Mastny sent down, Tyner called up


Due to his relative inactivity, Reliever Tom Mastny was sent down to triple A Buffalo. He only pitched in two games, so he will be better off getting innings in the minors. The Indians have not needed many relief innings because the starters have been going so deep into games. Jason Tyner is journeyman outfielder who will be used primarily as a pinch runner. I would assume he will be sent back down after Joe Borowski comes off of the disabled list. It will be nice to see a guy with speed on the club for late inning opportunities since the middle 4 in the lineup are incredibly slow.
