Nathan Eovaldi Placed on 15-Day Injured List Due to Right Triceps Injury for Texas Rangers

Nathan Eovaldi's absence is significant for the Texas Rangers. He has played in 12 games with a 4-3 record this season. His impressive ERA of 1.56 and WHIP of 0.81 highlight his strong performance on the mound. His strikeout rate of 9.5 K/9 over 69 1/3 innings shows his ability to dominate opposing batters.

Before his placement on the injured list, Eovaldi was already dealing with triceps fatigue, which made him uncertain for his next start. The Rangers now face the St. Louis Cardinals at home without one of their key starting pitchers. This game could be a challenge as they adjust to playing without Eovaldi.
