The Dodgers announced that they have placed Adrian Gonzalez on the 10-day Disabled List with lower back discomfort. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers have reinstated Joc Pederson from the 7-day DL (retroactive to 6/12).
Adrian Gonzalez who had never been on the DL in his career before this season will go on the DL for the second time this season. Gonzalez left Sunday’s game when his back tightened up during one of his at-bats and was scheduled to have an MRI on Monday.
Gonzalez had just returned from a forearm injury that slowed his start to the 2017 season and seemed to get more comfortable at the plate as the games progressed.
