Braves Place Daysbel Hernandez on 15-Day Injured List With Forearm Inflammation
Daysbel Hernandez (forearm) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to June 5) with right-forearm inflammation and selected the contract of right-hander Craig Kimbrel to the active big-league roster in a corresponding move. The Braves also added left-hander Dylan Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett. The 28-year-old was experiencing numbness in his right pinkie finger during Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks and will now miss at least the next couple of weeks. The injury doesn't sound good, though, so the Braves could be without a key bullpen piece for a while. The Cuban hurler had gone 3-1 with a 2.22 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, 21 strikeouts and 20 walks in 24 1/3 relief innings. Hernandez was walking 7.4 hitters per nine innings, though, and his 4.06 FIP shows his 2.22 ERA is a bit of a mirage this year.
