Brewers' Chris Capuano: Dealing with elbow inflammation
Capuana's elbow injury is currently being classified as elbow inflammation, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.Capuana initially felt the pain in his elbow during is May 20 outing, and felt it again after pitching against the Braves on Wednesday. It is a bit troublesome to hear that the left-hander experienced the same sensation during his second Tommy John recovery, although he did say no tests thus far have pointed toward ligament damage. He'll likely take some anti-inflammatories in the coming days and possibly even undergo an MRI when the club returns to Milwaukee, but it seems that Capuana has avoided a major injury this time around.

Capuana was placed on the 15-day disabled list Thursday due to left elbow soreness.It's unclear when the ailment cropped up, as he was able to finish the lone inning he threw in during Wednesday's contest. The left-hander has undergone two Tommy John surgeries during his career, so naturally there is some concern over this ailment, but it's currently unclear what the problem actually is this time around. A clearer timetable should become available once the severity of this injury is determined. Right-hander David Goforth was recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs to take his place in the Milwaukee Brewers bullpen.
