Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians designated OF Ezequiel Carrera for assignment.

Carrera had just returned to the organization when he was claimed off waivers on Thursday. It's possible he'll pass through this time and be assigned to Triple-A Columbus.

May 5 - 12:03 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians claimed OF Ezequiel Carrera off waivers from the Phillies.

Carrera, of course, spent the last two and a half seasons with the Tribe before they designated him for assignment at the end of spring training. The speedster will provide outfield depth.

May 2 - 6:07 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Phillies designated OF Ezequiel Carrera for assignment.

The move clears a spot for Delmon Young on the active roster. Carrera, who was claimed off waivers from the Indians, went 1-for-13 with two runs scored in 13 games with the Phillies. He could draw interest somewhere as a potential reserve outfielder.

Apr 30 - 1:34 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Phillies claimed OF Ezequiel Carrera off waivers from the Indians.

Rule 5 pick Ender Inciarte was designated for assignment in a corresponding roster move. Carrera owns an underwhelming .255/.306/.347 batting line over 384 plate appearances in the majors, but he has speed and is capable of playing all three outfield positions. He should be a useful bench player for Charlie Manuel.

Apr 2 - 2:47 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians designated OF Ezequiel Carrera for assignment.

The move clears room on the 40-man roster for Jason Giambi. Carrera owns an underwhelming .255/.306/.347 batting line over 384 plate appearances in the majors, but he has speed and is capable of playing all three outfield positions. It's possible he'll draw interest on waivers.

Mar 25 - 7:42 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

The Indians have told outfielder Ezequiel Carrera that he will not make the Opening Day roster.

Carrera is out of options, so the Indians will attempt to trade him. The 25-year-old owns an underwhelming .255/.306/.347 batting line over 384 plate appearances in the majors, but he has speed and is capable of playing all three outfield positions. He could latch on somewhere as a reserve outfielder.

Mar 25 - 5:46 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Ezequiel Carrera hit a pair of triples and scored the Indians' lone run in Saturday's loss to the Tigers.

Carrera, who was recalled to the big league roster on Friday, should be given a chance to play fairly regularly with Johnny Damon given his release. The speedy outfielder is now 4-for-7 on the season, and is worth monitoring in deeper fantasy leagues for his intriguing speed potential.

Sat, Aug 4, 2012 10:13:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians recalled OF Ezequiel Carrera from Triple-A Columbus.

Carrera has spent all of this season in the minors, batting .294/.345/.419 with six homers and 26 steals for Columbus. He'll back up at all three outfield spots.

Fri, Aug 3, 2012 03:38:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians optioned OF Ezequiel Carrera, SS Juan Diaz and RHP Corey Kluber to Triple-A Columbus.

Of the three, Carrera probably had the best chance to crack the Opening Day roster, especially with Grady Sizemore's injury. But, he batted just .227/.292/.227 this spring to earn a trip to Triple-A to start the season.

Sun, Mar 18, 2012 01:21:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Ezequiel Carrera went 0-for-4 as the Indians' leadoff man in Wednesday's loss to the Tigers.

Carrera is the Indians' best defensive center fielder, but he's not making a great case for a spot in the team's 2012 plans with a .237/.302/.289 line in 152 at-bats to date. He should lose playing time with Grady Sizemore and Trevor Crowe back on the roster.

Wed, Sep 7, 2011 03:18:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Batting leadoff in his second major league doubleheader, Ezequiel Carrera went 5-for-10 with two runs and an RBI.

He also stole his sixth base of the season. Carrera is the beneficiary of Mickey Brantley's temporary absence, and he's making the most of it with seven hits in his last three games.

Wed, Aug 24, 2011 06:06:00 AM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians recalled OF Ezequiel Carrera from Triple-A Columbus.

Carrera was shipped out of Cleveland yesterday but will return 24 hours later because Shelley Duncan was placed on the Family Medical Emergency List. Carrera received significant playing time over the past five weeks, but he won't get the same at-bats this time around now that Shin-Soo Choo and Michael Brantley are healthy and Kosuke Fukudome is playing center field on a regular basis. The 24-year-old is batting .236/.292/.281 with four doubles, six RBI and four stolen bases over 100 plate appearances with Cleveland this season.

Sat, Aug 20, 2011 07:01:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Indians optioned OF Ezequiel Carrera to Triple-A Columbus.

Carrera has seen significant playing time over the past five weeks, but he's no longer necessary now that Shin-Soo Choo and Michael Brantley are healthy and Kosuke Fukudome is playing center field on a regular basis. The 24-year-old is batting .236/.292/.281 with four doubles, six RBI and four stolen bases over 100 plate appearances with the big club this season. He should be back when the rosters expand in September.

Fri, Aug 19, 2011 04:04:00 PM

Ezequiel Carrera - OF - Indians

Ezequiel Carrera singled three times in four at-bats in Friday's win over the Twins.

All three of the singles for the speedy outfielder were of the infield variety. Carrera is getting some playing time with Grad Sizemore on the shelf, but he doesn't done a whole lot with it, batting just .244 with four extra-base hits in 31 games.

Depth Charts

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Carlos Santana
	2	Lou Marson D.L. Lou Marson (shoulder) has been cleared to begin a throwing program. Marson has been on the DL for nearly two weeks with right shoulder inflammation. He should be cleared for a rehab assignment soon as long as his throwing goes well. May 9

RF	1	Drew Stubbs
DH	1	Jason Giambi
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Justin Masterson
	2	Ubaldo Jimenez
	3	Brett Myers D.L. Brett Myers (elbow) fared well in his first minor league rehab start with Double-A Akron on Friday, allowing just one hit and a walk over three scoreless innings of work. Myers threw 33 pitches in the game, 18 for strikes. He's dealing with a mild UCL tear in his elbow, but has chosen to try to pitch through the injury rather than undergoing surgery. It's a good first step, but he'll need several rehab outings before rejoining the Indians' rotation. May 17
	4	Zach McAllister
	5	Scott Kazmir
	6	Trevor Bauer
	7	Josh Tomlin D.L. Indians placed RHP Josh Tomlin on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury. The move was made in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for the arrival of Michael Bourn. Tomlin is recovering from Tommy John surgery and is expected to miss the entire 2013 campaign. Feb 15
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Chris Perez
	2	Vinnie Pestano
	3	Joe Smith
	4	Matt Albers
	5	Bryan Shaw
	6	Rich Hill
	7	Cody Allen
	8	Corey Kluber
	9	David Huff
	10	Blake Wood D.L. Blake Wood (elbow) will continue his minor league rehab assignment Wednesday with Class A Lake County. Wood felt some soreness in his surgically-repaired elbow during his first appearance on Saturday, but it was only a minor scare. The 27-year-old right-hander is currently in recovery mode from Tommy John surgery and will likely need a handful of appearances before he's a legitimate consideration for the major league roster. May 14
	11	Frank Herrmann D.L. Indians transferred RHP Frank Herrmann from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move clears a spot for the newly-claimed Robert Whitenack on the 40-man roster. Herrmann had Tommy John surgery in March and will miss the entire 2013 season. Apr 3
