Astros' Framber Valdez (elbow) placed on injured list
The Houston Astros placed starting pitcher Framber Valdez on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with left elbow inflammation.
What It Means:
Valdez was scratched from Monday's scheduled start versus the Texas Rangers due to left elbow soreness. Astros manager Joe Espada said Valdez will be shut down from throwing for a few days, so the lefty may need more than the minimum 15 days off.
Valdez is averaging 31.1 FanDuel points through two starts. He allowed 3 runs on 11 hits, with 10 strikeouts and 6 walks, across 12 1/3 innings.
