Indians recall Allen to bolster ailing outfield

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Indians continue to scour the trade market for possible solutions to their thinning outfield. In the meantime, Cleveland has promoted center fielder Greg Allen to help shore up a cast that is down three players to injury.

Allen spent the past couple of days with the Indians in Detroit, but due to other roster complications, he was not officially recalled from Triple-A Columbus until prior to Monday's game against the Twins. With Allen back from the Minors, Cleveland's outfield has been patched together for the time being, but the front office will keep searching for reinforcements prior to Tuesday's 4 p.
