CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Randy Wolf, who was to be the Philadelphia Phillies' No. 2 starter, will open the year on the 15-day disabled list because of tendinitis in his elbow.
The Phillies also placed reliever Turk Wendell on the 60-day disabled list because of tendinitis in his right elbow, and released pitcher Pete Schourek.
Wolf, who had a 6.87 ERA in five games this spring, could start Philadelphia's 10th game on April 11. He was 10-11 with a 3.70 ERA last season, and pitched well after the All-Star break. Wolf won his last three starts, allowing just one earned run in 25 1-3 innings.
Wendell struggled after coming to the Phillies from the New York Mets last July. He was 0-2 with a 7.47 ERA in 21 games for Philadelphia.
Schourek, who was fighting for the second left-handed reliever spot in the bullpen, had allowed eight runs and 16 hits in nine innings.
