The Miami Marlins have placed left-handed pitcher Ryan Weathers on the 15-day injured list due to a sprained left index finger.
Weathers experienced discomfort during his start on Friday and exited after giving up a two-run home run to Cleveland’s Brayan Rocchio. He pitched for 2 1/3 innings in the Marlins’ 3-2 win.
“As long as it doesn’t require surgery, I feel optimistic,” Marlins manager Skip Schumaker stated. “It’s tough to lose one of our best pitchers, especially with his recent performances, but I believe he’ll be back soon.”
The 24-year-old Weathers, who was acquired from San Diego last season, had pitched at least six innings and allowed 11 runs in his previous six starts.
To fill Weathers’ roster spot, Miami recalled right-hander Roddery Muñoz from Triple-A Jacksonville. Muñoz is set to make his third major league start against Cleveland on Saturday.
