The New York Mets placed right-handed pitcher Carlos Carrasco on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation and recalled right-hander Jeff Brigham from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.
Carrasco's move to the IL is retroactive to Sunday.
Carrasco, 36, started the season 0-2 with an 8.56 ERA in three starts. He struck out eight, walked eight and hit a major league-leading three batters with pitches in 13u2154 innings. He went five innings in his last start, a no-decision Saturday against the Oakland Athletics.
Carrasco missed some time with an oblique strain in 2022 and started just 12 games in 2021, his first season with New York, after tearing his hamstring just before the season.
