Indians, Velosano Top 3 Million by Jordan Bastian / MLB.Com | @Mlbastian | November 6Th, 2015 + 0 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- the Indians Began Biking for a Cure Last Year Indians, Velosano top 3 million By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | November 6th, 2015 + 0 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- The Indians began biking for a cure last year. Two summers and a pair of charity rides later, the team has helped raise a wealth of funds for cancer research. During a celebration event for Cleveland's now-annual VeloSano bicycling event on Thursday night, the organization revealed it had raised just north of $2.9 million. Indians team owner and chairman Paul Dolan, who is the co-chairman of VeloSano and rode in the charity race in July, made the announcement at the banquet. A donor then stepped forward to make this year's total an even $3 million. The Indians had nearly 60 riders in this summer's race and raised $135,000 for the event, representing the third-highest total among the participating teams. All donations go to Cleveland Clinic to aid in cancer research and treatment. "It's a natural extension of our relationship with the Cleveland Clinic," Dolan said prior to last year's bike event. "For us, it's an effort to use the Cleveland Indians brand to support one of our key partners, the Cleveland Clinic, an iconic Cleveland institution. To work together, along with other Cleveland companies, to raise money to cure cancer -- no better cause than that." Tribe makes tweaks to 40-man roster By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | November 7th, 2015 + 5 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- The Indians made a handful of roster moves on Saturday, altering their 40-man roster and adding their first invitee for Spring Training. Cleveland activated lefties Nick Hagadone and TJ House from the 60-day disabled list and re-signed pitcher Joe Colon to a Minor League contract that includes an invitation to attend Spring Training with the big league club. The Indians also outrighted catcher Adam Moore, who elected to become a free agent. The Tribe now has 37 players on its 40-man roster. Hagadone and House both missed time last season with arm woes. Hagadone fractured his left elbow in July, which required surgery, while House dealt with a left shoulder issue that limited him to nine games between the Majors and Minors. Hagadone is on pace to resume light throwing within the next few weeks and House has resumed game activity, logging three innings over two games with Scottsdale in the Arizona Fall League last month. In 36 games before his injury last season, the 29-year-old Hagadone turned in a 4.28 ERA with 28 strikeouts and 12 walks in 27 1/3 innings. He has a 4.72 ERA in 143 career games with the Indians over parts of five seasons. House gets Donaldson out House gets Donaldson out 4/30/15: TJ House strands a runner when he gets Josh Donaldson to ground out, ending the top of the 3rd inning House, 26, had a strong rookie showing in 2014, posting a 3.35 ERA over 19 games (102 innings) for the Indians, and earned a spot in the Opening Day rotation last season. The lefty went 0-4 with a 13.15 ERA in four starts (13 innings) for Cleveland and spent most of the remainder of the season rehabbing his shoulder. Colon, 25, was a 12th-round pick by the Indians in the 2009 Draft and has a 3.50 ERA in 124 games in the Tribe's system over the past six years. The righty made the switch from starting to relieving in 2015 and turned in a 3.14 ERA in 33 games between Double-A Akron and Triple- A Columbus. Over 48 2/3 innings, Colon had 47 strikeouts and 14 walks. Moore, 31, joined the Indians on a Minor League contract last winter and spent 92 games with Columbus, hitting .282 and cutting down would- be basestealers at a 34-percent clip. He was promoted to Cleveland in September to serve as the third catcher, but appeared in only one game. Inbox: Will Santana be back with Tribe? By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | November 6th, 2015 + 80 COMMENTS What are the odds we see Carlos Santana on the Indians next year? -- Alex Y., Beachwood, Ohio Santana has become, without a doubt, the most polarizing player on Cleveland's roster among Indians fans. His batting average (.231 in 2015) leaves plenty to be desired, but his blend of power and patience still makes him a valuable -- not to mention above average -- player for the Tribe. Consider this: Santana joined Jose Bautista, Paul Goldschmidt and Bryce Harper as the only players