Johnny Cueto was scheduled to start against the Cleveland Indians Sunday but has been sore and stiff since his start in Kansas City.
Raisel Iglesias will get the start against the Indians.
"There is always soreness but this has lingered a little longer," Bryan Price said. "He's been our workhorse and we've asked a lot of him. We haven't given him the extra day. He pitches later in the game because I trust him. It's probably fatigue. He could pitch tomorrow if we needed him but right now, we have options."
Cueto is not concerned but admitted to a little fatigue.

"It is like the normal soreness in the elbow," Cueto said through interpreter Tomas Vera. "I don't worry about it. I talked to the trainers and they communicated to the (coaching) staff. I felt stiff in the start in Kansas City but they did some things and it was alright. I would pitch tomorrow. Bryan knows me. He knows I would do it. Right now, I feel a little tired."
Cueto did his normal pre-game workout, long tossing from 100 feet and running poles in the outfield.
He could be plugged back in but more likely will miss just one turn.
