» Shane Victorino (St. Anthony) is hitting .385 (10-for-26) over his last seven games, of which the Phillies have lost six. Victorino is currently fifth in All-Star fan voting among National League outfielders.
» Kurt Suzuki (Baldwin)had three assists in one inning in which the putouts were all recorded by different positions—first, second and shortstop—in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Dodgers. Suzuki became the first catcher to accomplish the feat since 1976, when Braves catcher Vic Correll also did it against the Dodgers.
» The Detroit Tigers designated catcher Dane Sardinha (Kamehameha) for assignment yesterday and recalled right-handed pitcher Alfredo Figaro from Double-A Erie. The demotion was in large part due to Sardinha's weak bat. He hit .097 (3-for-31) with 16 strikeouts in 12 games with the big-league club.
» Tyler Yates (Kauai) remains on the disabled list due to his troublesome pitching elbow. The Pirates sent the righty reliever to the club's spring training facility in Bradenton, Fla. on Thursday for extended rehabilitation. According to Yahoo! Sports, Yates has been told not to throw for at least two more weeks. He's been on the disabled list since May 16. The source of his elbow pain is still unknown.
» The Tampa Bay Rays demoted shortstop Brandon Chaves (Hawaii-Hilo) to Double-A Montgomery from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday. The veteran batted .271 (16-for-59) with only two extra base hits in 18 games with Durham.
» Kila Ka'aihue ('Iolani) is hitless (0-for-23) in his last five games and homerless in his last 25 for Triple-A Omaha.
» Dustin Antolin (Mililani) was placed on the seven-day disabled list by Single-A Lansing last Monday. The move is retroactive to June 12.
» Kaimi Mead (Saint Louis) started the season opener for the Single-A Mahoning Valley Scrappers in the short-season New York-Penn League on Friday, allowing two earned runs on one hit in five innings in a 6-5 victory over the Jamestown Jammers. Mead retired the game's first 10 batters before surrendering a homerun in the fourth inning.
