Shut down with forearm strain
The Giants placed Houser on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a right forearm strain.
Analyse
Houser will likely be sent in for an MRI before the Giants have a better sense of a timeline for his return, but he's a good bet to spend more than the minimum 15 days on the shelf and could be at risk of missing the rest of the season. The right-hander sustained the injury in his start against the Reds on Tuesday, when he was lifted midway through the second inning after feeling tightness in his arm. Houser had been pitching exceptionally well since the All-Star break, logging a 1.52 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 20:7 K:BB in 29.2 innings between two starts and six relief appearances. The loss of Houser creates another hole in a patchwork Giants rotation that has been thinned out over the past few weeks after Tyler Mahle and Robbie Ray were moved at the trade deadline and after Trevor McDonald (elbow) and Carson Whisenhunt (elbow) both recently suffered season-ending injuries.

MRI scheduled
Houser will undergo an MRI on his right arm Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analyse
Houser was pulled from his start in the second inning due to arm tightness, and the results of his MRI will help determine whether he needs to spend time on the injured list. An IL stint for Houser would be a crucial blow to a Giants rotation that already lost Carson Whisenhunt on Monday to a UCL tear.

Exits with injury
Houser was removed from Tuesday's game against the Red with an apparent arm injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analyse
Houser's arm began giving him trouble after he made a pitch during the second inning, and manager Tony Vitello made the call to take him out of the game immediately afterward. It's unclear what exactly the right-hander is dealing with, but the Giants should provide an update on his status after they get a closer look at him.
