Brewers place Gomez on DL

-

MILWAUKEE — All-Star outfielder Carlos Gomez has been placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Milwaukee Brewers because of a strained right hamstring.

The move was retroactiv­e to Thursday. The Brewers held off on a roster decision until Friday, when utility man Jason Rogers was recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs.

METS: Reliever Rafael Montero is being sent to Triple-A Las Vegas in order to work up to a spot start for New York on April 28 at Miami.

Manager Terry Collins says this is a one-time outing meant to give the starters an extra day of rest between starts. Speaking before Friday night’s game against the Marlins, he emphasized the Mets are not going to a six-man rotation.

DODGERS: Los Angeles has claimed right-handed pitcher Daniel Corcino from Cincinnati and designated left-handed pitcher Ryan Dennick for assignment.

Corcino has a 45-52 record with a 4.13 ERA in 168 career minor league games in the Reds’ organizati­on. He appeared in five major league games last season.

ANGELS: Manager Mike Scioscia met with Josh Hamilton this week for the first time in months, and says he isn’t sure when the star will return to the team.

Scioscia said he had dinner with Hamilton on Wednesday night when the Angels arrived in Houston for a series that began Friday night. It was the first time Scioscia had seen the slugger since his self-reported relapse into substance abuse.

BLUE JAYS: Shortstop Jose Reyes has a cracked rib on his left side and will miss this weekend’s series against Atlanta.

Reyes won’t play again until at least Tuesday against Baltimore.
