Kluber Torn

Corey Kluber of the Texas Rangers will likely miss the rest of the season with a torn shoulder muscle:

“Given the time frame here and the nature of a 60-game schedule and everything that goes with it, the timeline is not on our side,” Daniels said. “We will give him his period to rest, and then if it’s recovered, or the injury is healed to the point where he can begin throwing, he’ll do so with the potential to possibly be ready for the end of the season. If that is the case, it’d probably be more likely as a reliever, given the time needed to build up as a starter.”

The most likely time to be injured is in the aftermath of a recovery from another injury. That happened to Kluber this time. Of course, these days one is probably happy to be out due to a torn muscle rather than COVID-19.
