Homer Bailey was placed on the 15-day disabled list Friday afternoon with an impingement in his right shoulder.
"He could have pitched with it but it would have lingered," general manager Walt Jocketty said. "Dr. Kremchek told us he should rest for seven days before starting a throwing program. We expect him to miss two starts. No MRI or injection is necessary."
Bailey was supposed to start against Milwaukee on April 2. His spot in the starting rotation will go to Sam LeCure, who is pitching on Saturday against the San Francisco Giants in Scottsdale.
