Marcum placed on 15-day DL with right elbow inflammation. Subsequent move not announced.

Ugh not good. I'm guessing Rzep comes up? Please not Tallet

Damn. Well so much for the idea of trading him.

Might be an opportunity to sign him to a more attractive contract extension.

This news makes me want to sign him to an extension even less than I already did.

Man, I knew it was too good to be true for him to stay healthy for 200+ innings this season. Oh well. I doubt the Jays were going to move him this month anyway. Maybe they'll consider it in the off-season.

He IS coming off of a fair bit of rehab, a setback is not all that unexpected. At least we're being proactive about it. I'd be comfortable with him missing a bunch of time and then coming back in August or whatever, so that he's healthier long-term.

At least it's just his elbow, which is probably just a product of throwing him out there for 100+ pitches every game, straight out of the gate. Sore shoulder and we're screwed.

Nice to see Scrabble back up in the majors. I'm 100% behind giving Marcum some rest at this point.
