Transferred to 60-day IL Llovera (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Llovera sustained a Grade 2 right flexor strain last week and will be unavailable for at least two months due to the injury. It's not yet known whether the Giants expect him to return for the final few weeks of the regular season, but the team signed Trevor Rosenthal (hamstring) to a one-year contract Thursday.

Placed on injured list Llovera was placed on the 15-day injured list with a Grade 2 right flexor strain Saturday.

Impact Llovera exited Friday's win over the Brewers after throwing 1.2 relief innings, and he'll be forced to miss at least two weeks after being diagnosed with a Grade 2 strain. A timetable for the right-hander's return isn't yet clear, but he isn't eligible to be activated until at least the end of July.

JULY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Departs with flexor strain Llovera was removed from Friday's win over the Brewers due to a flexor strain, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Llovera entered Friday's matchup in the top of the sixth inning and allowed no hits and a walk while striking out two in 1.2 innings. However, he was removed after throwing 31 pitches. He'll undergo further testing to determine the extent of his injury, but Jakob Junis (hamstring) is a candidate to return Saturday if the Giants need a bulk reliever.

JULY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Departs Friday's contest Llovera was removed from Friday's game against the Brewers with an unspecified injury, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Llovera delivered 1.2 scoreless innings before leaving with the training staff during the seventh inning. The right-hander should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

JULY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Called up again by Giants Llovera was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

Impact Llovera has already gone up-and-down several times this season, and the Giants decided to bring up back once more. As he did before, he will provide depth in San Francisco's bullpen.

JULY 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to minors The Giants optioned Llovera to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Llovera will lose his spot on the 26-man active roster after the Giants reinstated Alex Cobb (neck) from the 15-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Sunday against the Pirates. During his week-long stay in the big leagues, Llovera tossed a scoreless inning in both of his relief appearances.

JUNE 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back in big leagues Llovera was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento prior to Monday's game against Kansas City.

Impact Llovera has appeared in nine games for the Giants in 2022, putting together a 5.87 ERA and 1.57 WHIP with a 9:2 K:BB across 7.2 frames. Heliot Ramos was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

JUNE 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Llovera was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact After being called up May 16, Llovera appeared in five games, pitching 3.2 innings while giving up four runs on seven hits and two walks with four strikeouts. He will now return to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday and wait for another shot to prove himself in the big-leagues.

MAY 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to big leagues Llovera was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Giants will add a fresh arm to the bullpen in Llovera, who hasn't appeared for San Francisco in just over 10 days. Through four appearances in 2022, he's allowed one run on three hits and struck out five over four innings of relief work.

MAY 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Llovera was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact He will likely be back up in short order after giving up one run on three hits and zero walks while striking out five over four innings -- all in the past calendar week. Sean Hjelle will take a spot in the big-league bullpen.

MAY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Clean inning as opener Llovera struck out one in a perfect inning and did not factor in the decision in Thursday's loss to the Cardinals.

Impact Llovera was tabbed as the opener for the contest, and he handled the assignment well. The 26-year-old has yet to work more than an inning in any of his four appearances this season, so he shouldn't be expected to be in the mix for wins if he opens more games later in the year. He has a 2.25 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 5:0 K:BB across four innings.

MAY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting bullpen game Llovera will start Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Llovera has allowed one run over three innings since being promoted from Triple-A Sacramento on April 29, and he'll receive his first major-league start Thursday. He's likely to cover an inning or two with the Giants going with a bullpen game in the series opener.

MAY 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Promoted to majors Llovera's contract was selected from Triple-A Sacramento prior to Friday's game against the Nationals, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact The Giants have multiple relievers on the COVID-19 injured list, so Llovera will provide reinforcements for the bullpen. He struck out 14 and walked two over 10.2 scoreless innings through six appearances at Triple-A this season.

APRIL 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Lands with Giants Llovera signed a minor-league contract with the Giants on Friday.

Impact Llovera spent most of the season at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2021 and logged a 3.46 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 52 innings across 32 appearances (four starts). He'll now attempt to carve out a role with the Giants, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him serve as a non-roster invitee this spring.

Wheeler scheduled to start for Phillies at Nationals

AUGUST 30, 2021 • Associated Press

Designated for assignment Llovera was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Friday.

Impact Llovera has allowed seven earned runs on 10 hits (five home runs) and four walks across 6.2 innings this season, so Friday's move comes as little surprise. He'll be placed on waivers for the time being, but it's very possible he goes unclaimed given his underwhelming season to this point.

Realmuto, Hoskins help streaking Phils rally past Nats 7-6

AUGUST 6, 2021 • Associated Press

Back with big club Llovera was recalled from Triple-A Lehigh Valley prior to Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Llovera will rejoin the Philadelphia bullpen after elbow tendinitis forced Connor Brogdon to the injured list Tuesday. Llovera has made two previous big-league appearances this season, allowing one run on two hits and three walks across three innings.

AUGUST 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped to minors Llovera was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.

Impact Llovera had been with the team since Tuesday, allowing one run in two innings of work Thursday against Atlanta in his lone appearance. He'll make way for Alec Bohm to return from the COVID-19 injured list.
