The Tampa Bay Rays placed outfielder Jonny DeLuca (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a right-shoulder strain and recalled infielder Coco Montes in a corresponding move, according to the Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin.

Richie Palacios Needs More Time To Build Up

Tampa Bay Rays infielder/outfielder Richie Palacios (finger), who is rehabbing from a fractured right ring finger, is still waiting for his full grip strength to return.

Phillies Looking To Get Edmundo Sosa More Playing Time

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson sounds inclined to find more at-bats for infielder Edmundo Sosa, even when the team isn't facing a left-handed starter. Sosa will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the division-rival Atlanta Braves with left-hander Chris Sale on the mound, but it remains to be seen who he'll replace. It could […]

Jordan Romano To Be Demoted To Low-Leverage Work?

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson summoned right-handed reliever Jordan Romano for the seventh inning on Sunday against the Los Angels Dodgers with a two-run lead.

Tyler Stephenson Ramping Up His Activities

Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona said that catcher Tyler Stephenson (oblique) was "revved up" after his MRI exam on Monday, which yielded favorable results.

Panthers Sign Tight End Colin Granger

The Carolina Panthers announced on Monday that they signed free-agent tight end Colin Granger to an undisclosed deal.

The Denver Broncos re-signed exclusive-rights free-agent tight end Lucas Krull to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson.
