| Orlando Hudson (2B) AZ FREE PREVIEW UPDATE |
7/23/2008 |
| Hudson (shin) is day-to-day after X-rays came back negative, the East Valley Tribune reports. |
Augie Ojeda or Chris Burke will start in place of Hudson if he's unable to play on Wednesday, but either way, this ailment shouldn't keep him out of the lineup long. |

|
| Troy Percival (P) TB FREE PREVIEW UPDATE |
7/23/2008 |
| Percival picked his 20th save of the season on Wednesday. It was his first save since being activated from the disabled list on July 20. |
Percival relieved James Shields in the bottom ninth with one out and a runner on second. The only flaw for Percival was a wild pitch that allowed the runner to reach third and score on an Emil Brown sacrifice fly. The Rays may use Grant Balfour and Dan Wheeler for the occasional save opportunity, but Percival should see the majority of chances from here on out. |

| Oswalt (hip, back) felt fine after a bullpen session on Wednesday where he threw between 40 and 50 pitches, the Astros' official site reports. |
"I didn't throw 100 percent," Oswalt said. "I threw about 75 to 80 percent, and it feels pretty good. I'll know a lot more Friday, when I throw 100 percent and see how I feel." He'll be re-evaluated after his next session on Friday before his availability for a potential return to the rotation on Monday is officially determined. |

| Bronson Arroyo (P) CIN FREE PREVIEW UPDATE |
7/23/2008 |
| After winning his fifth straight start on Wednesday, Arroyo made his plea to not get traded before the deadline, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. |
Arroyo gave up two homers on Wednesday, but overall limited the damage to three runs allowed, in no small part by issuing zero walks while striking out seven in seven innings. "I'd really be disappointed if they made a trade for me," Arroyo said. "I feel like honestly if you trade me, you're going ahead and saying we're not going to build a winning team here. Of the four starters who have been here all year, I think all of us have a chance to pitch here for a long time, health-wise and age-wise. If you go ahead and trade me out now, you're cashing in the money for a losing team." |
