MINNEAPOLIS (AP) The Cleveland Indians have optioned right-hander Cody Anderson to Triple-A Columbus.

Cleverland made the move before Wednesday's series finale against Minnesota. The team had high hopes for Anderson coming into the season and he could have been in position to make a bigger contribution after starter Carlos Carrasco went down with a hamstring injury. But Anderson is 0-1 with a 7.65 ERA in four starts.

The Indians have off days on Thursday and Monday, meaning they don't have a need for a fifth starter for the next 10 days. The move allows Anderson to get some work in with Columbus.

Cleveland recalled left-hander Kyle Crockett to fill the roster spot.
