Indians Acquire Nick Goody

By Jeff Todd | December 20, 2016 at 1:01pm CDT

The Indians have acquired righty Nick Goody from the Yankees, both clubs announced. New York will receive a player to be named later or cash considerations.

Goody, 25, had been designated for assignment by the Yanks to make way for the addition of Aroldis Chapman. Now, he’ll occupy the final open spot on Cleveland’s 40-man roster.

The slider-heavy reliever struggled with the long ball last year, allowing seven dingers in 29 innings while working to a 4.66 ERA. But he did produce 10.6 K/9, with a robust 15.0% swinging-strike rate, along with 3.7 BB/9. Goody has also posted some rather notable figures in the upper minors of late. In parts of two years at the Triple-A level, he owns a 1.64 ERA with 12.3 K/9 against 2.2 BB/9.

    It appears that Tomo Ohka may have been asking for too much, so the Indians deftly moved onto “Plan B”. Larry Dolan is one shrewd owner….Bob Nutting, your move next.

      Nutting is tapped out after paying 2/11 for Hudson. He will command more payroll cuts.

        So, McCutchen, Jameson Tallion, and Austin Meadows to the Blue Jays for Reggie Pruitt and a PTBNL?

    Callaway will fix his issues. Any pitcher the Indians signed since he’s been there has turned the corner. To me Callaway is the reason the Indians have the or close to the top pitching staff in the league. He’s one hell of a pitching coach. Go Tribe!! I’m

    Random question, if Goody sucks, can he be named the PTBNL? Probably not, but I don’t know.

      I’m not sure if the rule changed, but I know that the Mets did that with a catcher named Harry Chiti in the early 60s