in 2015 with at least 15 homers, 85 RBIs and 100 walks. Santana led the Indians in all three categories, too. The switch-hitter also put up a 110 weighted runs created plus, meaning his overall offensive production was 10 percent better than league average. One of the knocks over the years has been that Santana does not come through in the clutch. This past season, he actually had a 132 wRC+ with runners in scoring position, and his .863 OPS with RISP was second on the team to only Michael Brantley (.913). Santana, who will turn 30 in April, is slated to earn $8.25 million in 2016, making him Cleveland's highest-paid player. That is good value for a player of his skill set. The Indians would probably be best served holding on to him, especially if he buys into working as a designated hitter as often or more often than as a first baseman. So as of right now, I'd say that Santana will be with the Tribe come Opening Day. That said, I also think Cleveland would be more than willing to listen to trade offers for him, especially if the team wants to avoid trading away a starting pitcher in order to upgrade the offense. If the Dodgers are really going to shop outfielder Yasiel Puig, is he a realistic target for the Tribe? -- Zach W., Dayton, Ohio Puig is young (24) and under control for the next three seasons at an affordable cost ($24.6 million overall). That fits the kind of player you'd expect the Indians to target in trade talks, given that the team isn't in a position to be a major player in free agency. So I'd expect the Indians to inquire about Puig at the very least. Would you be willing to part with one of Cleveland's talented starting pitchers? That might be the price. Do you think the Indians should go after Justin Upton or Jason Heyward? -- @JBlyer27 (via Twitter) Do I think they should? Yes, but I don't expect it to happen. The Indians have some financial wiggle room, but not enough right now to go after the top-tier free agents. The Royals have shown us that a mid-market team can win. What have they done in the last two years that the Indians haven't? -- @shlawallace (via Twitter) The biggest difference over the past two years overall has been the defense. The Royals had 96 Defensive Runs Saved compared to minus-57 for the Indians across the 2014-15 seasons combined. The good news for Cleveland is that the '15 version (18 DRS) improved dramatically in the field, closing the gap some on the Royals in the second half. Beyond that, Kansas City has featured a better bullpen and a slightly better offense. As for starting pitching, Cleveland (33.1 fWAR) has had the edge over K.C. (19.1) by a lot. Is the Indians' 2016 center fielder currently on the 40-man roster? -- Mike D., Cleveland To be honest, I'm not sure. The Indians believe Brantley could slide to center field in the event that the team adds to the offense via left field, but the preference is to keep him in left. Abraham Almonte played admirably in center in the second half for the Tribe, but he projects better as a fourth outfielder. I think the Indians will try to find a new center fielder externally this offseason. Do you think the Indians will re-sign Gavin Floyd as depth? He pitched pretty well in September after coming back from his elbow injury. -- @1st_and_punt (via Twitter) If Floyd is back with the Indians, I'd wager it would be on a Minor League contract with a spring invite. Cleveland has a solid front four in the rotation, a pair of fifth-starter candidates in Josh Tomlin and Cody Anderson, and lefty TJ House still in the fold. Floyd (2.70 ERA in 13 1/3 innings) did pitch well in his brief bullpen stint in the final month, but I don't think it was enough to hand him a Major League deal. How likely is it that the Indians retain Mike Aviles? It seems like Jose Ramirez could replace him as a super utility player, but it does seem like Aviles gives the team that "veteran presence." -- Andrew F., Minneapolis I think Ramirez's performance down the stretch (.775 OPS last 50 games) helped convince Cleveland that he could indeed fill that kind of utility role. Ramirez switch-hits, offers speed off the bench and can fill in around the infield and in left field. Aviles brought a lot to the Indians over the past few years -- especially in the clubhouse -- but I'm not sure there will be a spot for him on the roster. Is Progressive Field where left-handed power hitters go to die? Hey, Hoynsie Paul Hoynes, cleveland.com CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Do you have a question that you'd like to have answered in Hey, Hoynsie?
