  • Activated from injured list
    The Reds activated Moll (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Moll has been out all season with a left shoulder issue and had experienced a little setback earlier this month, but he's been cleared to rejoin the Reds' bullpen after allowing six runs with a 6:2 K:BB over 7.1 rehab innings.

  • Beginning rehab assignment
    The Rangers assigned Sborz (shoulder) to Double-A Frisco on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment.

    Advice: The right-hander has been on the shelf with a rotator cuff strain since April 7, and he shouldn't require a lengthy rehab assignment since it's been a relatively brief absence. Sborz made three appearances prior to the injury and struck out three without allowing a run over 2.2 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 10:58 am
