The Indians are listing closer Chris Perez as day to day with a shoulder injury after he left Sunday's game against the Red Sox during a save situation in the ninth inning. Manager Terry Francona didn't name any potential replacements for Perez in the closer's role if he were to miss time, but MLB Network analyst Peter Gammons feels Bryan Shaw would be the guy to step into the closer's role.
Shaw has no record and 1.85 ERA through 19 appearances. He has two holds, one blown save and 24 strikeouts in 24 1/3 innings. The right-hander recorded two saves for Arizona last season.
