The Indians have picked up 28-year old righty starting pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez’ option for the 2013 season valued at $5.75 million bucks.  Jimenez pitched in 31 games (all starts) for the Indians last year and he was 9-17 (most losses in majors) with a 5.40 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP.  He has now pitched in 42 games (all starts) in his first two years with the Indians and he is 13-21 with a 5.32 ERA and a 1.57 WHIP.  Jimenez has now pitched in 180 games (179 starts) in his first seven years in the majors and he is 69-66 with a 4.03 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP.  Manager Terry Francona must think that his pitching coach can fix Jimenez, as he was a good pitcher before coming to Cleveland.
