Orioles place SP Zach Eflin on 15-Day IL

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Zach Eflin has been placed on the 15-day injured list after leaving Tuesday’s game in the fourth inning with elbow discomfort.

The team is hopeful the injury is minor — possibly tendinitis — but is concerned about the possibility of Tommy John surgery. The Orioles have selected pitcher Albert Suárez from Triple-A and are expected to lean on Dean Kremer to fill the void in the rotation.
