Right-handed pitcher Cole Sulser will go on the 15-day injured list retroactive to Thursday as the Arizona Diamondbacks replace him in the bullpen by recalling Luis Frias from Triple-A Reno.
Sulser, who is listed with a strained right shoulder, allowed three earned runs over 4.1 innings pitched in three appearances through Arizona’s 3-4 start.
Those runs earned included two home runs allowed in two games at the Los Angeles Dodgers last Thursday and Saturday.
The 33-year-old Sulser has three walks to four strikeouts.
