MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -The Minnesota Twins have placed reliever Jesse Crain on the 15-day disabled list with a sore right shoulder.
The move was made Monday, retroactive to Saturday. Left-hander Jose Mijares will be recalled from Triple-A Rochester before Tuesday’s game against the Red Sox.
Crain was solid in his first six appearances until Friday, when he was charged with four runs in the seventh inning against the Angels. His ERA soared to 7.50.
Mijares pitched 6 1-3 scoreless innings in five appearances for the Red Wings, with two hits, one walk and four strikeouts. After a dominant performance as a rookie last September, Mijares was in line to be the eighth-inning reliever before struggling with his control and his weight in spring training.
