Mariners get combined no-no versus Dodgers

Tom Wilhelmsen closed out the Mariners' first no-hitter in 19 years Friday as part of a 1-0 win over the Dodgers.

After Kevin Millwood came out with a groin strain, Charlie Furbush, Stephen Pryor, Lucas Luetge, Brandon League and Wilhelmsen combined to throw three hitless innings, with Wilhemsen notching his third save. It was the Mariners' first no-hitter since Chris Bosio turned in one against Boston in 1993.

Oswalt to join Rockies' rotation on Thursday

Roy Oswalt is officially scheduled to make his Rockies debut Thursday in D.C. against the Nationals.

Oswalt signed a minor league contract with Colorado on May 2 and has registered a stellar 2.16 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 25/7 K/BB ratio across 33 1/3 innings since reporting to Double-A Tulsa. The veteran right-hander is worth a try in most standard mixed fantasy leagues, though keep in mind that he struggled last year with the Rangers.

Mariners activate Justin Smoak (ribs) from DL

Mariners activated 1B Justin Smoak from the 15-day disabled list.

Smoak wound up missing a little under three weeks with a right oblique strain. He did not hit the ball well on his rehab assignment and will return to a .240/.350/.344 batting line. The 26-year-old first baseman remains a poor option in standard mixed fantasy leagues.

Anthony Rizzo getting first game off vs. STL

Anthony Rizzo is not in the Cubs' starting lineup on Tuesday night against the rival Cardinals.

It's the first day off of the season for the young first baseman, who has 10 home runs and 39 RBI in 68 games this season. Cody Ransom will get the nod in his place against Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright.

Matt Harvey strikes out 13 in win over Braves

Matt Harvey took a no-hitter into the seventh before giving up three runs in seven-plus innings Tuesday in a victory over the Braves.

Jason Heyward's infield single ended the no-hit bid; Harvey actually had a play on him, but he didn't think he could make the tag after grabbing the ball towards the first base line and decided to flip to first, which happened to be vacant. Harvey got through that inning scoreless anyway, but the eighth was a different story. He loaded the bases with no outs and then got pulled. After he left, all three runners came around to score. The Braves' official scorer made an egregious call on what should have been ruled an error on David Wright, or he would have only allowed one earned run. It took some of the shine of a dominant effort in which Harvey struck out 13. Still, he did pick up his first win since May 17 and his second since April 19.

Morrow experiences setback with right forearm

Brandon Morrow (forearm) suffered a physical setback Monday in his rehab start at High-A Dunedin.

Morrow will have his forearm reexamined this week. He did not look sharp in the outing, allowing three runs in two innings, and can now be considered out indefinitely.

Betancourt (groin) throws 35-pitch bullpener

Rafael Betancourt (groin) threw a 35-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday and reported feeling fine.

Betancourt will face live hitters on Friday and could then be cleared for a minor league rehab assignment. The veteran right-hander will be back in the Rockies' bullpen by the end of this month if everything continues to go smoothly. Rex Brothers is filling in at closer and doing a fine job.

Youkilis needs back surgery, out 10-12 weeks

Kevin Youkilis has a herniated disc in his back and will undergo surgery to repair it on Thursday.

He is expected to need about 10-12 weeks of rest and rehab, which puts his season in jeopardy. It's another brutal blow to the Yankees, who have been without third baseman Alex Rodriguez (hip) all year. Youkilis was batting .219/.305/.343 with two home runs and eight RBI in 28 games as A-Rod's fill-in at the hot corner.

Span (foot) back in Nationals' lineup Tuesday

Denard Span (foot) is back in the Nationals' starting lineup on Tuesday night against the Phillies.

Span sat out Monday after fouling yet another ball off his right foot on Sunday. He's had some bad luck this year.

Yankees place Teixeira (wrist) back on DL

Yankees placed 1B Mark Teixeira on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 16, with right wrist inflammation.

An MRI over the weekend didn't reveal any new damage in the wrist, but he was given a cortisone shot and will now get some extended rest. The Yankees are hopeful that he'll be able to play through the condition for the entire season, but the possibility of surgery still looms. Lyle Overbay will fill in at first base once again.
