Here are your Tuesday morning PRO Rumors:

• According to Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune, right-handed pitcher Ian Snell of the Seattle Mariners has left the team with family issues.
• Rob Neyer of ESPN.com says that pitcher Chad Cordero is making a comeback and is currently pitching for the Mariner’s Triple-A team. The right-hander has not pitched in the Major Leagues since 2008 when he appeared in 6 games for the Washington Nationals, posting a 2.08 ERA.
• Shi Davidi of The Canadian Press says that the Blue Jays are hoping for an announcement in the next day or two. For what? The announcement will probably involve newly signed Cuban shortstop Adeinis Hechavarria and his formal introduction. Hechavarria just had his visa approved last week.
• Florida Marlins prospect Mike Stanton is 7-for-16 (.438) with two home runs and 3 RBIs for the Marlins’ Double-A team. The Big League club is not in a hurry to rush the 20-year-old to the Majors. Joe Frisaro of MLB.com suspects that Stanton will spend time in Triple-A New Orleans before he plays for the Marlins.
• Barry Zito was charged with an automatic ball when he umpire Gary Cederstrom indicated that the left-handed pitcher went to his mouth on the mound but did not wipe off his hand afterwards. According to Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury, “a pitcher can go to his mouth on the mound, but not while standing on the rubber. In the past, the pitcher would have to be standing off the mound to go to his mouth. In either case, though, the pitcher has to wipe off his hand afterward.”
