40 Man Roster Additions In; The O DAWG?!
The Tribe Daily —
They surely waited around long enough. It wasn't till about 9:30-10:00 last night that the Indians let their choices be known for the 40 man roster.

They added just five prospects to their 40 man roster, leaving one spot open. For what? A move, I guess. They need the wiggle room in case they make a move, right? right! Wrong. Is keeping ...
