Padres Place Brandon Drury On Seven-Day Injured List
2 years agoThe San Diego Padres placed infielder Brandon Drury (head) on the seven-day concussion injured list on Monday and activated catcher Jorge Alfaro (knee) from the injured list in a corresponding move. Drury left the game early last Friday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers after getting hit in the head, and he'll now miss at least the next week. His IL stint is retroactive to Sept. 3. If he avoids any setbacks, Drury will be eligible to return this weekend in another series against the Dodgers. Alfaro went 4-for-15 with two home runs on a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso, but he's not back in the Padres lineup on Monday against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Now that he's healthy, the 29-year-old backstop will split catching duties with Austin Nola.
