CLEVELAND -- The Indians will carry two catchers and two left-handed relievers on their ALCS roster against Toronto.For its matchup with the Blue Jays, Cleveland added rookie lefty Ryan Merritt and dropped catcher Chris Gimenez, who was on the roster for the division series sweep of Boston but didnt play. Without Gimenez, Roberto Perez and Yan Gomes will handle the catching duties.Gomes has made a remarkable recovery from a broken hand sustained in September to be ready for the ALDS. He had been expected to miss up to two months, but Gomes worked his way back and said the fracture has healed enough that he can play.Gimenez and Gomes were the last two players to leave the field Thursday as the Indians worked out before Fridays series opener. Both catchers took turns throwing to third and second in what may have been a final test to make sure Gomes was OK.Merritt spent the ALDS in Arizona, where he and several other Indians pitchers threw bullpen sessions and simulated games. Merritt gives Indians manager Terry Francona a second lefty option put of the bullpen along with Andrew Miller, who shut down the Red Sox in two appearances.Merritt pitched five innings in his first major league start against Kansas City on Sept. 30. Hes gone 13-8 with a 3.79 ERA over the past two seasons at Triple-A Columbus.Indians starter Danny Salazar remains sidelined with forearm tightness. The club had hoped he might be available for the ALCS, but Francona said the right-hander isnt quite there. ...

Datsyuk will miss Tuesdays game against New Jersey and could be sidelined longer, while Cleary will likely miss at least the next three games. Its been an injury-plagued season for Datsyuk, who has suited up for just 39 games. Dev... Harris Mavericks Jersey .C. at the helm of the top team in the Eastern Conference. His tenure as the GM in Vancouver was all too brief. Though he led the Canucks to what was then a franchise record-shattering campaign in just his second season, Nonis was gone and replaced one year later. INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indiana Pacers will welcome a familiar face to Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Monday night, as former head coach Frank Vogel and the Orlando Magic will be in town. Vogel coached the Pacers for the previous six seasons. He holds the most wins in franchise history and compiled the second-best winning percentage for any Pacers head coach (.580).Larry Bird made a somewhat surprising move in the offseason, replacing Vogel with Nate McMillan. Both teams are off to slow starts this season, as they each enter Monday night with a 4-6 record. But Vogels Magic just took down the Thunder on Sunday and are hoping to build off that victory.For the most part, Vogel was well-liked in Indianapolis, and the fans should respond accordingly.I think Frank will get a great reaction, said McMillan. The fans will be able to show their appreciation for all that he contributed here.Itll be great, Paul George told the Indianapolis Star. Im sure itll be an emotional moment for himself and for our crowd.Vogel agrees. I have a lot of strong ties still there, he told the Orlando Sentinel. Some of my best basketball moments of my life were coaching the Pacers.The Pacers had aspirations of being a top team in the Eastern Conference this season, but have struggled to find their identity in the early going. Theyre coming off an uninspiring week in which they played two overtime games with Philadelphia, including one loss, and their first home loss of the season on Saturday night against Boston.dddddddddddd.Indiana is hoping to have George back in action. He missed Saturdays game with a sprained ankle.Scoring has not been the issue for the Pacers, as theyve averaged 108.4 points per game so far, good enough for fifth in the NBA.The opposite has been true for Orlando. Coming into Sunday night, the Magic were last in the NBA at 92.3 points per game. They exploded for 119 points in the win over Oklahoma City. They were led by Serge Ibaka, who scored 31 points and hit the game-winning shot against his former team.Im not going to lie to you, it felt good, Ibaka said after the game.The Magic were able to withstand Russell Westbrooks monster night (41 points, 16 assists, 12 rebounds) in the win.Both of these teams are among the NBAs worst in team defensive rating. They both are giving up over 108 points per 100 possessions, which is rare for one of Vogels teams. It will be an intriguing matchup for two teams that are both searching for their own identity.The Magic will be without Jodie Meeks (fractured fifth metatarsal) and the Pacers will be without Rodney Stuckey (right hamstring strain.)Indiana went 2-1 against the Magic last season and have won 11 of the last 13 meetings overall. Monday will be the first of four matchups between these teams this season.
