Nick Sandlin To Miss Rest Of Postseason
Cleveland Guardians relief pitcher Nick Sandlin (back, shoulder) is dealing with an upper back/shoulder strain and will miss the rest of the postseason. Sandlin was forced from his relief appearance in Game 2 of the American League Wild-Card Series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday and won't pitch again until next year. With the 25-year-old now on the shelf for the rest of the playoffs, Cody Morris and Aaron Civale will be options to join Cleveland's bullpen for the AL Division Series against the New York Yankees this week. In 46 relief appearances for the Guardians this year, Sandlin had a strong 2.25 ERA (3.68 FIP), a 1.16 WHIP, 41 strikeouts and 24 walks in 44 innings in his second big-league season.
