San Diego pitcher Mat Latos landed on the Disabled List on July 9th after hurting his ribs trying to suppress a sneeze. Latos has enjoyed a fantastic season thus far with a 10-4 record and 2.45 ERA but his attempt to keep his phlegm from escaping into the open air was a failure.

Latos' injury may have been a blessing in disguise as the Padres were hoping to give his arm a bit of a break.
“Is it a big deal?” Latos said. “That depends on how it goes and how long I’ll miss. It’s sore. I am not going to lie.”
He is eligible to return on July 24th but the Padres are expected to check pollen levels before giving him the green light.
