Jameson Taillon Placed on 10-Day DL by Pirates with Groin Injury

Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Jameson Taillon is on the disabled list after suffering a groin injury.

The Pirates announced Taillon had been placed on the 10-day DL with groin discomfort and purchased Josh Lindblom's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis.

The move is retroactive to Thursday, which makes Taillon eligible to return on May 14. He had his worst start of the season on May 3 when he allowed six earned runs on eight hits in five innings against the Cincinnati Reds.

After being the No. 2 overall pick in 2010, behind Bryce Harper, Taillon made his MLB debut in 2016.
