Summary

Tampa Bay Rays left-handed reliever Garrett Cleavinger has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to forearm tightness and will miss at least a week and a half of games. He had pitched in the team's win over Texas on Friday night, but was unable to record an out before being removed from the game. The Rays have called up right-hander Ty Johnson from Triple-A Durham to replace Cleavinger, who is 4-4 with a 4.79 ERA in 51 appearances. Johnson is making his major league debut after going 4-1 with a 3.03 ERA for Durham.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
