68 of those guys are 33 and older.
Pick the best 25 man roster from that list and is it even a .500 team?
Brantley is always hurt, Chissenhaul is only good for a half a season, and Zimmer is young and fell off a cliff before his injury. And the bottom of the rotation is always up for grabs.Why would the Indians target Starting Pitching and left handed OFers?

Clevinger should be locked into a rotation spot. I don't think there's any chance he's not in our rotation, and as long as he enters and exits spring training healthy, Salazar will have a spot as well.
Tomlin should start the season in the bullpen.
I think Ryan Merritt's only shot to avoid getting DFA'd is to catch on in the bullpen. as a long man/loogy.
I also don't think Upton has much of a shot at all of making this team. Brandon Guyer will be given first crack as a platoon player out there, and Greg Allen is probably next up.
