Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Chris Archer (hip) might miss his next scheduled start against the Chicago Cubs, general manager Neal Huntington said.
"With the All-Star break, there’s a chance to get him a good, long downtime, if necessary — 10 days to two weeks," Huntington explained. Archer was lifted from Friday's start against the Milwaukee Brewers due to left hip discomfort after throwing 67 pitches. Dario Agrazal was mentioned as a possible replacement for Wednesday if Archer is ruled out.
Archer owns a 5.50 ERA and 1.46 WHIP with 80 strikeouts and 38 walks in 73 2/3 innings (14 starts) this season.
