Fantasy Impact:

He'll be shut down for four weeks before being reevaluated. Additionally, the Rangers have already said that if he returns this season it'll likely be as a reliever. Kluber left Sunday's start against the Rockies after just one inning with shoulder tightness. He can likely be dropped in redraft leagues right now. Kolby Allard is expected to replace him in Texas' rotation.
