Cleveland Indians ace RHP Corey Kluber has a non-displaced fracture of his right ulna, the team announced yesterday. He was re-evaluated in Cleveland today to confirm the injury. Kluber left yesterday's game against the Marlins after being hit by a 102 mph comebacker hit by the Marlins' Brian Anderson. Kluber immediately knew something was wrong, as he didn't even use his arm to throw the ball to first, instead flipping the ball with his glove.
Entering yesterday's game, Kluber had a 5.81 ERA and has thrown only 2 quality starts in his 7 starts this season for Cleveland. Kluber is a 2 time AL Cy Young winner. The Indians are also without fellow pitcher Mike Clevinger, who is dealing with a back strain and hasn't pitched for almost a month. Cleveland is currently in second place in the AL Central, behind the Minnesota Twins.
