Week(s) in Transactions: After Encarnacion

As it turned out, the Indians weren’t quite done with their 2016-2017 offseason. They’ve signed Brandon Guyer to a contract extension, signed Austin Jackson to a minor-league deal, and yesterday made a waiver claim that might end up helping them this season.

Transactions

January 10

Released LHP Edwin Escobar (signed with KBO)

Escobar was designated for assignment when the Indians added another EE (Edwin Encarnacion) to their roster. Escobar will get a better paycheck in Korea, and the exposure might help him when he returns to the States.

January 13

Signed Steve Delabar to a minor-league contract (NRI)

Delabar actually made an All-Star team while with Toronto in 2013 (meanwhile, Travis Hafner was never an All-Star).
