Indians Activate SS Francisco Lindor, DFA Hanley Ramirez
CLEVELAND – The Indians today have their franchise player back, as the team activated shortstop Francisco Lindor from the injured list.
Lindor first injured his ankle early in camp on February 8th, and suffered a setback with an ankle injury on March 27th.
He appeared in a couple rehab games this past week, and the team felt he was good enough to bring up to the Major League roster.
With AAA Columbus Lindor went 5-for-12 (.417) with a double, two home runs and two RBI.
He is not in the lineup for game one of today’s doubleheader for the Indians as they take on the Atlanta Braves.
With Lindor up, the team has sent Hanley Ramirez packing, designating him for assignment.
