PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia Phillies have scratched right-hander Aaron Nola from his scheduled start Wednesday night and placed him on the 15-day disabled list with a strained elbow.Right-hander Phil Klein, who is 0-1 with a 5.19 ERA in eight relief appearances for the Texas Rangers this season, will instead start Game 2 of the three-game series against the San Francisco Giants.Nola (6-9, 4.78) said he felt discomfort after his most recent start on Thursday in Atlanta.But I really didnt think it was anything, Nola said. It just kind of got sore a little bit. It kind of prolonged for the next couple of days and I told the (Phillies staff).The 23-year-old has been struggling for nearly two months and has a 9.82 ERA in his last eight starts. The Phillies skipped him once in the rotation before the All-Star break, but Nola said his struggles have had nothing to do with his health.No, no, I never felt any pain or any soreness, he said. I guess it just kind of flared up in that one game.Nola hopes to return this season, though the Phillies could be cautious with a young pitcher who is considered one of their key cornerstones in their rebuild.Im definitely going to do everything to get back and recover from this, Nola said. I really hope Ill be back before the end of the year.He said he wont throw for at least a week before being re-evaluated.In his place, the Phillies turned to Klein to face right-hander Johnny Cueto (13-3, 2.63).A 30th-round selection in 2011 by the Rangers, Klein is 2/3 with a 4.80 ERA in 36 career games, two of them starts. The Phillies claimed the 6-foot-7, 255-pounder from Texas on June 19, and he was 1-1 with a 2.13 ERA in eight games with Triple-A Lehigh Valley before being called up.
