delcotimes.com
excerpt: "Outfielder Delmon Young, who had surgery on his right ankle, was placed on the disabled list retroactive to March 22.(Edit:this means to players will sent to minors when Ruiz and Delmon Young are activated--who will they be? My guess Horst or Valdes and , yikes--hard to figure: Franksen maybe? Inciarte will remain: he is rule 5 and they really like him. My big confusion, what happened to Cloyd!!! He is not even on 40-man roster!! Anyone know what happened to Cloyd? They released outright Aaron Cook and Aurelio Lopez recently.Max)
