Otero seeks rebound as Indians open spring camp
Dan Otero, once a strong Oakland reliever, works to regain form in Cleveland after a down 2015. He debuted in spring, competing for bullpen spots amid questions about his past success and a switch back to major league readiness. Otero grows optimistic about tweaks and getting back to 2013-14 levels. He grew up in Miami with Cuban heritage and awaits Spring Training updates as the Indians reflect on Brantley’s rehab and early-season plans.

Kluber’s Uphill Path From Triple-A to Cleveland Ace
Kluber reflects on a 2015 season below his 2014 peak with an ERA higher than that standout year. He went 9-16 and missed the All Star team, stressing pressure comes from self expectation and team goals. Acquired in 2010 in a three team trade, he rose from Triple-A in 2011-12 to 2013 11-5 with 3.85 ERA and a landmark 2014. Indians manager Terry Francona backs Kluber as the anchor of the rotation.
