Adbert Alzolay Exits Early With Trainer
4 years agoChicago Cubs starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay left Monday's contest early with a possible undisclosed injury. Alzolay was struggling all evening with his command and after he opened the bottom of the fourth inning with a walk to Tommy Pham, he was visited by team trainers and immediately yanked from the game by manager David Ross. Alzolay finishes with a line of five hits, four runs, five walks and four strikeouts in three innings. Alzolay's velocity was also down in the contest and the five walks were the most that he has allowed in a game this season. The young right-hander has been putting up respectable numbers and has made for a good option in most formats. More should be known on the status of Alzolay as the evening goes on. Starting pitcher Kohl Stewart would be the most likely replacement if Alzolay has to miss time with pitcher Alec Mills (back) still rehabbing in Triple-A Iowa. Mills could be worth a look in deeper leagues if he enters the rotation.
