Pacheco (shoulder) was placed on the DL Tuesday, retroactive to June 3.
The 30-year-old catcher hasn't played a major league game since June 1 due to right shoulder tendinitis and it is now clear that the injury is severe enough to send him to the DL. He had been struggling mightily the month prior, going 4-for-36 (.111) with 13 strikeouts since Apr. 21 so some time off to recover physically and mentally could be exactly what he needs to get his season back on track.
