ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Arizona Diamondbacks placed right-hander Anthony DeSclafani on the 15-day injured list Wednesday because of right thumb inflammation after he made three starts.
DeSclafani (1-2, 4.36 ERA) has been primarily a reliever for the Diamondbacks, but made the starts this month after Merrill Kelly was traded to Texas at the deadline on July 31.
Arizona made the move with DeSclafani before the series finale at Texas, when Kelly was starting for the Rangers. The Diamondbacks recalled right-hander Casey Kelly from Triple-A Reno.
“We’re hoping for the minimal time. He’s going to get some imaging just to make sure that everything’s OK,” manager Torey Lovullo said. “This is something that popped up a couple days ago. We all felt that he was going to be able to take the baseball and go out there and compete, which he did. We saw the stuff in the first couple of innings and we decided it was time to take him off the field.”
In the three starts this month, DeSclafani is 0-1 with a 5.59 ERA, allowing six runs in 9 2/3 innings. He threw three innings Tuesday night, allowing two runs in a game Arizona won 3-2 on a homer by Ketel Marte in the ninth.
