Lou Marson (shoulder) admitted Monday that there is no timetable for his return to the Indians' active roster.

Marson has begun throwing but is not yet performing any other baseball activities due to lingering soreness in his shoulder and neck. "It's definitely frustrating," the catcher told MLB.com. "I know what it is and kind of what I have to do. Hopefully, I can get on the field soon."

Colby Lewis (elbow) acknowledged on Monday afternoon that he's unhappy with his fastball velocity.

Lewis was sitting around 85-86 mph in his rehab start Monday at Double-A Frisco and wants to be closer to 89-91 mph by the time he returns to the major leagues. The hope had been that he would be ready to rock during the first week of June, but a more realistic timetable calls for him to be activated near the middle of the month. Lewis is on his way back from major right elbow surgery.

Colby Lewis (elbow) allowed two runs over 2 1/3 innings Monday in a rehab start with Double-A Frisco.

Lewis yielded four hits but he did not walk a batter and struck out three. The right-hander threw 47 pitches -- 33 of which were strikes -- and will probably aim to make it past 60 in his next rehab outing. If everything continues to go smoothly, Lewis should be ready to join the Rangers' starting rotation during the first week of June.

Rays recalled RHP Jake Odorizzi from Triple-A Durham.

The talented 23-year-old right-hander is making his Rays debut on Monday afternoon against the Blue Jays in place of injured left-hander David Price. Odorizzi had a 3.83 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 47/15 K/BB ratio through 44 2/3 innings this season at the Triple-A level. He is worth a try in mixed fantasy leagues for however long he's up.

Jose Molina (hamstring) is available on Monday and is expected to return to the starting lineup Tuesday.

Molina sat out Sunday and is not in Monday's batting order against the Blue Jays due to some left hamstring tightness. It's not a serious concern for the Rays.

Mark Teixeira (wrist) went 1-for-2 with a walk Monday in his first extended spring training game.

Teixeira reported feeling "good" on his personal Twitter feed afterward. The first baseman is currently aiming to be activated from the disabled list by May 31, but the Yankees are at the top of the American League East standings and could decide to play it safe by letting his minor league rehab assignment linger into early June. Teixeira is on his way back from a torn tendon sheath.

Diamondbacks released INF Mark Teahen.

Teahen asked for and was granted his release. The veteran infielder hit .211/.318/.254 with 22 strikeouts in 22 games at Triple-A Reno but should be able to latch on with a new team. The Reds tried to trade for him at the end of April, but Teahen did not pass his physical.
