OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Cleveland Indians hope that good news in the short term will lead to encouraging prospects for the long run when they send right-hander Danny Salazar to the mound to face the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday night.The pitching pairing has the look of a mismatch, with the first-place Indians sending their second-biggest winner (Salazar, 11-4, 3.57 ERA) against the last-place Athletics second-biggest loser (left-hander Sean Manaea, 4-8, 4.73 ERA).However, that is presuming a healthy Salazar shows up, and that is far from a sure thing.Salazar had to be pulled after one inning in his last start, Thursday at home against the Chicago White Sox. He was seeing his first action since returning from a disabled-list stint caused by a sore elbow, a 17-day layoff during which he received a cortisone shot.The 26-year-old reported no discomfort after the 34-pitch debacle in which he allowed three runs on one hit and three walks.Salazar looked so out of sorts, he was sent to the bullpen to throw the equivalent of three more innings, just to get in a good workout.The main thing, Salazar said afterward, was to feel good, and I did. I feel great.He didnt look great, though, and that is what concerns the Indians.In fact, Salazar hasnt look good since the start of July, after having been one of baseballs best pitchers while posting a 10-3 record and a 2.22 ERA.His ERA in four July starts ballooned to 6.14, the ninth highest in the American League, and nobody in the majors has been worse in August, when his ERA has exploded to 27.00 in two starts.Bring on the As, who wish they had Salazars problems.Oakland had to fine two players Monday for fighting, including the guy who was on the receiving end of a punch that gave him a concussion.As manager Bob Melvin said he expects to have Danny Valencia back in the lineup Tuesday. He was the one who got upset when Billy Butler reportedly questioned his loyalty to his shoe-endorsement company before the Friday game in Texas.Butler hasnt played since the fight and now finds himself on the seven-day concussion disabled list. Valencia recorded two hits in the Athletics contests Friday and Saturday before not starting the past two games. He struck out as a pinch hitter Monday.The As looked like a team in disarray Monday in a 1-0, series-opening loss to the Indians. They managed just six hits off Cleveland starter Carlos Carrasco, who had been roughed up for 33 runs in his previous 30 1/3 innings.The lack of offense cost As rookie Andrew Triggs, who failed to record his first major league win despite six shutout innings.You feel for him, As manager Bob Melvin said of Triggs. You cant help but pull for a guy whos a great team guy.If there is a positive for the As entering the Tuesday game, it is that their eight-game loser appears to be in better form than the Indians 11-game winner.Manaea has recorded all four of his wins at home while compiling a 4-3 record and a 3.45 ERA in 12 starts.The rookie has never faced the Indians.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jaguars running back Chris Ivory said hes ready to return to the field now that he has recovered from a medical issue that sent him to the hospital for two days. Its unclear, however, when that will happen.Ivory was at the team facility on Thursday morning for the first time since last week and released the following statement through the team in which he said he was thankful for the support he received from the Jaguars and fans:I returned to the stadium this morning to rejoin my coaches and teammates as we continue to prepare for the San Diego Chargers on Sunday. This past weekend was a challenging time for my family and me because of an emergency medical condition that developed while I was with my team at the hotel. I am now grateful to be back in the facility and able to refocus on the game that I love. I want to extend a special thanks to the Jaguars medical staff, the first responders and everyone at Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville for their assistance over the past couple of days.I appreciate everyones sensitivity during this personal matter, and Im ready to be back out on the field and look forward to doing so in the near future. Thank you for all for your support. I want you to know that I read each and every message and Im thankful for them all.ddddddddddddLater Tuesday, Ivory didnt want to get into specifics of his injury when he was asked questions by reporters.Id rather not speak about specifics.

Im ready to go. Did a little cardio today and now its just day-by-day.Ivory was hospitalized early Sunday morning -- hours before the teams season opener against the Green Bay Packers at EverBank Field -- for what the team called a general medical condition. He was released on Tuesday.Ivory did not practice Wednesday or Thursday, which makes it unlikely that hell be able to play in Sundays game at San Diego.Asked when he thought hed be able to return, Ivory said, Im looking to be back soon.The Jaguars signed Ivory to a five-year, $32 million contract in March. He has rushed for 4,031 yards and 24 touchdowns in six seasons with the New Orleans Saints and New York Jets. ' ' '
