Expert Note
View More NotesWhen you watched Canning pitch last year, you just felt like you were left wanting more. His raw stuff is excellent, he misses bats consistently, and his control is solid. Yet his 4.58 ERA was entirely earned, and he never took that big leap everyone was waiting for. He may do so this season, though a smaller jump is more likely. Draft him for strikeouts, hope for the rest, because there's enough upside to make him worth it.

Griffin Canning was placed on the injured list Wednesday with right elbow inflammation, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Fantasy Impact
This is the same elbow that bothered Canning earlier in the season. The 23-year-old righty is heading back to California to be further evaluated, after which a timetable for his return will hopefully emerge. Fantasy owners should keep an eye on updates.
