--LHP Rich Hill (sore left elbow) allowed two runs on one hit and a walk while striking out four in 3 1/3 innings Wednesday during a rehab appearance for Class AAA Norfolk (Va.). He threw 63 pitches. Hill will throw again Monday, with the goal of increasing his pitch count toward 100.
--C Gregg Zaun returns to Toronto, where he spent the last five years, in the midst of a hefty slump. Zaun is batting .111 (6-for-54), including a 3-for-43 stretch since opening the season 3-for-11 with three doubles.
--C Matt Wieters will not be recalled just because C Gregg Zaun is struggling. Manager Dave Trembley said of his top prospect: "I think the Wieters thing is a separate entity all to itself. I don't think the decision on Wieters has anything to do with what Zaun does or doesn't do."
