The Dodgers placed left-handed reliever Paco Rodriguez on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with a strained pitching elbow, according to an ESPN.com report.
Rodriguez has been feeling some discomfort for several days, manager Don Mattingly said, and will travel back to Los Angeles to consult with team physician Neal ElAttrache.
Two days after making his first appearance of the season, A's closer Sean Doolittle was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left shoulder.
"It's another muscle, almost under the armpit, that he strained,'' A's manager Bob Melvin said before Saturday's game with the Yankees. "It will be a couple of weeks of inactivity before he picks up a baseball.''
They Brewers lost another regular when left fielder Khris Davis left Milwaukee's loss to the Diamondbacks on Saturday after taking an awkward swing while striking out in the first inning. A frustrated Davis said after the game that he will need surgery Tuesday for a torn meniscus in his right knee.
Asked how tough a season it has been for the team, Davis responded with just two words.
"The worst," he said.
The Nationals placed Stephen Strasburg on the 15-day disabled list Saturday, one day after the right-hander left his start after only 16 pitches due to neck stiffness.

Masahiro Tanaka is expected to start for the New York Yankees against the Seattle Mariners next week after missing nearly five weeks.

Joe Girardi says he'll likely take the mound on Wednesday or Thursday.
"We'll have a heart-to-heart talk with him, how he feels about where he's at," Girardi said. "You don't want someone going out there if they don't quite feel that they're ready to go. In a perfect world, he would start somewhere in Seattle."
The New York Mets have insurance on David Wright's contract that will cover 75 percent of the money he is owed for the time he misses due to injury once he is sidelined for 60 or more days.
Wright is owed $20 million this season, which means the Mets could recover a significant amount of money if spinal stenosis keeps him out for a few months.
He was initially sidelined in mid-April by a hamstring injury.
David Wright will travel to California to see a back specialist in an effort to gain clarity on the back issue that has kept him out of the lineup.
Wright will meet with Dr. Robert Watkins and his staff of physical therapists in California to seek treatment for the back pain and spinal stenosis that he kept him from playing for the New York Mets, according to Sandy Alderson.
He will spend a week with the specialist and his staff and that the Mets hope to get further clarity on Wright's status in the next two or three days.
"We hope that with this week of rest that he will be able to resume his progression," Alderson said. "This has been a stop-start proposition for us from the beginning."
Josh Hamilton is done with his personal spring training and ready to rejoin the Rangers , according to an ESPN.com report.
Hamilton is set to fly Sunday to Cleveland to meet the team for the start of a three-game series against the Indians. The opener Monday is four weeks to the day after Texas finalized a trade to reacquire him from the Angels.
"I am excited about it," Hamilton said Saturday night, after his final scheduled game at Triple-A Round Rock was rained out.
