Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Taijuan Walker (shoulder) has been shut down from throwing for six weeks.
Walker was working himself back from Tommy John surgery last summer but will not be out longer after suffering a right capsule strain. If he can avoid future setbacks, Walker could be back in the big leagues for the final months of the season.
Walker was projected for 67 2/3 innings pitched with 52 strikeouts and a 4.64 ERA this season before the latest injury news.
