Carlos Carrasco - S - Cleveland Indians

Indians manager Terry Francona has been impressed with what he's seen from Carlos Carrasco thus far in spring training.

The 25-year-old missed the entire 2012 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery, but has looked strong early in camp and is a legitimate candidate to win the final spot in the Tribe's rotation. He'll likely have to beat out Daisuke Matsuzaka, David Huff and Trevor Bauer to secure his spot.
