May 23 - 12:19 PM

Mariners optioned C Jesus Montero to Triple-A Tacoma.

Montero has been a major disappointment this season, batting just .208/.264/.327 with three home runs and nine RBI in 29 games. According to the Tacoma News Tribune, Montero will primarily be used at first base and DH in the minors. The Mariners have promoted Jesus Sucre to replace him on the active roster.

Royals prospect Yordano Ventura allowed seven runs (six earned runs) on nine hits over 4 1/3 innings in his start Wednesday with Double-A Northwest Arkansas.

Ventura hadn't allowed more than two earned runs in any of his previous eight starts, so it's the first time he's struggled this season. The 21-year-old top prospect has a 2.82 ERA with a 1.12 WHIP and 12.1 K/9 over 45 innings at the Double-A level. Prior to Wednesday's outing, he had a a pair of 10-strikeout games and 32 total strikeouts in his last four starts.

Orioles prospect outfielder Henry Urrutia is batting .333/.413/.542 with three home runs and 19 RBI in 25 games with Double-A Bowie.

Urrutia, 26, defected from Cuba last season but visa issues delayed him from making his debut until a month ago. Given his advanced age and track record, he likely isn't far off from a promotion to Triple-A Norfolk.

Orioles prospect Brandon Kline (ankle) has been placed on the disabled list with Low-A Delmarva.

Kline underwent surgery Thursday to repair a non-displaced ankle fracture and will be sidelined 6-8 weeks. A second-round pick in 2012, Kline had a 5.86 ERA in seven starts at the Orioles' Low-A affiliate.

Padres optioned RHP Burch Smith to Triple-A Tucson.

Smith was sent down after he lasted just one-plus inning in a loss Wednesday to the Cardinals. The 23-year-old struggled with an 18.41 ERA in his first three major league starts. Smith opened the season with Double-A San Antonio, but the Padres are hoping he can turn things around the Triple-A level.
May 23 - 11:15 AM

Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune reports that Jesus Montero will be demoted to the Triple-A level.

It had to be done. Montero has been a major disappointment this season for Seattle, batting .208/.264/.327 with three home runs and nine RBI in 29 games. He also had an ugly set of stats in 2012 and could be kept down on the farm for a while. Divish writes that the M's "may have finally taken a step back from the idea that Montero will be a catcher at the big league level" and will play him primarily at first base and DH in Triple-A. Jesus Sucre will be promoted to fill the roster vacancy.

Matt Dominguez (quad) is expected to return to the Astros' starting lineup on Friday evening.

Dominguez sat out Wednesday and will also use Thursday's scheduled team off day to rest his tight left quad. "I’m starting to figure certain things out at the plate, and I like to play," said the third baseman, "but it’s better to take the two days off now than risking weeks when it’s something that can be treated pretty easily."
