Jason Kipnis activated, Chris Johnson sent to DL

Jason Kipnis (2B - FA)

2B Jason Kipnis has been activated but is not in the Indians starting nine to face the Red Sox on Tuesday. Chris Johnson has been placed on the 15-day DL with a continuation of the hand-infection caused, apparently, by a spider's bite.

Fantasy Impact
Fantasy owners will be hoping that Jason Kipnis will be able to continue with the stellar form he showed before the DL-stint. The second baseman had a .326/.401/.488 slash line in the 85 games since moving to the leadoff spot.
