The Cleveland Baseball Club has placed the slugging designated hitter on the injured list and called up a promising prospect.
After exiting Saturday’s game with an injury, the Cleveland Baseball Club is placing Franmil Reyes on the injured list. The teams is also calling up Owen Miller to take the vacancy on the big league roster.
Reyes has 11 homers with 29 RBI this season while slashing .257/.316/.576/.893 in 40 games this season. Cleveland is really going to miss the power threat of Reyes in the lineup. Without Reyes there will be even more of a load placed on the shoulders of Jose Ramirez.
Miller is enjoying a nice season down in Columbus. In the very small sample size of just 16 games, Miller is slashing .406/.457/.609/1.067 with five doubles and nine runs batted in. It was only a matter of time before Miller was going to get the call. It’s just unfortunate that it is under these circumstances.
