By juan

Here’s a running list of injury updates around the Major Leagues:

– Rockies left fielder Carlos Gonzalez left yesterday’s game with left groin tightness according to Jerry Crasnick of ESPN.com. Gonzalez injured himself while chasing down a fly ball at Citizens Bank Park.

– The Dodgers have placed Vicente Padilla on the Disabled List with a sore right forearm reports Matthew Pouliot of NBCSports.com. Padilla had to undergo elbow surgery late in February to free up a nerve that was entrapped in his forearm.

David Murphy of the Philadelphia Daily News tweets that Joe Blanton was scratched from yesterday’s start. Blanton apparently experienced elbow soreness while warming up prior to today’s game.

– Blue Jays manager, John Farrell, says that Adam Lind is at least ten days away from coming off the Disabled List reports John Lott of the National Post.

– According to Jeff Zrebiec of the Baltimore Sun, there is a “very legit possibility” that Brian Roberts goes to the Disabled List.
