The Tampa Bay Rays lost the hurler at the top of their rotation midway through his start Monday, as Tyler Glasnow was lifted from the game against the Chicago White Sox after four innings with what the team is calling inflammation in his right elbow.

Glasnow allowed a pair of runs in the third inning, but worked a scoreless fourth, though Rays color analyst and former pitcher Brian Anderson of Bally Sports Sun pointed out on the television broadcast that the 27-year-old was stretching and moving his right arm in a way that concerned him.

Glasnow is unable to earn the win despite leaving with a 3-2 lead.
