Update

Right-hander Joshua Torres was promoted to Triple-A Las Vegas from Double-A Binghamton as lefty reliever Buddy Baumann went on the disabled list. Baumann was removed from Friday’s game with what manager Tony DeFrancesco described as shoulder discomfort. Torres was 5-0 with a 1.71 ERA in 18 games at Double-A.
