Salazar goes on DL with elbow inflammation

CLEVELAND -- The high of the Indians' success at the non-waiver Trade Deadline wore off in the third inning on Monday night. Manager Terry Francona walked to the mound, took the ball from Danny Salazar's hand and the pitcher left the shortest start of his career with a head spinning with worry.

"There's something in my elbow," Salazar said after the Tribe's 12-5 loss to the Twins at Progressive Field. "I don't know what it is. We don't know. I think we're going to find out tomorrow."

Salazar and the Indians discovered on Tuesday that the right-hander has inflammation in his elbow.
