Hunter Harvey: Breaking News
Out with triceps inflammation
The Cubs placed Harvey on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right triceps inflammation, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports. It's unclear when exactly Harvey sustained the injury, but he hasn't pitched since firing a scoreless inning Wednesday in Tampa Bay. He's without an official timeline for his return but will be eligible to be reinstated in late April.
Takes first loss Friday
Harvey (0-1) allowed three runs on two hits and a walk while retiring just two batters in relief to take the loss Friday against the Guardians. Both of the hits Harvey allowed left the yard, as he served up a solo home run to Gabriel Arias and a two-run shot to Chase DeLauter in the seventh inning in an eventual 4-1 defeat for the Cubs. The righty reliever had tossed 2.1 scoreless frames across his first two appearances with his new team, but Friday was a step backward. Harvey should be able to rebound, and he's still positioned as a key setup arm in Chicago ahead of closer Daniel Palencia.
