Anthony DeSclafani Placed on Injured List with Thumb Inflammation

Right-hander Anthony DeSclafani has been placed on the 15-day injured list by the Diamondbacks due to right thumb inflammation. Primarily a reliever, DeSclafani had made three starts this month, accumulating an 0-1 record with a 5.59 ERA over 9⅔ innings, including two runs over three innings in his last outing on Tuesday night. The team recalled Casey Kelly from Triple-A Reno, and manager Torey Lovullo hopes for a minimal absence, with imaging planned to assess the injury.
