Matt Belisle has been placed on the 15-Day DL with a right calf strain and the Washington Nationals announced this morning that they recalled left-handed reliever Sammy Solis from Triple-A Syracuse.
Neither Dusty Baker or Washington Nationals' reliever Matt Belisle speculated after last night's loss about whether the right calf strain Belisle suffered during his eighth inning appearances against the Philadelphia Phillies would lead to the 35-year-old landing on the Disabled List.
"RIght now he's being evaluated. He has a mild [right] calf strain and we're trying to decide the severity of it,' Baker said.
Belisle couldn't say if the calf issue, which he said was similar to a strain he suffered while preparing for the season this winter, would force him to the DL.
