The Los Angeles Dodgers placed first baseman/outfielder Cody Bellinger and left-hander Alex Wood on the 10-day disabled list on Tuesday.Bellinger, the standout rookie, suffered a mild right ankle sprain while playing the outfield in Detroit on Sunday. The All-Star leads MLB-best Los Angeles with 34 home runs and 79 RBIs.Wood is making his second trip to the DL this season with a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder. The 26-year-old All-Star went six innings and allowed three runs at Pittsburgh on Monday before coming out of the game and is 14-1 with a 2.41 ERA.In a pair of corresponding moves, the Dodgers recalled right-handers Josh Ravin and Brock Stewart from Triple-A Oklahoma City. Stewart owns a 1.64 ERA in nine previous appearances -- two starts -- for Los Angeles, while Ravin has a 3.38 ERA in four appearances for the Dodgers this season.--The Cleveland Indians placed left-hander Andrew Miller and right-hander Danny Salazar on the 10-day disabled list, the team announced.Miller, who is dealing with patellar tendonitis in his right knee, exited Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox after making seven pitches in the seventh inning. The All-Star reliever had just returned from a 16-day stint on the disabled list.Miller owns a 4-3 mark with two saves and a 1.65 ERA in 48 appearances this season.Like Miller, Salazar is also making his second trip to the disabled list this season. The 27-year-old, who is being plagued by right elbow inflammation, has posted a 5-6 record with a 4.30 ERA in 18 appearances this season.-- Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt is being monitored for concussion-like symptoms and won't work the rest of the series between the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Indians.Wendelstedt left Monday's game after getting hit on his facemask by a warmup pitch from Boston pitcher Joe Kelly in the sixth inning.Kelly entered the game with two outs in the sixth, and Carlos Santana the batter. As Kelly was warming up, Wendelstedt crouched behind Boston catcher Christian Vazquez, to get a look at Kelly's pitches.One of Kelly's pitches, which appeared to be a high fastball, glanced off Vazquez's glove and hit Wendelstedt on the upper part of his mask. Wendelstedt was staggered by the impact, and went down on one knee. After being checked by the Indians' assistant athletic trainer Michael Salazar, Wendelstedt remained in the game.--The Texas Rangers placed slugger Joey Gallo on the seven-day concussion list.The infielder, who is tied for second in the American League with 35 homers, was injured in Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Gallo collided with right-hander Matt Bush while chasing after a popup near third base and suffered a fractured nose as well as experiencing concussion-like symptoms.Gallo, who has 10 homers in August, has been a prime factor in Texas' recent improvement. The Rangers have won nine of their past 12 games entering Tuesday's contest against the Los Angeles Angels.The Rangers recalled infielder Phil Gosselin from Triple-A Round Rock to fill the roster opening. Gosselin is batting .146 in 29 major league games with the Pittsburgh Pirates and Rangers this season.--The Chicago White Sox recalled right-hander Lucas Giolito from Triple-A Charlotte and optioned right-hander Brad Goldberg.Giolito, who was acquired along with right-handers Reynaldo Lopez and Dane Dunning in the deal that sent center fielder Adam Eaton to the Washington Nationals over the winter, is getting his first chance to impress his new major league club after going 6-10 with a 4.48 ERA in 24 starts for Charlotte.The 23-year-old former first-round pick went 3-1 with a 1.71 ERA in his last five starts for Charlotte and will start for the White Sox on Tuesday against the Minnesota Twins.--The Boston Red Sox placed right-hander Matt Barnes on the 10-day disabled list with a lower back strain, the team announced.Fellow right-hander Hector Velazquez was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket to replace Barnes, who owns a 6-3 mark with a 3.60 ERA this season.Barnes has limited the opposition to a .210 batting average with 66 strikeouts against 27 walks in 59 appearances in 2017.--New York Yankees right-hander Masahiro Tanaka was activated from the 10-day disabled list to start Tuesday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers, the team announced.Tanaka, who was sidelined due to right shoulder inflammation, has battled elbow injuries over the last two years."I feel good," Tanaka said through an interpreter. "All I can say is that I'm able to do what I just did, as far as flat grounds and bullpens, because the arm is feeling better. I feel like there have been more exercises that I've gone through this time around, so I feel like I am coming back at a faster pace."--Hall of Fame broadcaster Rafael "Felo" Ramirez, who served as the Spanish radio voice of the Miami Marlins since their inaugural season, died on Monday at the age of 94, the team announced.Ramirez had been hospitalized since April 26 after he hit his head while falling off the team bus in Philadelphia.Ramirez, who joined the Marlins as the team's Spanish announced in 1993, was enshrined in Cooperstown after receiving the Ford C. Frick Award for broadcasters in 2001."The entire Marlins organization is deeply saddened by the loss of a great friend, Hall-of-Fame broadcaster and community icon, Felo Ramirez," the team said in a statement. "Since our inaugural season, he brought home practically every magical moment in franchise history to generations of fans. A true broadcast legend, Felo lent his voice to over 30 World Series and All-Star Games and his extensive contributions to our game will never be forgotten."
