Tue May 7 201916:17Indians star Kluber hoping broken arm not season ender
CLEVELAND (AP) — Indians ace Corey Kluber is hopeful he will be able to come back from a broken right arm and pitch again this season.The two-time AL Cy Young Award winner spoke Tuesday for the first time since he was struck by a 102 mph line drive off the bat of Brian Anderson during a start last week in Miami. His arm wrapped in a soft cast, Kluber said it has been difficult to stay positive and patient with an injury that has dramatically impacted his season.Kluber will undergo weekly X-rays so doctors can see if his bone is healing properly.Asked if he's confident he'll return in 2019, Kluber said, "I don't have a plan not to pitch again. Obviously, I don't have a definitive timeline because it's all depending on how things heal. But in my mind, I'm not looking at it as season ending."The 33-year-old said it's been challenging to sit around and "be at your body's mercy."___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

CLEVELAND (AP) — Corey Kluber doesn't need surgery on his broken right arm — for now.And, for the time being, the Indians season is cracked, not crushed.Cleveland placed the two-time AL Cy Young Award winner on the 10-day injured list Friday, and the club didn't provide a definitive timeline for his return to the rotation.Kluber sustained a non-displaced fracture of his ulna bone on Wednesday night when he was hit by a line drive during a start against Miami. He had more imaging tests taken Thursday at the Cleveland Clinic, and the results confirmed the initial diagnosis.Manager Terry Francona said Kluber's arm will be immobilized for the next week — the Indians will keep him out of the dugout to prevent his arm from being bumped — and the 33-year-old will be X-rayed once a week. The cast will be removed in three weeks, when doctors will decide what's next.Francona said the club purposely avoided guessing at a recovery time."Number one, it doesn't help," Francona said before the Indians...
