Salomon Torres was available to pitch Sunday despite groin tightness. Torres was unavailable Saturday, but manager Ned Yost indicated that the injury isn't considered serious.

But if it gets fatigued it could be a problem. It was more a precaution than anything else."Source: Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel
