Chicago • Right-hander Zach Putnam has been placed on the 15-day disabled list by the Chicago Cubs because of a sore right elbow.

Putnam has an 18.90 ERA in five relief appearances with the Cubs this season and does not have any decisions.

Left-hander Brooks Raley was recalled Wednesday from Triple-A Iowa, where he was 5-4 with a 4.92 ERA in 12 starts and one relief appearance. He made his big league debut last August with the Cubs and was 1-2 with an 8.14 ERA in five starts.
