Indians starting pitcher Justin Masterson said he is expected to miss at least one start due to his rib cage injury, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Masterson said the injury is in the area of his oblique and intercostal muscles.
Masterson had to leave his start Monday against Baltimore with the issue. He will not start Sunday against the New York Mets, though the Indians have not announced a replacement. Masterson has a 3.52 ERA in 189 1/3 innings for the Tribe.
