View Article  Indians Exercise Options on Trio

The Cleveland Indians today announced the club has exercised the 2008 club options on RHP Joe Borowski, RHP Paul Byrd & LHP Aaron Fultz.

Borowski, 36, compiled a career-high 45 saves on his way to leading the American League in saves in 2007.  Joe became just the 2nd Indian to ever lead the AL outright in saves, joining Jose Mesa (46 saves) in 1995 as his 45 saves were tied for the 2nd highest single-season total in club history.   Joe converted a season-high 13 straight save chances from May 20 to July 3 and from May 20 thru the end of the season he posted saves in 33 of 39 opportunities.

Byrd, 36, went 15-8 with a 4.59 ERA in 31 starts (2SHO, 192.1IP, 239H, 98ER, 28BB, 88K) in his second season in Cleveland in 2007.  His 15 wins finished tied for 11th in the American League and were his highest total since 2002 with KC (17W).  He led the AL in walks per 9.0IP (1.31), was tied for 11th with a .652 win % and tied for 1st with 2 CG/shutouts. 

Fultz, 34, posted a record of 4-3 w/a 2.92 ERA in 49 games (37.0IP, 31H, 12ER, 18BB, 28K) in 2007, his first year with the Indians.
