Borowski Out Longer than 2 Weeks?

Paul Hoynes of the Plain Dealer says Borowski could be on the DL from anywhere to two weeks to four weeks.

He also reveals that Borowski has been injured since Spring and the Indians tried to work through it.

"The Indians tried to keep closer Joe Borowski's injury quiet. Now everybody knows, and Borowski is expected to be on the disabled list for 15 days to four weeks with a strained right triceps muscle.

Manager Eric Wedge said Borowski injured his triceps muscle March¤14 in a night exhibition game against Washington. The Indians gave him a few days off, and he's been trying to pitch through it." - (Plain Dealer)

That's telling. Joe didn't look right in the first two games either. It was noticeable.

Joe can take his time getting back. It will give us a chance to see what we have and who can do the job.

From the same article, we find out Jorge and Kobayashi won't be used in the closers role anytime soon..

"Kobayashi is still working his way in," said Wedge. "Jorge has been throwing the ball well, but he hasn't been close to that role this year. I'm not ready to go from zero to 60 mph with those two guys."

Ole' Blinky wasn't too worried about using Jensen Lewis or Rafael Left in that role either.
