KANSAS CITY — Trevor McDonald, the 25-year-old starting pitcher for the San Francisco Giants, was placed on the 15-day injured list due to an elbow strain after exiting a game against the Royals. His inconsistent performance before the injury, with a 3-7 record and a 5.12 ERA, raised doubts about his role in the team’s rotation for next season. Manager Tony Vitello noted the need for McDonald to seek consistency, while the injury opens up opportunities for other young pitchers like Carson Whisenhunt. The Giants await MRI results to assess McDonald’s condition and future.
