Nestor Cortes Moved To 60-Day Injured List
11 seconds agoThe Milwaukee Brewers moved left-hander Nestor Cortes (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday to make room on the 40-man roster for right-handed reliever Craig Yoho. Cortes is dealing with a left-elbow flexor strain and received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his arm earlier this month. With the move to the 60-day IL, it means that the 30-year-old veteran southpaw won't be eligible to return to Milwaukee's starting rotation until June. He has yet to be cleared to resume throwing a baseball. In addition to his serious elbow injury, the Cuban hurler got off to a rough start in his time with the Brew Crew in two starts before going on the shelf, allowing eight earned runs on seven hits (five homers) while walking seven and striking out eight in eight innings. Cortes is not a must-hold in mixed fantasy leagues.
