Reds make multiple cuts

Reds optioned LHP Tony Cingrani, RHP Daniel Corcino to Triple-A Louisville; RHPs Kyle Lotzkar, Josh Ravin to Double-A Pensacola; RHP Carlos Contreras, OF Yorman Rodriguez to Low-A Dayton.

The Reds also reassigned righties Nick Christiani and Chad Rogers, catcher Nevin Ashley, infielder Kristopher Negron and outfielder Ryan LaMarre to minor league camp. It's a little surprising that Cingrani was cut already, but he didn't have a real chance at cracking the Opening Day roster. The left-hander will join the rotation at Louisville.

Jose Bautista could join Braves on road trip

Jose Bautista could be added to the Braves' roster sometime during their April 23-May 3 road trip.

Bautista reached base twice in his first game at High-A Florida and will play for them again Sunday before moving up to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday. The 37-year-old signed a minor league contract with the Braves last week is getting reacquainted with third base. For what it's worth, manager Brian Snitker said the early reports of Bautista's work at the hot corner have been good. Bautista has hit only .216/.333/.402 over the last two seasons, but he's still worth a stash in deep leagues.

Walker Buehler to start for Dodgers on Monday

The Dodgers will recall Walker Buehler to start Monday versus the Marlins.

The Dodgers needed a fill-in for Rich Hill (finger). The feeling is that Hill should be ready to go later this week, so it will probably only be a spot start for Buehler in all likelihood. Still, he's a worthy streamer in a nice matchup. The top prospect has posted a 2.08 ERA and 16/4 K/BB ratio over 13 innings this season for Triple-A Oklahoma City. Buehler will be making his first major league start after he was up for eight relief appearances last year.

Buster Posey (back) returns to Giants' lineup

Buster Posey (back) is back in the Giants' lineup Sunday.

Posey was a late scratch Saturday due to back tightness, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in this one. He's catching and batting cleanup versus Jaime Barria and the Angels.

OF David Dahl promoted from Triple-A

Rockies recalled OF David Dahl from Triple-A Albuquerque.

The Rockies are in need of outfield help with Carlos Gonzalez (hamstring) landing on the disabled list and Gerardo Parra serving a suspension. Illness has limited Dahl to just six games at Albuquerque this season and he's batted just .231/.231/.308 in those contests, but the 24-year-old remains a dynamic talent and should have a shot at regular playing time for a while. He should be scooped up in fantasy leagues.

Rockies place OF CarGo (hamstring) on DL

Rockies placed OF Carlos Gonzalez on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to April 19, with a right hamstring strain.

The Rockies held off placing CarGo on the DL after he tweaked his hamstring last Wednesday, but he didn't recover as quickly as hoped. With Gerardo Parra serving a suspension, David Dahl, Ryan McMahon, and Noel Cuevas will be in line for playing time over the next few days.

Wainwright (elbow) lands on disabled list

Cardinals placed RHP Adam Wainwright on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to April 20, with right elbow inflammation.

Wainwright first felt discomfort while delivering a pitch in his last start and again during a bullpen session. For what it's worth, he suggested on Twitter that he doesn't expect to be out long. Wainwright did have elbow surgery last fall but had pitched well over his last two outings. Jack Flaherty will replace him in the Cards' rotation.

DeShields (hand) returns from disabled list

Rangers activated OF Delino DeShields from the 10-day disabled list.

DeShields is back in his customary center field and leadoff spots Sunday against Erasmo Ramirez and the Mariners. He was sidelined for the previous three and a half weeks following surgery for a fractured hamate bone in his left hand.

Trumbo (quad) to resume rehab games Monday

Mark Trumbo (quad) will resume a rehab assignment at Double-A Bowie on Monday.

Trumbo played one rehab game earlier this month before the Orioles backed off when it was clear he wasn't ready. He's feeling much better now, though. Trumbo will play for Bowie through Wednesday before taking a day off and then moving up to Triple-A Norfolk on Friday if all goes well. He'll need a good number of rehab at-bats before being activated since he missed a chunk of spring training.

Nats will 're-evalute' Rendon (toe) again

Nationals manager Dave Martinez said after Saturday's game that Anthony Rendon (toe) was still "pretty sore" after a workout earlier in the day and the team is "going to have to re-evaluate again and see where he’s at."

Rendon was available to pinch-hit Saturday, but only "if we had a chance to tie or go ahead," Martinez said. The third baseman has already been sidelined for eight days, as it's clear the Nats should have just immediately put him on the disabled list. However, they can only backdate a DL move three days, so if they did it now Rendon wouldn't be eligible to return until April 29. His status remains up in the air.
