Cleveland Indians ace Corey Kluber left Wednesday’s game against the Miami Marlins after taking a line drive off his right (pitching) arm. X-rays showed a fracture in his forearm and at this point, the Indians don’t know how long Kluber will be out. There are several potential ramifications of Kluber’s injury which could affect the Yankees. 1. Kluber comes off the market Cleveland had floated Kluber in trade talks during the offseason, and the Yankees had been rumored to be a landing spot. If Luis Severino’s injury lingers too far into the summer, general manager Brian Cashman could have called the Indians to see about Kluber’s availability before the trade deadline. Remember, Kluber is a two-time American League Cy Young Award winner who is making more than $17 million this year, according to Spotrac. Kluber also has options for 2020 ($17.5 million) and 2021 ($18 million). If Cleveland had not wanted to keep paying for Kluber, the Yankees would have had deep enough pockets to step up and make a bid for the 33-year-old right-hander. 2. Trevor Bauer in play The Indians also shopped Bauer during the offseason. The 28-year-old right-hander is 4-1 with a 2.45 ERA this season. According to Spotrac, Bauer is making $13 million this season and has one more year of arbitration eligibility remaining. If the Indians, who are in second place in the American League Central with a 16-13 record, start to slide, Cleveland could go into sell mode and Bauer could be the hottest pitcher on the market before the trade deadline. 3. Twins could load up for the playoffs The Minnesota Twins are in first place in the AL Central with an 18-10 record, giving them a 2.5 game-lead over Cleveland. Seeing the Indians as vulnerable without Kluber could entice Minnesota to load up on talent before the trade deadline (Craig Kimbrel? Dallas Keuchel? ), making the Twins a more difficult out in the playoffs if they end up facing the Yankees in the postseason. Buy Yankees tickets: StubHub, SeatGeek, PrimeSport, Ticketmaster 4. Path to the playoffs opens up for the Red Sox Boston has been the biggest bust of the season, stumbling to a 14-17 start. If the Indians go from buyers to sellers, there will be one less team the defending World Series champs have to contend with for a spot in the playoffs this October. The Yankees, needless to say, would prefer to watch the Red Sox sleepwalk their way through the season and miss the playoffs. Mike Rosenstein may be reached at mrosenstein@njadvancemedia.com.

While we don’t have a firm timetable, we can look back at players who sustained a similar injury to get a sense of when we might be able to see Kluber on the mound again. Blue Jays prospect Nate Pearson sustained a non-displaced fracture of his ulna when he was struck by a line drive in his first Minor League start on May 7 of last year. Pearson was in a cast for five weeks and back throwing live batting practice in August, although he didn’t pitch in another game that season. Though not a pitcher, Hunter Pence had a non-displaced fracture of his left ulna on March 5, 2015, and played his first regular-season game that year on May 16. \"I know he's working to get back...\" Perez said. \"He's going to be Kluber.

Cleveland’s ride might end before then. Corey Kluber‘s broken right arm may alter the plans for a season the Indians hoped would include a fourth straight AL Central title. Kluber sustained a non-displaced fracture Wednesday night when he was struck by a line drive in the fifth inning of a start against Miami. Kluber, who struggled through the season’s first month, couldn’t avoid the 102-mph comebacker hit by Marlins infielder Brian Anderson. After being nailed, Kluber chased after the ball while his right arm stayed motionless against his side. He swatted the ball with his glove toward the bag before walking dejectedly back to the mound. The 33-year-old underwent further imaging tests Thursday to determine the length of his absence. The team is reviewing those results and will place him on the 10-day injured list while providing an update Friday before the opener of a three-game series against the Seattle Mariners. Based on the initial diagnosis, and assuming there’s no other damage, Kluber will likely miss more than one month to allow his ulna bone to heal. The loss of Kluber, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, for any time will hurt. He’s been among baseball’s most consistent pitchers for the past five years, and the Indians are already without starter Mike Clevinger, who is out with a strained upper back muscle. Without 40 per cent of their starting staff, the Indians look vulnerable. They already trail the improved Minnesota Twins by 2 1/2 games, and Cleveland’s offence has been in a prolonged slump. The Indians are batting an AL-low .215 and have 111 runs in 29 games. All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor hasn’t taken off after being sidelined to start the season with a sprained ankle, and All-Star third baseman Jose Ramirez has yet to break out of a slump that stretches back to August. When Cleveland’s front office chose not to trade Kluber or Trevor Bauer and to reconstruct the team’s roster by allowing All-Star outfielder Michael Brantley to leave as a free agent and trading sluggers Edwin Encarnacion, Yonder Alonzo and Yandy Diaz, it did so behind the belief that the pitching depth would be enough to get the Indians back to the playoffs. That theory is about to be tested. Clevinger is still probably a few weeks from returning, although he played catch this week and appears to be ahead of schedule. The Indians will likely go to a five-man rotation in May with Jefry Rodriguez getting one of the spots. He’s made two starts while filling in for Clevinger and is scheduled to start Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox. Kluber would have started Monday, and manager Terry Francona will either juggle his rotation or reach down to Triple-A Columbus and bring up either Adam Plutko or Cody Anderson. Plutko opened the season in the minors and has been recovering from a forearm strain. Anderson has missed most of the past two seasons after Tommy John elbow surgery, but the Indians think he could be ready soon. When Francona went to the mound to check on Kluber, what he saw was alarming. “It looked ugly,” he said. Right now, it’s not the only unpleasant sight for the Indians.<doc-sep>Cleveland Indians right-hander Corey Kluber has a non-displaced fracture of his right ulna, the team announced. He will be re-evaluated on Thursday in Cleveland to confirm the injury and assess a timetable for his return.

Two-time Cy Young Award-winning pitcher Corey Kluber broke his right forearm, his pitching arm, Wednesday night after he was hit by a line drive. The Cleveland Indians ace was struck by Miami Marlins’ Brian Anderson’s liner in the fifth inning. Despite being hit, Kluber ran to the ball and attempted to swipe it with his glove to first base. Anderson was called safe. The 33-year-old starting pitcher was then seen walking back to the mound in obvious pain. According to Statcast, the ball had an exit velocity of 102.2 mph. MLB PITCHER RICH HILL OPENS UP ABOUT THE DEATH OF HIS NEWBORN SON IN HEARTFELT ESSAY Indians manager Terry Francona told reporters after the game: “It looked ugly.’ Kluber will be re-evaluated in Cleveland when the team can determine how long the pitcher might be out. The Indians said the fracture was non-displaced, meaning the bone was still properly aligned. "It stinks, you know?" teammate Roberto Perez said. "He's our ace. We're going to miss him." The Cleveland catcher called the injury “tough” to watch.

It was tough." The Cleveland Indians are also without starter Mike Clevinger, who will be sidelined at least until June with a back injury.
