Shoppach signed, Aubrey outrighted
The Indians have avoided salary arbitration with Kelly Shoppach, who signed a one-year deal today. The Tribe has not gone to arbitration with a player since Jerry Browne and Greg Swindell in 1991.
Also today, Michael Aubrey, designated for assignment when Carl Pavano was signed last week, cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus. Aubrey will be a non-roster invitee to Spring Training camp.

Anthony, Are you surprised to see Aubrey clear waivers?
It’s too bad he’s left handed, maybe he coulda played third base.
Any word on the financial numbers of Shop’s deal? I know Cleveland is cash strapped but I’m curious as to what kind of money he got and how that reflects the commitment and expectations Shapiro has for Kelly.
Hey that you just very much to the article, it absolutely was fairly and informative go through! I’ll be again later on for sure.
