Indians trade De La Cruz to Rangers
February 21, 2012Box Score: (9) Ohio State 83, Illinois 67
February 21, 2012The Indians brought in 33 year old utility infielder Cristian Guzman on a minor league deal with an invite to big league camp.
Tribe beat writer Jordan Bastian writes:
“Guzman would become the 62nd player in this spring’s crowded Cleveland camp. He would up the list of non-roster invitees to 22 players, including 13 new additions who joined the team on Minor League contracts this winter. Presumably, Guzman would be a long shot for a bench job, though he might also serve as Minor League depth. Guzman played for the Washington Nationals during Acta’s time as manager of that team. The 33-year-old infielder, who took part in Tuesday’s informal practice at the Indians’ facility, indicated that the plan is for him to see time at both shortstop and second base this spring.”
So there’s another player on the pile.
