Zack Greinke goes on DL, won't pitch again until after All-Star break

Zack Greinke won't pitch again until after the All-Star break. The Diamondbacks placed their ace right-hander on the 15-day disabled list on Sunday.

Turns out, Greinke's injured left oblique muscle injury is worse than thought. That was confirmed in an MRI exam on Saturday, team officials said. The move was made retroactive to June 30.
