PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) - The Pirates have placed pitcher Nick burdi on the 10-day injured list with right bicep/elbow pain.

The right hander fell to the ground after throwing a fastball to Diamondbacks hitter Jarrod Dyson in the eighth inning of Monday night’s 12-4 loss to Arizona.

Burdi had an MRA Tuesday Morning and the team is getting a second opinion.

A day after being sent to Triple-A Indianapolis to make room for Gregory Polanco’s return, pitcher Steven Brault once again joins the Bucs to take Burdi’s spot on the roster.
