Diamondbacks place Corbin Burnes on 15-day IL, await further medical tests
The Arizona Diamondbacks placed pitcher Corbin Burnes on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with elbow inflammation as the team awaits further medical advice on the course of treatment. The 30-year-old righty, who signed a six-year, $210 million free-agent contract with Arizona in the offseason, exited Sunday's start against the Washington Nationals in the top of the fifth after experiencing tightness in his throwing elbow. Advertisement Burnes did not travel with the team on its current road trip to Atlanta, staying in Phoenix to get an MRI on Monday. 'He did get the MRI. It's still being read by several doctors,' Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo told reporters on Tuesday before the team's game against the Braves. 'I know he's on his way to seeing and meeting with more doctors in person. That will happen on Thursday in L.A. (with Dr. Neal ElAttrache). But I did speak to Corbin today. He seems to be in really good spirits. 'We're just trying to figure out what the best game plan is, but nothing has been determined at this point.' While Lovullo noted that the MRI was 'not inconclusive,' he did not detail any other specifics about the injury or course of action at this point. 'I just think there's other opinions that he wants to get,' Lovullo said. 'We totally respect that. I think every pitcher does that in this game. You get a first opinion and sometimes a second and third opinion. So he's on his way to getting a second opinion.' Burnes told reporters after Sunday's game that he started feeling tightness while facing the first two batters of the inning. He exited after giving up a single to Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams, calling for a trainer after the velocity on his fastball dropped significantly during the at-bat. After the game, Burnes was optimistic that 'it's not too bad.' The impact of Burnes' potential long-term absence would be felt throughout the organization. The fourth-place Diamondbacks (28-31) currently face the prospect of trying to climb back in the NL West race without their best starting pitcher. The team will replace Burnes in the rotation with Ryne Nelson but also expect the return of Eduardo Rodriguez from the 15-day injured list (shoulder inflammation) in the near future. But a season-ending injury to Burnes, whose 2.66 ERA is currently sixth among NL starters, would severely hamper the team's chances of gaining ground on the division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers (36-24) or third-place San Francisco Giants (33-27), who sit 4 1/2 games ahead of them. Advertisement Should the Diamondbacks, who finished 11-17 in May, continue to struggle, they may find themselves heading into the July 31 trade deadline as sellers just two seasons after winning the National League pennant. Veteran starters Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly will both be free agents at the end of the season, as will first baseman Josh Naylor and third baseman Eugenio Suárez.

The Giants place winless Justin Verlander on the IL with a pec strain
SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Giants placed winless right-hander Justin Verlander on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a strained right pectoral muscle. Verlander left his most recent start on Sunday against the Athletics early after struggling with his velocity and command because of discomfort. He threw on the side on Wednesday and still had issues, so he was placed on the injured list before the team begins a road trip on Friday in Washington.
