Putz goes on the DL (1 Viewer)

Didn't even hear anything about an injury.

Mariners placed RHP J.J. Putz on the 15-day disabled list with mild costochondritis on his right side.Costochondritis is inflammation where cartilage attaches to a rib. The Mariners said Putz felt discomfort on a pitch to Michael Young in the ninth inning last night and had a precautionary MRI today. They don't have any idea how long he'll be out, but it's an awfully unusual injury that could take more than the minimum 15 days. Mark Lowe is the obvious choice to close in his place, though since the Mariners will want to be careful with him, they might give the odd save chance to Sean Green or Eric O'Flaherty. Brandon Morrow wasn't the choice to replace Putz on the roster and simply isn't an option in the closer's role right now. Lowe should be picked up in all formats.

I have Lackey for $11, Kazmir at $14, and Putz at $9 - all as keepers going into this season. $34 worth of talent that should produce double that......if they could !#$@#$ stay off the DL :rant: :rant: :rant:

 
Mark Lowe's the guy you want, he won't be the guy tonight if the situation presents itself because he's pitched back to back nights but beginning Friday he should be it.
