wanted when he signed -- a starting rotation spot.
Wells May Crack Starting Rotation
Sidney Ponson(Yankees):
The Yankees signed veteran right-hander Sidney Ponson to a Minor League contract on Wednesday, moving to add to their organizational starting depth.
