LJay Newsome Lands on Injured List
4 years agoSeattle Mariners pitcher Ljay Newsome (elbow) landed on the 10-day injured list Sunday. Newsome has been diagnosed with "right elbow inflammation." JT Chargois was called up to the majors from the taxi squad to take his place on the roster. The injury popped up during Saturday night's contest with the Texas Rangers. The team was counting on Newsome to pitch multiple innings, but instead he was only able to complete one, allowing three runs in the process. Newsome can be dropped in all leagues, and the biggest fantasy question now is who will get the vacated innings for the Mariners. They've been committed to a six-man rotation, but are currently down James Paxton, Marco Gonzales, and now Newsome. Perhaps top pitching prospect Logan Gilbert's timeline could be moved up.
