Edwin Maysonet - SS - Brewers

Cesar Izturis - SS - Brewers

Brewers placed SS Cesar Izturis on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left hamstring.

Cody Ransom will be thrust into a starting role at shortstop. Izturis suffered the injury while running the bases in the sixth inning of Friday's game. The Brewers are expected to recall Edwin Maysonet from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding roster move.

Chuckie Fick - R - Cardinals

The Cardinals will recall reliever Chuckie Fick from Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.

The Cardinals need bullpen depth with Kyle McClellan (elbow) on the disabled list. Fick, 26, has a 3.24 ERA in parts of six seasons in the minors. A corresponding roster move is not yet known.

Jose Valverde - R - Tigers

Jose Valverde pitched an inning of scoreless relief in Friday's game against the Twins.

It was Valverde's first appearance since last Tuesday. The 34-year-old right-hander is 7-for-9 in save opportunities and should be made active in all leagues immediately.
May 26 - 3:18 AM
Brian McCann - C - Braves

Brian McCann return to action Friday against the Nationals.

McCann didn't start, and should be considered day-to-day. He'll be forced back into the starting lineup with David Ross (groin) without a timetable.
May 26 - 3:18 AM
Lucas Harrell - S - Astros

Lucas Harrell outdueled Clayton Kershaw beat the Dodgers by allowing one run and five hits in 7 1/3 innings Friday.

Harrell won despite not getting a single strikeout. What he did do was post a 16/3 GB/FB ratio. He's now 4-3 with a 3.72 ERA in his nine starts for the Astros. He's still not a very good bet to provide lasting value in NL-only leagues, but he's been exactly what Houston needed him to be.
May 26 - 3:00 AM
J.D. Martinez - OF - Astros

J.D. Martinez had another nice game Friday, going 2-for-4 with a two-run homer off Clayton Kershaw.

Previously in a 5-for-54 slump, Martinez has five hits his last two games, taking his average from .219 back up to .243.
May 26 - 2:57 AM
Ivan Nova - S - Yankees

Ivan Nova kept his road winning streak alive by allowing three runs over seven innings Friday in a victory over the A's.

Nova has now won nine in a row on the road. Tonight's effort was just his fourth quality start in nine tries this season. He gave up homers to Kila Ka'aihue and Josh Reddick in the outing, bringing his season total to 12 allowed.
May 26 - 2:51 AM
Tyson Ross - S - Athletics

Tyson Ross surrendered six runs -- three earned -- in 4 1/3 innings Friday in a loss to the Yankees.

Ross had given up just two homers in 37 2/3 innings this season, but tonight Mark Teixeira, Robinson Cano and Nick Swisher all took him deep. It was a definite setback for the right-hander, but a rough outing against such a strong offense shouldn't cost him his rotation spot.
May 26 - 2:49 AM
Mark Teixeira - 1B - Yankees

Mark Teixeira went 2-for-5 and hit his sixth homer Friday versus the A's.

Teixeira, who has been bouncing around the lineup lately, found himself in the fifth spot tonight. The homer got his OPS back up to .700 for the first time in four weeks.
May 26 - 2:47 AM
Hunter Pence - OF - Phillies

Hunter Pence hit a game-winning, two-run home run Friday to lead the Phillies to a 5-3 win over the Cardinals.

He went just 1-for-4 on the night and was credited with an error in the fourth inning. Pence is now hitting .253 on the season after struggling throughout most of May. He currently ranks fourth in the National League with 11 home runs.
May 26 - 1:19 AM
Albert Pujols - 1B - Angels

Albert Pujols homered yet again Friday, connecting on a three-run shot as part of a 6-4 victory over the Mariners.

That's five homers in 10 games for Pujols. Of course, he had just one homer in 36 games this season prior to the recent binge. The Angels have now overtaken the Mariners in the standings and are 22-25 for the season.
May 26 - 1:16 AM
Scott Downs - R - Angels

Scott Downs pitched a perfect ninth Friday against the Mariners for his fourth save.

No Ernesto Frieri tonight. Downs' save was his first in two weeks. He still hasn't allowed a run in 14 innings this season.
May 26 - 1:14 AM
Cliff Lee - S - Phillies

Cliff Lee took a no-decision after giving up three runs on eight hits over seven innings.

Lee did strikeout seven, but struggled with his command, issuing three walks and allowing a home run to Rafael Furcal in the third inning. Lee has yet to win a game in seven starts this season. He'll take on the Mets in New York on Wednesday.
May 26 - 1:13 AM
Brandon League - R - Mariners

Brandon League surrendered three runs -- two earned -- in an inning while blowing his fourth save Friday night against the Angels.

League's own error led to the game-tying run, and then he gave up two more runs after intentionally walking Kole Calhoun to face pinch-hitter Howie Kendrick. League had an awful run last May, recovered and put together a great season for the Mariners. The team will hope the same thing happens this year. He's really struggling at the moment, but if he's pulled from the closer's role, it figures to be a temporary measure.
