Troy Renck of the Denver Post reports that Jason Giambi is close to signing a minor league deal with the Indians.
The deal would come with an invitation to spring training and an actual chance at making the major league roster. Giambi hit just .225/.372/.303 with one home run and eight RBI in 113 plate appearances with the Rockies in 2012. He could still be valuable as a source of left-handed power off the bench.
