Indians sent OF Jerad Head outright to Triple-A Columbus.

Head, 28, posted a solid .864 OPS and 24 home runs in 114 games at the Triple-A level this season, earning a couple of promotions to the major leagues. But he won't have a major league roster spot to open 2012.

Jerad Head - OF - Nationals

Indians purchased the contract of OF Jerad Head from Triple-A Columbus.

The Tribe wanted another body for the outfield after Trevor Crowe went down with a shoulder injury. Head went 2-for-23 (.087) at the plate earlier this season with the Indians and doesn't figure to see much playing time over the final few games.

Jerad Head - OF - Nationals

Jerad Head went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in the loss to the Athletics on Thursday.

The Indians opted to keep Head around for a longer look when they needed a roster spot earlier this week. So far, he's gone 1-for-15 with four strikeouts and no walks. He's already 28, so this is probably going to be his only chance to capitalize on a major league opportunity. It needs to happen soon.

Jerad Head - OF - Nationals

Indians purchased the contract of OF Jerad Head from Triple-A Columbus.

Head, 27, was having a nice year at Columbus, batting .284/.338/.526 with 24 homers and 70 RBI over 422 at-bats. He's capable of playing all over the diamond but will be used as outfield depth for the injury-riddled Tribe.
