Indians Sign Rincon, Graffanino

By Tim Dierkes [June 24, 2008 at 10:53am CST]

According to Anthony Castrovince at MLB.com, the Indians have signed reliever Juan Rincon and infielder Tony Graffanino to minor league deals.

Rincon, 29, lost effectiveness in August of '06 and pretty much never recovered.  It's easy to try to tie his decline to his May '05 performance enhancing drug suspension, but he was solid for the rest of that season.

Graffanino, 35, is trying to work his way back from knee and ACL surgeries.
