Salazar Hurt

Danny Salazar left the Indians game Friday night with forearm tightness:

Salazar was on the disabled list for elbow inflammation a month ago, but manager Terry Francona said this issue was muscular and not structural.

I hope that’s true. It seems a number of elbow injuries show up as forearm tightness. Salazar is very good at limiting hits due to his high strikeout rate. The Indians have a deep rotation so they could probably afford to lose Salazar for the playoffs, but it’s nice to keep the depth intact.

Hat tip, BBTF.
