Overview

  • Team officials placed Jones on the injured list with a right oblique strain after he was lifted for a pinch-hitter in Friday’s win over the Twins.
  • Reporters note the late-September timing likely ends his regular season and could keep him out if Cleveland reaches the postseason.
  • Halpin was promoted from Triple-A Columbus and is expected to make his Major League debut when he appears in a game.
  • The recall required no additional move because Halpin was already on the 40-man roster.
  • Jones, reacquired from Colorado just before Opening Day, has hit .211 with limited power this year, while Halpin posted a .249/.321/.414 line with 14 homers and 15 steals at Triple-A.
