The southpaw carousel continues.
The southpaw carousel continues.
Nick Swisher will miss at least tonight's game, so Phelps is up to provide some infield backup.
Pestano will likely be back tonight, the Indians are back in first place, and a network update.
Just when you thought you've seen the last of David Huff, here he is again!
After nearly four weeks on the Disabled List, Michael Bourn has been activated and should be in the lineup tomorrow night in Detroit.
Obviously something changed between yesterday and today, for Vinnine Pestano has been placed on the DL with elbow tendonitis.

LGFT Ezequiel Carrera is brought back to serve as a short-term patch in the outfield.
Trevor Bauer is going to get a second start.
The Indians have made their choice for today's 26th man, but they also made an unexpected roster move.
The Indians now have their Opening Day catching duo back together again.
With apologies to Frosty.
The full extent of Brett Myers' injury isn't known yet, but we do know that he'll miss at least the next two weeks. We also know that Corey Kluber will take Myers' spot in the rotation.
Scott Kazmir will finally make his Cleveland debut tonight, while Phelps' stay in Cleveland was a short one.
Another day, another transaction.
In what has become an almost daily event, the Indians have made yet another series of roster moves.
The Indians trade baseball's best mustache for some minor-league catching depth.
Whew! When the Indians announce moves, they come in bunches, don't they?
With two dinged catchers, the Indians had to call up both Columbus catchers.
The Indians have claimed Robert Whitenack on waivers from the Chicago Cubs.
You know how I said that the Indians were injury-free going into the regular season. Go ahead and blame me for this one.
So ends the dreams of getting a return for Ezequiel Carrera.
It's been obvious for some time that Chris McGuiness wasn't to make the Opening Day roster, but there was some hope held out for the Indians to work out a trade with Texas to keep the first baseman in the organization.
The Indians have announced their Opening Day roster, though they'll make a couple of changes after the season begins.
The Indians have never been shy about being creative with their roster management. The trend continues with this latest move.
The Indians are slowly but surely paring down their active roster.
