Clayton Richard expected to start Monday
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:36 pm ET) Padres starting pitcher Clayton Richard is on track to be activated from the disabled list Monday to start against the Mariners, MLB.com reports. Richard has been out since May 5 with an intestinal virus.

"He came out of his bullpen fine," Padres manager Bud Black told MLB.com. "It looks as if Clayton is tracking toward Monday."

"I'm definitely excited to be back with the team and I'm ready to pitch when I get the opportunity to," Richard said. "Everything has been going well, and I've been feeling good. That's the reason for everything, to start feeling better, and it feels good to be on the right track."

Edinson Volquez's start has been pushed back to Tuesday.

by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(11:35 pm ET) Athletics starting pitcher A.J. Griffin was knocked around but escaped with his fifth win Saturday against the Astros.

by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(11:17 pm ET) White Sox starter Jake Peavy, who took the loss his previous start May 19, surrendering four runs in six innings, bounced back with a complete-game victory Saturday against the Marlins.

Peavy (6-2) pitched eight scoreless innings before allowing a one-out, game-tying solo home run to Derek Dietrich in the ninth inning. But he got the win when the White Sox had a walkoff single in the bottom of the inning. Peavy allowed six hits and two walks while striking out five in a 2-1 win -- his longest outing of the season.

Peavy has allowed two runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. He is scheduled to start Thursday at the Cubs.

by R.J. White | CBSSports.com
(11:03 pm ET) Dodgers pitcher Ted Lilly returned to the rotation Saturday and held the Cardinals to two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk in 5 1/3 innings while striking out three. He also hit a batter.

It was Lilly's first major-league action since April 29, when he allowed four earned runs in three innings. He was available out of the bullpen this week but was not used before making the start Saturday. He's on track to face the Angels Thursday.
