TORONTO (AP) - Cleveland’s Jake Westbrook has been scratched from his scheduled start at Toronto, a sign the Indians are close to trading the pitcher.
The Indians have been discussing trading the pitcher to the St. Louis Cardinals, which would be part of a three-team deal that also includes San Diego.
A 2004 All-Star, the 32-year-old right-hander is 6-7 with a 4.65 ERA in 21 starts this year and has a 69-71 record in 10 major league seasons.
Josh Tomlin will start in Westbrook’s place.
