Downs was placed on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday due to a cervical facet sprain. Downs hasn't been utilized since Aug. 2, meaning he could be available next Monday in Minnesota, if all goes well. In 50 contests between the White Sox and Royals, he cranked out a 5.29 ERA, 1.471 WHIP, and 25:19 K:BB. Upon his eventual return, though, middle relief is his ceiling.
