MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: In his first start since his no-hitter, Corey Kluber was only able to go three innings, but not because of a poor outing. Kluber left the game due to tightness in his right shoulder. He will will undergo an MRI on Wednesday.

MLB Trade Rumors | Steve Adams: Former Yankees outfielder Chris Young is joining MLB Network as an on-air analyst. “I’m excited for the opportunity to join the squad to talk baseball, mix in a little trash talk, have some fun and get my feet wet in the industry,” Young said in a statement. “Being fresh out of the game, I’ve followed it closely and am ready for this new challenge. I played for seven different teams in my career and I can’t wait to get started with my eighth.” Young played for the Yankees from 2014-2015 and hit .257 with 17 homers.
