Velasquez (elbow) was placed on the 10-day DL on Wednesday.
It was announced following Tuesday's game that Velasquez was DL-bound, and the move is now official. The right-hander saw a big dip in velocity from the first inning to the second inning Tuesday (from around 95 mph to the low-90s), which led to his removal after just 19 pitches. He was diagnosed with an elbow flexor strain, and while Velasquez says he's not worried, he did have Tommy John surgery in the past and a lengthy absence could be in store even if he avoids another surgery.
