News: The Indians exercised their option on utility infielder Jamey Carroll for the 2009 season. Carroll, acquired in December in a trade with Colorado for a minor league pitcher, batted .277 and played 113 games for the Indians. He hit 13 doubles, four triples, one homer, scored 60 runs and drove in 36. Carroll has a .273 career average in seven major league seasons.
Analysis: Carroll is nothing more than a veteran reserve infielder for the Indians and the deepest of AL-only leagues at this point in his career. His line asset is his versatility. He doesn't hit for power or steal bases
