Nicolino was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a blood blister on his left index finger, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.
As expected, Nicolino was sent to the disabled list to clear room on the roster for Jeff Locke, who is scheduled to start against the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Nicolino will be eligible to return June 10, though it's unclear if he'll be ready to rejoin the rotation at that point. With the 25-year-old set to miss at least one start while on the disabled list, the Marlins could turn to Vance Worley or call-up Adam Conley from Triple-A New Orleans to take Nicolino's turn in the rotation.
