Share Video
Eflin was removed from his start in Monday's 5-1 victory over the Diamondbacks due to right shoulder fatigue, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports. He picked up the win and allowed one run on four hits and struck out one over six innings prior to exiting.
Eflin was held to 73 pitches as a result of the shoulder issue, but he still managed to secure his second win of the campaign. Manager Brandon Hyde said after the game that the club will run further tests on the right-hander to determine the extent of the injury. Eflin noted that his removal was precautionary, and he's hopeful it isn't anything serious, per Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun. He tentatively lines up for his second start of the week Sunday versus the Blue Jays in Baltimore.
