GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- The Indians dealt Jayson Nix the Blue Jays on Tuesday, receiving cash in return.

The 28-year-old infielder/outfielder hit .176 in 12 Cactus League games with the Indians, after which he was informed that he would not be making the Opening Day roster.

Barring a deal, Nix stood to be designated for assignment by Cleveland, a team for which he batted .234 with 13 homers and 29 RBIs in 78 games last season after being claimed on waivers on June 24 from the White Sox.

Nix trade to #BlueJays opens up second spot on #Indians 40man roster to add Buck, Hannahan, Everrett, & Germano. Two more moves needed.

It doesn't look hard to me:

Rondon goes back on the 60-day DL.
Trevor Crowe probably does, too.
If not, release Jared Goedert.

Mission accomplished.

Still wish we could put together a package of a few of our Nobodies and trade them for one of somebody else's Maybes.

Indians place Crowe and Goedert on 60day DL. Those are the last two moves to create 40man openings

I wouldn't shed too many tears if Duncan is a roster casualty.

Also Jess Todd, who despite having a decent spring, isn't someone I would really miss either.

Hello everyone. I've been gone for a couple years but now I'm back. Uncle Dennis re-connected me so you can either thank him or curse him. Looking forward to reading everyone's insights on the Tribe as we navigate the year.
