Roster Report

MEDICAL WATCH:

--1B Jim Thome (sore lower back) left the April 28 game after four innings and did not play April 29. He said he expected it to be nothing more than a day-to-day injury.

--RHP Mike Stutes (right shoulder inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 22. Stutes first felt the pain in mid-March but tried to pitch through it.

--1B Ryan Howard (left Achilles tendon surgery in October 2011) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 26. He saw a wound specialist in Philadelphia on April 23 and again on April 27. He flew to Florida on April 29 to continue his rehab from left Achilles surgery.

--LHP Cliff Lee (strained left side muscle) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 19. He said he doesn't think he'll be able to start in Washington on May 3, the first day he is eligible to return.

--2B Chase Utley (chronic tendinitis in both knees) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 26. Utley, who has been rehabilitating in Arizona all season, was expected to join the team this week and could take his rehab to Clearwater in the near future.

--INF Michael Martinez (broken right foot) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 26. He might be able to return in May.

--RHP Justin De Fratus (sprained right elbow) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 26. He made a rehab appearance April 22 for Class A Clearwater, but his arm didn't respond favorably in the days that followed. He was shut down until late May.
