Embattled Indians right-hander Justin Masterson has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a knee ailment one day after another disastrous start.
Masterson, who has had an outing pushed back due to a sore knee, yielded five earned runs before getting knocked out in the third inning of his Tuesday night start against the Yankees. He has given up 13 runs on 20 hits in his last nine innings pitched. His ERA has soared to 5.51.
