The 38-year-old has spent the past two weeks at Cleveland's training facility in Goodyear, Ariz., preparing to play after not being in a training camp. Damon, who needs 277 hits to reach 3,000 for his career, is expected to split playing time with Shelley Duncan in left field. |

The club has been in talks to finalize a deal with the 38-year-old, who is 277 hits shy of 3,000. In a text to the Associated Press, Damon said: ``It should be done soon.'' Analysis: Damon played with Tampa Bay - his sixth AL team - last season, batting .261 with 16 homers and 73 RBIs in 150 games. Damon would probably need some time to get ready after not being in a spring training camp. If Damon signs, the Indians would be his fourth team in four years. Cleveland is off to a 1-4 start and entered Thursday batting .178, the majors' lowest average. The Indians begin a three-game series in Kansas City on Friday. |
