Twins place RHP Lopez (hamstring) on 15-day IL
Written by I Dig Sports
MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Twins placed pitcher Pablo López on the 15-day injured list Friday with a strained right hamstring.
The move is retroactive to Wednesday, a day after López was removed from his start against Kansas City following 4 innings because of the injury. López is 1-1 with a 1.62 ERA in three starts this season.
The Twins replaced him on the roster by recalling right-hander David Festa from Triple-A St. Paul. Festa, who will start for Minnesota on Friday night against Detroit, is 1-1 with a 5.40 ERA in two minor league starts this season.
Festa appeared in 14 games for the Twins last season, 13 of them starts, going 2-6 with a 4.90 ERA and 77 strikeouts in 64 innings.
