Is Torres injured?

[silversurferr]

Last night, Billy and BA commented that Torres did not pitch the tenth because of an injury. What is the story on this?

I've found nothing disclosed so far.

I finally found some info from Adam McCalvy's game story...

 

For a few moments, it appeared the Brewers might add another, unwelcome, layer of drama. After Torres threw 19 pitches in the ninth, television cameras showed him heading into the clubhouse with a member of the team's training staff. But Torres later told one of the club's broadcasters that he was fine.

I sure hope Torres wasn't just downplaying things, we need him.

The pen would be in dire need of another quality arm if Torres goes down.

I was hoping his pitch count was just too high to be used, and he was just going in for his postgame massage or whatever he does. Hopefully that's the case, though the Crew is notoriously tight lipped with minor tweaks.

Per Adam McCalvy, Sunday evening on brewers.com:

 

Closer Salomon Torres' availability was in question Sunday after he received treatment for a groin strain, though manager Ned Yost said Torres could pitch if needed.
