Dodgers News: Jimmy Nelson Heads to Injured List with an Elbow Issue

Another day, another roster move for the defending world champion Los Angeles Dodgers. About an hour before first pitch on Wednesday, the club announced that right-hander Jimmy Nelson is heading to the injured list with elbow inflammation. In a corresponding move, lefty Darien Nunez rejoins the active roster after about a week with Triple-A OKC.

The Dodgers recalled LHP Darien Núñez and placed RHP Jimmy Nelson on the injured list with right elbow inflammation.
