Matsuzaka is reporting to Triple-A Columbus

Daisuke Matsuzaka will report to Triple-A Columbus.

Dice-K was allowed to head back to the free agent market, but he has opted to remain in the Indians organization and will try to climb his way up to Cleveland this season. The 32-year-old right-hander signed a minor league contract with the Tribe in early February. He was told Monday -- along with reliever Matt Capps -- that he would not be on the 25-man Opening Day roster.

Brett Lawrie (ankle) takes grounders and BP

Brett Lawrie (ankle) took grounders and some light batting practice on Wednesday afternoon.

It's a nice step in the right direction for the young third baseman, who injured his ankle on a slide on May 27. He should be cleared to run the bases in about one week. Then comes the minor league rehab assignment. The best guess right now is that he's back in early July.

Jose Reyes (ankle) jumping to AAA on Friday

Jose Reyes (ankle) will join Triple-A Buffalo on Friday to continue his rehab assignment.

He'll be just one step away from activation at that point. Reyes, who has been on the shelf since April 12 with a severe ankle sprain, is 5-for-12 through his first three rehab games at High-A Dunedin. He should be back in the Blue Jays' starting lineup in less than a week.

MRI on Morrow's forearm shows nothing major

An MRI taken Wednesday on Brandon Morrow's troublesome right forearm showed no major damage.

Morrow felt lingering discomfort in his forearm Monday after going two innings in a rehab start at High-A Dunedin. He will refrain from throwing for a week or so to let the inflammation that is bothering him go away. Morrow remains sidelined indefinitely.

Cahill leaves game after taking liner off leg

Trevor Cahill was pulled from Wednesday's game against the Marlins after taking a line drive off his leg.

Cahill got hit on the leg in the first inning and tried to come out to pitch the second but couldn't make it through his warmup tosses. He threw a scoreless first frame. It did not appear to be a serious injury.

Sandoval (foot) to begin rehab stint on Sat.

Pablo Sandoval (foot) will begin a minor league rehab assignment Saturday with High-A San Jose.

It was previously reported that he would begin his rehab assignment on Friday, but it will actually start one day later. Either way, he could be activated from the disabled list when the Giants begin a three-game series in Los Angeles on Monday.

Pagan (hamstring) to begin rehab stint Thu.

Angel Pagan (hamstring) will begin a minor league rehab assignment Thursday with High-A San Jose.

Pagan received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his hamstring last week and is no longer dealing with soreness. He's slated to play five innings in his return to game action Thursday. It's not clear how many games he'll need, but he appears on track to rejoin the Giants before the end of the month.

Norichika Aoki placed on paternity leave list

Brewers placed OF Norichika Aoki on the paternity leave list.

Aoki has left the team to be present for the birth of his second child. He is permitted to be away for 24 to 72 hours. Josh Prince has been called up to replace him on the active roster.

Padres place Everth Cabrera (hamstring) on DL

Padres placed SS Everth Cabrera on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 17, with a mild left hamstring strain.

Cabrera suffered the injury trying to steal second base on Sunday. He'll be eligible to return around the start of July and there's a chance he'll be ready by then. Alexi Amarista and Pedro Ciriaco should see playing time at shortstop when he's sidelined.

Astros officially sign No. 1 pick Mark Appel

The Astros have officially agreed to terms with No. 1 overall pick Mark Appel.

The Astros denied reports of a deal over the weekend, but they are expected to hold a press conference Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET to formally announce the signing. Jim Callis of Baseball America reports that Appel will receive a $6.35 million bonus, which is approximately $1.44 million less than the assigned slot value for the pick. Either way, his gamble to go back to Stanford for his senior season has paid off quite nicely. The 21-year-old right-hander has a chance to move through the Astros' system very quickly.

Red Sox ink first-round pick LHP Trey Ball

Red Sox agreed to terms with first-round pick LHP Trey Ball.

Ball, the No. 7 overall pick in this Monday's First-Year Player Draft, took his physical Monday and the signing is expected to be made official Wednesday. The 18-year-old southpaw is expected to sign for less than the $3.246 million recommended slot value for the pick.

Nationals will keep Danny Espinosa in minors

Nationals activated 2B Danny Espinosa from the 15-day disabled list; optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse.

An expected move, as Espinosa batted just .118 (2-for-17) with 10 strikeouts over six rehab games in Triple-A. His wrist is apparently feeling better, but he'll need to have better results before returning to the majors. Anthony Rendon will continue to handle second base duties for the Nats for now.
