Rays Place Yonny Chirinos On Injured List

By Connor Byrne | August 19, 2020 at 5:42pm CDT

The Rays have placed right-hander Yonny Chirinos on the injured list with strain in his pitching elbow, per Juan Toribio of MLB.com. The team recalled righty Aaron Slegers from its taxi squad to take Chirinos’ place.

It’s always troubling when a pitcher goes down with an arm injury, especially considering Chirinos just came from an IL stint by a triceps issue. Chirinos spent the minimum amount of time on the shelf then, but it’s unclear how long he’ll need to return from this injury.

Chirinos was a productive swingman for the Rays from 2018-19, a 44-appearance, 25-start span in which he combined for a 3.71 ERA/4.07 FIP with 7.63 K/9 and 2.14 BB/9 in 223 innings. He has only been able to throw 11 frames in three starts this year, but the bottom-line production (2.38 ERA, 7.94 K/9 and 3.18 BB/9) has been palatable again.

Including Chirinos, the Rays – known for thinking outside the box – have already used eight different pitchers to start games this season. The 15-9 club could get one of its “traditional” starters, the injured Charlie Morton, back this weekend.

    Yonny Chirinos is one of the underrated guys who I feel do not get nearly enough credit. Sad to see him go down, because he has some nasty stuff, and is just fun to watch.

    for some reason with how f’ed up every thing is that the rays win the east and make a strong showing in oct. can nyy replace key players if the hit i’ll like tampa can. it’s not like it’s a full 162 and struck good on a few unknowns or under the radar guys last season but can they repeat that when guys like judge stanton tanaka or cold hit the il. this year almost any il stint in “season” ending
