The winter meetings are over but the Indians are by no means done making moves, as this morning Ken Rosenthal reports the team has come to terms on a minor league deal with outfielder/third basemen Melvin Upton Jr.
Upton hasn’t played since 2016 when he was with the Padres and Jays, and that season he hit 20 homers and batted a combined .238.
The 12-year vet is best known for his eight seasons playing in Tampa for the Rays. His best season saw him hit .246 with 28 homers and 78 RBI in 2012.
