Padres placed RHP Tim Stauffer on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 15, with a right elbow sprain.
Well, that was fast. After beginning the year on the disabled list with an elbow strain, Stauffer made his season debut Monday against the Nationals and gave up four runs (three earned) over five innings. But the elbow is apparently still an issue. The newly-claimed Eric Stults may replace him in the starting rotation.
