Diamondbacks Place Joakim Soria On 10-Day Injured List

By Mark Polishuk | April 6, 2021 at 3:49pm CDT

APRIL 6: The Diamondbacks announced that they have placed Soria on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 5, with a left calf strain. They recalled righty Matt Peacock in a corresponding move.

APRIL 4: Diamondbacks reliever Joakim Soria left Sunday’s game after four batters due to injury, with manager Torey Lovullo telling reporters (including Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic) that the team’s initial thought is a possible calf strain.  More will be known once Soria undergoes tests tomorrow.

The injury occurred while Soria was covering first base during the second out of the eighth inning.  After retiring the first two batters he faced, a clearly bothered Soria then issued two walks before being removed from the game.  Kevin Ginkel came on to record the final out of the frame, and Chris Devenski then pitched the ninth to lock up a 3-1 Arizona victory over the Padres.

It was a sour ending to Soria’s very first appearance in a D’Backs uniform.  The right-hander signed a one-year, $3.5MM free agent deal in February, joining fellow veteran reliever Tyler Clippard as the Diamondbacks’ biggest expenditures during an overall pretty quiet offseason for the team.  However, Clippard has already been sent to the 60-day IL due to a capsule strain in his shoulder, and now Soria might also miss time if he has indeed suffered at least a moderate calf injury.

Devenski and (by only 11 days of service time) Yoan Lopez are the only other relievers with more than two years of MLB experience within a young D’Backs bullpen.  Minor league signings Anthony Swarzak and Ryan Buchter are both available at the alternate training site if the Snakes want to add another veteran arm to replace an injured Soria.

    For a non-contact sport, there sure are a lot of injuries.

    Sunday night and the baseball news reads like NFL injury reports after the games concluded.

      Basketball is also a non-contact sport and has more injuries than the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLS.

      Better change the rules so pitchers aren’t allowed to field ground balls or cover bases.

    When will we quit making pitchers cover their positions since they can get injured doing so?

    I was listening on the radio because the current RSN situation with streaming services is a mess, but SD’s radio broadcast team made it seem like Soria wasn’t being pulled due to injury.

    Obviously I couldn’t see what he looked like throwing to those batters or watch how he was pulled from the game, but they mentioned that the trainer had checked him out, then they let him stay in so it looked like when he came out two batters later that they wanted the unlimited warm up time for their next relief pitcher more so than that he was injured.

    Honestly don’t know anything about his medical status, just thought it was interesting that the other team’s broadcast had such a different perspective.
