Former Chunichi Dragon Wei-Ying Chen left his start on Sunday with an oblique strain. From MLB.com's Brittany Ghiroli:
Left-hander Wei-Yin Chen exited the series finale against the Twins with a right oblique strain after tossing five scoreless innings, putting a damper on another impressive Baltimore road win.
... But the good vibes that went along with another double-digit hit effort and a trio of homers was lost when Chen walked off the mound, grabbing his side following Eduardo Escobar's groundout to end the fifth. Oblique strains almost always require a trip to the disabled list and Chen -- the only Orioles pitcher to start 20 games last year -- has been arguably the team's best starter.
"I don't think that happens," Chen, through interpreter Tim Lin, said of going on the DL. "It's not that serious to me. I think it's just a cramp and we'll see what's going to happen tomorrow. We will re-evaluate tomorrow, and hopefully it's just a cramp."
Orioles manager Buck Showalter echoed that optimism and wasn't ready to count out Chen, who said postgame he wasn't in any pain.

| Hiroyuki Nakajima | OAK | DNP | From Athletics Scout.com: It was looking as though Japanese shortstop Hiroyuki Nakajima was getting close to 100 percent following his left hamstring strain suffered in spring training. But after just seven innings and a scheduled day off, Nakajima was held out of Triple-A Sacramento’s lineup Sunday and will head to Oakland for further examination early this week, according to an official statement from the River Cats.

| Junichi Tazawa | BOS | DNP | Was recently accused by Jack Morris of doctoring the baseball. From WEEI.com's Full Count: During Thursday night's broadcast, Morris also noted that Junichi Tazawa rubbed his fingers on his left forearm at one point, and raised questions about whether Tazawa was cheating. "It looks to me like he's got a little something on his forearm also. I don't know if that's anything in the slippery point — it might be some tacky stuff to get a feel, but it's obvious that he has gone to his forearm, too," Morris said. "Who knows? That might just be deception, too." [WEEI.com 5/2/2013] Tazawa spoke to reporters and denied the claims. "I use the rosin and some times water, but I am not doing anything illegal. ... I will not worry about," said Tazawa. [Sponichi 5/4/2013] | ||||||||||
