Jonathan Loaisiga Heads to 15-Day Injured List
The New York Yankees announced that they have placed reliever Jonathan Loaisiga (back) on the 15-day injured list with right mid-back tightness, retroactive to Aug. 2. The team activated right-hander Luis Gil (lat) from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move. After missing almost all of last season because of elbow surgery, Loaisiga has returned this year to post a 4.25 ERA, a 1.48 WHIP, 25:10 K:BB, and seven holds in 29 2/3 innings. The 30-year-old righty now joins fellow late-game options Fernando Cruz (oblique) and Mark Leiter Jr. (leg) on the IL, though the latter is nearing a return.
