The Tampa Bay Rays placed left-handed reliever Garrett Cleavinger on the 15-day injured list with forearm tightness, before a game against the Texas Rangers. Cleavinger had pitched in the previous night's game, allowing two hits and one walk without retiring a batter. He is 4-4 with a 4.79 ERA in 51 appearances this season. To replace him, the Rays called up right-hander Ty Johnson, who was born near Globe Life Field in Texas and has a 3.03 ERA for Triple-A Durham. Johnson, who is making his major league debut, had a 4-1 record with 10 starts for Durham this season.
