Zach Eflin - Placed on COVID-19 ILEflin (knee) was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Friday.
ImpactIt's not yet clear if he's tested positive for the virus. Eflin was already moved to the 10-day injured list earlier Friday due to right knee tendinitis, so him being added to the COVID-19 IL likely won't have a huge impact on his availability going forward. The right-hander underwent an MRI on his knee earlier Friday and is awaiting the results.
