Carlos Carrasco (hamstring) to be activated Thursday for Cleveland

Cleveland Indians pitcher Carlos Carrasco will be activated from the disabled list to start Thursday against the Kansas City Royals.

What It Means:

Carrasco, out since late-April with a hamstring strain, tossed four innings of one-run ball with six strikeouts in his lone minor league rehab start with Double-A Akron on Saturday. He'll be limited to around 80 pitches in his return to action.

Carrasco threw 22 innings this season before getting injured, posting a 2.45 ERA and a 23.5 strikeout percentage. Our models currently project him to record a 3.95 ERA and a 21.6 strikeout percentage over the remaining course of the season (75 innings).
