Tom Wilhelmsen costs himself chance for 12th save
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Mariners closer Tom Wilhelmsen suffered his first blown save Monday at Cleveland after the Indians tied the game at 7 in the ninth inning. Wilhelmsen was in line for his 12th save after first baseman Justin Smoak made a diving stop on a hard hit grounder by Carlos Santana with two outs, but Wilhelmsen could not field the throw at first base, allowing the tying run to score.

Wilhelmsen worked out of the jam, but the damage was done. He was charged with one unearned run on two hits in one inning. He struck out two.

Ted Lilly activated from DL
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com

Dodgers pitcher Ted Lilly has been activated from the disabled list.

The move was expected, as manager Don Mattingly said Sunday. The team sent pitcher Matt Magill down to make room for Lilly. It's unclear if Lilly will be used as a starter or in the bullpen. He has a 5.63 ERA in eight innings this year.

Hisashi Iwakuma burned by a few HRs Monday
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Mariners starting pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma allowed a season-high five runs in six innings during a no-decision Monday at Cleveland. He allowed seven hits and three walks, while striking out six.

Iwakuma was handed a 2-0 lead before he took the mound in the bottom of the first, but he gave up the lead in the bottom of the second inning as Ryan Raburn clubbed a three-run homer and Yan Gomes added a solo home run. Seattle battled back to tie the game at 4 in the third inning, but Iwakuma allowed Cleveland to jump back out to a one-run lead in the bottom of the inning. The right-hander then settled down to toss three scoreless innings before hitting the showers.

Iwakuma's ERA jumped from 1.84 to 2.37. He had allowed a total of five earned runs in his previous three starts. Iwakuma has failed to make it six innings just once this season.

Iwakuma, who hasn't lost a decision in his last five starts, will be back on the mound Sunday against the Rangers. He is 1-0 with a 1.35 ERA against Texas this season.

Jurickson Profar worth a gamble for upside?
by Joe Polito | CBSSports.com

When Ian Kinsler landed on the 15-day disabled list, Fantasy owners began flocking to Jurickson Profar’s player page, making the Rangers prospect the most viewed player heading into week eight.

Profar might have a promising future ahead of him, but present circumstances indicate this big league stint could be short-lived. Still, our Scott White said on Monday’s broadcast of Fantasy Baseball Today that even with the uncertainty, he’d drop someone such as Tony Cingrani for Profar just in case something happens to make room for him in the Texas lineup.

by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Gomes, who has four home runs, extended his hitting streak to five games. He's batting .450 (9 for 20) with two home runs, two doubles and five RBI in that span.

Manager raves about Evan Longoria
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Rays third baseman Evan Longoria extended his career-best hitting streak to 14 games Monday at Toronto. Longoria went 2 for 4 with one run, one double and two RBI.

"It's the best baseball I've seen him play day in and day out, offensively and defensively," Rays manager Joe Maddon said, per MLB.com. "Every thing about his game has been superb, and it's been fun to watch."

Longoria is batting .393 (22 for 56) with three home runs, eight doubles and 14 RBI during his hitting streak. He's now reached base in a major-league best 43 games this season.

"I think the big thing is not chasing," Maddon said. "You talk about that all the time. Once a major-league hitter establishes his own strike zone and forces a pitcher to come to him more than he permits the pitcher to dictate, that's when he becomes really good."

by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com

Brewers third baseman Aramis Ramirez is in the team's lineup Monday.

Alex Cobb doesn't feel strikeout pace will last
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Rays starting pitcher Alex Cobb has struck out 52 batters in 53 innings, resulting in a career-high 8.8 strikeouts per nine innings. But the right-hander said Monday he's not trying to get strikeouts and isn't confident his strikeout rate will remain this high.

"I'm trying to attack the zone," Cobb said, per MLB.com. "Once I get to two strikes, then I'm trying to put guys away. I don't think I'm striking out too many guys. I'd obviously rather get balls put into play earlier in the count, put it on the ground. But when it doesn't go that way, you have to improvise and try to get the guy out to the best ability. Once there are two strikes, I try to put them away. It's just going that way right now. It won't be like that later in the year."

Shin-Soo Choo a late addition to Reds' Monday lineup
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com

Shin-Soo Choo will start for the Reds Monday.

Choo was not on the original lineup card, but was a late addition. He'll hit leadoff and play center. Shane Robinson will no longer get the start. Choo is hitting .309/.456/.549 in 162 at-bats this year.
