CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Indians will soon be getting some more outfield help.
Not from Michael Brantley. The Tribe says he's making progress from his shoulder surgery, but they are being careful. No timetables are being given.
But Abraham Almonte can start playing in minor league games on June 21.
He can return to the Tribe on July 3, when his 80-game suspension for flunking a test for PEDs ends.
Almonte is in Goodyear, Arizona. He has been allowed to play in extended spring training games and to work out with the young players who are at the Tribe's spring training complex.
