Giants place Melancon on 15-day DL

SEATTLE -- Indians manager Terry Francona detailed the way his team's Opening Day roster would look over the course of the past week. Prior to Thursday's season opener against the Mariners, Cleveland made things official with a series of roster moves.

The Indians purchased the contracts of outfielder Rajai Davis and reliever Matt Belisle, who were in camp as non-roster invitees. Cleveland also placed left fielder Michael Brantley (right ankle rehab), right-hander Danny Salazar (right shoulder rotator cuff tendinitis), infielder Gio Urshela (right hamstring strain) and lefty Ryan Merritt (left knee sprain) on the 10-day disabled list.
