Jim Little was taking it slow and easy nursing back tightness back to good health, when he suffered a setback. According to a Cleveland team official, “Jim was making excellent progress and it appeared he would return to the squad ahead of schedule. But then he reinjured it in a light workout.” Club doctors now say the 30-year-old Guardians reliever will be out at least another one week.
This year his season stats show Little has 1 save in 20 relief appearances with a 1-1 record and 5.48 ERA.
