Wei-Ying Chen (Baltimore) was placed on the 15-day DL on Tuesday. From an AP report posted at ESPN:
"It's one of those things that's tough to handicap the severity of it," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. "There's three grades, and I think his was in the middle. If you look at the history of these things, it gives you the idea that it is a little later than sooner. We'll take whatever comes our way."

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.
