Just In From the Desert

Yay, Derek Lowe can still throw a baseball.  That's something...

The Tribe made two minor moves today.  LHP Kelvin De La Cruz (#21 on my top prospect list) was traded to Texas for cash.  He had been DFAed earlier in the month when Casey Kotchman was added.

Also, two-time All-Star shortstop Cristian Guzman joined camp and took a physical.  The 33-year old sat out 2011 rehabbing a sore right shoulder.  He has a strong relationship with Manny Acta from the time that they shared together with Washington and is expected to be offered a contract tomorrow.

Cheers.
