Jose Ramirez - 3B - Indians

Jose Ramirez went 3-for-4 and clubbed a solo home run in Saturday's shutout win over the Orioles.

The bomb came off Orioles batting tee Chris Tillman in the sixth inning. Ramirez dug himself a deep hole in the first few weeks of the season and is still trying to climb out of it. He's turned things around of late and has his line up to .221/.338/.441 with five homers and nine RBI after nearly a month of action.

Manny Machado - SS - Orioles

Manny Machado went 1-for-3 and worked a walk in Saturday's loss to the Indians.

The Orioles were completely shut down by Indians starter Mike Clevinger. Machado's single represented half of his team's hits for the afternoon. He is the only player in the O's lineup having a respectable season at this point. The impending free agent shortstop is slashing an excellent .337/.421/.639 with six homers and 15 RBI in 95 plate appearances.
Apr 21 - 7:00 PM
Trey Mancini - OF - Orioles

An MRI on Trey Mancini's knee Saturday came back clean, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said.

He'll miss a few games but the 26-year-old isn't expected to need a disabled list stint for the sore knee. Craig Gentry started in left field and batted leadoff Saturday, and will likely get the bulk of playing time in Mancini's absence.

Chris Tillman - S - Orioles

Chris Tillman let in four runs in six innings and took a loss to the Indians on Saturday.

He got burned for three home runs -- all solo shots -- by Yan Gomes, Jose Ramirez and Yonder Alonso. He struck out five, walked one and yielded eight total hits. The fact that this was Tillman's best start of the season tells you all you need to know. His record falls to 0-4 with a 9.87 ERA and 2.37 WHIP. He has just eight strikeouts and 11 walks in 17 1/3 innings after four starts. One would think it could only get better from here but then we remember that he finished last year with a 7.84 ERA in 19 starts and five relief appearances.

Xander Bogaerts - SS - Red Sox

Xander Bogaerts (ankle) will embark on a two-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Pawtucket on Tuesday.

If Tuesday and Wednesday's games go well, Bogaerts could be activated after Thursday's off day. He's been sidelined since April 9 with a small fracture in his left ankle, but the recovery has gone smoothly to this point. Brock Holt and Tzu-Wei Lin have filled in at shortstop in his absence.

Jose Leclerc - R - Rangers

Ranger recalled RHP Jose Leclerc from Triple-A Round Rock.

Outfielder Ryan Rua was sent out in a corresponding move. Leclerc broke camp with the club but was optioned shortly after, despite tossing three scoreless innings of relief to open the year. Like that one, his stay this time might also be short with reliever Tony Barnette a few days away from a possible activation.

Ryan Rua - OF - Rangers

Rangers optioned OF Ryan Rua to Triple-A Round Rock.

Rua's stay with the club lasted four days, after he was called up following reliever Tony Barnette's injury. With the club needing another reliever, Jose Leclerc will replace Rua on the roster. He'll likely be a frequent flyer in Arlington this season.
Apr 21 - 6:43 PM
Gleyber Torres - SS - Yankees

A source tells Jack Curry of the YES Network that Yankees top prospect Gleyber Torres will be promoted before Sunday's game.

Torres performed well in camp and hasn't stopped hitting since the regular season began, slashing .370/.415/.543 in 13 games at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. With the arbitration threshold cleared, the Yanks have decided his time is now in New York. Torres will likely log most of his time at second base, though he could also play third and spell Didi Gregorius at short.
