Carlos Villanueva - S - Cubs

Carlos Villanueva was hit hard again Sunday, giving up five runs on nine hits over 4 2/3 innings in a loss to the Reds.

Villanueva did punch out seven in the outing, but it's a shallow silver lining for an otherwise ugly showing. It leaves the right-hander with a 10.93 ERA and 2.14 WHIP for the year. With Jake Arrieta nearing a return -- possibly as soon as this weekend -- Villanueva's time in the rotation is short.

Homer Bailey - S - Reds

Homer Bailey struck out eight batters over six scoreless innings in Sunday's win over the Cubs.

It was a much-needed outing for Bailey, who had allowed 13 runs over his first 14 1/3 innings to start the year. Bailey gave up six hits and three walks in the start. He'll look to carry over his strong showing when he faces the Braves in Atlanta on Friday.
Apr 20 - 7:03 PM
Carlos Beltran - OF - Yankees

Carlos Beltran went 2-for-6 with two RBI in the Yankees' 5-1, 12-inning victory over the Rays on Sunday.

Dean Anna plated the winning run with a bases-loaded walk, but Beltran put the cherry on top with a two-run single immediately after. The single gives him 11 RBI on the season, and Beltran's .561 slugging percentage is sixth in the American League.
Apr 20 - 7:01 PM
Yoenis Cespedes - OF - Athletics

Yoenis Cespedes was removed from Sunday's game against the Astros with a bruised right heel.

No word yet on the full extent of the injury or how much time, if any, he may miss. Craig Gentry replaced him in left field on Sunday.

Eduardo Nunez - 3B - Twins

Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said Sunday that Eduardo Nunez is nursing a minor oblique strain, but is expected to be promoted to the big league club soon.

Gardenhire noted the team's desire to become more athletic overall, and his versatility would go a long way toward accomplishing that goal. Unless he's receiving consistent at-bats though, his value will lie solely in AL-only leagues.

James Loney - 1B - Rays

James Loney went 2-for-4 with a run scored in the Rays' loss to the Yankees on Sunday.

Loney scored the team's lone run in the 12-inning loss. Despite Sunday's setback, Loney enjoyed a good series against the Yankees, registering multi-hit games in each of the three contests with four runs scored and five RBI.
Apr 20 - 6:54 PM
Alfonso Soriano - DH - Yankees

Alfonso Soriano went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Rays.

Soriano provided the bookends for Sunday's win, scoring the first run of the game and driving in the last of the Yankees' five runs with an RBI single in the 12th inning. He's now hit in five straight games, raising his line to .275/.324/.493 with seven RBI for the year.
Apr 20 - 6:51 PM
Juan Carlos Oviedo - R - Rays

Rays activated RHP Juan Carlos Oviedo from the 15-day disabled list.

Oviedo will take the spot of C.J. Riefenhauser on the active roster. The artist formerly known as Leo Nunez will work in middle relief for the Rays, but could work his way into the late-inning mix.
