Yamamoto goes down with injury; Dugger to make next start

On Wednesday, the Marlins announced that Jordan Yamamoto would be placed on the 10-day IL with a right forearm strain. Robert Dugger will take his spot in the rotation for at least Thursday’s start versus Alex Wood and the Reds.

Yamamoto has pitched 133 23 innings this season between Double-A and the major leagues. That is one inning shy of his career high, which he set in 2016 with the Milwaukee Brewers Class-A affiliate.

Yamamoto’s rookie season has definitely had its ups and downs.
