C
IL-10
Overall
Summary
Kyle Farmer placed on 10-day injured list (backdated to May 16) with strained right forearm. No timetable for return established. Farmer was removed from the lineup to make room for Ronald Acuña Jr.'s activation from the IL. The severity of the forearm strain is uncertain - could be minor or may require extended imaging and recovery time.
Strengths
- Placed on 10-day IL rather than 15-day or 60-day, suggesting potentially shorter recovery window
- Forearm strain is typically less severe than structural injuries
