We knew it was coming but just moments ago, the Detroit Tigers made it official and placed SP Eduardo Rodriguez on the 15-day IL with a left rib cage strain.
Rodriguez was injured in his last start and Tigers manager A.J. Hinch had all but confirmed that the injured list was in his future.
In a corresponding move, they have recalled Elvin Rodriguez, who is scheduled to start on Monday against the Minnesota Twins.
#Tigers have recalled RHP Elvin Rodriguez from Triple A Toledo, who is scheduled to start tomorrow in Minnesota.
Additionally, LHP Eduardo Rodriguez has been placed on the 15-day IL (retroactive to May 19) with a left ribcage sprain.
