Triston McKenzie Moved To 60-Day Injured List
1 year agoThe Cleveland Guardians moved starting pitcher Triston McKenzie (elbow) to the 60-day injured list on Thursday to make room on the 40-man roster for pitcher Chris Vallimont, who was acquired in a trade with the Baltimore Orioles for cash considerations. McKenzie is still hoping to return this year, but he's been shut down an additional three weeks from throwing and will not be eligible to return until the middle of August. Even if the 25-year-old right-hander avoids any more setbacks, the best bet is that he won't return for Cleveland until September. It's been tough on fantasy managers that invested in McKenzie after his 2022 breakout season, as he's only made two starts so far in 2023 due to injuries.
