CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Grady Sizemore is back at Indians camp.
He's no longer on the injury recovery trail, though. The Indians have hired the former All-Star center fielder as an advisor to the player development department.
Sizemore, who played for Cleveland from 2004-11, will assist the Tribe's big-league coaching staff for a few weeks before switching over to minor-league camp in March. During the regular season, Sizemore will serve as a special assistant, with both on-field and off-the-field responsibilities.
A three-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove Award winner, Sizemore totaled 139 home runs, 216 doubles and 134 stolen bases during his eight-year tenure with the Indians.
