RHP Domingo Acevedo was placed on the Double-A disabled list with a biceps injury, the team announced. Acevedo told Sean Miller he’s going for an MRI tomorrow. “During the week I felt excellent, and then this came out of nowhere. Most of the time you feel a little something in your arm, but this time it was getting worse, and I did not want to make it worse,” Acevedo said.
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (7-4 loss to Gwinnett)
- LF Mark Payton: 0-4, 3 K — ejected for arguing balls and strikes
- 1B Tyler Austin: 1-4, 1 K — with 1B Luke Voit on the way, I reckon Austin will see more time in the outfield going forward
- DH Mike Ford: 0-2 — also ejected for arguing balls and strikes … not a good day for the home plate umpire
- SS Abi Avelino: 1-4, 2 K
- LHP Nestor Cortes: 7 IP, 8 H, 7 R, 7 ER, 2 BB, 4 K, 2 HR, 5/10 GB/FB — 66 of 95 pitches were strikes (69%) … had to wear this one because the bullpen is short due to recent workloads and all the trades
- RHP Brody Koerner: 0.
