Carlos Rivero |
After these moves the 40-man roster is currently at 34 players, though there are 36 players under control as catcher Carlos Santana and outfielder Grady Sizemore are still on the 60-day disabled list (they will be activated in the coming days). As first time outrights, Hodges and Huffman are still under control of the organization while Sutton is now a free agent since this was the second time he had been outrighted off a 40-man roster.
More on the moves this Sunday in my weekly Tribe Happenings notebook.

I thought adding Rivero last year was completely unnecessary, the idea that he could stick on a 25-man roster for a year was pretty farfetched. I don't think it matters much that they lost him now, but that was indeed bad roster management.
If Bryson isn't eligible for the Rule 5, I can't think of too many guys they even need to add this year: Hagadone, Miller, Judy, Kluber? Maybe Goedert
Yeah, I agree on Rivero. I was very surprised at his roster addition last year. The Indians always were higher on him than others, but man, at some point performance has to at least sort of meet projection, no? Guy has had two terrible years in Akron. Still young, but his days as an impact potential prospect are over.
