Padres Pitcher Michael King Lands on 15-Day IL with Knee Inflammation

San Diego Padres right-hander Michael King has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to left knee inflammation, with the move made retroactive to Monday. King, who holds a 4-2 record with a 2.81 ERA over 11 starts this season, was originally scheduled to start Friday's series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers. This marks his second stint on the IL, having just returned on August 9th after being sidelined since May 18th with shoulder inflammation.
