WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Colorado Rockies placed pitcher Kyle Freeland on the 15-day injured list Monday because of a pinched nerve.<\/p>\n
The left-hander left his start Wednesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers after 3 2\/3 innings when he felt pain going from his neck down to his fingers. Colorado manager Warren Schaeffer said Freeland felt better Thursday, and the team\u2019s initial plan was to avoid an IL stint.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe went to throw a bullpen yesterday, and it didn\u2019t go well,\u201d Schaeffer said. \u201cShoulder didn\u2019t feel right, so we have to put him on the IL.\u201d<\/p>\n
The move was made retroactive to Friday.<\/p>\n
Freeland is 4-10 with a 6.37 ERA in 23 starts. He leads Colorado in both strikeouts (103) and innings pitched (124 1\/3).<\/p>\n
The Rockies selected the contract of right-hander Blake Adams from Triple-A Albuquerque to take Freeland\u2019s roster spot. Adams is 2-5 with an 8.10 ERA in 17 games with Albuquerque.<\/p>\n
