While Mike Clevinger declared Sunday that he would be good to go for his next start, the Indians had other ideas, as today they placed him on the 10-day Injured List retroactive to April 8th with a right upper back strain.
Clevinger left Sunday’s 3-1 win against the Blue Jays after five innings and 75 pitches, not allowing a run with just one hit.
“We’re going to get him worked up tomorrow, just because, when a guy has a bunch of adrenaline going, when he wakes up tomorrow morning, we just don’t want to guess,” Indians manager Terry Francona said Sunday after the game.
