The Seattle Mariners placed starting pitcher Robbie Ray on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a left flexor strain and recalled fellow left-hander Gabe Speier from Triple-A Tacoma.
The Mariners also acquired infielder/outfielder Nick Solak from the Cincinnati Reds for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Tacoma.
Ray, 31, allowed five runs (three earned) on four hits and five walks in 3⅓ innings in Friday's 9-4 loss to the Cleveland Guardians.
The American League Cy Young Award winner in 2021 with Toronto, Ray is 74-71 with a 3.96 ERA in 226 career games (222 starts) with the Detroit Tigers (2014), Arizona Diamondbacks (2015-20), Blue Jays (2020-21) and Mariners.
