CLEVELAND, OH -- The Cleveland Indians today announced the following transactions relative to the 2019 Major League roster:

Placed RHP CARLOS CARRASCO (non-baseball, medical condition) on the 10-day Injured List, retroactive to June 2.

Optioned OF GREG ALLEN to AAA Columbus.

Recalled RHP JON EDWARDS (#46) and RHP NICK GOODY (#44) from AAA Columbus.

Carlos was recently diagnosed with a blood condition following several weeks of feeling lethargic. While in the information-gathering stage, Carlos is stepping away from baseball activities to explore the optimal treatment and recovery options, the details of which will be conveyed at the discretion of Carlos and his family. We do not know when Carlos will rejoin the club but expect him back at some point this season.  At this time, our primary concern is Carlos’ health and we will respect his wishes to keep this a private matter. We ask everyone to keep Carlos and his family in their thoughts during his challenging time.

Edwards has split the 2019 season between Cleveland and Columbus, posting an ERA of 2.45 (2ER/7.1IP) in eight relief outings with the Major League club. Goody has spent the entire campaign in Columbus and has posted an ERA of 1.69 ERA (2ER/10.2IP/15SO) over his last eight appearances.
