The Orioles made a trade yesterday that send pitcher Cla Meredith to the Padres for Oscar Salazar. Baltimore may look to trade guys like Aubrey Huff, George Sherrill, and Danys Baez before the Trade Deadline. Manager Dave Trembley has said that he won't be surprised if the team dramatically changes.
Giambi to DL
Jason Giambi has been placed on the DL with a strained right quad. The A's will be using lots of Nomar Garciaparra at first base. Daric Barton was called up from AAA to take Giambi's spot on the roster.
Pedro Update
RHP Pedro Martinez is on the road to returning to the big leagues. He will toss a simulated game on Tuesday.
Roberts recalled
The D'backs have recalled infielder Ryan Roberts from AAA, to take Felipe Lopez's, who was traded, place on the active roster.
Myers could return in August
Phillies RHP Brett Myers could return in August. He will throw a bullpen session on Saturday. If he returns he will pitch in relief.
