GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Commissioner Rob Manfred arrives in Phoenix on Tuesday and will be talking to executives and managers over the next few days.

Manfred has been taking heat from players throughout the big leagues for his handling of the Houston Astros’ sign-stealing scandal. No Houston players were penalized even though MLB’s investigators found they were electronically stealing signs in 2017 and 2018.

Players, including Indians right-hander Mike Clevinger, have suggested that Astros hitters could face retaliation during games. Manfred told ESPN on Sunday that any pitcher who throws at a Houston player, or any other player, will be severely reprimanded. Manfred said he sent out a memorandum to all teams to inform them that penalties will be increased.

Manager Terry Francona was asked about Manfred’s statement following the Tribe’s first full-squad workout on Monday.

“I can guarantee you we’re just going to try to win games,” said Francona. “We’re not in the retaliation business. Whether guys have hard feelings or not, we need to try to — they’re a good enough team, you don’t need to be putting guys on base.”

No. 1: Franmil Reyes hits them a long way

When batting practice started Monday, Franmil Reyes was in left field. He caught one ball going back and caught a line drive coming in.

Each time a ball was hit to him, shortstop Francisco Lindor, waiting for his turn at bat, yelled good-naturedly at his teammate. The 6-5, 265-pound Reyes looks like a made-to-order DH, but the Indians want to see if he can play the outfield. They know his best position is right field, but Francona is testing him left field as well this spring.

“We’re just having fun,” said Lindor. "It’s been a while since we’ve spent time together. I’ve missed the guys. You know what it’s like when you miss somebody. You show them some love at the beginning and then you all get on each other.”

Reyes hit 37 homers for San Diego and Cleveland last year. The Indians are looking forward to seeing what he can do for in their lineup for a full season.

“I don’t know if you saw BP today, but he nearly knocked the fence down,” said Chris Antonetti, president of baseball operations. “I think he hit a ball to Peoria (Ariz.). He has a chance to be a game changer for our lineup with the power he can add.”

No. 2: New team, new start

The Indians made a deal with Tampa Bay to acquired infielder Christian Arroyo and right-hander Hunter Wood in July. Wood made 17 appearances for the Tribe, but Arroyo went straight to Goodyear, Ariz., to continue to rehab a right forearm injury.

Arroyo, 24, is healthy and will compete for a job as a utility infielder. He’ll see most of his time this spring at third base, while bouncing between second and short.

“This is the best I’ve felt in the last two or three years,” said Arroyo. “The last few years had been tough. Just a lot of freak (injuries) going on. I spent this offseason trying to focus on my health and come to camp healthy."

No. 3: The more power the better

The Indians signed Domingo Santana last week because they like the way he swings the bat.

“We like his offensive profile,” said Antonetti. “We think he’s got a chance to really help our lineup. He’s had a history of doing that in his major league career and we’ll give him an opportunity to help us in that way.”

Santana, who signed a one-year deal worth $1.5 million with a club option for 2021, hit .253 (114-for-451) with 21 homers and 69 RBI last year for Seattle. Santana drove in 30 runs in his first 31 games for the Mariners, but a right elbow injury wrecked what could have been a career season.

“He got off to an incredible start in the first half of last season,” said Antonetti. “He had some elbow issues and tried to play through them. It affected his performance for a bit. When you look up at the end of the year his total numbers didn’t stand out, but when he’s healthy he’s a very productive player. We hope we can put him in a position to be productive and healthy.”
