The Indians placed starting pitcher Corey Kluber on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday, MLB.com reports. Kluber has a right middle finger sprain.
The starter pitched against the Tigers Monday night and saw his 7 1/3 shutout innings amount to a Detroit victory against closer Chris Perez. Kluber has not allowed a single run in three of his last five outings, though he did give up seven over 14 2/3 in his other two starts over that stretch.
