Ben McLemore had an amazing 2012-13 campaign. After learning the ropes of the college game during his redshirt year in 2011-12, he electrified the Kansas offense as a freshman.

The Cleveland Indians are in first place in the American League Central and may be a club that looks to add to their roster to make a deep run for a playoff spot this season. They could use some starting pitching, and perhaps another reliever, too.
