Indians activate Carrasco, R. Perez and Tomlin from 60-Day DL; Claim RHP Blake Wood from Royals

The Cleveland Indians today activated RHP CARLOS CARRASCO, LHP RAFAEL PEREZ and RHP JOSH TOMLIN from the 60-day Disabled List.

Also today the Indians claimed RHP BLAKE WOOD off outright waivers from the Kansas City Royals, bringing the total number of players under control on the 40-man roster to 38.

Wood, 27, missed the entire 2012 season after experiencing right elbow soreness in spring training that eventually led to reconstructive surgery on May 25. The Georgia Tech alum was KC’s 3rd round pick in the 2006 draft and owns a 2-year Major League career record of 6-6 w/a 4.30 ERA in 106 relief appearances (119.1IP, 120H, 57ER). The hard-throwing right-hander was a mainstay in the KC ‘pen in 2011, going 5-3 with a 3.75 ERA in 55 games (69.2IP, 66H, 29ER, 32BB, 62K).
