Yan Gomes of the Indians suffered a separated shoulder on Sunday and will miss four to eight weeks on the disabled list.
The team officially placed Gomes on the disabled list Monday but said that surgery, at this point, is not required.
The team activated catcher Roberto Perez to replace Gomes on the roster. Perez had been at Triple-A Columbus, rehabbing from a broken right thumb.
Perez is 0 for 8 with six walks this season. He is a low batting average, high OBP player. He would be perfect batting ninth as a secondary lead-off hitter, especially given the power at the top of the Indians lineup.
