Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has been dealing with a right triceps issue, was moved to the 60-day injured list on Sunday. The Japanese right-hander won't be eligible to return before Aug. 16. The Dodgers activated right-hander Brent Honeywell, who was claimed off waivers from Pittsburgh, to the 40-man roster. 'Yamamoto thrown twice this past week,' manager Dave Roberts revealed Friday. 'He played catch out to 60 feet twice, and he’s supposed to play catch .
There been no soreness, no pain. So he’s in a good spot.' He began experiencing soreness in his right arm after throwing a career-high 106 pitches against the New York Yankees on June 7. He exited the Dodgers' June 15 game against the Kansas City Royals after just two innings. Yamamoto has gone 6-2 with a 2.92 ERA over 14 starts and 84 strikeouts in his first MLB season. The 25-year-old, who signed a 12-year, $325 million deal with the Dodgers this offseason, also boasts a 1.068 WHIP.
