Bryan Shaw goes to Cleveland

Indians acquired RHP Bryan Shaw from the Diamondbacks in a three-team trade.

Shaw pitched well for the D'Backs in 2011 but was up and down from the majors and minors this past season, posting a 3.49 ERA and 1.42 WHIP with the big club. He'll slide into a middle relief role in Cleveland.

Clay Buchholz (neck) placed on disabled list

Red Sox placed RHP Clay Buchholz on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 9, with a strained neck.

Buchholz was able to throw a bullpen session on Tuesday, but evidently he's still not feeling well enough to make his start on Saturday. It's not clear at this point how long he'll be out. The Red Sox are expected to call up Allen Webster to start over the weekend.

Perez allows three homers in rehab appearance

Chris Perez (shoulder) allowed three homers and five runs in an inning of work in his second rehab appearance with Double-A Akron.

Perez gave up five hits overall and also hit a batter. The right-hander was supposed to be activated from the disabled list on Friday, but the Indians might re-think that after tonight's showing. Vinnie Pestano owners should hang on to him.

Marco Scutaro back in Giants' lineup Tuesday

Marco Scutaro is back in the Giants' lineup Tuesday.

Scutaro is dealing with "mallet finger" in his left pinkie, which is a form of tendon damage. The injury can often take 6-8 weeks to fully recover from, but Scutaro will try to play through it. He had missed the previous six games.

J.J. Putz to begin rehab assignment Thursday

J.J. Putz (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Reno on Thursday.

He'll remain with Reno through next Tuesday, as the D'Backs want him to appear in back-to-back games before being activated. Heath Bell has been scored upon in each of his last three outings and seems likely to cede the closer job back to Putz.

Michael Morse (quad) sitting out Tuesday

Michael Morse is not in the Mariners' lineup Tuesday due to his nagging right quad injury.

Morse originally suffered the injury in late May, and he's been unable to totally shake it. The M's have admitted that they would have placed him on the DL earlier had they not been dealing with other injuries, and they're probably wishing they would have gone ahead and done it, anyway. Morse was out testing the quad prior to Tuesday's game and is hoping to be back in the lineup soon.

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.

Willingham (knee) back in Twins' lineup Tues.

Josh Willingham (knee) is back in the Twins' starting lineup on Tuesday evening versus the White Sox.

Willingham got a cortisone shot in his troublesome left knee on Sunday. He'll try to play through the pain.

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.
