The Rays announced that right-hander Mason Englert has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to an impingement in his throwing shoulder. The placement is retroactive to September 4. Righty Cole Sulser was called up from Triple-A to take Englert’s spot on the active roster.
After posting a 5.45 ERA in 77 2/3 innings with the Tigers in his first two Major League seasons, Englert has had a semi-breakout year since being dealt to the Rays in February. The righty has a 3.83 ERA, 23.8% strikeout rate, and a particularly solid 5.9% walk rate across 44 2/3 innings and 29 appearances for Tampa Bay. Fifteen of Englert’s 29 outings have been longer than one inning, adding to his value as a bullpen weapon.
Since impingements can vary greatly in severity, it isn’t yet known whether or not Englert’s season could be in jeopardy. A minimal 15-day absence would allow Englert to still contribute to Tampa’s final nine games of the regular season, which could be important given how the Rays’ recent hot streak has brought the club back into the wild card race.
Englert is the second Rays reliever to hit the 15-day IL in as many days, as fellow righty Brian Van Belle was also sidelined by elbow inflammation yesterday. Van Belle was slated to undergo an MRI yesterday to look for any structural damage.
