Indians agree i have a surplus of of and im always looking for cost control pitching and this was what i was looking for. Freeland was injured last season which i believe held him back from produceing more than he did. I also clear 2m off my cap space it might not seem much but every little helps.

Philly does this for more OF depth.  I think both these guys had down years last year and both can rebound.  I may be getting a little thin at pitching depth after this but I like the power potential of Grichuk.  With Brantley and Martinez getting older this will be a little insurance in case of injury.

Thanks Brian!
