SAN DIEGO — After being released by the Twins last weekend, Juan Rincon today signed a minor-league deal with the Cleveland Indians.

He will throw a bullpen session today at Progressive Field (the ballpark formerly known as Jacobs Field) and then report to Class AAA Buffalo.

Cleveland has had bullpen issues all season, and they’re hoping Rincon can rediscover his form. He went 2-2 with a 6.11 ERA for the Twins this season.

The Indians also signed infielder Tony Graffanino to a minor-league deal.
