HOUSTON (AP) — The Houston Astros have placed ace Dallas Keuchel (KY'-kehl) on the 10-day disabled list with a pinched nerve in his neck. The move is retroactive to May 17, which means he might only miss one start. The left-hander has a 1.84 ERA, the lowest in the majors, and his seven wins are the most in the American League and tied for most overall. To take his place on the roster the Astros recalled left-hander Ashur Tolliver from Triple-A Fresno.
