James Paxton Placed On Injured List
4 years agoSeattle Mariners starting pitcher James Paxton (forearm) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left forearm strain. He sustained the injury in the second inning of Tuesday night's game against the White Sox, and MRI results are still pending. In his place, Ljay Newsome was called up from the alternate site. He will slot into the bullpen, and Nick Margevicius will take Paxton's place in the rotation. Paxton is a fantasy hold for now, but fantasy managers should brace for a potentially lengthy absence from the oft-injured left-hander.
