 | | Westbrook, who became an All-Star and won a team-high 14 games last season after switching from the bullpen, agreed to a $7.5 million, two-year contract with the Indians on Monday and avoided salary arbitration. |
 | | Westbrook went 0-3 over a span of six starts from June 19 to July 15, but he bounced back by winning five straight decisions. |
 | | With Westbrook, Sabathia, Lee, and newly signed Kevin Millwood, the Indians think they have a starting nucleus capable of keeping them in contention in the AL Central. |
