Indians recalled RHP Corey Kluber from Triple-A Columbus.
Kluber, 25, was acquired in the three-way Jake Westbrook trade last season. The 2007 fourth-round pick posted an ugly 5.65 ERA over 26 starts with Triple-A Columbus this season, but did average 8.6 K/9. He still has the potential to be backend starter in the major leagues, but will likely pitch as a long man out of the bullpen in September.
