Drew Hutchison lands on DL with UCL sprain

Blue Jays placed RHP Drew Hutchison on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow.

The severity of the injury isn't yet known, but Hutchison is likely looking at an extended absence. The Blue Jays are now without Hutchison, Kyle Drabek, and Brandon Morrow in their starting rotation. Robert Coello has been recalled in a corresponding move.

Andrew McCutchen (knee) scratched from lineup

Andrew McCutchen was scratched from the Pirates' lineup due to pain in his right knee.

It's not clear at this point how McCutchen suffered the injury or if it might cause him to miss additional games. The Pirates should offer an update on his status soon. Starling Marte will move over to center field to cover for McCutchen, while Travis Snider plays left and Garrett Jones right.

Dodgers activate Ellis from the disabled list

Dodgers activated 2B Mark Ellis from the 15-day disabled list.

Ellis had been scheduled to remain on his rehab assignment through the weekend, but the Dodgers decided to bring him back early since Luis Cruz (elbow) is banged up. The second baseman is hitting second on Sunday afternoon against the Braves' Mike Minor.

McDonald to begin rehab assignment May 27

James McDonald (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Altoona on May 27.

That's assuming he gets through bullpen sessions on Tuesday and Friday with no issues. McDonald is slated to go four innings and/or throw 65 pitches for Altoona, so he'll need at least one additional rehab start before being activated. He's not a given to rejoin the rotation once healthy.

Knee still an issue, Ramirez sits out again

Aramis Ramirez (knee) is not in the Brewers' lineup Sunday.

He's now sat out two of the last four games. Ramirez has five hits -- including two three-run homers -- in the two games he has played during the stretch, but his left knee remains a problem and manager Ron Roenicke anticipates it being one for a while longer. At this point, it doesn't appear that a trip to the DL is in the plans, but A-Ram will continue to see regular days of rest.

Stephen Drew (back) sitting out again Sunday

Stephen Drew (back) is sitting out for the second straight game Sunday.

Drew was able to play through a minor back issue on Friday, but the Red Sox don't want to push him. He should be ready to roll again soon. Pedro Ciriaco is getting another start at shortstop.

Michael Cuddyer says he'll be activated Fri.

Michael Cuddyer (neck) expects to be activated from the disabled list on Friday when first eligible.

Cuddyer said he is feeling much better after receiving an epidural on Tuesday to relieve the stiffness and soreness in his neck. He resumed baseball activities Saturday, throwing and hitting in the cage. It's possible he'll go out on a short rehab assignment, though that's not a given.

Andrus goes 5-for-5 in Rangers' defeat of DET

Elvis Andrus went 5-for-5 with two RBI to help the Rangers beat the Tigers 7-2 on Saturday night.

Andrus got the Rangers on the board first when he singled and then later scored on a passed ball in the bottom of the opening inning. He would later add a triple, a double and two more singles, also tallying two steals. The talented shortstop is hitting .282/.328/.350 with 12 stolen bases in 42 games played this season.

Ortiz homers twice to help Red Sox rout Twins

David Ortiz was 3-for-4 with two homers and six RBI in Boston's 12-5 rout of the Twins on Saturday.

Ortiz hit a three-run shot in the top of the first inning, a run-scoring single in the top of the third and a two-run bomb in the top of the seventh. The veteran designated hitter has regressed some from his hot start but is still sporting an outstanding .362/.408/.681 batting line with seven homers and 29 RBI in 24 games.

McCarthy twirls gem, D'Backs beat Fish 1-0

Brandon McCarthy threw a three-hit shutout as the Diamondbacks beat the Marlins 1-0 on Saturday.

Everybody looks a little better facing the Marlins, but it's the second-straight outing that McCarthy has held the opponent scoreless and he's now turned in three consecutive quality starts. After his early struggles, McCarthy seems to have turned a corner. We look for him to be more consistent going forward. His next turn will come against the Padres on Friday.

Odorizzi officially starting Monday vs. Jays

The Rays have officially announced that Jake Odorizzi will be Monday's starter against the Blue Jays.

The move won't be made official until Sunday, but the Rays have confirmed what was suspected since David Price (triceps) went on the disabled list. The Blue Jays are not a very pitcher-friendly opponent, but Odorizzi is talented enough to warrant a roster spot in deeper mixed leagues. The 23-year-old right-hander has a 3.83 ERA and 47/15 K/BB ratio in 44 2/3 innings this season at Triple-A Durham.

Johnson blows another save, O's fall to Rays

Jim Johnson blew his second consecutive save in epic fashion Saturday as the Orioles fell to the Rays.

Johnson entered with the O's leading 6-4 and promptly surrendered five earned runs on three hits and two walks. He was among the best closers in baseball last season and started off strong this year, but his past two outings have been very troubling. The Orioles may want to give him a few days of mental rest.
