Arizona Diamondbacks placed closer A.J. Puk on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his left pitching elbow, amid a number of moves Saturday.
In addition to being without Puk for at least the next two weeks, the Diamondbacks optioned right-hander Bryce Jarvis and left-hander Joe Mantiply to Triple-A Reno.
