Giants placed LHP Barry Zito on the 15-day disabled list with a right foot strain.
It's the same injury that landed him on the disabled list in April. Zito has allowed 19 runs over his last three starts, so it would have made little sense to hide him in the bullpen. He'll eventually head out on a minor league rehab assignment, where he'll get an opportunity to work through his struggles.
