News:
2B Jorbit Vivas, who played in two games since returning from his eye injury, was placed on the 7-day injured list today.
RHP Brian Hendry, receiving buzz in prospect circles, was placed on the 7-day IL today for Hudson Valley. His outing yesterday was short. It is often hard to know if a short outing is a part of a plan or injury. In this case, it was injury.
