McClanahan (11-2) is 0-1 in six starts since his last win June 16, leaving starts June 22 and June 30 due to mid-back tightness that eventually forced him onto the 15-day IL on July 1. He returned July 17 and went six innings against the Texas Rangers before lasting just four, five and four innings in his next three starts, respectively.
He left Wednesday’s start against the New York Yankees after a five-run fourth inning, partly because the outside of his forearm tightened up while he was warming up for the inning.
