The Cleveland Indians have designated Jerry Sands for assignment, according to the team’s twitter account. The team has also reinstated Carlos Santana from the paternity list.
Sands, 27, posted a slash line of .375/.444/.583 with one home run in 27 plate appearances for the tribe. This is the second time this season that the Indians have designated Sands for assignment.
Santana was placed on the paternity list after his daughter was born on Thursday. Players are allowed to miss 24-72 hours.
