 CHICAGO (AP) - Cubs right-hander Mark Prior was placed on the 15-day disabled list Saturday, one day after he was hit in the right elbow by a line drive. An MRI showed a compression fracture near the elbow, Cubs trainer Mark O'Neal said.
Prior, O'Neal and Cubs manager Dusty Baker would not speculate how long Prior, who has been on the disabled list five times since joining the Cubs in 2002, would be out.
Prior started this season on the disabled list with inflammation in the elbow, delaying his first start until April 13. In nine starts this year, he is 4-1 with a 2.93 ERA.
