Chicago White Sox Place Reliever Joe Kelly on 15-Day IL

As MLB.com reports, the Chicago White Sox have placed relief pitcher Joe Kelly on the 15-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

In a subsequent move, the team has recalled left-hander Tanner Banks from Class AAA Charlotte.

Kelly suffered the injury in Wednesday’s 3-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox and is likely looking at a return date of around mid-June.

It’s another setback for the 33-year-old, who missed four weeks earlier in the season with a right biceps strain.

After inking a two-year, $17 million deal with Chicago in the offseason, Kelly has thrown just 5.
