Carrasco unhindered after being hit by liner

To start Tuesday after sustaining bruised jaw

CHICAGO -- Carlos Carrasco originally was slated to start Monday for the Indians, but his start was pushed back to Tuesday after he sustained a bruised jaw on April 14 when he was struck by a line drive off the bat of Chicago's Melky Cabrera.

Indians manager Terry Francona said there will be no limitations on the right-hander.

"He's fine," Francona said. "He's good to go."
