Astros Pitching Woes Continue with Garcia's Injury

The Houston Astros have placed right-handed pitcher Luis Garcia on the 15-day injured list due to elbow discomfort, with lefty Matt Gage called up from Triple-A in his place. Fellow right-hander Jose Urquidy will be shut down from throwing for 10 days due to inflammation near his shoulder and armpit, but he doesn't believe the injury to be serious.
