Taylor Widener - Page 6 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Returns to injured list Widener was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a strained right groin.

Impact Widener appeared to have been activated from the injured list too soon and will once again be sidelined after aggravating the injury in Sunday's start. The groin issue has limited the righty to just five starts this season, but he does have an impressive 2.63 ERA (albeit with a 5.01 FIP) in that small, 24-inning sample.

Dealing with right groin discomfort Widener was removed from Sunday's start against the Rockies with right groin discomfort, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact The Diamondbacks reinstated Widener from the 10-day injured list ahead of Sunday's series finale, but the right-hander may not have been 100 percent recovered from the groin strain that had kept him on the shelf since April 22. Arizona likely will provide an update on Widener after the contest, but if he did in fact aggravate the groin injury, another stint on the IL could be in the forecast.

Widener was off to a strong start before the injury with a 2.82 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 18:6 K:BB over 22.1 innings, and he'll attempt to pick up where he left off Sunday.
