GOODYEAR, Ariz. — Mike Napoli felt back home on Wednesday, walking around a clubhouse he knew and catching up with teammates he enjoys.
Everyone involved knows this reunion between Napoli and the Cleveland Indians most likely is just temporary and will end up with Napoli playing elsewhere.
"It came together pretty quick," Napoli said Wednesday after signing a minor league deal. "Talking with my agent and he said there would be an opportunity to come in here to camp. Obviously we had conversations about the roster and what is going on. I'm very fortunate this organization has given me the opportunity to come here and get into shape and kind of showcase a little bit.
