Jul 2 Contreras, demoted to the minor leagues earlier this season after an 0-5 start, pitched eight superb innings for his third win since his return to the majors as the White Sox beat Cleveland 6-2 on Wednesday night.

Advice: Contreras improved to 3-2 with a 2.17 ERA since being recalled on June 8 from Triple-A Charlotte, a month-long demotion prompted by the 37-year-old's ragged start. The right-hander, who was just 1-6 in his previous 10 road starts.

Jul 1 Contreras held the Indians to two runs on five hits in eight innings Wednesday to pick up his third win of the year.

Recommendation: He struck out eight for the second straight game and only walked one. This was the fifth time in his six starts since returning from Triple-A that he has lasted into the eighth inning. He has 29 strikeouts in 37.1 innings in those games to go with only five walks.

Jun 26 RHP Jose Contreras did pitch through back spasms Friday, but after the game said that he felt better and was able to continue to stay out there. "I felt a little pinch," Contreras said. "I had to lower myself a little bit to throw the forkball, but luckily it was nothing. It was just a little pinch at that moment." Yahoo! Sports
