4 years agoMinnesota Twins right-handed pitcher Tyler Clippard was struck on the right arm by a line drive during Sunday’s contest against the Royals. While postgame imaging did not reveal any major injuries, manager Rocco Baldelli did not sound optimistic about Clippard pitching anytime soon. The veteran righty picked up the win Sunday and lowered his ERA to 1.42 through his first 12 ⅔ innings. Having become a vital cog in the Minnesota bullpen, Clippard holds deep league value so long as he returns from injury without any adverse effects. Check back for an update as it pertains to whether or not he’ll need an IL stint.--Jesse Borek
