Dodgers place RHP Stripling (toe) on DL

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed starter Ross Stripling was placed on the 10-day disabled list because of right toe inflammation, the team announced Monday night.

In a corresponding move, the Dodgers recalled right-handed reliever Dylan Floro from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Stripling, 28, suffered the injury in the Dodgers' defeat at Atlanta on Sunday and has struggled in two starts since appearing in his first All-Star Game earlier this month. In his last two outings, Stripling has given up nine runs, 14 hits, including four home runs, in 8 2/3 innings as his ERA has risen from 2.08 to 2.68.

For the season, the three-year veteran is 8-3 with 119 strikeouts in 104 innings across 27 games (16 starts).

The 27-year-old Floro was dealt to Los Angeles from Cincinnati on July 4 and has appeared in 31 games this season, going 3-2 with a 2.89 ERA. In six outings with the Dodgers, he has allowed three runs and four hits in 7 1/3 innings.
