2 years agoThe Tampa Bay Rays placed closer Andrew Kittredge (elbow) on the 15-day injured list on Thursday with right elbow discomfort and recalled right-hander Calvin Faucher from Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move. Kittredge's injured list placement is retroactive to June 8. The 32-year-old right-hander has five saves and a solid 3.15 ERA in 20 relief innings as the Rays closer this year, but he could miss extended time this time around. It remains to be seen how Tampa will handle ninth-inning closing duties in his absence, with Colin Poche, Jason Adam and Brooks Raley all possibilities to see save chances in the near future.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
