CHICAGO (AP) — The Miami Marlins placed left-hander A.J. Puk on the 15-day injured list on Saturday with left shoulder fatigue. Puk was tagged for seven runs and seven hits in three innings during an 8-3 loss at the Chicago Cubs on Friday. That was Puk’s first big league start since April 9 after he was slowed by an illness. He is 0-4 with a 9.22 ERA in four starts this season. “A.J.’s been dealing with a little bit since the cramping in the hand and grip issues he had a few games ago,” manager Skip Schumaker said. “It really didn’t get back on track, so we had a conversation with him last night and today. He feels like this isn’t going to be too long of a stint and the conversation moving forward and what exactly that means for him, we’ll have internal discussions about that.” Puk, who turns 29 on Thursday, worked as a reliever in his first four years in the majors, going 13-11 with a 3.72 ERA in 142 outings. |
