September 24, 201312 yr http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/break...story?track=rss CLEVELAND -- White Sox left-handed relief pitcher David Purcey will miss the remaining six games of the season with a strained ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow. The 31-year-old Purcey does not need surgery as of now, and the injury is expected to heal with rest. Purcey was 1-1 with a 2.13 ERA in 24 games this season. He struck out 23 and walked 17 in 25 1/3 innings. He started the season with Triple-A Charlotte, where he compiled an 0-2 record with a 3.03 ERA and three saves in 26 games. His last appearance was against the Tigers on Friday, when he allowed six hits and three earned runs in 1 2/3 innings. ckane@tribune.com Twitter @ChiTribKane

Purcey's lucky his ERA wasn't 4.50 or 5. Guys simply don't get away with stranding 88% of base runners over the course of a full season.
