The Boston Red Sox placed right-hander Tanner Houck on the 15-day injured list Wednesday because of a flexor pronator strain in his right forearm.
The move is retroactive to Tuesday. In a corresponding move, the Red Sox recalled right-hander Cooper Criswell from Triple-A Worcester.
Houck yielded 11 runs, nine hits (including two home runs) and three walks in 2 1/3 innings Monday night in a 14-2 loss at Detroit.
"This is definitely probably the most lost I've ever been," Houck, 28, said after the game. "And just not getting the job done, which weighs on me heavily."
Asked about his health, Houck said, "Physically, I feel good," and added, "I just need to be better."
