ATLANTA (AP) The Philadelphia Phillies have placed reliever Juan Nicasio on the 10-day injured list with a strained left groin.
Manager Gabe Kapler says Nicasio’s strain is ”pretty mild.” Kapler says Nicasio needed the break because the right-hander also has been feeling tightness in his quadriceps.
Nicasio gave up three runs while recording only one out in Wednesday night’s 9-2 loss to the Atlanta Braves . He has a 5.24 ERA with one save in 32 games.
Left-hander Austin Davis was recalled from Triple-A Lehigh Valley and arrived before Thursday night’s game against Atlanta.
Right-hander Seranthony Dominguez, out since June 6 due to an UCL injury in his right elbow, could return after the All-Star break. Kapler says the outlook for Dominguez is promising after an exam on Wednesday ”went really well.”
