The Indians are expected to release Rafael Perez.

Perez is arbitration-eligible and is almost certain to be non-tendered. He appeared in just eight games last season due to a shoulder injury that required surgery in September. After making $2 million in 2012, it's possible Perez could be brought back on an incentive-based contract.
