Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (elbow) has been transferred to the 60-day disabled list.

Adrian Beltre Taking Grounders on Tuesday

Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre (hamstring) took grounders hit right at him on Tuesday. He did not do any lateral movement, so the veteran is still going to be out for a couple of weeks.
