| Joe Mays is headed to the minors, but remains hopeful he'll get a chance to pitch for the Dodgers this season, the AP reports. The 31-year-old right-hander was a non-roster invitee trying to earn the fifth spot in the rotation, but the competition ended Sunday when manager Grady Little said Brett Tomko was the winner. |

| Joe Mays has agreed to a minor league contract with the Dodgers. Mays, who will be invited to spring training, was 0-5 with an 8.70 ERA and a 2.05 WHIP over 50.2 IP with the Reds last season. |

| It's possible the Reds could designate Joe Mays for assignment today to clear a roster spot for David Ross, who is expected to be activated from the DL, according to the Cincinnati Post. Mays, who holds an 8.70 ERA in 13 games for the Royals and Reds this year, is scheduled to pitch on Saturday, but it seems unlikely he will be around to make that start. The team will likely call up a starter from Triple-A to make a spot start on Saturday before activating Brandon Claussen from the DL the next time a fifth starter is needed. |

| Joe Mays is expected to make Brandon Claussen's scheduled start next Wednesday against the Mets in New York after Claussen was placed on the DL on Saturday, according to the AP. Mays has a 1.29 ERA in three relief appearances with the Reds. He was 0-4 with a 10.27 ERA in six starts for the Royals earlier this season. |
