Via MLBTR, the Indians have claimed reliever Shane Lindsay off waivers from the Yanks, who designated him for assignment last week to make room on the 40-man roster for Chad Gaudin. The Yanks claimed Lindsay off waivers from the Rockies just over two weeks ago, releasing the opt-injured Chris Garcia to fit him on the roster. He never appeared in a game during his time with the organization, instead hanging out in Extended Spring Training to trying to harness the upper-90’s heat that made him Colorado’s number 23 prospect before the season.

    He was a jinx. Good riddance.

    What becomes of Garcia? Doesn’t he have a certain number of days in which no team claims him for him to be returned to the Yanks? Where is he in that process?

      He’s gone, he’s a free agent.
