Manny on 15-day DL with calf strain

Published Jul. 21, 2010 1:22 a.m. ET

Manny Ramirez is back on the disabled list for the third time this season.

The Los Angeles Dodgers slugger has a strained right calf. Ramirez had been out since leaving Friday's game at St. Louis with tightness in his calf. The team made the move Tuesday.

Manager Joe Torre calls it a significant strain and says Ramirez could be out about three weeks.

Ramirez was hitless in three at-bats last Thursday against the Cardinals in his first game since returning from the DL with a strained right hamstring. He went on the DL for the first time from April 23-May 8 with a strained right calf, although the team says his current injury isn't the same as that one.
