Reds' Anthony DeSclafani out indefinitely with strained oblique

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani is dealing with a strained oblique, an MRI revealed.

What It Means:

DeSclafani felt discomfort during a start on Friday and there currently isn't a timetable for his return but it sounds like the 27-year-old right-hander will likely be opening the year on the Reds' disabled list.

numberFire's models project DeSclafani to record a 4.52 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and 19.9 strikeout percentage across 145 1/3 innings while going 11-10 this season.
