Orioles’ Davis out past All-Star break

Sidelined with a right oblique strain, Chris Davis can’t seem to get comfortable lying down or sitting in a chair. So, it will probably be after the All-Star break before the Baltimore Orioles first baseman is ready to swing a bat in a big league game again.

“I think three weeks would be real ambitious,” manager Buck Showalter said. “I’d sign up for that right now.”

Davis, who has hit 140 home runs since the start of the 2013 season, went on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday.

Minnesota signed shortstop Royce Lewis, 18, giving the first overall pick in the draft a $6,725,000 bonus that’s the most for a high school player since the new compensation system began five years ago.

Texas placed right-handed starter Andrew Cashner on the 10-day DL with a strained left oblique, purchased the contract of right-hander Ernesto Frieri from Triple-A Round Rock and designated first baseman-outfielder Peter O’Brien for assignment.
