The seven-time All-Star was removed from Thursday's start against the Reds after 3 2/3 innings and underwent an MRI.
Analysis: Injuries are of course nothing new for Sale, who's been limited to only 11 starts over the previous three seasons due to Tommy John surgery and a few other ailments. The 34-year-old had been pitching very well of late, going 3-0 with 2.43 ERA over a five-start stretch in which he struck out 36 over 29.2 innings.
