The Boston Red Sox placed a rookie infielder on the 10-day injured list Friday with a stress reaction in his left forearm. The player had been appearing in games while dealing with the injury before the team decided to rest him. With two other infielders already unavailable, the Red Sox promoted Tsung-Che Cheng from the minors and started him at shortstop in Friday's game.
Cardinals adjust rotation The St.
Louis Cardinals scratched a scheduled starter from Saturday's game due to lingering back tightness. The right-hander had pitched a complete-game shutout on June 15. A rainout earlier in the week allowed another pitcher to move up one day in the rotation and face the Miami Marlins on four days of rest.
Rays injury and lineup notes A Toronto Blue Jays outfielder exited Friday's game in the seventh inning with a sprained right ankle. X-rays were negative and he is considered day-to-day. The Tampa Bay Rays are using an opener followed by multiple relievers against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday instead of their scheduled starter, who would have pitched on four days of rest.
