Coco Crisp: Will become free agent
Coco Crisp will not have his option picked up by the Indians, thus making him a free agent, Paul Hoynes of Cleveland.com reports.Crisp was a serviceable outfielder for the Indians following his arrival from Oakland, although $13 million was too big of a price to pay to keep the veteran around for another season. The 37-year-old has lost a step, but his solid contact abilities could help him garner a major league spot this offseason.

Indians' Coco Crisp: Leading off Saturday
Coco Crisp will DH and bat leadoff Saturday against the Marlins.Crisp will face a tough task is his first game back with the Cleveland Indians (with whom he spent the first four years of his major league career) in Marlins ace Jose Fernandez. It looks like the 36-year-old will only play on a part-time basis with Cleveland, but if he continues batting leadoff when he does start, Crisp may have some appeal as a punt play in daily leagues.

Coco Crisp was added to Cleveland's active roster Thursday.Crisp has gone just 4-for-28 (.179) over the last 14 games, bringing his batting average down to just .234 for the year. It's unlikely that his performance at the plate is enough to upstage any of Cleveland's starting outfielders, so look for Crisp to simply add depth to the roster and be used when regular starters are given a day off.
