The Indians are expected to recall starter Carlos Carrasco from Triple-A Columbus to take the hill for an outing Saturday against Detroit, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports Tuesday. The start will come at Progressive Field in Cleveland.
Carrasco was optioned back to Triple-A following his start last Friday. He received a no-decision against the White Sox, but allowed six runs on 10 hits and two walks over 5 2/3 innings.
Carrasco has allowed five runs or more in three of his six big-league starts this season. He has an 8.17 ERA and a 1.93 WHIP in 25 1/3 innings.
