Indians inch toward 1998 with cautious McDonald plan
The Indians will not rush Ben McDonald into spring. A rotator cuff injury last season and rehab overexertion leave him unlikely to be ready for the opener. Pitching coach Mark Wiley says they will protect him for the long haul while Jose Mesa remains the closer.

Ogea Overcomes Injury to Excel in Postseason Showdown
Cleveland Indians pitcher Ogea recalls a knee and elbow scare after a strain sidelining him, yet he returned to post five playoff appearances with a 2 2 ERA of 2.32. He pitched more innings than any staff member, striking back in World Series Games 2 and 6 while driving in two runs in a 41 victory. He credits focus, basic routines, and a developing breaking ball added to his fastball and changeup as keys to his rebound.
