• Recalled CF Jonathan Davis from Triple-A Buffalo.
• Recalled LF Billy McKinney from Triple-A Buffalo.
• Recalled RF Anthony Alford from Triple-A Buffalo.
• Recalled SP Clayton Richard from Triple-A BUffalo.
• Recalled RP David Paulino from Triple-A Buffalo.
• Recalled SP Clay Buchholz from Triple-A Buffalo.
