Bud Norris goes seven-plus scoreless in win

Bud Norris fired 7 1/3 innings of scoreless ball Wednesday in the Astros' 2-0 victory over the Cardinals.

Norris allowed just two hits and did not issue a walk. He fanned seven. It's the deepest the right-hander has gone in a game this year, and the performance earned him his first win since May 21. Norris will finish up against the light-hitting Cubs next week.

John Danks to make season debut on Friday

John Danks (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list to make his season debut Friday against the Marlins.

White Sox manager Robin Ventura finally made the decision official on Wednesday night. Danks posted a 3.18 ERA during his four rehab starts, but he also had a 15/13 K/BB ratio and is still dealing with diminished velocity. Mixed leaguers should stay away for now.

Buchholz moves to 7-0 in win over White Sox

Clay Buchholz moved to 7-0 on Wednesday after holding the White Sox to one run over seven innings.

The Red Sox won the game 6-2. Buchholz was brilliant yet again, yielding only five hits while fanning four batters. He has a 1.73 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 73/27 K/BB ratio in 72 2/3 total innings this season and should be able to keep the dominance going next week in an interleague matchup against the struggling Phillies.

Davis has four hits, O's win 6-3 over Yankees

Chris Davis went 4-for-4 with his 14th home run Wednesday, and the Orioles beat the Yankees 6-3.

Davis continues to tear the cover off the baseball, now hitting .329/.420/.690 through 45 games this season. He is tied with Justin Upton for the league lead in home runs, and he trails only Miguel Cabrera in RBI. Davis is showing that his breakout 2012 was legit.

Kuroda (calf) expected to make his next start

Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he would be "shocked" if Hiroki Kuroda (calf) was unable to make his next start.

Kuroda's calf tightened up on him an inning after he was hit with a comebacker Wednesday, forcing him to leave the game. But he'll be fine. The right-hander is scheduled to face the Mets early next week.

Liriano dominates again as Pirates beat Cubs

Francisco Liriano fired seven scoreless innings Wednesday in the Pirates' 1-0 victory over the Cubs.

Liriano has been dominant in all three of his starts since returning from the disabled list and is a must-own in every mixed fantasy format at this point. He allowed only two hits to the Cubs on Wednesday, fanning nine batters and walking just one. The left-hander is clearly enjoying his first taste of the National League but has an interleague matchup next week against a tough Tigers offense. It'll be a good test.

Wilson cruises past Mariners in 7-1 victory

C.J. Wilson allowed just one run over eight innings of the Angels' 7-1 win over the Mariners on Wednesday.

Wilson had pitched well in three losses prior to Wednesday's start, so he took matters into his own hands against the Mariners. Wilson struck out 10 batters in his eight innings, and he now owns a 3.39 ERA through 10 starts. He'll take his next turn Monday against the Dodgers.

Cliff Lee spins three-hit shutout versus Fish

Cliff Lee overwhelmed the Marlins Wednesday, going the distance while allowing just three hits, two walks and no runs while striking out five in the 3-0 win.

Lee got into trouble in the second inning with a single, walk and hit by pitch, but he pulled a Houdini act with a 5-2-3 double play followed by a pop-out. Two of the three base knocks he allowed were of the infield variety, and all three were singles. The southpaw will take a nifty 2.48 ERA and 1.02 WHIP into next week's start in Boston.

Delmon Young homers in second straight game

Delmon Young homered for the second straight game in Wednesday's win over the Marlins.

Young also added an infield single and a pair of runs scored. His solo shot to left field in the fourth inning got the scoring started for the Phils, and it's all the scoring Cliff Lee needed. Young is still batting just .233/.304/.450 for the season but could be heating up.

Rockies send Josh Rutledge down to Triple-A

Rockies optioned 2B Josh Rutledge to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Manager Walt Weiss indicated recently that he was going to stick with Rutledge through his slump, but evidently he had a change of heart. The second baseman sports just a .242/.298/.357 batting line for the season and is hitting only .206/.250/.294 over his last 11 games. The Rox appeared poised to go with D.J. LeMahieu at second base for now.

Slowey forced from outing due to strained lat

Kevin Slowey left Wednesday's start against the Phillies after the fifth inning with a left lat strain.

The Marlins are calling him day-to-day, so it's evidently a minor strain. He will be reevaluated on Thursday before it's determined whether he can make his next start. Slowey was pitching well Wednesday before getting hurt, tossing five innings of one-run ball on six hits and no walks while recording six strikeouts.

Westbrook (elbow) has to halt bullpen session

Jake Westbrook had to stop his bullpen session Wednesday after 20 pitches due to pain in his right elbow.

Well, that's not good. Westbrook felt fine while playing catch, but this was the first time since landing on the disabled list that he tried to throw from a mound. The right-hander isn't sure what the next step is, but obviously he's not going to be back anytime soon.
