Bob Melvin, manager of the San Diego Padres, reported on the situation of Yu Darvish, who was on the injured list that day.
In an interview ahead of an away game against the St. Louis Cardinals held at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri on the 29th (hereafter referred to as Korean time), Melvin spoke about Darvish, who was on the injured list due to inflammation of the elbow.안전놀이터
“I have inflammation,” said Melvin, who said, “I thought it would be better not to overdo it. It remains to be seen how many times he simply skips selection. I am currently diagnosing. He is gathering more information.”
Darvish is 8-10 with a 4.56 ERA in 136 1/3 innings in 24 games this season.
In his last three games, he has been sluggish with 13 runs in 16 innings (7.31 earned run average). In particular, in an away game against the Milwaukee Brewers on the 26th, he recorded 6 hits, 1 home run, 1 walk, 3 strikeouts and 5 runs in 4 innings.
“If you’ve seen him lately, you’ve seen him break his arm during the mound,” Melvin said. In the previous pitching, it was seen a little more often. He felt that forcing the mound wasn’t the right thing to do. The next day he felt more pain than usual.”
He said that he hoped that the listing and examination of the injured would not be serious, saying, “I hope that it was taken care of in advance.”
Darvish was scheduled to start the last game of the series on the 31st, but he was unable to do so due to being placed on the injured list.
Manager Melvin announced that left-hander Rich Hill would start instead.
The San Diego Padres on this day had Kim Ha-sung (2nd baseman) Juan Soto (left fielder) Manny Machado (3rd baseman) Fernando Tatis Jr. (right fielder) Zander Bogaerts (shortstop) Garrett Cooper (1st baseman) Matt Carpenter (designated hitter) Gary Sanchez (catcher) Trent Grisham. (Center fielder) announced the lineup. With Jake Cronenworth out with an injury, Carpenter got his chance.
Melvin said, “Carpenter was preparing hard every day,” and mentioned that Carpenter, who did not get many opportunities to play, got a good opportunity.
