CHICAGO (AP) — Left-hander A.J. Puk was put on the 15-day injured list by the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday with left elbow inflammation.
Puk has four saves in eight games with Arizona this season, going 0-0 with a 3.38 ERA. He’s 17-20 with a 3.53 ERA and 26 saves in 212 games over a six-year career with three teams.
Puk’s IL move was retroactive to Friday. He had Tommy John surgery in 2018.
Arizona shuffled its bullpen, recalling right-hander Drey Jameson from Reno and selecting the contracts of righties J.P. Feyereisen and Juan Morillo from their Triple-A farm team ahead of a game against the Chicago Cubs.
Infielder Grae Kessinger was designated for assignment.
Arizona optioned left-hander Joe Mantiply and right-hander Bryce Jarvis to Reno following Friday’s 13-11 loss at Chicago.
Jameson was 0-0 with a 2.70 ERA in seven games with Reno. He pitched in 19 games in the majors in 2022 and 2023 with the Diamondbacks, going 6-1 with a 2.63 ERA.
Feyereisen was 1-0 with a 0.96 ERA and seven games with Reno. The 32-year-old is 8-5 with a 2.95 ERA for his career in the majors with three teams over four seasons.
Morillo is 0-0 with a 1.42 ERA in six games with Reno. He appeared in nine major league games with Colorado and Minnesota with no record and a 13.5O ERA.
