Webb's pitching elbow is sore and needs rest. Dustin Nippert is expected to start in his place, the rookie's first appearance since a spot start ended after five innings and six runs June 7. The Diamondbacks seem convinced Webb's injury isn't serious. Imaging tests earlier this week revealed their sinkerball ace suffered from a flexor tendon strain, an irritating condition head athletic trainer Ken Crenshaw said is improving daily. If the club keeps him off the disabled list, Webb's next start could come Friday against the Marlins. General Manager Josh Byrnes spoke with the team's medical staff Friday, but wanted to wait before deciding on Webb's next outing. "Obviously, this is a guy we can't be too careful with," manager Bob Melvin said. "He wants to pitch and feels like he can, but as long as there is soreness in there, we're going to go the extra yard to make sure he's healthy." Webb (12-4 with a 2.74 ERA) has been baseball's most durable pitcher, throwing 167 1/3 innings and three complete games. He's pitched fewer than six innings only once, a 10-hit performance against the Rangers on June 16. Despite the long innings, Webb's pitch count hasn't reached 120 all season. "Believe me," Melvin said, "he's one guy that we monitor very, very closely." Webb felt stiffness after his first post-All-Star Game start, a seven-inning stint against Milwaukee at Chase Field. He felt better five days later against the Dodgers, throwing eight innings, allowing two runs, but the pain resurfaced after his next two starts. "I've never had any elbow stiffness, so when this (started) I was a little worried," Webb said. "You know, everybody's always worried about Tommy John surgery and all that, so getting the MRI eased my mind." Webb threw a bullpen session Thursday and reported no pain, so he feels he should return soon, but he stopped short of saying he would miss only one start. == 看起來Webb也不敢很肯定的回答他在下次先發前回得來不過今年Webb的表現也真是夠嗆的了非常的可靠又非常耐用這個戰力的缺口是完全無法填補的... Melvin今年對於先發投手球數的監控做得非常好這點是值得肯定的但是陣中的先發並不如想像中的那麼好導致最後先發投手投不完的局數轉嫁到牛棚身上我們有輝煌傷病史的牛棚就很慘了... Lyon Aquino Koppy乃至現在在AAA調整的Valverde 這些人的傷病史實在是罄竹難書 XD Webb脫離戰線想必對這些人又是沉重的負擔尤其是Lyon... 我還是老話一句趕快把不能吃局數的Vargas交易掉吧... -- mittermeyer, PTT Diamondbacks BM, B/T:R/R, 5'11", 165lbs 球探報告：雖然長相曾被指出與某歌星相似，但在未找到合適髮型的情況下，在20至80分中只能拿45分至50分間。個性算是開朗，然而因缺乏自信而少能展現個人特質，不易受異性注意。在言語的表達上亦有問題，有時會因為腦殘而說出不得體的話，導致產生失敗的第一印象。善良的本性應該會讓他成為Career "Good-man" Leaguer。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.202.148
