Chris Dickerson - OF - Indians

Chris Dickerson left Thursday's game versus the Mariners with left knee discomfort.

Dickerson tweaked the knee in the second inning while tracking down a Kendrys Morales double. It's not clear at this point whether it might be more than a day-to-day situation, but the Tribe should update things later Thursday.

Jarred Cosart - S - Marlins

Marlins general manager Mike Hill said Thursday that Jarred Cosart could make his team debut as soon as Friday against the Reds.

It doesn't appear to be set in stone yet, but he would be on five days' rest that day. Jacob Turner is currently slated to start Friday, so he could be moved to the bullpen or to Triple-A.

Ubaldo Jimenez - S - Orioles

Ubaldo Jimenez (ankle) will make another rehab start with Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday or Monday.

Jimenez pitched well in his first rehab outing with Short Season-Aberdeen on Tuesday, but he only went 4 2/3 innings and the Orioles want to build his stamina up a bit more. The veteran right-hander should rejoin the rotation late next week.

Chris Davis - 1B - Orioles

Chris Davis (illness) remained out of the Orioles' lineup Thursday.

It's the third straight start he's missed due to the flu, though Davis will be available off the bench. He seems likely to be back in the lineup on Friday.

Colby Rasmus - OF - Blue Jays

Colby Rasmus was benched Thursday due to tardiness.

Rasmus was apparently consistently late to the park during last weekend's series in New York and showed up well after everyone else on Thursday in Houston. It's not clear at this point if the benching might be a multi-game situation. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons is expected to address the issue shortly.

Cliff Lee - S - Phillies

Cliff Lee left Thursday's start against the Nationals with an apparent elbow injury.

Lee had tossed 2 2/3 scoreless frames but threw a pitch to Denard Span and immediately knew something was wrong. He appeared to gesture towards his elbow after getting to the dugout, so it looks like he aggravated the ailment that sidelined him for two months. The Phillies will provide an update shortly, but obviously this looks like a major setback.

Chris Dickerson - OF - Indians

Chris Dickerson left Thursday's game versus the Mariners with an apparent leg injury.

Dickerson tweaked something in the second inning while tracking down a Kendrys Morales double in the second and was removed in the third. He dealt with a hamstring injury earlier this month, so it's possible he aggravated that ailment. The Tribe will update his status shortly.

Oscar Taveras - OF - Cardinals

Oscar Taveras hit a two-run homer Thursday in the Cardinals' 6-2 victory over the Padres.

It was Taveras's first homer since he went deep in his major league debut, and we don't believe it's a coincidence that it came on the day that Allen Craig was traded. Taveras now knows he'll be in the lineup whenever the Cardinals face a righty, and he could start against some lefties as well. He should have mixed-league value the rest of the way.
