Left-hander Martin Perez landed on the 10-day disabled list Monday afternoon with discomfort in his right elbow, a day after he finished only four innings in a loss to the Toronto Blue Jays.
Perez was largely ineffective, surrendering three home runs among the five hits he allowed, and he walked four. His velocity also dipped, though he said that was done intentionally.
Indeed, the Rangers have no concerns about his left elbow, general manager Jon Daniels said. But the right elbow, the one broken in December after a fall while dodging a charging bull in Venezuela, has been bothering Perez for at least past two starts.
