SEATTLE (AP) -Reigning National League Cy Young Award winner Jake Peavy will miss his scheduled start on Monday for the San Diego Padres, bothered by soreness in his pitching elbow.
Peavy, who is 4-3 with a 2.91 ERA this season, said he’s been bothered by the discomfort in his elbow for his last three or four starts and it’s beyond the normal soreness he feels after his starts. He has lost three of his last four decisions, and lasted just four innings last Wednesday against the Cubs.
Peavy will have an MRI on Monday morning after the team returns to San Diego. Left-hander Wil Ledezma will get the start on Monday night when the Padres host St. Louis.
