Indians placed RHP Josh Tomlin on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 13, with a right elbow injury.
The exact nature of the injury isn’t yet known, but Tomlin is scheduled to have his elbow examined by Dr. Lewis Yocum while the team is in California. The 27-year-old right-hander has a 6.36 ERA over 101 1/3 innings this season. Roberto Hernandez was added to the active roster in a corresponding roster move and will start Wednesday night.
