AROUND THE HORN

-

Red Sox: Red Sox third baseman Pablo Sandoval will miss the rest of the season after having surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder on Tuesday. He is expected to make a full recovery in time for the 2017 season. Sandoval reported to spring training visibly overweight, then lost his starting job to Travis Shaw.

Orioles: Shortstop J.J. Hardy was placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Orioles because of a hairline fracture in his left foot. Hardy is expected to miss four to six weeks. The three-time Gold Glove winner said he has no idea when he might return. The injury occurred Sunday when Hardy fouled a ball off his foot in the fourth inning against the White Sox.

White Sox: Left-hander John Danks is out after a 10-year run in Chicago, and Erik Johnson will be promoted on Thursday to start against the Red Sox. Looking to build on their 18-8 start, the White Sox decided they had to cut Danks and search for a more reliable option at the back end of their rotation. The White Sox are responsibl­e for the remaining portion of Danks’ $14.25 million salary this year, a little more than $11.7 million when he is designated for assignment on Thursday.

Reds: The Reds have activated left-hander John Lamb off the disabled list to start Tuesday night’s game against the Giants. Scheduled starter Jon Moscot is still having soreness in his nonthrowin­g shoulder. Lamb made 10 starts for the Reds last season, going 1-5 with a 5.80 ERA. Moscot (0-2) dislocated his left shoulder last June in a collision on the bases.

Rangers: Catcher Bobby Wilson was traded from the Tigers back to the Rangers for minorleagu­e pitcher Chad Bell. Wilson, 33, batted .154 in five games for the Tigers. In five minor-league seasons, Bell was 32-28 with a 3.66 ERA with 463 strikeouts in 576 innings.

Tigers: The Tigers activated catcher James McCann from the 15-day disabled list.
