Wesneski pitched four innings, allowing four runs, in Tuesday’s 4-3 loss to Milwaukee. This was his first start since April 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Astros had skipped Wesneski’s previous start in the rotation after he showed a decrease in velocity, but manager Joe Espada reported that he didn’t report any elbow discomfort until Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He called (athletic trainer Jeremiah Randall) and said his elbow hurt. We decided to put him on the injured list to make sure he gets back on the mound healthy.<\/p>Joe Espada<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Wesneski, 27, was acquired by Houston in the Kyle Tucker trade with the Chicago Cubs in December. He is 1-3 with a 4.50 ERA in six starts with the Astros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wesneski missed two months of last season due to elbow discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Astros called up right-handed pitcher Logan VanWey from Triple-A Sugar Land to take Wesneski’s place on the 26-man roster, but Espada said the team will likely call up another starting pitcher as they begin a 17-game road trip on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
