The San Diego Padres have placed starting pitchers Joe Musgrove and Yu Darvish on the 15-day injured list. Musgrove is sidelined due to a recurrence of a triceps/elbow issue and right elbow inflammation that previously affected him, while Darvish is dealing with a left groin strain and hamstring injury. The injuries are not expected to be season-ending. Randy Vasquez and Logan Gillaspie have been recalled to fill in for the injured players. The Padres are now faced with the challenge of managing their pitching lineup, particularly for Tuesday's game, which was originally scheduled to be Darvish's next start.

Now official for Joe Musgrove. And, as had been forecast, Yu Darvish to the IL as well (hamstring). RHP Logan Gillaspie has been recalled. That will help this weekend. Padres have to figure out how to get through Tuesday’s game, which was Darvish’s next start. https://t.co/Ah2CJJPQlg
