The Diamondbacks placed right-hander Randall Delgado on the 10-day disabled list Sunday with right elbow inflammation, a potentially significant blow for a team that has leaned heavily on Delgado throughout the season for his versatility.
Taking his place on the roster is right-hander J.J. Hoover, who was reinstated from the DL after missing about three weeks with a shoulder issue.
Delgado’s situation was not announced until after manager Torey Lovullo had already conducted his pregame session with reporters. Delgado was seen in street clothes and appeared to be preparing to leave SunTrust Park, perhaps to return to Phoenix to undergo tests.
But, clearly, an issue with any pitcher’s elbow is a troubling development. For most of the season’s first 3 1/2 months, Degaldo had been a key piece to the club’s pitching puzzle. He began the year in the bullpen then shifted to the rotation before returning to a relief role, making another spot start in between.
Delgado gave up four runs in two-thirds of an inning on Saturday against the Braves.
This marks just the second time in Delgado’s career he has been placed on the disabled list, and the first time due to arm problems. He missed time two years ago with an ankle injury.
Hoover posted a 1.69 ERA through his first 13 appearances, but was less reliable in the weeks prior to going on the DL, logging a 6.23 ERA in his final 18 games. Opponents are hitting .303 off him and he’s walking 6.5 per nine, though he is striking out 13.7 per nine.
He made two rehab appearances in the minors, tossing a scoreless inning in the rookie-level Arizona League and giving up a run on two hits in Low-A Kane County.
Mr. Clutch
It came as little surprise that Daniel Descalso delivered a big hit on Saturday night, coming off the bench to shoot a run-scoring single to right in the sixth inning.
Descalso has been a consistent performer in key situations for the Diamondbacks this season, in particular with runners in scoring position, a split in which he was 14 for 51 (.333) with three doubles and two homers entering Sunday. Throughout his career, Descalso has performed better with runners in scoring position than he has in other situations.
“I don’t really tell myself anything different (when hitting in those spots),” he said. “I think it’s really important to make sure you get a good pitch to hit there. You can’t be in a rush to try to drive that guy in or tell yourself, ‘I have to drive that guy in.’ You have to go up there and get a good pitch to hit and don’t miss it.”
Descalso has continued to perform in those situations at a time when many of his teammates have not. The Diamondbacks have been slumping badly when hitting in key spots. They entered Sunday hitting .173 with runners in scoring position in the past 13 games.
“As a hitter, you have to go up there and focus on having a good at-bat,” he said. “If you don’t get anything to hit, you take your walk and give it to the next guy. For a while there, we were doing a really good job of that. It seems like we haven’t been doing quite as good a job of that (lately). When we do hit balls hard with guys in scoring position right now, they seem to be getting caught, too. So that doesn’t help, either.”
Short hops
- Right-hander Rubby De La Rosa (shoulder inflammation) threw a scoreless inning in the Arizona League on Saturday, striking out the side in his first appearance on a rehab assignment.
- Lovullo’s son, Nick, was promoted to Double-A Portland in the Boston Red Sox organization on Saturday. Nick Lovullo, a 20th round pick last year out of Holy Cross, had split time between Low-A Greenville and High-A Salem this season.
