The Los Angeles Dodgers were hoping MLB veteran Cole Hamels could provide some help in their rotation down the stretch. Instead, they were only left with the bill.
The team announced Monday that it had placed Hamels on the 60-day injured list, effectively ending his season. According to MLB.com's Juan Toribio, Hamels experienced arm pain during a simulated inning on Monday.
The Dodgers selected the contract of RHP Neftalí Féliz, recalled RHP Andre Jackson and optioned LHP Darien Núñez and RHP Edwin Uceta to Triple-A. In order to make room on the 40-man roster, the Dodgers placed Cole Hamels on the 60-day injured list.
